It was not enough to be the last guy she kissed. I wanted to be the last one she loved. And I knew I wasnβt. I knew it, and I hated her for it. I hated her for not caring about me. I hated her for leaving that night, and I hated myself , too, not only because I let her go but because if I had been enough for her, she wouldnβt have even wanted to leave. She would have just lain with me and talked and cried, and I would have listened and kissed at her tears as they pooled in her eyes. β¨ John Green (2008). Looking for Alaska, p.127, Penguin
