1 " I love every single fucking thing about you. You deserve to know that. You deserve to know.” I swallowed hard as I told her the truth. “I’m not breathing for ghosts anymore. I’m breathing for you. "
― Kate Stewart , The Brave Line
2 " God, you make me crazy.” … “Well, Jesus made you an asshole. "
3 " I knew enough to fall in love, I felt enough to stay in love, but I wanted more of him and always would. "
4 " I waited for you for so long that I forgot what I was waiting for.”Fists clenched at my eyes, I bared my soul to her, my voice completely broken.“I swear to God, the only thing I want to protect now is you. I’d go to war for you I’d fight every goddamn battle for you even though you don’t need me to. "
5 " Selfish or not, I came first, and his brush off was far too easy.I would let love rule in my heart and take a piece of my soul, but I would never let its loss destroy all of me. "
6 " You can begin again anywhere you want to in life, but you can’t recreate your past or the way it shaped you. "
7 " I’m going to be the one to make you come.”“Pardon?”“You heard me.” ...“I warn you now, though. I’m fucking filthy. "
8 " I wanted him without a doubt, no pretense of a future, no plans of any kind, no problem. I wanted him. And from the look in his eyes, I was about to have him. "
9 " I don’t care how many women you’ve taken here.”“Good.”“That many?”“I like the part where you didn’t care.”“I was just curious.”“Stay curious.”“You really are an asshole.” She gave me a wink. "
10 " I don’t fuck and fall in love, no matter how good it feels.”I rolled my eyes as he made a quick move and gripped my face firmly. His eyes were dead serious. “Tell me you heard me. "
11 " I knew that look. I’d seen it before on a few different men. No matter what came out of his mouth, I couldn’t believe it, not when his eyes told me differently. That look said possession. It said my body belonged to him. And he took it for the rest of the night. "
12 " Crazy never explained itself and human nature was the most fucked up beast imaginable. "
13 " In my daydreams, the man had been larger than life. In reality, he consumed me entirely. "
14 " If I was going down, I was going to make damn sure he went with me. "
15 " She wanted to know me. I loved it.I hated it.I had nothing to offer.I didn’t need commitment, but I wanted her. She was making it easy, but for how long? "
16 " Our bodies moved in sync, our breaths shaky. It was an undeniable connection and I never ever wanted it to end. We remained that way as he took me to a place where only bliss existed, and we were perfectly right.We were locked bodies and scarred souls completely exposed. And it was okay because I wanted him to have a piece of mine.And I gave it to him. "
17 " Everything you felt, I felt it too. "
18 " Those who say that twenty-one days breaks a habit are liars. I still had my addiction, and I was a junkie in need. "
19 " But that’s what love does. It makes us wistful fools hell bent on our heart’s desire. "
20 " If you look into my eyes right now and apologize, that would be a fucking joke. "
