1 " He pecks my lips. I knew you were the one the second I laid eyes on you. The one to bring me back to life.‘How did you know?’ He’s talking. I need to extract as much from him as possible.He looks me straight in the eyes. They are bursting with meaning. ‘Because my heart starting beating again.' He whispers. "

2 " We need to make friends. "
3 " Ava, why the fuck am I handcuffed to the bed? "
4 " I knew you were the one the second I laid eyes on you.''The one?''The one to bring me back to life. "
5 " Damn you, Jesse Ward, of an age I don't know! "
6 " I want the woman with me who keeps my heart beating. "
7 " Unravel your knickers, lady "
8 " I am confident, because you said yes. Or was it....." He looks up to the ceiling in deep thought and then back at me. "Oh, I remember. It was...yes, yes, yes, fucking hell, yes! "
9 " I want you here when I go to sleep." He licks my bottom lip. "And I want you here when I wake up. Starting and ending my day with you is all I need. "
10 " Where you're concerned, I'll try my best, Ava. I already told you, I've waited too long for you. You're my little piece of heaven. Nothing will rob you from me. Nothing. "
11 " You're mine, and mine alone, baby. Just for my eyes, just for my touch and just for my pleasure. Just mine. Do you understand me? "
12 " It's pure bliss, baby. Total gratification. Absolute, complete earth shifting, universe shaking love. "
13 " I can't find my breath. "
14 " I'll die loving you, Ava. "
15 " I want to be your life. "
16 " You're so handsome." I mumble dreamily, as he starts working the cream over every inch of my back. "I think I'll keep you forever. "
17 " As long as I have you, I have purpose and reason. That is why I won't be drinking and that is why I will do everything in my power to keep you safe. Understand? "
18 " Promise me you'll never leave me. "
19 " I'm going to make you happy for the rest of my life, baby. Lets dance. "
20 " You were drunk. I wanted to hear the words when you were of sound mind. Women get drunk all the time and confess their undying love to me. "
