If Amber kept up her act forever, it would only be a matter of time before the broken pieces of her real self were too small to ever be put back together. I didn__ know what happened to people once they were unfixable. I only hoped I never had to find out.

Why do you do it, Amber? Why do you go after people like you do? It__ not who you are.___hat__ the point,_ Amber said. ____ not allowed to be who I really am.

If you're saving, you're succeeding

I wrapped up my food to take home. 'Let's go. We need to discuss your favorite method of dying, because I'm going to kill you. Just so you know.'Claire grinned. 'You're welcome.' ~Gray

Goodbye perfect night that never got the chance to end in Garrett__ arms. Garrett, oh god.

And I mean, who__ to say you can__ make your own rules?_ I say.__poken like a true outlaw,_ Nicholas retorts.I smirk, a little guiltily. __ suppose. Thank goodness you went along with it. Anyone else would have refused to register me or left me to Master Douglas._ Shivers go up my spine.__artners in crime.__ laugh at first, but then think about it. __hat__ kind of sad.___r exciting._ He stares at me for a moment. __ell, speaking as your registrar, you need to get some rest.___re you ever going to let me have any fun?_ I ask.__ot until the sun stops shining.___ell, technically it goes down every night_ I say.__ot in this country.
