Kindle Notes & Highlights
“That’s what I imagine in the end. You and me and our galaxy. And maybe I don’t want you to forget it.”
“Dad told me that it’s okay if I never had friends. He said that I’m the
queen of my own galaxy, and after so many years, I’ve realized there are people in the universe who make you feel at home. Donnelly has made me feel like my galaxy is the happiest, most exhilarating place to be, even if I’m the only one there.” I drop my head and gaze back at our photo. “He treats me like I’m his moon. His stars. Like I’m the person who makes him glad it’s today and there’ll be a tomorrow, and I don’t know if I’ve ever been that for anyone who’s not my family.”
I’m someone worth something. And he’s worth everything to me.
“I’m the hero of your story.” His voice drops to the same hushed sound as mine. “I don’t know if anyone has ever placed me there, but one of the things I’m most scared of is disappointing you.”
“To remind you of our future together,” Donnelly says. “Time is irrelevant when I’m always right here.”
“Whoever the girl is, you made her look out-of-this-world extraordinary.” His lips begin to rise. “You are, Luna.”
“You’ve communed with the extraterrestrial?” “Just one.” He’s looking at me. “And she’s the prettiest alien I’ve ever seen.”
“I’m at your earthly service, space babe.”
“My heart is a chasm of everything I know and love, and it will always be filled with you.” I can’t look away from her. “I love you, Luna. I love you so bad, not having you just hurts.”
My heart is a chasm of everything I know and love, and it will always be filled with you.
“I choose you, Donnelly. I want you. I’m falling in love with you.”
