“When I watch you sleep,” he said shakily, “I feel overwhelmed that you exist.”

MY HEARTTTTT

He scratched a hand through his hair. “I’ve always admired that. The way your writing always makes the world seem brighter, and the people in it a little braver.”

“And if it takes me a while to tell you things like ‘Hey, my wife left me for my college roommate,’ maybe it has nothing to do with you, okay? Maybe it’s because I don’t like saying that sentence aloud. I mean, your mom didn’t leave when your dad cheated on her, and my mom didn’t leave my dad when he broke my fucking arm, and yet I couldn’t do anything to make my wife stay.”

“I think I could see myself loving you." He kissed me again, softer this time. "Not right now… but I might… someday."
"That's really good to know." Cupping his jaw roughly between my fingers, I dragged his lips to mine and kissed him hard. "Because I think I could love you back.”

“Don’t do it," Patrick Feely warned, his intelligent eyes boring into mine. "Whatever scene you're planning on causing right now? It won't change anything. He won't leave her.”

why don’t Feely and Lizzie get together instead 😩

“Can I tell you something?"
I nodded eagerly. "You can tell me anything, Gerard."
"You're my favorite person in the world."
My eyes widened in surprise. "I am?"
"Yeah, you are.”
