“Love doesn’t like limits. It doesn’t follow the rules or come when it’s convenient. The moment you try to tell it no, love will laugh in your face.”

“Following Sam through Target is like opening a tiny window to the inside of her brain. And her thought process is like a cat chasing a ball of string. She follows one thread, then the ball rolls and she’s off going somewhere else. While she walks, her hand drags along the racks of clothing, stroking the fabric.”

“It's just as good as in the movies," Sam says.
For a moment, I think she means us, and I'm about to argue that it's better and movies are stupid, but then I realize she means the fountains.
"It's okay."
"Just okay?"
She tries to turn in my arms, but I tighten them around her, pulling her back flush with my chest.
"Hush. I'm trying to watch this okay water show."
When she laughs, I feel like I've hit a home run. Who knew I could be funny? I'm probably not funny anyone but her, but she's the only one who matters. I tuck my chin over the top of her head, and I feel like I'm holding Sam prisoner. She sighs, relaxing into me, happy to have me as her warden.
Okay, that metaphor got away from me a little bit.
But I don't care. I won't overthink it - that's my new mantra and goal. Sometimes it works. Sometimes I lie in bed, worrying.”

“The women in this room are my dream team, my anchor. It warms my heart the way they all circled around me today, protective and ready to fight on my behalf. I'm so lucky to have them.
Still, I feel like I've been liquified. Someone will have to scoop me off the couch with a spoon or soak me up with a paper towel.
But as one phone buzzes, then another, and my friends scatter to talk to their guys, I have to some to terms with the face that they're each also now part of a new team. They are still one hundred percent in my corner, but it's different.
Delilah gets up, probably to call Thayden again. Zoey is talking to Ella about a song she wrote. Harper blushes while glancing down at a text, and Zane will be here any minute with a delivery of takeout.
My team has grown larger. That's how I should think of it. The men in my friends' lives support them, which means they'll by extension, support me. Just like Thayden did the moment Delilah called him.
My circle has grown wider. It's a good thing, I tell myself. But my island in the middle of all the noise and people is started to feel more than a little lonely.”
