    Suzanne Collins
    “I'm going to wake Peeta," I say.
    "No, wait," says Finnick. "Let's do it together. Put our faces right in front of his."
    Well, there's so little opportunity for fun left in my life, I agree. We position ourselves on either side of Peeta, lean over until our faces are inches frim his nose, and give him a shake. "Peeta. Peeta, wake up," I say in a soft, singsong voice.
    His eyelids flutter open and then he jumps like we've stabbed him. "Aa!"
    Finnick and I fall back in the sand, laughing our heads off. Every time we try to stop, we look at Peeta's attempt to maintain a disdainful expression and it sets us off again.”
    ― Suzanne Collins, Catching Fire

    Suzanne Collins
    “Finnick?" I say, "Maybe some pants?"
    He looks down at his legs as if noticing his outfit for the first time. Then he whips off his hospital gown leaving him in just his underwear. "Why? Do you find this" -- he strikes a ridiculously provocative pose -- "distracting?"
    I laugh. Boggs looks embarrassed and Finnick looks more like the guy I met at the Quarter Quell”

    Cassandra Clare
    “Out of the corner of her eye she thought she saw Jace shoot her a look of white rage - but when she glanced at him, he looked as he always did: easy, confident, slightly bored.
    "In future, Clarissa," he said, "it might be wise to mention that you already have a man in your bed, to avoid such tedious situations."
    "You invited him into bed?" Simon demanded, looking shaken.
    "Ridiculous, isn't it?" said Jace. "We would never have all fit."
    "I didn't invite him into bed," Clary snapped. "We were just kissing."
    "Just kissing?" Jace's tone mocked her with its false hurt. "How swiftly you dismiss our love.”
