I’ve been searching a long time for something I think I lost. I felt like I found something when I saw you back there.

I make sure to keep a good distance between us, just in case she decides to get happy with a knife or something.

I have to force a smile off my face as I sit limply in my seat... Then, just as I'm congratulating myself for such a stellar plan.

June laughs. "I have to say, you look better than most people I see. I've heard a lot about you." "I hear about you a lot too," Eden replies in a rush, "mostly from Daniel. He thinks you're really hot.

He loves so wholly. It is his nature. He blinks, then tries to find the right response. "I-" he stumbles. "I'm so afraid, June. So afraid of what might happen to-" I put two fingers against his lips to hush him. "Fear makes you stronger," I whisper. Before I can stop myself, I put my hands on his face and press my mouth to his.

Can one mistake really destroy a lifetime together?

Few people ever kill for the right reasons, June. Most do it for the wrong reasons. I just hope you never have to be in either category.
