41 " I’d found myself again in the haunted eyes of a girl who was just as lost as I was. "
― T.M. Frazier , King (King, #1)
42 " like they were about to enjoy a meal together. "
43 " Things don’t always start out the way we want them to. It’s how they end that’s important. "
44 " Why did you come back for me?""Because you're mine. "
45 " Kids can be fucking cruel.Adults can be crueler. "
46 " Oh come on. You are important. And you do have a name. We just don’t know it yet. Maybe, your name totally sucks. Like it could be Petunia Peoplebeater or something. You should be grateful that you are possibly avoiding a total name tragedy,” Preppy joked. "
47 " It was him. "
48 " Then what’s your hobby?” I asked. “My hobby?” He smiled and wiped his nose, which had just started dripping blood again, a single drop fell to the page and splattered on stick figure Preppy. He nodded slyly and purses his lips, hooking his thumbs under his suspenders. “Bitches. "
49 " You done with this?” he asked. I could barely hear him over the music. He gestured with his chin to the brunette on his shoulder, a childlike grin on his face. I nodded, and Preppy smiled like I’d just told him he could have a puppy. Sick fuck. I loved that kid. "
50 " If you’re going to let me go, let me go. If you’re going to let me in, let me in. But, you have to pick one. You can’t hold me close at night and push me away every morning when the sun comes out. "
51 " Before he was done telling me to help myself, I’d already shoved two so far in my throat I might choke, but I didn’t care. They could be fucking poisoned, I didn’t care. If I died with a mouthful of pancakes while the poison ate out my insides, it would be a fate I’d surrender to willingly. Because pancakes. "
52 " I’ll protect you, King had said. And sometime over Preppy’s pancakes, I’d resolved to stay. King said he wouldn’t force himself on me, so all I had to do was enjoy the free room and board and not give into King. You’re going to beg for it. Yeah, right. He could keep on believing that while I kept on eating pancakes. "
53 " I finished the rest in one bite and tried not to lunge for the remaining ones before he could get to them. Instead, I sat back and crossed my legs, sipping my tea while secretly hoping Preppy would choke and die so that I could finish them off. "
54 " King laughed. “Well, for starters…you’re kind of quirky.” “Quirky?” “Pup, did you or did you not just put Cheetos on your sandwich?” “Duly noted. Okay, quirky. I can handle that. Keep going. What else do you think you know about me? "
55 " Quizás sólo decidimos estar perdidos juntos. "
56 " Shit, anyone within ten miles knew what you wanted, but next time, you’re going to wake up with something much larger than my fingers inside that pussy of yours. And when that happens, you’re going to come so fucking hard you’ll think what you had tonight was nothing more than a fucking hiccup. And I’ll remind you that this is my bed. This is where I sleep, and now it’s where you sleep. So, tread carefully. "
57 " I ain’t ever getting married. I ain’t ever having a girlfriend. This is just about Preppy and King crawling out of the shit instead of rotting in it. "
