“I was still mad at her, but it felt different when I could see her than when I couldn't. Watching her took some of that anger away.”

“I think it has to do with the fact that I was in love with you, thought you might feel the same, almost kissed you, got my heart broken, thought I got over you, only to get broken again when I found out you're leaving.”

“You never know what's going to happen. You have to have faith. All the heartache I've felt is worth it. I've met Roger and I'm willing to risk the heartache because, not only do I think he's worth it, but I'm worth it.”

“Who would have known kissing someone you love was so much better than kissing other girls?”

“A laugh jumps out of my mouth, surprising me. I can’t even remember the last time I laughed and it puts me on edge. I suddenly want to do the same thing to her. Let her see how it feels to teeter on that cliff.”

“When someone is important to you, you take care of them. You try to take their pain away, pull it into yourself if you can, because it's easier to fight her demons for her than to risk someone scarring her.”
