Late Quote by Laurie Faria Stolarz
““Hi,” I say, stopping right in front of him. “I missed you today in chemistry.” “I got to school a little late.” “But you left my house early,” I say, wondering what time he did in fact leave—if he waited until I fell asleep or stayed until the last possible moment. “I still overslept,” he explains. “I’m sorry if that was my fault.” “I think it was your fault.” He smiles wider. “Once I got home, I couldn’t really fall asleep. Too wound up, I guess.” “Because of all the drama with Adam?” He shakes his head and touches the side of my face, raising my chin slightly to kiss my lips.””
