Tessa looked quickly to Will, but he only crossed the room as he always did to lean against the fireplace mantel. Cecily had never been able to decide if he did this because he was perpetually cold or because he thought he looked dasing standing before the leaping flames.

Tessa was laying on her side, her brown hair spread over the pillow, watching Will, whose face was bent over the pages, with a look of tenderness in her eyes, a tenderness mirrored in the softness of Will's voice as he read.

Tessa knows Will,” protested Charlotte. “She trusts Will.” “Iwouldn’t go that far,” muttered Tessa.

Tessa is gone, and every moment she is gone is a knife ripping me apart from the inside.

Tessa exhaled. She hadn't realized that she had been holding her breath until that moment. Will must have heard her, for he raised his head and his gaze met hers across the clearing. Something in it made her look away. Agony stripped so raw was not meant for her eyes.

Tessa poked at her left incisor with her tongue. It was flat again, an ordinary tooth. I don't understand what makes them come out like that! Hunger, said Jem. Were you think about blood? No. Were you thinking about eating me? Will inquired. No! No one would blame you, said Jem. He's very annoying.

Will bounded up onto one of the ladders and yanked a book off the shelf. I'll find you something else to read. Catch. He had let it fall without looking and Tessa had to dart forward to seize it before it hit the floor. - Clockwork Angel

It was odd, (Tessa thought), what brought out tenderness in people.

Will gave a short laugh. He was in gear as if he had just come from the practice room, and his hair curled damply against his temples. He was not looking at Tessa, but she had grown used to that. Will hardly ever looked at her unless he had to.

Of course, the guests were also staring because they know of my relationship with Camille, and are wondering what we might be doing here in the library... alone. He wiggled his eyebrows at Tessa.

Their grandchildren had reminded Will of the song about demon pox he had taught them- when they were much too young, Tessa had always thought- and that they had all memorized. They sang it all together and out of tune, scandalizing Sophie.

You point your feet out too much when you walk,” Will went on. He was busy polishing an apple on his shirtfront, and appeared not to notice Tessa glaring at him. “Camille walks delicately. Like a faun in the woods. Not like a duck” “I do not walk like a duck.” “I like ducks,” Jem observed diplomatically. “Especially the ones in Hyde Park.

I have come to understand something about novels, Tessa said. And what is that? They are not true.
Cassandra Clare

She's alive, Thomas said, not opening his eyes. What? Will was caught off guard. The one you come back for. Her. Tessa. She's with Sophie.
Cassandra Clare
Image
Against his own will, almost, Will felt himself understanding he would have done anything, he thought, told any lie, taken any risk, to make Tessa love him.
Cassandra Clare
Image
Her name rang in Will's mind like the chime of a bell he wondered if any other name on earth had such an inescapable resonance to it. She couldn't have been named something awful, could she, like Mildred. He couldn't imagine lying awake at night, staring up at the ceiling while invisible voices whispered 'Mildred' in his ears. But Tessa--

Oh, leave it,” said Jem, kicking Will, not without affection, lightly on the ankle. “She’s annexed my plan!” “Will,” Tessa said firmly. “Do you care more about the plan being enacted or about getting credit for it?” Will pointed a finger at her. “That,” he said. “The second one.

It was good to be here with Hem and Cecily an Charlotte, to be surrounded by their affection, but without her there would always be something missing, a Tessa-shaped part chiseled out of his heart that he could never get back.
Cassandra Clare

I love you, Tessa, and I have loved you, almost since the moment I met you.
Cassandra Clare

I think there is hope for you yet, Will Herondale. I will try to learn how to have it, without you to show me. Tessa, Jem said. She knows despair, and hope as well. you can teach each other. Find her, Will, and tell her that I loved her always. My blessings, for all that it is worth, is on you both.

I don't know how I could sleep at night, not knowing I was surrounded by a thousand other sleeping, dreaming souls. - pg 120, Jem to Tessa & Will
Cassandra Clare

[Jem] looked from Will to Tessa and raised his silvery eyebrows. A miracle, he said. You got him to speak. Just to shout at me, really, said Tessa. Not quite loaves and fishes.
Cassandra Clare

Come back to me, Tessa. Henry said that perhaps, since you had touched the soul of an angel, that you dream of Heaven now, of fields of angels and flowers of fire. Perhaps you are happy in those dreams. But I ask this out of pure selfishness. Come back to me. For I cannot bear to lose all my heart.

He flushed, the colour dark against his pale skin. 'I mean. Tessa Gray, will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?' Jem.
