Quote by Celeste Baxendell

“Aurelia, I don’t understand how things got so twisted between us. I messed up. I should have been honest with you about who I was, but I was always sincere. If you accept this, I will spend the rest of my life fixing what’s happened. I— Whatever he’d originally written was scratched out beyond recognition. I care about you. All I want is for you to be safe and happy. You can hate me for the rest of your life. You can scream at me until you lose your voice, but please let me help you. I will gladly spend the rest of my life protecting yours if you let me. Forever yours, Sandor”

It’s not about my mom or my dad or the stupid shit I’ve done. It’s about me, the ball, and the batter. It’s the one place in the world where I feel like I’m in control. Like I have a say in what happens around me.” I stopped my head from nodding in agreement once I realized that I was doing it. “I feel that way when I’m taking pictures. Anything that I’m not seeing through my lens fades away in the background. And I get to frame my picture any way I choose. I get to dictate how it looks. What’s in it. What isn’t. Behind that lens I have complete control in how things are seen.” He smiled, his dimples indenting his cheeks. “You get it.”
