― Abigail Roux, Armed & Dangerous

“For me, literacy means freedom. For the individual and for society.”

“I was so comfortable. I was warm and cozy, in that blissful, dreamy place between asleep and awake...

Until my comfy pillow moved.

And the blanket keeping me warm moved.

I grumbled at them sleepily, and then my pillow and blanket chuckled.

I looked up, trying to make sense of my thoughts, and I saw him.

Cameron.

My pillow and blanket was Cameron; a half asleep, chuckling Cameron. I groaned and let my head fall back on his chest, his arms tightened around me. "I wondered why my pillow moved."

He chuckled again, and I could hear the sound resonate in my ear.”
― N.R. Walker, Sixty Five Hours
