Kindle Notes & Highlights
What is your favorite subject?” “Right now, it’d be Introduction to Sleep. Actually, I bet I could test into the AP version if they offered it.”
No, it’s good to have a physical copy of everything you love.”
Is it possible that this rule is the reason he’s been so rude and reluctant to have me join—because it means we could never date?
I love crocheting. It’s very relaxing.”
Logan is wearing a blue flannel shirt over a T-shirt. The shirt is snug and does nothing to hide the definition in his arms and shoulders. His brown hair looks lighter in the sun, and it swoops just slightly over his left eye in a way that’s almost begging for me to reach out and brush it up onto his forehead. Basically, Logan is too hot for his own good (or mine) and I should have let him ignore me.
He better not try to flirt with my dwarf. She’ll flatten him.
“Most of what you say is funny.”
“If you think I concocted some scheme just so I had an excuse to talk to you, then you’re the most egotistical person I’ve ever met,” I reply in a tone that’s more self-assured than I feel. “My grandma is the one who spotted you because she was so desperate for a photo. I was too busy fangirling over Kashvi’s d20 earrings to notice you.” Rather than look annoyed, he only leans back against the driver’s side door and surveys me. “Well, that’s too bad,” he replies. “Because I noticed you.”
“I think it’s good to follow your passions in life,” Grandma continues. “Focus on what brings you happiness.”
I’m not popular and I don’t want to be.”
“Just because you don’t have moves doesn’t mean I don’t.”
“That’s good,” Sloane continues, “because they particularly love listening to your characters bicker. And flirt.” The others look a bit uncomfortable at that news, but Logan only laughs. “I guess we’ll have to keep it up, then.”
“Well, I’m happy to join the experiment, too, then; just tell me next time you’re going. It’ll give me another excuse to hang out with you.” I turn to him. “Are you looking for excuses?” “Always. I never want to avoid you, Quinn. But sometimes it feels like I need to, for both our sakes.”
“More guys staring at you. Not that I should be surprised when you look like you just walked out of their dreams.”
“No, stop.” Logan steps closer and takes hold of my arms. “Listen to me. I don’t know what this guy’s problem is, but it’s his problem. Not yours. You don’t need to change your clothes or what you say or how you act because of him. You’re not doing anything wrong.”
“Sometimes trouble can be good.
“You’re addicting, Quinn. I talk to you for a minute, and it makes me want to talk for an hour. I touch you for a second…” He brings his other hand up so I’m perfectly positioned to kiss him. “And I’m going to want more.”
“Then I’d have pressed you against that door and kissed you until the sun went down and I was your only source of heat.”
Everyone deserves to have someone in their life who loves them,
“You all deserve to be kicked in the butt.”
“All we can do is live it.” She looks straight in my eyes, her expression almost stern. “Live your life, Quinn. Every minute of it. Don’t drift through it—live it.”
