21 " The plan was so freaking perfect. I barely stopped myself from busting out the maniacal laughter as the bell rang. "

22 " Do you solemnly swear?” I’d asked. She "
23 " I just worry about you, Sally.” I gave her hand a squeeze. Mom had been saying that since my fifth birthday when I’d asked for a light saber instead of a Barbie doll. "
24 " With every other girl vying for his attention, why the heck would he notice a bookworm like me?” And "
25 " Do you even hear yourself? Because you seriously sound like such a dork, right now—and a little like Spiderman.” “And as for my mouth being on you…” The words were like a shock to my system. “You should be so lucky, Sadie Day.” When we reached their house, I pulled into the driveway, shut off the engine and turned to face the boy who had always known just what to say to get under my skin. His pierced eyebrow was cocked like I’d known it would be. He wore his usual grin. Colton’s whole face was a mixture of smug and arrogant, and as usual, it pushed all my buttons. "

26 " Sadie, please,” he said, “as if you have room to talk after the reading you did for those horny old people. How often do you do that anyway? "
27 " Okay.” He nodded. “For your first task, I’m going to need you to grab my stick.” My eyes went saucer-wide. Did he really just say… “Wh-what?” “Damn.” Colton laughed quietly. “Get your mind out of the gutter, Sadie. "
28 " Alright. Bye, Mom.” “Bye, Baby.” I hit end and waved to her in the window, smiling as she waved back. I couldn’t be sure from this distance, but it looked like her eyes might’ve been a bit misty. When I finally turned to Colton, he was staring at me with an odd expression. “What?” I asked. “Did you just…call your mom to tell her you snuck out of the house?” he said slowly. I nodded as I pulled on my seatbelt and clicked it into place. “Of course. I didn’t want her to worry.” “You know that’s not how it’s usually done, right? The whole point of sneaking out is so your parents won’t know and get on your case about it.” “Yeah, but my mom’s cool. We have an understanding.” Colton shook his head in amazement. “You’re something else, Sadie Day. "
29 " going?” “Eric’s parents are out of town, so he’s throwing a party tonight,” he said. “I thought we’d go crash it. "
30 " God, what do you need it in blood or something?” He threw his head back. “I said yes, I’m in. No need to call anybody else. Dammit Sadie, I’ll dance with you. I’m your guy.” Again, my foolish heart skipped a beat, hearing a hidden meaning behind his words that wasn’t there. I shoved the emotion aside, smiling so big it hurt. “That’s all I wanted to hear. "
31 " Do I detect a hint of sarcasm? "
32 " Well…there’s that kiss from Spider-Man where he was upside down. "
33 " Everyone is struggling. Some people are just better at hiding it. "

36 " Fictional people are awesome. Real people often suck. It’s an indisputable fact. "
37 " Baylor O’Brien, "
38 " When he looks at you, does your heart feel like it’s about to leap out of your chest?” Tim gripped my shoulders, hands gentle but firm. “When he touches you, do you feel like you’re burning on the inside? Whenever you see him, do you just want to walk up to him and kiss his face off? "
39 " meine Freudin. I "
40 " Colton shook his head. “And he probably kisses ‘cute.’ Is that what you want? A ‘cute’ kisser, someone who’s so hesitant you don’t even know you’ve been kissed? Try again. "
