Jennifer L. Armentrout Quote

I like you, Mallory. And God knows you deserve a hell of a lot better than me. He dipped his chin, laughing as he thrust his hand through his hair. God. I suck at this. Can we just forget—I snapped out of it. You like me?His gaze flew to mine. Yeah, I do. And I know I’ve been with Paige and I’m not going to pretend that meant nothing, but it’s not how I feel for you. Not remotely like how I feel for you. And it’s not because of our past—because of you and I knowing each other for so long, he said, and the words kept coming out in a rush. At first, I thought that was why—this attraction I have to you. I thought it was because of everything we’d shared. And then the night I came to your place and you fixed me up, I thought it was just this physical thing. Pink raced across his cheeks. And it is most definitely a physical thing, but it wasn’t just that. I think part of me knew that from the very first time you said my name.Now my pulse was pounding. He liked-liked me. Oh my God, this was unexpected. This was totally unplanned. It was an infinite, vast sea of unknown.I know you deserve better, but I want to be better. I want to be for you.
