Cecelia Ahern Quotes
She was tired of hugging pillows, counting on blankets for warmth, and reliving romantic moments only in her dreams.

Each morning the weight on her shoulders got heavier and heavier and each morning she wished for night to fall quickly so she could return to her bed to hug her pillows and wrap herself in the warmth of her blankets.
