1 " I had never considered what it would be like to be in love until I was in it. "
― Tegan Quin , High School
2 " The keen desire that had gripped me seconds before evaporated. It wasn’t different from when Naomi did it, but it felt utterly wrong. "
3 " I could think of nothing but her. I half listened in school, half studied for my tests, half completed my assignments, half lived when I wasn’t next to her. "
4 " I think it’s cool that you’re so accepting of…” I paused. “Zach. A lot of guys wouldn’t be.” I had wanted to say “accepting of me.” The line got quiet again. "
5 " I placed my palm over the mark, let myself feel Alex’s mouth one more time before I unlatched the door. Smiling at myself in the mirror, I felt the happiest I ever had in my entire life. "
6 " I wasn't a quitter, I just finally knew who I wanted to be. "
7 " Then I began to wish that the details of our night didn’t line up so closely with the assumptions held by this group of people about what happened on our side of the city. "
