I'll drive both of you, Seb offered at once. Mae nodded at him with gratitude. No, Jamie said sternly. I'm never getting into your horrible car. I promised myself that, because--it's horrible, and you're horrible. So take that!

I want to burn the world because Alan is gone, he said. I want to destroy everything I see. But you mean something to me. I will not destroy the world, because it has you in it.

Words felt so clumsy when she was talking about feelings and not facts.

And what are your interests and hobbies, Nicholas? Annabel asked faintly, sounding like a cross between a television interviewer and a hostage. Nick considered this for a minute, and then said I like swords. Annabel leaned over her plate and asked, her voice changing You fence? Not exactly, Nick drawled. I'm more freestyle.

I don't want to seem ungrateful when you have given me this thoughtful, homemade and totally terrifying gift, Jamie told him. But you can't imagine I'm going to use it. Just to hold someone off. Just remember what I taught you, said Nick. Just buy a little time so I can come get you. Jamie. I'll come get you.

Drop dead, said Nick, and Jamie looked serenely pleased.
Sarah Rees Brennan
