“Just as long as you’re not about to throw Bible verses at me.” “Oh God, no. That’s not my thing.”
😂😂
“Or maybe she panics when she realizes you’re more than ten feet away.” Jules blushed, then felt embarrassed for blushing because Simon might take it the wrong way, which only made her blush harder.
