“If I’m around, you don’t touch your wallet. I don’t care what it is, just know that I got it because I got you. You hear me?”

“I don’t say it when I address other women because those other women aren’t you.”
“But books help. I like reading.
I just liked sharing space with her. Even if it was one hour a week. Even if it was across the room. And when I walked in her house earlier and saw some of the recommendations I’d given her at the top of her stack, it made a nigga feel good.
“If you don’t like what we’re doing, we can stop. But don’t feed me the same lies that some motherfucker who couldn’t handle you fed you.”
“I ain’t them, Doublemint. Don’t put me in that box.”
“That’s all you. Don’t ever tell me you’re not good at this. You got my shit jumping out of my chest from a kiss.”
“I think you’re as close to perfect as it gets, Ryann. You know any man that fumbled you was a fucking clown, right? That shit has nothing to do with you.”
“You’re fucking amazing at this. And I won’t stop telling you that until you know that shit like you know your name.”
the way she said my name lit something in me that told me she could ask me for anything in that moment and I’d move heaven and hell to get it for her.
“I’m so fucking lucky.” She shook her head like
“Tell me how lucky I am, Ryann.”
There was no way I was letting this woman slip through my fingers. Not a chance in hell.
“You know I only go for you, right?”
“To that boring ass book club.”
“If you can still remember how many, then I haven’t done my job. I want you cumming until you lose count, mama.”
“Tell me how good it feels, Ryann.” “Bash, please stop asking me to speak. I can’t!”
“Lean in to the moment and let it happen however it’s gonna happen.
“Fine and mine.”
“Yours?”
“Mine,” I repeated. “And if I wasn’t clear last night, let me be crystal clear right now—last night was just the beginning. You hear me?”
There was something about a man who didn’t mind feeding me that would always sit right with me.
“I know we touched on it before, but I need you to fully understand how serious I am about this. About us. You deserve whatever the fuck you want in this life, and I plan to give it to you. You don’t know how long I’ve wanted this time with you. And now that I know you don’t have a nigga, I’m not letting up because that’s a spot I’m trying to fill.”
