“But then again, if you don’t put yourself out there, don’t let your guard down, don’t open yourself up to the chance of love, then you will never have the experience of someone proving to you they are worthy of the gift you’re giving them.

“Some memories have the ability to heal, the ability to light up the dark, because the beauty of the memory is so bright, you’re still able to bask in it.

The realization that I can see him but can’t touch him, that he exists but he’s not mine, is agonizing.”

You still have pictures to take,” before leaving the room, shutting the door behind her. “Are you sure I can’t take off your dress?” I ask, hearing November shout through the door, “Do it and die, Evan!” Covering June’s laughing mouth with my own, I pray silently that the night ends quickly.”
