Tara Sivec, Watch Over Me

[storyaboutagirl]

Careful, cautioned George. I don’t want to be an only child. My grin died. “I already am,” I said, and floored it.

Sometimes we leave the connecting door between our rooms open all night. We’d still share a room if they’d let us, turn the other room into an office and have done with it. Because both of us hate to be alone, and both of us hate to have other people—people outside the country we’ve made together—around when we’re defenseless. We’re always defenseless when we’re asleep. We leave the connecting door open, and I wake up in the night to the sound of him snoring, and I wonder how the hell I’m going to stay alive after he finally slips up. He’ll die first, we both know it, but I don’t know… I really don’t know how long I’ll stay alive without him. That’s the part Shaun doesn’t know. I don’t intend to be an only child for long.

“The difference between the truth and a lie is that both of them can hurt, but only one will take the time to heal you afterward.”

Mira Grant (Feed)

[battleofdesires]

Given a choice between life and death, choose life. Given a choice between right and wrong, choose what’s right. And given a choice between a terrible truth and a beautiful lie, choose the truth every time.

I just find it interesting that kids apparently used to cry when Bambi’s mother died. George and I both held our breaths, and then cheered when she didn’t reanimate and try to eat her son.

I’ve been in love too many times to count. I’d like to say it gets easier, but it doesn’t. The pain you’re feeling now is the pain you’re going to feel again and again. The advantage of having lived through this is that I do know I’ll come out the other side. The pain lessens. You manage to distract yourself until the distractions become more important than the thing you’re distracting yourself from.

Ghastly Bespoke (Skulduggery Pleasant: Death Bringer)

For God's sake, don't let her watch Cinderella. What kind of example is that? A mindless twit who can't even remember where she left her damn shoe, so she has to wait for some douchebag in tights to bring it to her? Give me a frigging break!

“Old women have a thing for me. And I don't mean a pinch-my-cheek, pat-my-head kind of thing. I mean a grab-my-ass, rub-my-junk, why-don't-you-push-my-wheelchair-into-the-broom-closet-so-we-can-get-nasty kind of thing. It's fucking disturbing.”

“Edward Cullen can take his stupid heroin and OD on it. Kate is my own personal brand of Viagra.”

"I killed a sofa for you, and you go and sit in a chair. I don't think you appreciate the sacrifice that has been made for you."

Derek Landy ~ Death Bringer

I crush her against me. I want to be part of her. Not just inside her but all around her. I want our rib cages to crack open and our hearts to migrate and merge. I want our cells to braid together like living thread.

Isaac Marion, Warm Bodies (via serialstranger)

“Sometimes things happen in life that you didn't plan for. All you can do is suck it up and start mapping out a new plan.”

Colleen Hoover ~ Point Of Retreat
