Feels Quote by Elizabeth Noble
““I don't remember why it all went so wrong. I mean, I do remember. I remember what i did. I just don't remember why anymore. This - you and me - this feels so right. It just seems stupid - so stupid - that we had it before, and we let it go. We wasted so much time. I'm sorry.' She was close to tears. 'Hey. Don't. There's no point in that. It's the past, and that's where it belongs. This is us now. We're here.' But where's here? We're hiding out. We're playing house. This isn't real life.' 'It feels real to me.' 'But it isn't.””
