“We (me and Mr. Green Eyes) have been living our lives on fault lines. Occasionally moving or causing friction but mostly just existing, waiting on the bang.

So here we were, two fault lines, existing and surviving, and we just collided full force. Are we going to be spectacular and create mountains, making beauty from our chaos, or are we a city leveling natural disaster?”
Claire Granger, When Faults Collide
“People like us, sure, we’re complex and complicated, but because of that- we could never have someone not complex.

“My therapist tells me that I am doing everything I can to not be like my mother, so instead of dealing with the prospect of a relationship, I just shut that part of my life off all together.

Then again, I think my therapist has a bit of a wild imagination. It’s her job to analyze me and figure out my “coping mechanisms” as she calls them.

I call them my rules. I live my life with a certain set of rules to keep me safe and grounded. I am comfortable with those rules. One of them, the most important, is no dating.”
Claire Granger, When Faults Collide
“And then, to make matters worse, why did the only person who has affected me decide to MOVE IN NEXT DOOR?!?!

The only logical solution I see here is that I’m going to have to move.”
Claire Granger, When Faults Collide
“We aren’t….oh what’s the word….codependent. That’s the one. We aren’t that. We spend a lot of time together, but we still have our own interests and things that we do. He doesn’t control me, I don’t control him. We are just…happy. That’s all. Can a relationship not just be happy? Does there have to be more tragedy in our lives? I’m sorry, but I think Blake and I have had enough tragedy. We are ready for our happy ending now.”
Claire Granger, When Faults Collide
“Though we were worlds apart, literally oceans between us, our childhoods had not been so different.”
Claire Granger, When Faults Collide
