1 " Anyway, we'll call your next badge the confidence badge," Payton says as she gets to work with her Sharpies. "Since calling it the 'fuck everyone' badge seems a little dicey for you. You haven't earned this one yet, but I'm going to make it and hang it on the fridge so you have a goal." "Do you think this is a bit dysfunctional?" "No. I think this is adulting done right. "

2 " It feels like getting to an amusement park and finding out they're filled to capacity and you can't get in. It feels like someone just told me Santa isn't real before I was ready. It feels like it's raining inside my heart. "
3 " Right there. Right over the fancy lacy panties and I think I might die. Because it's embarrassing. Because it feels good. Because I want him to do it again and again and again. Rhys presses his nose into my panties and inhales, his eyes on mine, and ohmygod do men do that? Rhys does that. I bet Rhys does lots of things and he's going to do them to me. I bite my lip as Rhys hooks his thumbs into the sides of the material and tugs them down my thighs. His "
4 " I must be the sluttiest non-slut in the country. I'm a wannabe slut, which is just sorta sad, isn't it? "

6 " She ran her hand up my thigh and said, “I like it when you fill me deep, Rhys.” I laughed, not realizing it was an attempt at seduction, not a joke. She blinked, that slightly hurt look she gets when she thinks she's being rejected crossing her face. So I kissed her and used washing-machine analogies to dirty-talk her until she was smiling again. Jesus Christ. I think I might love her. "
7 " I miss quiet Lydia. I enjoyed her for the five minutes I knew her. "
8 " I'm going to need Jesus to take the wheel of this car if she doesn't shut up soon. "
9 " I'm sick of being good. The only kind of good I'm interested in being with that man is on my knees, with my lips wrapped around his dick while he tells me how good I am. "

I'm probably double-counting the idiot percents with the money percents but you know what, I don't care. "
11 " You know he's gonna want anal, right?" Payton adds. "I assumed so," I reply with a shrug. "Don't worry," Payton says breezily. "I'm gonna make you a 'butt stuff' badge." "You're a good friend." "I really am," Payton agrees, rattling the ice in her drink. "
12 " Es pequeña, algo que hace que sienta la absurda y anticuada necesitad deprotegerla. "
13 " The best way to get over someone is to get under someone else. "
14 " Junior year I dated a guy I didn't like that much for way longer than I should have because I liked his cat. "
15 " Why are you doing this to me?" he whispers in my ear. He doesn't seem so mad anymore. "Is it happening right now? Are we doing the sex?" "We're most definitely doing the sex," he confirms and takes my hand in his. "
16 " Lydia makes every experience better. Being with her feels like luck and fate and winning the lottery. It feels like trust and friendship and home. Her love feels like a surprise so good you’d never dare expect it, but when it finds you, you hold on tight. "
17 " He says stuff like, "Lydia, I want to fuck you. Let's go back to my place and do the fucking." I mean, obviously it sounds better when he says it—I told you my dirty-talking skills need work. "
