“Silent tears are the worst. It's the sign of a broken spirit. No sound, no residual emotions... just tears. Silent, unstoppable tears.”
“When I opened the door, Andrew was standing there like a remedy for heart palpitations. Or maybe he made them worse. It was hard to tell.”
“I think he won a tiny piece of my heart that day. If he didn't have the whole damn thing before then, he certainly had part of it now.”
“I'm surprised I could actually talk with how much I was grinning.”
“Maybe that's what I needed. Another tattoo. Some pain on the outside to ease the pain on the inside.”
“His hand lay across my stomach as he slept soundly. I entwined my fingers with his and breathed through the warmth that seeped through my chest. Such a simple, sweet thing to do, yet holding hands in bed was incredibly intimate.”

“They should love you, just as you are. Parents should love their kids, right?" "You'd think so.”
“And without my consent, with my defences in ruins, while my brain was sleeping, my stupid heart went and fell headfirst into love.”

“I kissed him softly and left my lips pressed to his for a few beats of my heart.”
