1 " I kissed him gently, not wanting to scare him. A soft press of my lips on his, nothing more. Time slowed to a crawl. Then Christian moved his lips, pressing harder, a gentle demand for more. "
― Charlie Novak , Breakaway (Off the Pitch, #1)
2 " You. You’re what I look for, Christian. "
3 " Every time he told me that he really liked me, my face turned neon pink, and my whole body glowed with happiness. I never thought I’d feel like this again. I never thought I’d meet anyone who could make me feel like this. I couldn’t remember the last time I’d felt this happy. All I knew was that it had been a while. "
4 " Christian’s mouth parted with a soft moan that set fire to my body. My tongue darted out to taste the lingering sweetness of toffee popcorn decorating his lips. I needed his kisses more than I needed oxygen. "
5 " Christian’s lips were soft, softer than I remembered. How had I forgotten this? But his kiss was hesitant, unsure even. As if he had forgotten how to be kissed. "
6 " I reached up to gently caress his jaw, holding him steady because I was so sure that this was just another dream. That at any moment he’d vanish into thin air and I’d be left howling at the wind. "
7 " He turned in my arms, looking up at me with the most beautiful face I’d ever seen. He was so exquisite it took my breath away. "
8 " I couldn’t help the little chuckle that shook my body. He was such a dork. But he was my dork, and that was something that filled me with such happiness I thought I might burst. "
