Are you reading?" I say. It's not that I don't think Finn can read or anything, but it's just - well, not what I expected to see.

Elizabeth ScottWherever I go, I'll always see you. You'll always be with me. And there's no happy ending coming here, no way a story that started on a night that's burned into my heart will end the way I wish it could. You're really gone, no last words, and no matter how many letters I write to you, you're never going to reply. You're never going to say good-bye. So I will. Good-bye, Julia. Thank you for being my friend. Thank you for being you.

Elizabeth ScottI always wanted to be grown up. When I was little I couldnโt wait to be a teenager and go to high school. When I got there I wanted to be done with it, wanted to get out into the world, the real one, and live in it. The thing is, that world doesnโt exist. All growing up means is that you realize no one will come along to fix things. No one will come along to save you.
