Blue eyes Quote by John Green

“And for those two minutes we just stared at each other, and I watched the blue in her eyes. It was nice - in the dark and the quiet, with no possibility of me saying anything to screw it up, and her eyes looking back, like there was something in me worth seeing.” quote by John Green
