Nothing has ever been so painful or delicious as being so close to him and being unable to do anything about it: like eating ice cream so fast on a hot day you get a...

How are you feeling?”I leaned away from him. “Gross.”Aiden frowned. “Gross?””I haven’t brushed my teeth or washed my face in days. Don’t come near me.”He laughed. “Alex, come on.””Seriously, I’m gross.” I put my hand...

I just don’t want you to feel that way, because I love you. I’m in love with you. Forever and ever, and all the corny things I can attach to that.

I don’t know what happened in your past, what he did to you, how he hurt you, but I’m not that guy. The only thing I want from you is you. I would never use...

I’m not seeing a strong father-son relationship here, Alex. You two make Anakin and Luke look like Andy and Opie.

First I need to do something.’ He pulled me closer towards him until our lips were almost touching.‘What might that be?’ I managed to stutter, closing my eyes, anticipating the warmth of his lips against...

Every experience is a gift and happens for a reason. No matter how big or small, we are reminded that we are the captains of our ship.

Alex grinned and then walked past him, murmuring, “I applaud you for your courage.””Courage?” he asked with confusion.”Hmm.” She headed for the door to the hall, swinging her purse gaily as she went. “Many men...

She looks tan…-ish.””There’s a fine line between ‘tan’, and looking like you just rolled around in a giant bag of Doritos. And Miranda seems to prefer the nacho cheese variety.

I like you.You don’t know me.I want to, though.

Okay. He had a point but it wasn’t like I could tell him anything. I could see me now: Guess what? You ever watch Clash of the Titans or read any Greek fables? Well those...

It was kind of Alice awesome, wasn’t it?

A sudden damp coldness clung to the air around us. I lifted my head, eyeing the burnt orange sky. One drop of water fell, splashing off my cheek. Then the sky opened up, drenching us...

I understand the reasons behind his keeping a distance from a girl he cares about. Because the truth is, sometimes getting close to the fire does actually burn you.

It makes sense to be paranoid.

Not something better, Charlotte. Something right. And yes, I would walk away, if that’s what you’re asking.

Love, the deadliest of all deadly things. It kills you.Alex.When you have it.Alex.And when you don’t.Alex.

And we did, and it wasn’t bad. We ate the whole stupid can, we were so hungry. And when it started to get dark you pointed to the sky, and toldme there was a star...

Are you not going to talk? Just sit there and stare at me like a creeper?”Aiden cracked a half smile. “You called me that once before.””Yeah, because you are a creeper.

You two should really get a room,” Apollo said from out of nowhere. “My poor eyes…”I groaned. Even in his true identity, he still had impeccable timing.”Gods,” Aiden spat. He pulled back, casting Apollo a...

Alex resisted the urge to throw Seb off the balcony and see if he could fly.

Dispensing with the frivolity, he kissed her meaningfully. When at last he pulled away, her troubled expression alarmed him. “What?””Be careful, Hammond.””No one will know I was here.”She shook her head. “Not that.””Then what?””You may...

Alex snorted as he packed the wound with sticky rice.”Is that stuff sterile?” Ted asked, staring at Alex.”They boil it, don’t they?” Alex said, not looking up from what he was doing.Ted’s frown deepened. “That...

He wants to get back together,” she finished.”And you said…?” he tried to keep his tone disinterested. “I haven’t said anything,” she said. “You interrupted me before I could answer him.”He congratulated himself on his...

If we could just float along, like snow.

I don’t know how we made it to the bed or if the water was ever turned off in the shower. But we were together, our bodies slippery, our wet hair soaking the sheets we...

Hey, I’m kidding. And I’m also curious why’d you do that. The sun rises and sets out of Aiden’s ass, according to you.

Oh gids,” I muttered, remembering where I’d heard this before. “Wasn’t that a season finale on Supernatural?” When the boys nodded, my eyes rolled. “Seriously? Are Sam and Dean going to be there?

Do you think me horselike, my lord?”Realizing the threat to his personage, Blackmoor wiped the smile from his face and replied, “Not at all. I said I think you charming.””A fine start.””And I appreciate your...

I’m not stupid,” I muttered lamely.”Well, why else would you tell Alex to go anywhere? What will we do for eye candy now? Were you thinking of Nate at all? Were you thinking of me?...

Though I walk through the valley of death I will fear no evil, for I am the evilest motherfucker in the valley

I’ve lost my mind,” Alex muttered, grabbing her knives again and stomping back across the kitchen. “I woke up this morning a boring little chef on planet earth, and somehow ended up in the Twilight...

Her laugh was a travesty. Which made sense because in a way, so was his apology. But what was he supposed to say?I want you until I hurt. Until I sweat. I love you with...

I thought I would never see the sky again. Anything, anything is possible, if you can just see the sky.

Don’t be jealous. You’re my only cuddle bunny.

It was a map. A really crudely drawn map of trees, mountains that looked like upside-down Vs, and stick people. Apparently, drawing was not one of Athena’s skills.

I rolled my eyes, finishing off the burger. Rummaging around in the bag, I pulled out an extra-large order of fries. With all the exercise I was getting, my escape would involve me rolling out...

It’ll be impossible to protect Brittany for the rest of her life from all the other guys who want to be near her, to see her as I’ve seen her. Touch her as I’ve touch...

You’re crazy, Dylan. Oh, my God, you proposed marriage with index cards? No one else in the world would do that. Yes. Yes, Yes! If you ask me a thousand times, then every single time...

With the taste of rum in my mouth and the sting of remembrance in my heart, I set my sights on the man who killed my family.

This is the strange way of the world, that people who simply want to love are instead forced to become warriors.

Sometimes I think maybe they were right all along, the people on the other side in Zombieland. Maybe it would be better if we didn’t love. If we didn’t lose either. If we didn’t get...

Aiden moved so quickly that one second I was in his lap, and the next I was on my back and he was hovering above me. He lowered his head so that his lips brushed...

Sometimes the smallest decisions reap the biggest rewards… and you were the best decision I ever made.

Alex propped himself against the metal railing where Willow had just stood. “Okay, let’s get something straight,” he said in Spanish.”If you think I don’t know you’re after my girfriend, you’re crazy. And if you...

But then, even with cuts, bruises and blood all over him, he looked like his jackass self again.”- Alex Gold

You really didn’t appreciate how thick, how powerful water was until you had to fight it.

Declan, get your ass out of bed!”A light flicked on and Declan stumbled into view through the open window. He looked to be only half awake and was missing his shirt.Alex, on the other hand,...

I reached and ran a finger along her collarbones, my favorite place: like the silhouette of tiny wings.

Eat it,” I ordered, holding it with two hands now, making it dance in the air. “It’s begging you. ‘Eat me’.”He arched a brow.”Perv,” I muttered.Aiden pressed his lips together, but when he glanced at...
