61 " For me sexuality is about attraction. Whether it’s men, women—it doesn’t really matter. The human race is filled with passion and lust. And to coin terms like heterosexuality, homosexuality or even bisexuality makes no sense to me. You are human. You love who you love. You fuck who you fuck. That should be enough—no labels. No stigmas. Nothing. Just be to be. But life isn’t that kind. People will always find things to hate. "

62 " I knew being your girlfriend wouldn’t have many perks. I still owe you things.”“You have plenty of perks,” I tell her. “You just choose not to delight in them. "
63 " Now I have everything. The only thing about having everything is that you can lose it all. "
64 " Sometimes the dreams you construct for yourself at ten, twelve-years-old aren’t the same ones you thought they would be at twenty-four. And it just takes a while to finally make peace with that. "
65 " I may not always be on your side, but I have your best interest at heart. "
66 " A man in a green truck lays on his horn to my left, as if noise will magically part the congested freeway. I hold back the urge to roll down my window and remind him that he’s not Moses and magic does not exist. "
67 " It’s easier to be born strong than to find a strength that you never thought existed. "
68 " but sometimes love is worth every foolish choice you make. "
69 " I ship Ryke and Daisy so hard it hurts. "
70 " She shakes her head but her lips lift. “Stop.” “Stop what?” “Being right.” She groans and leans back against the couch in a huff. “I hate that we’re all so worked up over it and you say a few words, and now everything makes sense again. "
71 " They looked like two apes pounding their chest and asking for a banana. The thing about me—I was not so willing to give just anyone my fucking banana. Every benefit should outweigh the cost. "
72 " Because one fucking day, I plan to marry that girl, and I want them to realize that I’m the best man for Rose. "
73 " I am so deeply in love with you, Rose.” I wipe her cheeks with my thumb. "
74 " I’m used to being on the outskirts of a network, a connection that people use if they really need one. "
75 " That’s it, Rose. I have you. You’re safe with me. "
76 " That, no matter how many boxes people try to put you in, as long as you know yourself, you’ll be fine in the end. And you may have to play by their rules, put up with their labels and use their terms—I’ve done so all my life—but it’s what you believe that matters most. "
77 " You’ve bewitched me, body and soul. "
78 " People label you the moment they meet you,” I tell her. “You’re an ice cold bitch. You’re a man-hating prude, a rich stuck-up brat. They only tell a fraction of the truth, and if you let them hurt you, you let them win. "
