    Summary

    "Daniel," He said, the rain soaking his clothes so that they were nearly see-through. "There's only one person in this world who truly knows me, please." Jack was practically begging me at this point. Weak and begging in the rain.

    "It won't work! We're outcasts, freaks, oh, god knows what! We have nowhere to go—"

    Jack leaned in and put his lips on mine. I wanted to feel this way forever, and I wanted him forever.

    Summary

    I have always been inclined to reserve all judgments, a habit that has opened up many curious natures to me and also made me the victim of not a few veteran bores; but even I have limits, and that afternoon, as the clock in my home traced a languid path toward three, I found myself judging Gatsby.

    He had missed luncheon. 

    Now, there are men who miss appointments as they miss trains—casually, with the shrug of one accustomed to the world adjusting itself around them. Gatsby was not such a man. He possessed, instead, a species of attentiveness that made one feel singular in his presence, as though he had cleared a space in the firmament solely for you to stand in. If he said he would meet you at one, he arrived at twelve-fifty with a smile already prepared. If he was detained, some explanation—charming, elaborate, faintly improbable—would arrive in his stead. Silence did not belong to him. 

    When Gatsby fails to show up to lunch, Nick gets worried and goes to check on him. Turns out Gatsby's business is more dangerous than Nick knew.
