“Thunder rumbled. My heart beat faster. I turned away from Evernight for the last time and looked back at the flower as it trembled upon its branch. A single petal was torn away by the wind. Pushing my hands through the thorns, I felt lashes of pain across my skin, but i kept going determined. But when my fingertip touched the flower, it instantly darkened, withering and drying as each petal turned black.” HeartHandsPainLastsFeltBlackWindFlowerMy HeartBeatsSkinsDeterminedFasterBranchesTouchedPushingLast TimeTornThunderThornsPetalsLashesFingertipsHeart BeatWithering Book:Evernight (Evernight, Book 1) Source: Evernight (Evernight, Book 1)
“I was the only one who knew the whole truth about Lucas--who he really was, and what we felt for each other. The truth was all I had left of him, and I would have to carry it alone.” WholeLeftFeltWhole Truth Author:Claudia Gray
“It’s funny—when people call you “shy,” they usually smile. Like it’s cute, some funny little habit you’ll grow out of when you’re older, like the gaps in your grin when your baby teeth fall out. If they knew how it felt—really being shy, not just unsure at first—they wouldn’t smile. Not if they knew how the feeling knots up your stomach or makes your palms sweat or robs you of the ability to say anything that makes sense. It’s not cute at all.” PeopleIfsFirstsLittlesFeelingsFallGrowsFeltAbilityBabyHabitTeethMake SenseCuteShyGapsStomachSweatSay AnythingPalmsKnotsUnsureBeing ShyBaby Teeth Author:Claudia Gray
“Lucas should've run out of there that instant. Instead he stared at me through the glass and slowly unfolded his hand opposite mine so that our hands were pressed againts the pane of glass, fingers to fingers, palm to palm. We each move closer, so that our faces were only inches apart. Even with the stained glass, window between us, it felt as intimate as any kiss we'd shared.” ShouldHandsRunningFacesMovingFeltMinesKissingWindowOppositesFingersGlassesIntimateInstantInchesPalmsStained GlassStained Glass Windows Author:Claudia Gray
“this is one of my absolute favourite quotes its from the evernight series (stargazer) charity to Balthazar You remind me of too much. you remind me of what it felt like to be alive, to think of sunlight as something you could enjoy instead of something you could bare, to breath and have it change you, refresh you, awaken you, instead of just churning on and on some old useless habit that taunts you with what you use to be, to sigh and feel relief, to cry and let your sadness pass, instead of having it all bottled up inside of you forever and ever until you don't know who you are any more.” ThinkingKnowsFeelsUseFeltEnjoyForeverToo MuchAliveSadnessCryHabitAbsolutesBreathsWho You AreSeriesCharityUselessReliefFavouriteSunlightSighTauntingChurningUse To Be Author:Claudia Gray
