She turned to look at him, and he was already looking at her. “I’m going to miss you when I wake up, ” she whispered, because she realized that she must have fallen asleep under the sun. Arin was too real for her imagination. He was a dream.“ Don’t wake up, ” he said. Marie Rutkoski
About This Quote

When school is over you have to face the reality that when you wake up from sleep, you have to go back to your daily routine. You have to face the fact that life goes on and people will move on with their lives without you. The only hope one has in this situation is to make a dream a reality. When she met Arin she felt like she was going to miss him when he woke up from sleep.

She had never experienced such a thing before, but then she realized that it was possible. In the end, that hope was realized and she is now waking up from sleep each morning knowing that she can live out her dreams.
