Favorite Passage:
"A boy that I'm seriously, deeply, madly... in love with. And he taught me the most important thing of all- to put an emphasis on life."

This passage culminates how the Layken feels about Will (the teacher) despite all the obstacles to be together.

Food Item: Hot Cocoa
I envision the warmth of the liquid and the sweetness of chocolate as a refection of the main characters' love for each other.
