I don’t know why I was so mean to you when we were kids. I think now I was afraid of the way I felt for you.

I love everything about you and always will.” She looked up from the page, and I swear to God I thought smoke was going to puff out of her ears.”

"But if he did," she pushed. "What would you do?"

"Hmmm. Is he wearing clothes?"

"Let's say he's shirtless."

"Damn. Is his hair doing that thing in the front?"

"Definitely. And he smells good. Like, really good."

"Ugh, that's so annoying." I sighed. "Ideally, I like to think I'd be strong enough to be the first female in his life to resist him." Turning around, I faced her. "Realistically, though, I'd probably think about it for two seconds, then jump his bones."

She cackled with glee. "I knew it.”
