“I meant it when I said I didn't believe in love at first sight. It takes time to really, truly fall for someone. Yet I believe in a moment. A moment when you glimpse the truth within someone, and they glimpse the truth within you. In that moment, you don't belong to yourself any longer, not completely.

After that, you can't take it back, no matter how much you want to, no matter how hard you try.” WantLoveTryingFirstsBelieveSaidMatterHardMomentsFallI BelieveSightI Believe InThat MomentWithin YouTake TimeLove At First SightGlimpseIt Takes TimeBelieve In Love Author:Claudia Gray

“Vic nudged my elbow with his. "You and me are still friends, right? You guys get a joint custody in the divorce. Generous visitations rights." "Divorce?" Despite myself, I laughed. Only Vic could call the aftermath of a bad first date a divorce. We hadn't exactly been friends beforehand, so "still" was an exaggeration, but it would've been mean to point that out. Besides, I liked Vic. "We're still friends." "Excellent. The weirdos have to stick together around here." "Are you calling me a weirdo?"
