Mark of the Thief (Mark of the Thief, 1) by Jennifer A. Nielsen

“I stand with you, Nic, as an equal!” she said. “This is what friends do!”
“Not here!” I yelled.
“You asked me to stand with you!”
“Symbolically!”
“Can we fight about this later?” she asked.
I smiled over at her. If I won this fight, I would gladly engage in more arguments with her.

Inarguably, one of the best exchanges in the entire book! I know this is more than the allotted two sentences, but how could I possibly resist sharing the entire exchange between the two characters? I couldn't, that's how.
