Dean getting a second book is crazy but here we go. A double feature love story

He used my mother up like an old sponge, putting her through fourteen pregnancies, ten miscarriages, two stillbirths, and the shameful arrival of me and my sister Catalina, none of which produced a male heir.

I just know if Callum or Aida meet Zoe they’re going to take care of her like their own. I hate her family already.

Daniela fell pregnant on the honeymoon, but an anatomy scan showed that the fetus was female yet again. My father forced her to abort it.

Can we abort him?

Knowing you’re loved, truly loved, by at least one person makes all the difference in the world.

2 MILES

I’m so excited or Ozzy

“You did steal his car.” “I borrowed it for a photoshoot. And I brought it right back again.” “With sand in the engine.”

I just know Nero uses miles picture as a target omg

I don’t want to be Justin Bieber—I want to be Scooter Braun.

This didn’t age well

Satisfaction is the enemy of success. I’ll be proud of myself when I’ve got the whole damn world at my feet.

“Are you packed for school?” she asks. “Just about.” Meaning I’ve packed zero items into my suitcase, but I have considered doing it.

Rocco.

Elmo was so right for hating Rocco

“You are gonna survive, aren’t you, Zoe?” She’s silent for a moment, then she lets out a sigh. “Yeah,” she says. “For now.”

how close is too close to home?

And besides, who am I to make her swear she won’t try to kill herself again? I might do the same if I had to marry that walking corpse Rocco Prince.

“Face off again,” Professor Howell commands.

oh my god is he going to make Dean tutor her in fighting

It’s disappointment, too. I don’t want to be dead. Not really. But god did I want to escape. Now I’m back in the thick of my own life, and the weight is suffocating.
