“Sometimes our bodies take charge of us. My mom’s body just knew that she didn’t need to be prioritizing Carol in the last few months of her life. It helped her let go of that crappy relationship. And for you . . . your brain wanted to keep talking to Ethan tonight, but your body knew that it wasn’t the time. You got tired and had to leave. Maybe that’s your body taking care of you."

“The first person I ever wanted to sleep with was you. You pretty much are sex to me. So if you don’t mind . . . If it’s not too much trouble, maybe I’ll just enjoy myself a little, and if you need me to go faster, you can just tell me, okay?”
Well, who am I to argue?
“Oh, okay,” is my brilliant response.

I drift back to my desk and keep waiting for the stupidity to rush in. I’ve officially told Xaria to stop considering me for the highest-paying job I could possibly get with my level of education. I’ve officially said out loud that I want to go back to school. I’ve officially said out loud that I want . . . anything.
This feeling is terrifying and satisfying in equal parts.

A great thing about knowing what you want is that you can start racing towards it.

“We haven’t fed you yet.”
“Food is for losers. More kissing.” I reach for him and he obliges for all of three seconds.
“Let me feed you,” he says against my lips. I growl in frustration but also because it hurts to have your heart squeezed like that. “Oh, fine."

We’re quiet for a long moment. “Willa? No pressure, but if you ever wanted to talk about it . . .”
She sniffs, nods, and gives me a gift. She tells me everything.
i love them 😢

“To Shep,” she toasts. “Who did something really hard. Because he’s brave. And is deciding not to be afraid of failure.”
And I recognize it for what it is, it’s the lost half of Willa’s original toast. It’s her celebration of courage and failure and letting life beat you up because you decide to really try.

“Are you sure?” he asks again. He walks over to me and picks up my hand. He twiddles my two rings and then sets my hand back by my side and puts his hands back in his pockets. “Because you being comfortable in my house is pretty much the only criteria I’m currently using for picking a place.”
I nearly gasp for breath,
AAAAAAA SHEP YOU NEED TO STOP
