Everything is fake. Everything in the world is fake. It’s like, you know…the grass on the football field isn’t even grass. It's… it’s plastic! All the people are fake. They’re made out of metal. But I like you. And that is not fake.

If you hurt me, I wouldn't cry. I would hurt you back.
The Cruel Prince, TFOTA, Holly Black
People have their time stamps on how long you should know someone before earning the right to say it, but I wouldn’t lie to you no matter how little time we have. People waste time and wait for the right moment and we don’t have that luxury. If we had our entire lives ahead of us I bet you’d get tired of me telling you how much I love you because I’m positive that’s the path we were heading on. But because we’re about to die, I want to say it as many times as I want—I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you.
