74 " He closes his eyes, bites his lip, and moans so deep a few of the women watching lean in toward him. “God, Layla . . .” He groans. “Don’t mention soccer balls when we’re in public. They get me so hot.” He lowers one cup to his crotch, but I rip it from his hand before he’s able to follow through. “Hey, I was playing with that,” he says with a childlike pout. "

75 " I don’t want her to see me as a married man. I don’t want her to see me as a pastor. I want her to know I’m a warm-blooded male who has his eyes set on her and I’m capable of being the kid of man she needs. "

78 " There is nothing you could tell me that I won’t love you through.”… I continue to hold her eyes. “There is nothing you could say or do that I won’t love you through. "
79 " Be with me.”“I don’t understand.”“Be my…” Girlfriend? Fuck, why is this so awkward? Probably because you’ve never done it before, shitface. “I want you to be mine. Only mine. "
