We were all like that in the carnival - mongrels who didn't call any place home, but everywhere was our kingdom and the road was our right.

The world was a hard place and she needed someone to look out for her. I just wished that she hadn't picked me.

You build walls so high, it feels like you'll never tear them down, and you don't want to either, because walls protect you." "Do...do you feel like that...with me?" Her voice was so soft I could barely hear her. "No, Sara. You took a wrecking ball through those walls."

I'd seen little chunks of light from the dark, somber man that I'd met, but once I'd broken through his impressive walls, he blazed with his own light, his own heat, and the incredible warmth of his kindness.

I stared at him doubtfully. The boy I'd known would never have hurt me--but he was long gone. I didn't know who Sebastian was anymore--he was a stranger.

E bello essere parte di qualcosa. E lo stesso motivo per cui amo insegnare. Mi piace essere parte della scuola, parte di un gruppo. Mi piace avere la mia classe attorno, i miei bambini, e insegnare loro nel modo che voglio, anche se devo seguire il programma e questo e davvero noioso. Tuttavia essere parte di qualcosa e importante.

I was looking at her. I felt grateful to be here: this woman, this time, this place. Second chances didn't come any better.

I had no illusions about my role. Prince Charming with a price tag. I was the fantasy lover and like all fantasies, I vanished before dawn.

Honey, if you're not sure it was a date, then it wasn't. A guy has to ask you on a date for it to be a date. It's different from just hanging out together.

My most precious memories were closely guarded secrets and I only looked at them occasionally, taking them out of my Pandora's Box of the past, to treasure and enjoy, then carefully replace and lock away. As the years passed, I looked less and less; because, perhaps, I felt there was more to look forward to. And this was new.

I you," I stated. "I like you" He raised an eyebrow. "You like me?" I smiled at him and turned away, my eyes closing. Slowly, I let my hand creep towards his, our fingers twining together. "?Yes, I like you," I repeated simply. There was a be3at of silence, then he said, "Your Dad isn't going to like..." "No, he isn't." "And Kes isn't going to..." "Probably not." "And I'll be travelling..." "I know." "And you'll be in San Francisco.....

Won't you even try?" He closed his eyes, a pained look on his face. "Is that really what you want, Terra? A guy like me?" I shook my head. "No, Tucker. I don't want a guy you. I want you."

I don't know if I can be the man you need, Tera," he said, his voice dropping to a whisper. "I don't know anything about the kind of upbringing you've had ... I don't think I'm enough for you, but fuck it, I'm going to try."

Do I think I'm good enough for her? Hell no. Do I want her to give up her life to follow me around the country? No fucking way. But whatever she wants, I'll break every bone in my body to give it to her.

I don't know what this is, Maggie, what's happening here, but it feels good. Real good. And I don't want it to stop. I have absolutely no fucking control when I'm making love to you. And that's what I want to do. Right now.

We'll make it work," he said, a mixture of confidence and despair etched on his face. "If we both want it, we'll make it work."
