Kindle Notes & Highlights
“I don’t know where this marshmallow filling inside you is coming from, but I’m all about it,” I mumbled, hearing how shaky that came out. Even my bones felt his laugh. “You know you have nothing to be scared of. I’m your sneaky shit.”
“What my grandmother showed me was you crawling on the floor with a baby on your back. My baby. Our baby. It was so real, he smelled just like you.”
“There is no place I wouldn’t look for you. Seven miles deep in the ocean. On a planet in a distant galaxy. I would go anywhere for you if someone took you, Gracie,”
“I know your parents let you down, but I would never. All those things I promised I’d never do, wouldn’t mean shit to me if it came down to you or anyone we made together in the future. All those things we worry about Grandmother doing wouldn’t be anything compared to what I would be capable of. Nothing and no one is ever going to hurt you again. I won’t let it happen.”
“You’re talking about mass destruction, and I don’t think I’ve ever been so attracted to you.”
“I didn’t want to like you. I didn’t plan on feeling this protective of you and your smile and your heart. Definitely didn’t want to fall in love with you and your secrets. But then you had to go off and say, ‘You snooze you lose, motherfucker,’ and I knew my life was never going to be the same after that.”
“And I don’t want it to be.”
“I think I tweaked something in my back, I came so hard.”
He laughed. Oh, he laughed. He laughed even as he hugged me. Naked on naked. I didn’t know then that was going to be the story of our lives… but it was. That’s what happens when you find your best friend.
