““Being in love is a very strange thing. Your thoughts constantly drift towards this other person, no matter what your doing. You could be reaching for a glass in the cupboard or brushing your teeth or listening to someone tell a story, and your mind will just start drifting towards their face, their hair, the way they smell, wondering what they'll wear, and what they'll say the next time they see you.””
