i crave someone knowing me so well that they can tell what i’m thinking. jonah griggs takes my hand under the table and links my fingers with his and i know that i would sacrifice almost anything just to keep this state of mind, for the rest of the week at least.

She said, I’m going to miss you when I wake up.

Don’t wake up, he answered.

But he did.

Kestrel, beside him on the grass, said, “Did I wake you? I didn’t mean to.”

It took him a velvety moment to understand that this was real. The air was quiet. An insect beat its clear wings. She brushed hair from his brow. Now he was very awake.

     “Before I came on this trip, I’d never been anywhere. I mean, seriously. Nowhere. But you know what, I was perfectly fine with that. I was completely comfortable at being home and I thought my life was perfect.”      Dolores nods. “Home sweet home.”      “Right, exactly. And you can’t miss what you don’t know. Except…” I lean forward so that I’m facing her. “What if we’re wrong?”      “I don’t know what you mean.” She looks pained.      “I mean, what if we’re those kinds of people back there but maybe there are other kinds of people inside us and we just need the right circumstances to draw them out?”

“When you love someone, they become a part of who you are. They're in everything you do. They're in the air you breathe and the water you drink and the blood in your veins. Their touch stays on your skin and their voice stays in your ears and their thoughts stay in your mind. You know their dreams because their nightmares pierce your heart and their good dreams are your dreams too. And you don't think they're perfect, but you know their flaws, the deep-down truth of them, and the shadows of all their secrets, and they don't frighten you away; in fact you love them more for it, because you don't want perfect. You want them.” - Cassandra Clare, Lady Midnight
