“Love isn’t something you choose, Angelface. It chooses you. And even if it only lasts a little while, it’s worth it. Even if it ends in flames, it’s worth it. Even if it cuts out your heart and leaves you a bruised, bloody mess, it’s worth it.” My voice cracks when I ask, “Why?” He lifts a shoulder and sends me a small, pained smile. “Because it’s love. Love is the only thing that really matters in this life. Love is everything.”
