61 " He shakes his head. “I want things to be different. If you want me to apologize, I’ll do it until I lose my fucking voice. I just want things to be right between us. Talk to me. Help me fix this. "
― Leisa Rayven , Bad Romeo (Starcrossed, #1)
62 " So you're his new Juliet, huh? Has he ruined you yet? Run while you still can. Trust me on this. You do not want to be around when that boy self-destructs. He'll just take you with him, and the damage he'll do will fuck you up forever. Just ask my therapist. And my sponsor. "
63 " And don’t say ‘fluffing’ any more, ’cause that shit cracks me up. You know it’s a porn term, right?” No, I didn’t know it was a fluffing porn term. Do I look like a porn-watching pervert? "
64 " Okay. We can keep it on the down-low for a while longer, but what do I say if someone straight out asks me about us?” There’s a babble of voices in the hallway, and he immediately steps away and shoves his hands in his pockets. “Lie.” “And if Connor asks?” His eye twitches. “Tell that fucker we’re engaged. "
65 " and I really can’t afford to have a sad vagina. "
66 " Not I. Believe me, you have dancing shoes with nimble soles. I have a soul of lead so stakes me to the ground I cannot move. "
67 " Dear God, Holt looks good in that costume. Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou, Romeo. "
68 " I have no issue with Elissa. She's a fantastic stage manager, and we've worked together before. In fact, a million years ago we used to be good friends. Back when I still thought her brother was born of a human mother and not spawned straight from Satan's asshole. "
69 " Still, he’s being nice to me, so I decide to be nice to his ass and allow myself to notice how hot it looks in his jeans. "
70 " bet if he entered his penis in a competition, it would win “Best in Show” and he could walk around with a giant blue ribbon stuck to his crotch. "
71 " He’s only half Japanese. And he’s not usually like that, but I guess seeing the Antichrist in his house pushed him over the edge.” He laughs and rubs the back of his neck. “Well, I’m just going by Satan these days, but if you want to be all formal about it…” “Can I call you Lucy?” “Huh?” “Short for Lucifer.” “Oh, sure, but only when we’re alone. I can’t have you calling me that in front of my evil minions. They might laugh and … well … that would just hurt my feelings. "
72 " He takes a step forward, and I hate the way he looks at me. Appraising and approving. Hungry. It draws me in against my will, like he’s flypaper, and everything inside me is buzzing and trying to wrench itself free. "
73 " I get a crystal-clear image of Holt as a modern-day Mercutio. "
74 " My smile couldn’t be smugger if I bought it from Smuggy McSmugster at the Smug Store in Smugville. "
75 " After all, history proved that eventually, everyone leaves me. Why would you be any different?Now I know that you were.Are. "
76 " Her vagina could offer shiatsu massage and whistle the national anthem—it’s still not worth marrying her to get a piece of it. "
77 " try to explain to her she’s dead and therefore has no further need for Romeo’s impressive erection, but she’s finding it difficult to suspend her disbelief. "
78 " I don’t think you understand. I have no moves. I’m move-less. "
79 " I prepare to conjure a personality. "
80 " Dammit, Ethan, help me!” I feel like I’m in a disaster movie, and that belt is the iceberg that’s going to sink the good ship Orgasm. It must be destroyed. "
