I'm not going to pretend that I know what youve gone through . but after reading those pages , I can assure you that you aren't the only one who was scarred in that fire . just because he chose not to show you his scars doesn't mean they don't exist . she picks up the box and sets it on my lap . here you need to show him the respect he showed you by not turning away from them.

I dont want to be your first , Fallon . I want to be your last

it pisses me off you allow something so trivial to define such a huge part of you . I can't make you pretty in the book . Because that be an insult You're fucking beautiful. And you're funny . And the only times I'm not completely enamored by you are the moments you're feeling sorry for yourself because I don't know if you've realized this yet , but your alive , fallon . and every time you look in the mirror you don't have a right to hate what you see . Because you survived when a lot of people don't get that lucky so from now on when you think about your scars , you aren't allowed to resent them . you're going to embrace them, because you're lucky to be on this earth to see them. And any guy you allow to touch your scars better thank you for that privilege.

Wow . Is he ...
he is
Ben . I say narrowing my eyes . Are you... booksting me ?
he cocks an eyebrow . Booksting ?
Yeah when a hot guy talks books with a girl . It's like sexting but out loud with books instead of sex . Nor does it have to do with texts . Okay , so it's nothing like sexting , but it made sense in my head . He falls onto the bed in laughter . I scoot toward him and place my hand on his chest as I lean over him . Don't stop I tease in a seductive voice . Give me more Ben . Did you read ebooks or... I run my finger slowly down his chest . Hardbacks ? He pulls his hand behind his head and a smug look washes over his face . Oh they were hardback, all right and I'm not sure if your ready for this , but .... I have my very own TBR pile you should see it , Fallon . It's huge .
