Kindle Notes & Highlights
“None of those women were you.” His steel blue eyes focus on mine. “What?” “They were not you.”
“It’s always been you, Mia. I tried to trick myself into thinking I could be with someone else, that I could want someone else.” His head shakes back and forth with a nearly sarcastic scoff. “But the truth is, I’ve just always been avoiding the fact that I didn’t actually want any of them. Because I want you.”
it means we are trying this? Right? A test run?” she says hesitantly. I pull back in amusement at her word choice. “Oh yeah? Just a trial for you?” I quip, grabbing the key for the jet ski and hopping on. “I’m fully invested. I don’t need a trial period, sign me up right now, Clark.”
“We’re together, Mia. I’m yours. And I’m not going to wait another fucking second without taking what’s always been mine.”
“Your love language is definitely physical touch,” I say as his hands run down my back, cupping my ass. “You are my love language.”
“Since you want to have such a fucking attitude lately, let’s put that mouth to better use, Smalls. Get. On. Your. Knees.”
I think I’ll just see myself out at this point. I’m about to fall over and roll out the door and down the stairs for my best friend right now.
“You are without a doubt the most stunning woman I’ve ever seen, Mia Clark.”
“I didn’t want the world to see who I’d become. But I’ve never had to pretend around you. There are so many parts of me that I was ashamed of, so many cracks within the man I was. But you filled those cracks. Every single one, Mia. You filled them with understanding, with laughter and compassion, with love.
“Eres mi sol, mi luna y todas mis estrellas.” You are my sun, my moon and all my stars.
“I love you. I’ve loved you since before I really even knew what that word meant. I just knew it was you. It was always supposed to be you.”
“Well, I’ve always been your biggest fan.” “Yeah, but now I get to give you orgasms, so I’m really winning.”
Her hands go up into a heart shape and I mimic the gesture, not giving a fuck if anyone sees. Because I’m in love with my best friend and I don’t care who knows it.
My purpose. My future. The place I’m constantly running towards is her. My end zone is Mia.
