Sucker Punched Quotes

“When our breathing evens out, she sits up and looks down at me. “Where’s your phone?”

“In my jeans. Why?”

“We need it for round two.”

I frown, not understanding. My body isn’t the only thing that’s turned to mush. Macy’s literally fucked me stupid. “Why?”

“Absence makes the heart grow fonder, you know. You should try it sometime.”

Blake brushes past me, waltzing into the room uninvited. “I let you drive down with Declan and Savannah, didn’t I? That’s five hours of absence, so your heart should be plenty fond.”

“I wake up when a hand slips under my shirt and settles on my hip. I have no idea what time it is, but based on the angle of sunlight streaming through my window, I’m going to take a wild guess that it’s way too fucking early for Blake to be waking me up right now.

Especially since I didn’t go to bed until almost three in the morning.

I groan when Blake’s morning wood prods me in the ass. “Stick your yuletide log somewhere else. I’m sleeping.”

Kissing my shoulder, he grinds his erection against me. “Should I stick it in your chimney?”

“That depends. Is the chimney my ass?”

“Only if you want it to be.”

I laugh. “Yeah, no. That’s exit only.”

“Why does that not surprise me?”

I grin and glance over my shoulder. “What are you saying? That I’m a prude?”

“No. I’m saying that your asshole’s lived a very sheltered life.”

“I don’t.” I let that sink in before clearing my throat. “So your last boyfriend. You guys broke up because. . .?”

“Because he said he loved me.”

Wait, what? “Isn’t that a good thing? Isn’t that what girls want to hear?”

“Yeah, if they love him back.”

I wince. “That’s cold, Duchess.”

“I know.” Macy’s face twists with remorse. “I felt awful about it. He was really sweet and so nice, but I just didn’t feel the same way and I knew I never would. So I broke it off.”

“That poor bastard.” I mean it, too. I sure as hell wouldn’t want Macy to tell me to take a hike. “Did you at least give him breakup sex?”

“No.” Macy looks scandalized that I even suggested such a thing.



“Well now I really feel bad for him.” I laugh as she nudges my side with her shoulder.



She presses her lips together, like she’s trying to stop herself from smiling. “He listed the states whenever we had sex, to keep from coming too early. ”

I was wrong before. Now I’m laughing.

“And when he finally came, he’d shout out whatever state he was on.” She closes her eyes and grunts, “Idaho!”

I nearly piss myself from laughing so hard.

It takes me a good minute to finally catch my breath. “Did he go in alphabetical order?”

“Yeah.”

“And he only got to Idaho?”

“Needle dick here is so far up his own ass that he doesn’t realize they have company until I grab his wrist and wrench it back, making him cry out in pain. His eyes swing up to mine as I forcibly remove him from Macy. First they convey surprise, then outrage. He might’ve really laid into me if my fist hadn’t just smashed into his nose.

Shit.”

That fucker. The pink one was my favorite.”

“Leggings.

This girl constantly gives me shit about wearing them. Says they’re not “real” pants.

Whatever. If they have sleeves for my legs, leave my feet exposed, and I can pull them up to my hips, then they’re fucking pants”

“Thanks, Aunt Macy.”

My eyes start to water as I hug her tighter. Savannah’s not had an easy life. And even though she has no blood relatives to speak of, she’s still got family. Right here in this room, she’s got it. “I love you. You know that? And I’m going to love this kid like Dwight loves beets.”

Savannah laughs as she pulls back, wiping tears from her eyes. “I know you will.”

Oh, geez. This crying shit seems to be contagious. I laugh, using the sleeve of my sweater to wipe my face. “Damn it, who’s cutting onions?”

“At heart, I’m a good girl. I don’t sleep around. I get good grades. I don’t do drugs or smoke, and I don’t get drunk very often. Aside from my tendency to cuss like a sailor and the fact that I’m more sexually frustrated than a fifteen-year-old boy, I’m basically Sandra fucking Dee.”
