Tahereh Mafi

" I hear Warner laugh.I see him smile.It's the kind of smile that transforms him into someone else entirely, the kind of smile that puts stars in his eyes and a dazzle on his lips and I realize I've never seen him like this before. I've never seen his teeth--so straight, so white, nothing less than perfect. A flawless, flawless exterior for a boy with a black, black heart. It's hard to believe there's blood on the hands of the person I'm staring at. He looks soft and vulnerable--so human. His eyes are squinting from all his grinning and his cheeks are pink form the cold.He has dimples.He's easily the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.And I wish I'd never seen it. "

" I want to be the friend you fall hopelessly in love with. The one you take into your arms and into your bed and into the private world you keep trapped in your head. I want to be that kind of friend. The one who will memorize the things you say as well as the shape of your lips when you say them. I want to know every curve, every freckle, every shiver of your body. I want to know where to touch you, I want to know how to touch you. I want to know convince you to design a smile just for me. Yes, I do want to be your friend. I want to be your best friend in the entire world. "

" And I've fallen.So hard.I've hit the ground. Gone right through it. Never in my life have I felt this. Nothing like this. I've felt shame and cowardice, weakness and strength. I've known terror and indifference, self-hate and general disgust. I've seen things that cannot be unseen.And yet I've known nothing like this terrible, horrible, paralyzing feeling. I feel crippled. Desperate and out of control. And it keeps getting worse. Every day I feel sick. Empty and somehow aching.Love is a heartless bastard. "

" His hands are holding my cheeks, and he pulls back just to look me in the eye and his chest is heaving and he says, "I think," he says, "my heart is going to explode," and I wish, more than ever, that I knew how to capture moments like these and revisit them forever. Because this.This is everything. "

" And he leans in, so carefully. Breathingand not breathing and hearts beatingbetween us and he‚Äôs so close, he‚Äôs so close and I can‚Äôt feel my legs anymore. I can‚Äôt feel my fingers or the cold or the emptiness of this room because all I feel is him, everywhere,filling everything and he whispers‚ÄúPlease.‚ÄùHe says ‚ÄúPlease don‚Äôt shoot me for this.‚ÄùAnd he kisses me.His lips are softer than anything I've ever known, soft like a first snowfall, like biting into cotton candy, like melting and floating and being weightless in water. It‚Äôs sweet, it‚Äôsso effortlessly sweet.And then it changes.‚ÄúOh God‚Äî‚ÄùHe kisses me again, this time stronger,desperate, like he has to have me, like he‚Äôs dying to memorize the feel of my lips against his own. The taste of him is making me crazy; he‚Äôs all heat and desire and peppermint and I want more. I've just begun reeling him in, pulling him into me when he breaks away.He‚Äôs breathing like he‚Äôs lost his mind andhe‚Äôs looking at me like something has brokeninside of him, like he‚Äôs woken up to find thathis nightmares were just that, that they never existed, that it was all just a bad dream that felt far too real but now he‚Äôs awake and he‚Äôs safe and everything is going to be okay andI‚Äôm falling.I‚Äôm falling apart and into his heart and I‚Äôm a disaster.

" Please," he says. "I'm begging you to stop."I still. "I can't stomach your pain," he says. "I can feel it so strongly and it's making me crazy- please," he says to me. "Don't be sad. Or hurt. Or guilty. You've done nothing wrong." "I'm sorry-""Don't be sorry, either," he says. "God, the only reason I'm not going to kill Kent for this is because I know it would only upset you more. "
