Thomas loved me. He needed me. Maybe I wasn’t the first woman he’d loved, and maybe the kind of love a Maddox man felt lasted forever, but I needed him, too. I wasn’t the first, but I would be the last. That didn’t make me the second prize. It made me his forever.
I’ve never been so clear about anything in my life. I turned around, made my way to that room you were in, and there you were. Nothing else mattered. I didn’t even know if we would make it out or not, I just wanted to be where you were, whatever that meant. The only thing I’m afraid of is a life without you, Pigeon.
My jeans don’t know your jean well enough to be washed together.
It’s somewhere in the unforeseen when the best, most important moments of our lives seem to happen.
Your brother Trent. And Travis. And you’re Thomas. Who am I missing? Tiger and Toadstool?
You have to weigh the joy against the risk.
Love made people hate in a way they never would have before.
You must have voodoo in your hoohoo.
As far as everyone is concerned, I’m in love with you today and tomorrow.
Someone knew I’d need to hold your hand before I ever had one.
If I were going to give you my future, I’d need you to move on from the past.
Everything that’s happened since we met has led to this moment. There is only one woman I’ve loved before you, and there will never be another after you.
Holding my camera, freezing, and a mile from flames that could burn me alive, I’d finally found what I didn’t know I was looking for.
I love you, and I want to be with you forever.
I don’t need you to save me. I just need a little help to save myself.
To have everything and feel nothing was the worst kind of selfishness.
I’m a firefighter, Ellie. I do the saving in this relationship.
You think she’s been listening to Taylor Swift on her headphones in here?
Sometimes good-bye is a second chance. Clears your head. Anyway... missing someone makes you remember why you loved that person in the first place.
Taylor Maddox, sir. US Forest Service trash.
