“Losing people you love affects you. It is buried inside of you and becomes this big, deep hole of ache. It doesn't magically go away, even when you stop officially mourning.” ― Carrie Jones, Captivate
“He wipes his hand on his shirt. What? Did I drool on you?" A little." You're a wolf. You should be used to drool." That's low.” ― Carrie Jones, Need
“I like a lot of things that aren't good for me.” ― Carrie Jones, Need
“You know, life fractures us all into little pieces. It harms us, but it's how we glue those fractures back together that make us stronger.” ― Carrie Jones, Entice
“A pixie's true skin color is blue. Cookie Monster, Grover, and other lovable Muppets are also blue. Do not confuse the two. Muppets don't kill you. Usually.” ― Carrie Jones, Captivate
“It's hard to save the world when you can't save yourself” ― Carrie Jones, Need
“Loving you is a full-time job. It's a great job, don't get me wrong. It's the best job in the universe. But it's not easy.” ― Carrie Jones, Captivate
“I want you to want me because you want me, not because of grief, not because he is not here. I want you to love me for me. I want you to kiss me first and not because you need me to help you, but because you need to kiss me.” ― Carrie Jones, Entice

“Astley comes to my side. "Are you well?" "No," I tell him, voice hoarse. "I am not well. I am broken inside. I am broken almost all-the-way deep, and I don't know...I don't know if I can ever be unbroken, let alone well again”.” ― Carrie Jones, Entice
“Pixiophobia: a fear of Pixies.I made this up, but believe me it should be a word because it sure is a legitimate fear.” ― Carrie Jones, Need
“He's going macho again," Dev says, totally nonchalantly, while he unlocks the door.He's always going macho," Is adds. "It must be the wolf thing."I am not going macho. I am always macho," Nick says.” ― Carrie Jones, Captivate
“I start to grab it so I can it pass it to him. He reaches for it at the same time. Our fingers touch, and the moment they do the fluorescent lights overhead flicker and then fizzle out.Everyone moans, even though we can all still see. There's enough light from outside filtering in, just not enough for us to really focus on the finer details.Nick's fingers stroke mine lightly, so lightly that I'm almost not sure the touch is real. My insides flicker like the art room lights. They do not, however, fizzle. I turn my head to look him in the eye.He leans over and whispers, "It will be hard to be just your friend.” ― Carrie Jones, Need
“I promise you. You will survive this. Feel my hand. It is yours now, my queen. I promise you. I am yours.” ― Carrie Jones, Captivate
“He has an armload of irises and daisies and tulips and he presents them to me. "I didn't know what kind of flowers you like.""I like them all.""Yeah?""Yeah."He tries to hand them to me, but then remembers the cast. "I'll put them in water."Betty swoops in the room ridiculously fast and she grabs the flowers out of Nick's hands. "I'll take care of them. You lovebirds just sit on the couch and think swooning things at each other.” ― Carrie Jones, Need
