Kindle Notes & Highlights
I’m tired of trying to get better, it’s much more exhausting than pretending I’m well,
“My name is Memphis to you unless…unless we’re in class.” I manage not to say unless I’m inside you, which was what I really wanted to tell her.
As soon as Memphis turns around, he looks at my dripping fingers and steps forward with the towel. I reach for the fabric, but he just wraps it over my hands and gently massages my fingers, drying them for me. It’s strangely intimate. Hell, even sharing the sink with them felt like a big deal.
