That earns him a smack with my book bag. Ow. He clutches his arm. What do you have in there? Books? A grin snakes across his face. I like my women feisty. He adds, I like my broken.

Miracles don't happen. You make them happen. They're not wishes or dreams or candles on a cake. They're not impossible. Reality is real. It's totally and completely under my control.
Julie Anne Peters

She responds by kissing me harder and longer and deeper. She loves me too. She's just afraid.

You still have, I looked at my watch, twelve seconds to change your mind. Find someone else and save your reputation. One side of his lip cricked up. I found you. I'll take my chances.

You would never understand, Kim. You think I'm normal you wish I was.

Yeah, I loved her. I couldn't help it. She was my brother.

As they were carting him off on a gurney, all I could think was, I wish that was me.
Julie Anne Peters

Yet, when we talked, when we were together, she seemed so familiar. Seemed to know who I was, where I was coming from. She knew me better than I knew myself, I think. She was easy to be with. And I wanted to be with her, like all the time.
