Kindle Notes & Highlights
Here I was, trying to have a moment with this fantasy of a guy and I couldn’t do anything about the fact that I was still me.

he made me feel like I could shine.
“With you, Marshmallow. I feel like I belong wholly and completely. With you, I have a peace that I have sought my entire life. I don’t feel like I’m crawling out of my skin, or needing to escape. You are my escape. And when we’re apart, I ache to be in your presence again.”
“You make me feel seen, in a world where I’ve spent a life invisible. I didn’t think I wanted that, didn’t know how to be seen. You make me feel stronger and bolder and bring something out in me I didn’t know was there. I feel like the whole world stops when I’m with you, that none of the worries and concerns that used to fill my daily life matter anymore. Not when you look at me the way you do and make me feel the way I feel when I’m around you. Drake, you make me feel like I can do anything.”
You are light, your presence casts out darkness.”
