14 " She beams at me and it’s almost enough to make up for the fact that I’m harder than trigonometry right now. Almost. "
15 " Her green eyes meet mine in the Guinness mirror behind the bar and it feels like all the air has been sucked out of the room. I’ve never slept with this girl, but she was the first I remember wanting.Harper Gray. "
