Then, slowly, like the sunrise peeking over the horizon, she smiled.She snapped the box closed.She didn’t scream. She didn’t run. She didn’t faint.There might have been a little crying.But mostly… she danced.

My odds were looking about as good as a main character in Game of Thrones.

But sex…that was the opposite of control. There were emotions, and attraction, and that pesky other person that just had to be involved. Not my idea of fun.

You are unbelievably sexy.

You want to hear it? Fine. It’s a simple story really, about a pretty girl who was pretty stupid. She let a man touch her because she was scared to say no, and then she...

It wasn’t until I’d walked halfway across the parking lot that I realized: 1. I wasn’t wearing shoes. A. Or a shirt. 2. I didn’t bring my keys A. Or anything really. 3. I’d just...

Shoes are stupid. Why do people wear them?” -BlissHe laughed, “So they don’t step on a nail and get tetanus, that’s why.” -Cade”Wear. Where. Wear. W’s are “-Bliss

Pain changes us. Mine made me want to be perfect, so that no one would ever want to leave me again.

It was like my uterus was tapping out a happy dance on the rest of my organs. God, I was dying the longest, most tortuous, and arousing death in the history of the world.

He caught my hands as they pulled through my hair, and pulled my body against his, and I felt all the holes in me. My sobs echoed through them like caverns, and I never would...

You don’t need to make up a new pet.

—En realidad no. Sigo pensando que ella lo haría todo de nuevo si hubiera una posibilidad… una posibilidad de que pudiera salir bien. Aunque 99 veces de cada 100 la historia termina mal, pero merece...

Life’s too short to waste time living it any other way.

What? Just because I can’t have you right now, doesn’t mean I’m okay with him having you.

Call it an issue. Call it baggage. But I really hated lies. They’re ugly things, festering like wounds, spreading like disease. They’re winner-less crimes that hurt everybody in the end.

The best parts of life are the things we can’t plan. And it’s a lot harder to find happiness if you’re only searching in one place. Sometimes, you just have to throw away the map....

A veces, son las cosas que dan miedo en la vida las que más valen la pena.

If we did have a child, and he came to you with something like this, would you tell him to take the money, to take the job that didn’t mean anything? Why am I even...

Apparently having emotions equated to having a vagina.

We spend so much time defending our choice to do this that it becomes hard to show any vulnerability at all. There’s only so many times you can handle someone asking about your fall back...

Bliss, I don’t normally do things like that. But I was second-guessing everything about coming here, and you were everything I needed. I don’t know how many times I’ve stopped myself from coming over here...

—,Qué? El hecho de que no puedo tenerte ahora mismo, no significa que estoy bien con que él te tenga.Mi cerebro tropezó con esa frase de ahora mismo de nuevo, pero obligué a mis pensamientos...

Each one you take is a commitment. If you break that commitment, the gods of alcohol will punish you with a hangover so bad you’ll think Satan himself took a dump on you. -Milo

Her eyes were a bottomless ocean that I would give up air to explore.

Tell me I’m not crazy,” He said. I couldn’t do that. I was nowhere near sane enough at the moment to advise anyone else on rational behavior.

Phaedra keeps saying she’s being selfish. That she hates herself for it, but she does it anyway. She can’t deny herself what she wants, even if it brings about her downfall and his.” “And have...

Touché. No me importa lo que hagamos, siempre y cuándo te quedes.

Even the good things from our pasts still only belonged in the past

In Texas, two things are cherished above all else- football and gossip.

I get what it’s like to want something, but to try and force yourself to really believe that you don’t.

My mother had told me once when I was little and had a friendship fall apart that some relationships just end. Like a star, they burn bright and brilliant, and then nothing in particular goes...

Because you’ve got balls of steel.’I hated when people said that, like it assumed strength and being a male were synonymous. There was strength in being a woman. ‘Spence, I don’t have balls. Good thing,...

He was still a mystery to me. And God, did I want to play Nancy Drew.

You’re right. Realistically, I’m a Ravenclaw.

This funny thing happens when you graduate college. You hear so much about being an adult that you start to feel like you have to become a different person overnight, that growing up means being...

I will call bullshit on that so many times that the word bullshit will lose all meaning. -Milo

we should live like we smoke— inhale the present and exhale the past.

Do me a favor? Be a gentleman tomorrow?

Oh how I had underestimated tender kisses.

Life was easier when you stopped caring, when you stopped expecting things to get better.

Sometimes you don’t know what you’re looking for until it’s already knocked you flat on your back. -Cade

Nós não podemos ser donos um do outro?” – Garrick Taylor, Perdendo-me

The timbre of his voice went into that low register that made my insides curl in on themselves–it was like my uterus was tapping out a happy dance on the rest of my organs.

How much of my fever-induced dream was real? I felt safe assuming that my time as a bee was fiction, as well as a few mythological animals that I swear I’d seen. Then I’d lived...

She said she wanted my best line tomorrow after the show, and now I knew what it was going to be.

I’ll take my chances against your fickle heart if it means it’s mine.

If brains could have orgasms, I’m pretty sure this was what it would feel like.

Your pain made you strong. It made youpassionate and alive. It made us both who we are. -Cade

What are you thinking, Bliss?”I should have said, you. Naked. That would have shocked him. Not that I was actually thinking of him naked… well, now that I mentioned it I was… damn.

But sometimes you don’t know what you’re looking for until it’s already knocked you flat on your back.
