QUOTE : I held her tighter. She brought her arms around me, and my heart rocked. If I died right there, in that moment, with her arms around me, I’d die happy. When was the last time I’d felt that sense of comfort? I thought about that for a moment, my mind flipping through memories and coming up short until I pulled up the last time we were together. That was the last time I felt this, and yet, I’d left. I’d broken it off and never looked back. Right then wasn’t the time for that either. It wasn’t the time to be selfish with her affection, but goddamn, I needed it like I needed my next breath.
