“I catch sight of Luis with one of my bandannas on his head and my gut tightens. I yank it off him. "Don't ever touch this, Luis." "Why not?" he asks, his deep brown eyes all innocent. To Luis, it's a bandanna. To me, it's a symbol of what is and will never be. How the hell am I supposed to explain it to an eleven-year-old kid? He knows what I am. It's no secret the bandanna has the Latino Blood colors on it. Payback and revenge got me in and now there's no way out. But I'll die before I let one of my brothers get sucked in. I ball the bandanna in my fist. "Luis, don't touch my shit. Especially my Blood stuff." "I like red and black." That's the last thing I need to hear. "If I ever catch you wearin' it again, you'll be sportin' black and blue," I tell him. "Got it, little brother?" He shrugs. "Yeah. I got it.”

“She raised a brow as she inspected the blood bag. "I wouldn't exactly call it my favorite. Somewhere along the lines of a V8 is more toward my favorite." Chloë grunted in protest.

“The hardest part in relationships is living with the regret of what you did wrong. You knew you could’ve handled things better, maybe stayed quiet, maybe listened more, maybe not pushed them away. But now all you have are moments replaying in your head and the wish to undo them. That’s the thing about regret, it doesn’t change what happened, it just reminds you how real your feelings were. So instead of hating yourself for it, accept that you were still learning how to love. We all mess up sometimes. What matters is that you don’t repeat the same mistake when love finds you again.”
