I’d rather not risk it.”

        ❝ EASY ? nothing is easy.❞ pitch-lacquered nails DIG into palms until skin breaks and CRIMSON beads in crescent moons. her FISTED hands shake SLIGHTLY at her sides when she TURNS her gaze to his. ❝ i’ve tried EVERYTHING !❞ she hasn’t. but it’s EASIER to believe that she has when she’s so UPSET.

❛   no     ---    it’s  not  easy  ,  not  for  US  ...  but  i  think  that’s  all  the  more  reason  not  to  give  up.  ever.   ❜

    ‘    there’s usually food    -    we just order in pizzas,    something quick,    but we could get something else if you wanted.    ‘    though he was certainly being teased about the sleepover,     he had no doubt that carlos meant it in good will    -    and he wanted to make sure that carlos was comfortable enough to come over,    so he’d order a thousand of whatever carlos wanted if it helped even a little.     SLEEPOVERS were practically a rite of passage   ;    it wouldn’t be fair to leave the other excluded.    ‘    you’re not on the isle anymore,    you could have sleepovers every night if you wanted.    ‘
