1 " Messy hair, uncombed, gel-free, un-styled and perfectly imperfect. "
― Jasinda Wilder , Stripped (Stripped, #1)
2 " Grey, just breathe. I love you. Unless you can tell me, without lying, that you dont love me back, then everything's going to be okay... "
3 " I want to kiss you whenever I feel like it. I want to tell you when you’re being ridiculous. I want to make love to you. I want to fuck you. I want to hold you. I want to be yours. "
4 " You’re so fucking gloriously gorgeous that I literally cannot stand it. I’m having to remind myself to keep breathing, because you take my breath away. "
5 " He’s brought me breakfast. In bed. Andhe’s done it shirtless. Women of America, be jealous. "
6 " I’m a guy. I pee and I miss the toilet. I take shits. I eat cheeseburgers. I watch baseball and drink beer. "
7 " You make me feel alive, Grey. And… I love that feeling. "
8 " You know I’ve put on, like, fifteen pounds of muscle since I met you? Because you get me worked up and then I can’t get off on my own because if feels wrong, and I need to let it out, so I work out. You turn me on, just breathing. "
9 " Words can lie. Words can deceive and delude and conceal and avoid. But the things you do, how you move, how you touch, those things cannot lie. "
10 " It’s simple, Grey. I’m a spoiled brat. I’ve always gotten what I want. Always. And I want you all to myself. I don’t want you working there anymore, and I knew you’d fight me on it, so I took the fight away from you. I don’t care how much it costs, I have to have you all to myself. "
11 " And you were this… this glorious creature. You were like an angel, trapped in hell. "
12 " He’s all there is. All there will ever be. I’m falling through eternity, and his touch is the fabric of that forever. His kiss is the substance of infinity. These thoughts make no sense even to my own mind, but they remain true in some strange way. "
13 " I’m that horribly obnoxious kind of person who’s always had everything and owns the fucking world, okay? But I’m not entitled to you. I have to earn you. "
14 " Grey, just breathe. I love you. Unless you can tell me, without lying, that you dont love me back, then everything's going to be okay... "
15 " You exude this effortless sensuality, but it’s— I don’t know, it’s not sexual, somehow. Like, it should be, considering what you do, but it’s not. It’s sensual, this weird mix of innocence and raw beauty. "
16 " I’m already losing myself in him, losing track of who I was and who I am and where that stops and he begins. "
17 " I’ve always gotten what I want. Always. And I want you all to myself. I don’t want you working there anymore, and I knew you’d fight me on it, so I took the fight away from you. "
18 " What do you need, baby? Tell me, so I can give it to you. "
19 " In person… he’s beyond perfection. I can’t look away from him, but his beauty burns me, like staring into the sun. And now he’s in my club, and he’s staring at me expectantly, and I can’t move. His eyes are quicksilver, a changeable hazel. He’s too beautiful for words, and I’m not sure what to do. My body won’t work. "
20 " His lithe and lethal grace is hypnotic, too, in the way he moves like a leopard in the African grass, even if it’s just striding down a sidewalk. I got sucked into all this, but I can’t afford to let it… "
