“Um, I have to work on Monday.” “When do you get off?” “As often as my wrist will allow.”
“Gray says that to me all the time. Trust your gut. But my gut also told me that getting a perm last summer was a good idea, so what does that bitch know?”
“Currently impersonating a duck.” He crept toward the desk. “A duck?” “You know, all calm and chill over the water but their feet are going like crazy underneath. That’s me. Only the feet are my brain.
“Not my fault you’ve got a muffin butt. It’s squeezable, so I squeezed it.” He shrugged. I smirked. “Did I complain?” “Nope. Which is why I kept doing it. Your butt was basically my fidget spinner tonight.”

They always told us that their first job is being parents, and their second job is being a partner.
You’re…you’re a breath of fresh air after a storm. You brighten the room just by being in it, and you’re one of the most interesting people I’ve ever met. I never know what you’re going to say next, and I can honestly say that the time I’ve spent with you has been the most fun I’ve had in years.”
I’d learned a long time ago that bullies didn’t like it when you didn’t fight back. Malcolm was a bully, and I refused to stoop to his level.
