Faces Quotes

“My soul starts and ends with you”
― A.M. Rose, Faces

“My heart knows it’s you. That’s the only thing I could think of. I couldn’t empty my mind because you’re there all the time. And so that’s what comes out.”
“Me?” Hayden asked, and Dorian nodded.
“The way you make me feel. The way I feel when I hear your voice or your laugh. It’s the softness of your hair under my fingers. It’s the breath you let out in my ear before you wake up in the morning. It’s how you read to me before bed, how you carry me when there’s puddles on the street, and how you always muss up my hair even more even though you always mock me about how messy it already is. Everything is you. But it’s because I already love you. It’s because I know you, and I’m drawing you because you’re everything I know. We can’t know that you’re my soulmate. Because this isn’t how this should go.”

“Why can’t it be enough? That I make you feel like this.” He motioned toward the pictures, knowing Dorian couldn’t see. “You used every color you owned. Every last one. That’s how much you feel for me. And it’s not enough.”

“I chose you. Nothing and no one will change that choice.”
“Not even your soulmate?”
“I feel like maybe I know myself better than the universe knows me. I know what’s right for me. What makes me happy.”
“And what’s that?”
“You.”

“[...] If you don’t really want to wait for your person, you could go out and find anyone. Someone more…I don’t know. Just more."
[...]
“How can there be more?” he asked, and Dorian frowned.
“What?”
“How can there be more than you?”
[...]
“How can there be more, when you feel this good in my arms?” he said, pulling him closer.
“How can you think there can be more when you taste like this?” He pecked his lips again. And again. And again.
“How much more could there be when the thought of you close to me makes me go insane?” he said, lowering his head and kissing the soft skin just behind his ear, hearing him moan quietly.
He took his hand and placed his palm in the middle of his chest, allowing him to hear his heartbeat.
“How can there be more when this is what you do to me?” he whispered into his ear, kissing the shell of it right after his words, and Dorian caved.”

“You’re allowed to have friends. And you have them. Alex is your friend, bless his scatterbrained soul. But friends don’t make you look like a lovesick puppy while your sister describes them. Friends don’t make you blush or smile that silly smile. This man isn’t a friend, Hayden.”
