Groomsmen—LA’s top five blandest white guys—
🤣🤣 not LA's top five blandest white guys 🤣🤣🤣🤣
“Apologies for the inconvenience of being a type-one diabetic,” Ash says calmly but sharply. “I can drop dead if you prefer.”
It’s not trauma; it’s spicy sadness.”
“You’re the one with a podcast about…potatoes?” Nathaniel grinds a fist against his forehead. “Please don’t ask him about it.” “That’s right. Tater Talks.”
“We need a task force that stops white men from starting podcasts for no reason.”
If this isn't a god damn fact...
It wasn’t fair. Cheaters like Jakob get to survive. Love again. Fuck another person over again. While their victims have to wear the battle scars.
Ash should come with a disclaimer. Catlike and beautiful, with random acts of violence. And still, all he wants to do is get close. Experience her light.
“My morbid little beauty.”
His beautiful creature. His dangerous obsession.
I dodged a fucking bullet. I should have known he was bad news when he spelled his name with a fucking K.”
True
Cheating on a partner then gaslighting them to think they’re the one with the problems is a whole different level of disrespect.
big facts 😤😤😤
“But you’re also a beautiful, brilliant pain in the ass. My pain in the ass. You make this bullshit world better.”
With him, she doesn’t have to be invincible. Even if he makes her feel like she is. He makes her feel safe. Secure. Happy. So damn happy.
“I carried you on a beach, saved you from a mountain, stabbed you in the thigh with a needle. You think I’m leaving now?”
Shit. That’s what she’s doing. Waiting for it to end, to break, to snap. Isn’t she? Treating him like temporary when every single one of his words, every action proves otherwise.
“Just do what you love, and I’ll make sure you’re happy.”
“I love your mean. I know I will always get the right order at a restaurant because of you.”
“I’ll love you enough for the both of us.”
“Grief and love coexist,”
“You can’t have one without the other. You have to take the good with the bad. And when you do, you’ll find the bad doesn’t matter as much as the good.”
Love isn’t about fixing yourself so that someone loves you. It’s about finding the right person to love you as you are.
“I will give it all to you, Ash, but you have to fucking let me.”
Apparently, she’ll never stop swooning for her Very Tall Asshole.
This man who never fails to have her scoffing or sighing. Who calls her by her full name when he’s serious. Who has never asked her to change herself or put her life on hold. Who holds her dreams and helps her chase them. Every day, he makes her love herself better than she ever has.
