Kindle Notes & Highlights
The library won’t let you borrow more books until you return it, but you never return it because you’ll never need any other book.”
Apparently being a grown-up means shit changes, and if that’s the case, when the fuck did I get old?
The twist in my gut when he says something like that makes my chest tighter and tighter until soon his words will be like a tourniquet wrapped around my heart.
“When you went down on the field tonight, my heart stopped, and I wanted to trade places with you. I wish I could take away your pain, because you’re the best guy I know, Shane.”
“Do you think it’s possible to be in love with someone for years and not know it?”
“A lot of people do something because they think it’s the norm. It’s staying true to yourself when you don’t meet social expectations that’s hard.”
“You threw imaginary glitter at him and yelled ‘Be majestic, bitch!’”
The feeling of being inside him, of being whole—Talon and Miller—it clicks. It’s something I’ve never been able to define, and until recently, I didn’t understand it. But now I do. My soul mate happens to be a male, and I’m totally okay with that.
“Shane?” “Yeah,” Miller croaks. “You’re so worth the risk. You’re worth everything.”
“It’s not easy—loving someone you know other people will have opinions about. It’s not easy being anything society doesn’t expect you to be. But when you’re with the person who was literally created with the sole purpose of being your other half, there’s no way to fight it. There’s only the choice to hide it or face it together, and I want to fight every battle and overcome every obstacle with Miller. I want us to help pave the way for others to be who they want to be and love who they want to love.”
