“Georgie took out her phone. 'I want to take a picture of you two.' She held up her phone and motioned for us to get together.
Darcy and I lined up against the railing. 'No, I need you closer together to get you both in the photo,' she instructed.
I had taken countless pictures on the waterfront and I knew that if you were getting the skyline in the background, you didn't need to be that close.
Darcy put his arm around my shoulder and we leaned in. I slipped my arm around his waist and I noticed how easily I fit into the little nook on his side.
'Oh, hold on, I'm having problems.' Georgie played with her phone for a few moments while we just stood there in our posed embrace.
'Georgie...'
She looked up at her brother and blushed. 'Um, I think it works now.”

“You and me?” I let out a stunned bark of laughter. “There is no you and me.”

“That’s what you think,” Chaz says, tugging on his coat. “And I’ll be damned if I’m going to wait around until you figure out that isn’t true.”

“Fine,” I say “I’m not asking you to, am I?”

“No.” Chaz is smiling… but not like he’s happy. “But you would if you had the slightest idea what was good for you.”

And with that, he yanks open the door and storms through it, slamming it closed behind him with enough force to cause the windowpanes to rattle.

And then he’s gone.”
― Meg Cabot, Queen of Babble Gets Hitched

“Yeah,” Chaz says. “You know, when you packed up all your stuff and left his ass high and dry, I thought finally. A woman with some moral fiber. Little did I know that all he’d need to win you back was a big diamond ring and few crocodile tears. I really expected bigger things from you, Lizzie. Tell me something. Are you going to wait until the invitations have actually gone out before you admit to yourself that Luke is that last guy you ought to be spending the rest of your life with? Or are you going to do the right thing and call if off now?”
― Meg Cabot, Queen of Babble Gets Hitched

“Il lettore che fosse sconcertato dalle mie impacciate descrizioni dovrebbe solo provare a chiudere gli occhi per non più di due minuti e scoprirebbe che, tutt'a un tratto, egli non è più un essere umano solido, bensì una pura coscienza immersa in un mare di sensazioni sonore e tattili; è solo quando abbiamo gli occhi aperti che torna la forma corporea, costruendosi saldamente attorno al nocciolo duro della vista.”
― Shirley Jackson, The Bird's Nest

“Don't stay out long or whatever a responsible adult would say. Wear a hat and what not."
