“After truly knowing Ryke, I can't fathom shutting the door on a sibling. It's a bind that's different than a friendship. It's one that hurts more if it breaks, but when it's whole, it means everything”

“Do you remember what I used to tell you?” Manson said. “When we were teenagers and we’d drive out here to talk about shit…you’d tell me you didn’t want to see another day…” I remembered that, of course I did. I remembered the despair I felt, the pain we shared, how hopeless I’d been. “If you can get through the night, you’ll see the sun again,” I said, repeating the words he’d told me back then. “Keep chasing the next sunrise.” I closed my eyes as I exhaled. “The night feels really fucking dark, Manson, but I’m still chasing sunrises.”

“Hey," Patrick said, his thumbs framing Jono's mouth, eyes searching his. "I love you."
Jono didn't think love should ever hurt, but it gutted him right then - the best kind of pain, the ache that said I'm here, I'm alive, I'm with you. Jono blinked wetness out of his eyes that he'd blame on the salt water he could taste on his lips. "I love you too," Jono rasped out before kissing Patrick afain and again and again.”
