She loved all the wolves behind her house, but she loved one of them most of all.
And this one loved her back. He loved her back so hard that even the things that weren't special about her became special: the way she tapped her pencil on her teeth, the off-key songs she sang in the shower, how when she kissed him he knew it meant for ever.
Hers was a memory made up of snapshots: being dragged through the snow by a pack of wolves, first kiss tasting of oranges, saying goodbye behind a cracked windshield.
A life made up of promises of what could be: the possibilities contained in a stack of college applications, the thrill of sleeping under a strange roof, the future that lay in Sam's smile.

I shout it out so loud
Cause the next time that I find my voice I might not remember how.

Or even tell me it's because you could not live without The Boy's stunning Boyfruits for another night..."
Sam's face was twisted into a weird shape at the mention of his Boyfruits.

Do you feel better?” I asked Sam as he opened the door to the Volkswagen for me.
“Yes,” he said. He was still a terrible liar.
“Good,” I said. I was still a fantastic one.

I wasn’t sure if I was charmed by his reluctance to share a bed with a girl or insulted that, apparently, I wasn’t hot enough for him to charge the mattress like a bull.

"I don't shop very well", Grace said. "I just see what I need and get it.

You look like a puppy. Like I'm jingling my keys and you're jumping by the door waiting for your walk"
