    “At a few minutes before four, Peeta turns to me again. "Your favorite colour . . . it's green?"
    "That's right." Then I think of something to add. "And yours is orange."
    "Orange?" He seems unconvinced.
    "Not bright orange. But soft. Like the sunset," I say. "At least, that's what you told me once."
    "Oh." He closes his eyes briefly, maybe trying to conjure up that sunset, then nods his head. "Thank you."
    But more words tumble out. "You're a painter. You're a baker. You like to sleep with the windows open. You never take sugar in your tea. And you always double-knot your shoelaces."
    Then I dive into my tent before I do something stupid like cry.”
    Suzanne Collins, Mockingjay

    John Green
    “Augustus Waters was a self-aggrandizing bastard. But we forgive him. We forgive him not because he had a heart as figuratively good as his literal one sucked, or because he knew more about how to hold a cigarette than any nonsmoker in history, or because he got eighteen years when he should've gotten more.'
    'Seventeen,' Gus corrected.
    'I'm assuming you've got some time, you interupting bastard.
    'I'm telling you,' Isaac continued, 'Augustus Waters talked so much that he'd interupt you at his own funeral. And he was pretentious: Sweet Jesus Christ, that kid never took a piss without pondering the abundant metaphorical resonances of human waste production. And he was vain: I do not believe I have ever met a more physically attractive person who was more acutely aware of his own physical attractiveness.
    'But I will say this: When the scientists of the future show up at my house with robot eyes and they tell me to try them on, I will tell the scientists to screw off, because I do not want to see a world without him.'
    I was kind of crying by then.”

    “A moment of reserve. "That was it? The whole story?"

    Pants. Oh heavens, that's cute.”

    “Most people in Atlanta don't have an accent. It's pretty urban. A lot of people speak gangsta, though," I add jokingly.
    "Fo' shiz," he replies in his polite English accent.
    I spurt orangey-red soup across the table. St. Clair gives a surprised ha-HA kind of laugh, and I'm laughing too, the painful kind like abdominal crunches. He hands me a napkin to wipe my chin. "Fo'. Shiz." He repeats it solemnly.
    Cough cough. "Please don't ever stop saying that. It's too-" I gasp. "Much."
    "You oughtn't to have said that. Now I shall have to save it for special occasions."
    "My birthday is in February." Cough choke wheeze. "Please don't forget.”

    “I trail my fingers across his cheek. He stays perfectly still for me. “Please stop apologizing, Étienne.”
    “Say my name again,” he whispers.
    I close my eyes and lean forward. “Étienne.”
    He takes my hands into his.Those perfect hands, that fit mine just so. “Anna?”
    Our foreheads touch. “Yes?”
    “Will you please tell me you love me? I’m dying here.”
    And then we’re laughing. And then I’m in his arms, and we’re kissing, at first quickly—to make up for lost time—and then slowly, because we have all
    the time in the world. And his lips are soft and honey sweet, and the careful, passionate way he moves them against my own says that he savors the way I
    taste, too.
    And in between kisses, I tell him I love him.
    Again and again and again.”
    Stephanie Perkins, Anna and the French Kiss
