Ann Aguirre
If this is the last time, let me say it so you never forget. I will always love you, Deuce. No matter where souls go, mine will be looking for you, solnyshko moyo. No. I want a promise instead.

Ann Aguirre
Don't worry he tells me tenderly. It doesn't matter who you've been, who you are, or who you become. I'm with you every step of the way.
Ann Aguirre
What was the good of having such a fine home if you weren't willing to fight for it?
Ann Aguirre
He'd said the sun could burn me. It certainly looked angry enough, all orange and glowing mad.
Ann Aguirre
Sometimes it felt as if all happiness came at a price. You could never, ever, have perfection. Life gave you beauty so you could bear the pain.
Ann Aguirre
Then in the interest of full honesty, I really wish you'd kiss me right now.
Ann Aguirre
Are you afraid of falling, baby? No, I’m afraid of landing. [He’s laughing, and I’m smiling.] Stupid idiot smile, don’t you know what comes next?
Ann Aguirre
I swept down the stairs to find Fade waiting for me at the bottom. His dark eyes widened, and for the first time since I'd known him, he was speechless. He stared up at me like I was everything he ever wanted.
Ann Aguirre
I sighed. 'It's hard. You're the only one who listens to what I have to say.' Longshot dropped a gentle, comforting arm around my shoulders. 'Then speak louder, girl. Don't let them put out your spark.
Ann Aguirre

Ann Aguirre
