summary: “It’s not the end of the world, you know,” he heard her say as he was leaving. “Just when you think it should be, it never is.”
It was this that made him despise himself. He asked himself this shameless question over and over again, and every time it made him feel worse than the last: how could he grieve over his best friend’s death when she was around? It was cruel that the two had to be paired this way, that they couldn’t in any way be separated, that every time he tried to scope his mind on his loss he got swept away by her, as if suddenly she’d become an overwhelming force with iron jaws. He couldn’t stand himself, standing there with the rest of the crying crowd. His reunion with his best friend in four years and it was sullied beyond repair because he was in love with his sister.
He left before it was finished. He went to his car, locking himself in and slumping in his seat, digging his palms into the sockets of his eyes. He felt safer there. The more distance, the better, the more the adolescent and immature pining became bearable. The more he could grieve appropriately, respectfully. The less he’d feel like an undeserving asshole.

Summary: She kissed you, and it had been new, but soft, and thrilling. Sorry, she'd said, a lovely blush of embarrassment creeping across her face. But even then you knew she didn't have a single sorry bone in her body. Tobias/Rachel.
( Rachel, painted in flowers and wrath and blood, in stars and galaxies and teeth and hymns, who loved a boy that just wanted to fly away. )
