I felt like this was the reason why I never wanted to get older, because why move forward when it was so brilliant to just remain as we were?

“We’ll always try to be ahead but we’ll always be behind. We’ll be like this forever.”

Surely there was someplace where it was safe, where who you thought you were matched up with how others treated you, where there was forgiveness in great abundance, never to be depleted, and as far as I knew, the first step to getting there was to have a boy who loved you and only you.
