Quote by Sherry Thomas

“He felt as if he stood at the very top of a high cliff. Take a step back and all was safe and familiar.

Or at least, if it has been in the past, I'm not going to let it be true anymore. I want--oh, this is going to sound completely stupid, but I want to be worthy of Stefan. I know he wouldn't let the guys on the team down just to suit his own convenience. I want him to be proud of me. I want him to love me as much as I love him.”
