See anything interesting out there in the woods of King Hall?

That's when I caught my first glimpse of Blaine Crabtree. He was sandwiched in between two guys that were laughing at who knows what. At first I didn't notice anything but a big mop of bleached blonde hair, then he looked up from his pack of cloves and I was locked into the bluest eyes that I had ever seen. His expression didn't change, he didn't smile and didn't blink. It seemed like I was lost in his eyes, like he was using them to do the most calculated math problem, and that math problem was me.

His lips touched mine and I lost my breath. Everything slipped away until there was only him. - Natasha

What is it about guys named Adam?

Caring for someone is scary, because you both know how it feels to lose someone in the span of a heartbeat.

He gazed deeply into my eyes. Placing his hand to my cheek, he caressed my skin with his fingertips. __riel, you have a strength that cannot be hindered by anything. A strength that I admire greatly._ - Luca

I grinned. __o you are human after all._ I touched his chest, feeling him breathe hard in and out. __ always thought you were made of steel, you know,_ I said.__uperman?_ Nat arched his eyebrows.__o, the Tin Man,_ I answered back. I settled my head against his chest, turning my ear to listen to his heartbeat. __ sometimes wondered if you had a heart._ - Summer, Perfect Summer

I don__ get where he gets off thinking he should be able to have his cake and eat it too because news flash, this cake store is fucking closed.--Lane

For now, I'll let you plead temporary amnesia," he said and lifted my chin to him. "But I'm never going to forget what it felt like when you were biting my lip instead of your own.

I can tell you, Jay, nothing that happens in this life is worth killing yourself over. Time passes, and you can decide to change your future. You don't let what some assholes say or do, direct you. In this life, it only matters what you do with it.

Why do you do that?_ Torrin__ voice echoes in the empty hall. His hand is holding my arm gently, not at all like Derek does. I can__ have this. I can__. I shouldn__ have ever come here with him. I draw in a shaky breath and pull my arm away. __o what?_ __alk away every time I ask you something personal?_ I stare hard at him. __hy do you do that? He blinks. __uh?_ __sk so many questions._ His mouth drops open and closes and five long seconds pass before he says, __t__ what people do, Quinn. When they__e getting to know each other._ I shake my head and spin toward the door. __ou don__ want to get to know me.
