Kindle Notes & Highlights
We live in a time where people ask which school you went to before asking your last name.
“That is precisely the problem here, isn’t it? That I can’t stop looking at you.”
“That I want you. More than I have ever wanted anyone or anything in my entire life.”
“I don’t just want to be friends… I want more.” His words knock the wind right out of me.
“You aren’t my type, just the way that I am not yours. But that’s why we are good for each other—we are so different, yet we’re the same.
“This has been me for so long, I have never wanted to be any other way. Until now, until you.”
I somehow know it is the calm before the storm, but right now Hardin is my anchor. I just pray that he doesn’t pull me under.
“Don’t ever leave me, Tess,” he whispers and falls back into sleep. My heart nearly explodes at his plea, and I know that as long as he wants me here, I’m here.
“Do you remember when you asked me who I love the most in the world?” he asks, his lips inches from mine. I nod, though it seems so long ago, and I didn’t think he was even paying attention. “It’s you. You’re the person that I love most in the world.”
