“To this point, he could not really have said that he loved William. Feel the terror of responsibility for him, yes. Carry thought of him like a gem in his pocket, certainly, reaching now and then to touch it, marveling. But now he felt the perfection of the tiny bones of William’s spine through his clothes, smooth as marbles under his fingers, smelled the scent of him, rich with the incense of innocence and the faint tang of shit and clean linen. And thought his heart would break with love.”

“... eu corri para longe das pedras, parando no que achei que deveria ser uma distância segura. Não era. O som das pedras - um rugido desta vez, em vez de um som estridente - trovejou através de mim, parando minha respiração e quase meu coração também. Um círculo de dor apertou meu peito e eu caí de joelhos, cambaleando, impotente.
... e o interior de minha cabeça explodiu em fogo.
Muito tempo mais tarde, eu lentamente recobrei os sentidos, descendo das nuvens aos pedaços, como pedras de granizo. E me vi deitada, com a cabeça no colo de Jamie. E o ouvi dizer baixinho, para si mesmo e para mim:
- Por você, eu continuarei. Se fosse apenas por mim... eu não o faria.”

“Does it ever stop? The wanting you?" "Even when I've just left ye. I want you so much my chest feels tight and my fingers ache with wanting to touch ye again.”
