21 " I love you', I tell her. 'I don't face fancy shit inside me or other pretty words to say, but know that, no matter what, I love you. "
― Katie McGarry , Walk the Edge (Thunder Road, #2)
22 " It's the danger that makes it fun. "
23 " Don't let your fears create walls or define you. "
24 " …as I attempt to release her, she squeezes my hand and offers a shy smile. Something within me shifts. No, I don’t get nervous, but Brenna transports me to all sorts of new places. It’s not her physical proximity getting to me, it’s the fact that she makes me feel. "
25 " I'm Breanna Miller. The smart girl. The quiet girl. The one who belongs to a large family. I'm Breanna Miller. Number 5 in the line of 9. The girl who everybody knows and nobody sees. I'm Breanna Miller. A girl who went to Shamrock's and ended up falling in love with Thomas Turner-Razor of the Reign of Terror. The boy who everyone sees and nobody knows. I've been with him for months. I'm in love with him and I don't care who knows. "
26 " I heard your girl's smart," Pigpen pipes up to ease the building tension. "In fact, I've heard she's fucking Einstein, which brings up the question how the hell she ended up with you. "
27 " There are lies in life we accept. Whether it's for the sake of ignorance, bliss, or, in my case, survival, we all make our choices. "
28 " You don’t have to worry about me pressuring you. You say stop, we stop.” That sums it up without me having to over explain. “But I’ll never complain if you cop a feel above or below. "
29 " I'm not quiet because I'm not proving a point. I'm quit because I gave no idea what to say to the emotions tearing me up. "
30 " I wanted to go away. It took me not listening for them to listen to me. Sometimes people don't listen until bad things happen. They realize then they should have listen instead of talked. Sometimes people are too busy hearing what they want to hear, seeing what they want to see, they don't care what's real only what they think is real. "
31 " Everyone says the same thing: Breanna's smart, she's quiet. On the inside. I'm not at all quiet. Most of the time, I'm screaming. "
32 " It's what I've been trained to do. It's what's expected of me. To be responsible. To follow the rules. To make logical decisions and to use this precious brain, but Razor's teaching me there's more to me than logic- there's also a ton of passion. "
33 " There are lies in life we accept. Whether it’s for the sake of ignorance, bliss or, in my case, survival, we all make our choices. "
34 " [-] Pigpen rounds to face the crowd. Like a lot of brothers in the club, he's ex-military. The voice of the six-two, massive former Army Ranger rumbles against the walls. "If you ain't a brother, clear out! "
35 " Pigpen earned his name as a joke because the girls fall over themselves to gain his attention. Blonde hair, blue eyes...a late twentysomething version of what I hope to be. "
36 " I promise I'll take care of you," he whispers. "You're safe with me." Even with an army of motorcycle guys outside that door, I firmly believe him. "
37 " He’s gorgeous and dangerous. Like the fallen angel Lucifer must have been. This could be the equivalent of a handshake with the devil. "
38 " The boy everyone sees but nobody knows is with the girl who everybody knows but nobody sees. There’s "
39 " Mom has no idea how badly I wish she had been there for me. But she wasn't and now its too late "
40 " The club, as always, has my back. Especially Pigpen. The brother adopted me as his protégé. "
