Kindle Notes & Highlights
Lennon is mine. My best friend, the hand in mine, the weight lifted off my chest. She’s the sunrise when I spent too many years in the dark, and breathing easier for the first time since I was a kid. And I am terrified to lose her. I don’t know how to ask her to stay, to wait for me. To help me. But, fuck, I want to.
“I’ll wait, Jaxon. I don’t care how long. Because this? This is a once-in-a-lifetime feeling. You’re a once-in-a-lifetime find. I’m not walking away.”
“One thing about me, Mitts? I’m gonna smother you with love until you have no choice but to accept that it exists, and that it’s real.”
“At the end of the day, the only person you need to be enough for is you. But for what it’s worth, you’ve always been enough for us too.”
You love me the way I always dreamed of being loved. The way I deserve to be loved. And I’m going to love you the way you deserve to be loved.”
“Thank you for falling with me. I don’t think I could’ve survived falling alone.”
Being with you feels like the first time I looked through your telescope. It feels like seeing fifty million stars when I’d only ever been able to see ten thousand.
Kissing Lennon is like that first sip of coffee on a cold winter morning.
“Hey, Ryne? On your honeymoon, I fucked the ring right off your fiancée. Fucked her the way she deserved to be fucked. Best night of my life at the time, but it just keeps getting better. I’m gonna fuck her the way she deserves to be fucked for the rest of my life. I’m gonna love her that way too.”
“Do you know what I feel when I look at the stars? I feel love. I feel at peace. I feel at home, honey. That’s what I found in the stars. I found my home.”
