I felt like my lungs weren’t big enough to breathe her in, and my heart couldn’t beat fast enough to love her the way I wanted to.
I felt curiously adrift, as if the ties to my life were unraveling one by one.
I don’t know what this is, Maggie, what’s happening here, but it feels good. Real good. And I don’t want it to stop. I have absolutely no fucking control when I’m making love to you. And that’s what I...
I don’t deserve you, he said, softly. I don’t deserve to feel anythin’ other than shit for what I’ve done.
I cocked my head on one side. Is that what we have? A relationship? Kes looked taken aback. Well, yeah. Then he hesitated, What would you call it? Well, at the moment, I’d say it’s two old friends cat...
I WANT YOU SCREAMINGMY NAMEI WANT YOU TO SAY ITWASN'T A MISTAKE
Honey, if you're not sure it was a date, then it wasn't. A guy has to ask you on a date for it to be a date. It's different from just hanging out together.

I’m so fucking happy you’re here, he said, resting his forehead against mine.I’m not just here, I whispered. I’m home.
