Kindle Notes & Highlights
“He did die, Ollie. Elsa brought him back to life, thank fuck. I would’ve rioted.” I nearly cut off the circulation to her hand by gripping it so tight while I waited, hoping the funny snowman would reappear.
I cdied as well so it's fine
“I think I was thinking the same thing, but maybe in different ways. I didn’t know how to step forward, because I’d never gone in that direction before. And then when I wanted to step forward, you wanted to leave, and it was confusing.”
Yeeeeesss talk about your feelings
I don’t think she noticed though, so I’m probably safe. Totally in control. I’ve got this.
You don't??
sword of thunder,
Yet again, ew
“That was the most impressive round of word vomit I’ve ever heard.
I second that
I make scissors with my right hand and snap them twice. “Snip-snip.”
Girl no ahahahahahah
“Fuck slow,” he growls. “I can’t do slow. Not with you.”
He clears his throat, gaze dropping. “I…I missed you while you were gone.”
Aawww bby
“I’ve never felt so fucking powerless. That’s why I’m gonna kiss you now instead of waiting until the end of our date like I promised myself I would, okay?”
The confirmation thooo omg too cute
“Can I feel your face, Olivia?”
Lol
Carter’s cheeks burn bright. He’s so cute it hurts.
Aaaawwww Carter I can't
“You do not call your dick your sword of thunder.”
I did not believe it either
“The day I met Hank, my dad was in a car accident. It was barely five in the morning, and the driver was still drunk from the night before.”
F*ck drunk drivers, honestly
“‘I know you’re not about to drive, Mr. Beckett,’ he said. ‘You’ve had way too much to drink and have too much to lose. There are people here who depend on you. Don’t make a stupid decision that you’ll regret the rest of your life, if you even live to see it, just because you’re hurting right now.’”
Omg I love Hank
“Don’t you dare,” I growl, reeling on Brad. He backs himself up against the wall, shaky hands in the air as I step into him. An entire foot taller than me and this boy is scared of me right now. “Finish that sentence and see what happens, Brad, I dare you. I may be small, but I will put you in the ground and bury you six feet deep. Nobody will find you, Brad. Nobody.”
Uhm yes queen tell the little brat
“Auntie Ollie is breaking up with him.”
Who xdoes he think he is?!
“You can’t honestly believe you’re the girl Carter Beckett is going to change for.”
Naaaaaahhh f*ck him!
Jeremy throws his hands in the air with an exasperated exhale. “I said can you get your stupid boyfriend to sign my stupid jersey!”
No
I’m not sure my reaction is the best. I throw my hands in the air and scream, accidentally shoving her off my lap and to the ground when I rocket to my feet and yell out, “I have a girlfriend!”
No, this is the best reaction you could have
“I miss you. Is that weird? Should I be telling you that? Or keeping it to myself? You don’t have to say it back. Don’t be pressured or anything. I just—”
Aww bby is rambling again
I’ve heard that name at least five times in the last four days and I still can’t wrap my head around it.
YOU UNDERSTAND ME
“I like you so much,” he blurts. “I like everything about you. Is that right? Is it okay to tell you how much I like you or am I supposed to keep it to myself? Tell you once and never talk about it again? Tell you every single day? I don’t know, Ollie; I’m new at this. All I know is I really wanted to tell you, and also, I’m super fucking terrified.”
“I don’t wanna mess this up.”
Omg he's almost making me shed a tear
“I wanna be your anything.”
“How about my everything?”
Omg yes please
Like you lots,
Aaahhhh I love this!
“She’s a tiny, slutty little puck bunny, isn’t she? I’m gonna rip her in two.”
Nah mate don't talk about anyone like that for any reason
“Say one more fucking word about her and you’re gonna be spitting chiclets.”
Yeeeessss tell him
“Whatever it takes.” A promise I intend to keep.
As you should
Don’t think it, don’t think it, don’t think it. Poor Adam. Damnit. I thought it.
Everyone would've thought that
I know you, Olivia, so be real with me. If you’re scared, tell me you’re scared, but don’t spew your accusations like they’re the truth just because you’re too afraid to come right out and admit it.”
“You said you were all in. You said that, Ollie, but I gotta be honest, this thing you’re doing feels a whole lot like you’ve already got one foot out the door, ready to bail as soon as things go sideways. And I can’t…I can’t do this.”
I mean, he's speaking facts
“You wanna fight, get your self-doubt out, that’s fine. But you’re gonna do it with me, at my house, together.”
He's so thoughtful for someone who hasn't been in a relationship before this
She’s letting her insecurities take hold, root in her brain and force her words. Those intrusive thoughts dare her to try, to see if I care enough to fight for this. They tell her I don’t, that I’d rather walk away, but they’re wrong. She’s wrong.
Yeeeess fight for her
“Your tears are not a weakness, so stop trying to hide them. Don’t be sorry for showing me how you feel. Being vulnerable with each other is how we learn to be the best versions of ourselves as partners. When you show me the type of love you need, I learn how to give it to you.”
He understands everything
“You have a big heart, Ollie, and with a big heart comes big emotions. Some of those are fears, insecurities, and that’s okay.”
I need someone to tell me this
And also the size of my sword of thunder.
Please pretty please stop
he’s wearing the most adorable smile, maybe a little shy,
He’s vibrating with excitement, and I can tell it’s taking everything in him to be gentle, to accommodate my short legs and not yank me along behind him as he leads me into his bedroom.
Ahahaha that's cute
“But the rose petals were all me. And the candles.” He couldn’t look prouder.
Omg such a sweet bby
“You’re my favorite everything, Ollie.”
Omg!!!
That’s precisely why I woke her up at the crack of dawn with my head between her legs and haven’t let her go back to sleep since.
Okayyy
That’s also probably why she’s passed the fuck out on my lap right now, not even stirring at the way I keep shouting at my TV.
Makes sense I wouldn't wake up either
“Then you should’ve knocked, because I was almost balls d—”
Dude not when she's meeting your family FOR THE FIRST TIME!!
“So much for that big, bad fuckboy rep you’ve been rocking all these years.”
“You’re too small to make a decent human shield.”
She considers it for all of a split second before she says, “Ah, fuck it,” and sidesteps behind Olivia, gripping her biceps and ducking behind her shoulders.
“Ah, here we are. First order of business…which one of you called Miss Parker a puck bunny last Monday?”
Yes get him
“We should have a sleepover,” Alannah says as we head out to the parking lot. “One day, maybe. Like, if you wanted to. I know how to make pancakes.”
Aaaaahhh I love her
“Deal. You make Oreo pancakes and I’ll make Oreo brownies. We’ll have an Oreo-themed slumber party.”
