    “You were happy last night. This morning is a different story."

    "You think I have a hangover. I don't. Well a little headache, but not much. Just let this be a warning to you if you keep me from sleeping again tonight."

    "I kept you from sleeping? I kept you from sleeping?" he repeated incredulously. "You are the same woman who shook me out of a sound sleep at two a.m. yesterday morning, aren't you?"

    "I didn't shake you. I kind of bounced on you, but I didn't shake you."

    "Bounced," he repeated.

    "You had a hard-on. I couldn't let it go to waste, could I?"

    "You could have woke me up before you started not to let it go to waste."

    "Look," she said exasperated, "If you don't want used, don't lie on your back with it sticking up like that. If that isn't an invitation, I don't know what is."

    "I was asleep. It does that on its own." It was doing it on its own right know, as a matter of fact. It poked her in the stomach.

    She looked down... and smiled. It was a smile that made his testicles draw up in fear.

    With a sniff, she turned her back on him and ignored him as she finished showering.

    "Hey!" he said, to get her attention. Alarm was in his tone. "You aren't going to let this one go to waste are you?”
    Linda Howard, Mr. Perfect

    Sherrilyn Kenyon
    “It's easy to look at people and make quick judgments about them, their present and their past, but you'd be amazed at the pain and tears a single smile hides. What a person shows to the world is only one tiny facet of the iceberg hidden from sight. And more often then not, it's lined with cracks and scars that go all the way to the foundation of their soul.”
    Sherrilyn Kenyon, Acheron

    “Albus Severus," Harry said quietly, so that nobody but Ginny could hear, and she was tactful enough to pretend to be waving to Rose, who was now on the train, "you were named for two headmasters of Hogwarts. One of them was a Slytherin and he was probably the bravest man I ever knew.”

"Three Dementor attacks in a week, and all Romilda Vane does is ask me if it’s true you’ve got a Hippogriff tattooed across your chest."
    Ron and Hermione both roared with laughter. Harry ignored them.
    What did you tell her?"
    I told her it's a Hungarian Horntail," said Ginny, turning a page of the newspaper idly. "Much more macho."
    Thanks," said Harry, grinning. "And what did you tell her Ron’s got?"
    A Pygmy Puff, but I didn’t say where.”

    I turned my back to him with a shrug. “I named my ovaries, too, but they don’t get out as much.”
