a diamond in a room full of coal: beautiful, interesting, always the most fascinating thing around.

Grady cuts into the onion, right through the middle. The skin is still on, and he’s holding the knife like he’s going to stab someone with it.

“Have you ever seen an onion before?” I ask.

I hold her closer, nuzzling my nose into her neck, and kiss her softly below her ear. “I already like being yours,” I say.

“Please?” I land a light kiss on her nose. “Okay,” I say.

“Do you see this pie?” she asks me, her face and voice completely serious. I just sigh and cross my arms. “Eli.” “Yes, I see the pie.” “This is my pie,” she says. “I nearly had to stab your brother Levi with a fork to get it. And I love you, but if you try to eat it, I’ll stab you with a fork.” “I understand,” I say. “You want me to eat it while you’re asleep.” Violet does not look amused.

“I love you,” she says. “And I’m sorry I stabbed you with a fork.” “I think I’ll live,” I murmur, kissing her again. “I love you too.”
