“You remind me of the greatest sculptors, who can turn marble into the impression of billowing silk, the coldest stone into something soft. I suppose what I'm trying to say is that everything you touch turns beautiful. The world becomes beautiful, as long as there's you.”

“The only thing I ask is that we don’t ever become strangers, because I really—” He breaks off. Clenches his jaw, fighting against some ineffable emotion. “I don’t think I could bear it, Leah. I don’t think my heart would be able to survive it.”

“And? Do I live up to your fantasy?"
Cyrus shakes his head. "No fantasy could ever live up to you," he whispers. "Nothing can compare to how it feels to look up and see you there. Even though I thought of you every day after you left, my imagination has proven to be painfully inadequate when it comes to the sound of your laughter, or how your brows furrow when you're focused, or the way you steady yourself before entering a room. And you're going to make fun of me for saying it, but part of me is worried," he says, dropping his gaze to the white glimmer of water, "that this is just a spell. This whole trip has been so strange and wonderful and unexpected ... It's like there's magic here, and I can't stop myself from worrying that when we leave this place, the magic will disappear for you, and none of it will be real anymore.”
― Ann Liang, Never Thought I'd End Up Here
