When you have crush you become nothing but a poet

I spoke like a spoke on a wheel, as I went around and around without actually saying what I wanted to say. I was love flustered.

Savannah’s breath caught in her chest at the realization of how close they were standing. He brushed a strand of hair off her face, his finger leaving a line of heat across her cheek. If...

Can I kiss you again?” I nod. So he does.

If I had a crush on a guy, my tactic was to tell them I had a crush on them. And they always thought it was super-cute, so it usually worked in my favor!

I had this vision of the two of us holding hands or getting into some light petting behind shower curtains or up in the fencing aisle or some shit.

Every word you’ve ever said, is written somewhere in my mind.

I used to have a big crush on Andie MacDowell.

Crushes are so awful. I wonder if they suck worse for the crush-er or the crush-ee. I consider my three years of watching Josh from afar. Yeah, definitely the crush-er.

Affirmative.”Affirmative? Was that the cutest or what?

To live for the hope of something isn’t really living at all, and so, like a child putting away its toys and picking up a tool, he marched to Lyca’s bathroom, to shower off the...

Alex Barrow’s broad face, with the roughened skin that gave him an air of experience. His powerful, packed, wrestler’s body. The thick black fur at the base of his throat. It was wrong to call...

Oh, those warm days of stumbling words; blinded eyes, embracing in sweet slow dances and sipping courage from a bottle for sneaking kisses.

I always go for confident girls!

It’s bewildering to me how you can just start chatting with a complete stranger on Facebook, and – next thing you know – it seems as if there’s some intense connection with the person –...

Because he says he can’t stand you and you act like you can’t stand him, and whenever a man and a woman behave like that toward each other, it usually means something’s going on.

You like him, Rose. Why don’t you just admit that, at least to me?

A hammer made of deadlines is the surest tool for crushing writer’s block.

I could survive for months, years, on a crush.

I had the most beautiful dream, and then I fell asleep in your arms and my dream turned lovelier still.

Love gives you wings. Icarus and the Challenger both had wings, and so did my first love letter, after I folded it up and flung it at my crush.

Eternal Flame”s—the ones you sing into a hairbrush-microphone at the top of your lungs with your best friends on a Saturday night.

Nico studied his face – his sea-green eyes, his grin, his ruffled black hair. Somehow Percy Jackson seemed like a regular guy now, not a mythical figure. Not someone to idolize or crush on.

This put me very close to Jay and it was as uncomfortable as it was mystifying. It was uncomfortable because I still wasn’t sure I liked him all that much. It was mystifying because his...

Even without a kiss, this moment is perfect, and you wouldn’t trade it for anything.

A beautiful girlfriend is worth two more.

I wasn’t used to guys making me blush, and I wasn’t sure why he even was making me blush.
