1 " This is the tragedy of knowing my fate: I have seen how it ends, and I will walk right into it, and nothing will change. "
― Kiersten White , Perfect Lies (Mind Games, #2)
2 " Clinical, brilliantly medical-minded Adam believes in fate. A fate with Fia. "
3 " I lie constantly. All the time. I’m nothing but one big mass of lies. "
4 " I chose him. If I chose him, he had to be the right choice. I wouldn’t love him if it weren’t right. "
5 " We change the future with every choice we make, "
6 " James is all I have. I chose James. He has to be right. Please let him be right. "
7 " I’m still afraid to sleep—too many ghosts peering creeping condemning. "
8 " Probably you should stay out of my head. It’s not a friendly place. "
9 " Cole gets up and then says, “Adam. Five texts. I can read them to you.” He pauses. “Unless they’re personal.” I roll my eyes. “Not that it’s any of your business, but I’m pretty sure he’s desperately in love with my sister.” Cole snorts. “He’s crazy.” “He’d have to be, right? "
10 " I have to trust that, or I’ll lose my mind. Well, lose it more. "
11 " Crazy must run in your family,” he says.“You do know Fia!” I blurt, then bite my lip. "
12 " I’ll be fine. I’m always fine. "
13 " I wash myself clean of guilt, of pain, of fear, of emotion. I am the ocean. I am empty. I am nothing. "
14 " I am a girl in want of complete destruction. "
15 " I think happy thoughts and feel happy things and I do not let myself near the swirling black edges of the hole that is my soul when I look at them. "
16 " We have another friend in common. Sweetest girl. She’s like a sane version of you. Goes by Annie. "
17 " It’s about Fia. Everything always is, even when she is nowhere near, even when she left all of us. We still orbit the brilliant, chaotic burning of her star. "
18 " You really care about my sister, don’t you?” I don’t want him to. He’s so sweet. I can’t imagine anyone loving Fia without being hurt by it. "
19 " I’m very familiar with how Fia fights.” I smirk. “I’m so glad one of us kicked your butt. "
20 " Am I giving you a headache? I think. “You are a headache. "
