I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, and then all at once.

"That's the thing about pain... it demands to be felt..." - The Fault In Our Stars by John Green (2012)
★★★★★ aaaaa tfios T_T another one that makes me think of school. I remember reading it when it was new which was in 2012 which doesn't seem that long ago until you realise that it's actually been *eleven years* (!!) I remember reading it and crying and then a bunch of us counting down the weeks and the days and the moments until the movie came out and then we watched it and cried all over again... I like little memories like these... x
You don't get to choose if you get hurt in this world, but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices.

its always “wyd” and not “I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you.”
