“He reaches into his pocket, passing me his closed fist. I tap his fingers and they uncurl, revealing a familiar purple box. I twist my gaze to read it. LANOLIN NIPPLE CREAM. My eyes widen as I look up at him. “This got stuck in your shopping cart. I figured you needed it.” “I do,” I say, slowly taking the box of nipple cream from his hand while our eyes stay tangled together in an extremely electric moment. I swear, sparks are popping off around us. Why am I picturing those blunt fingertips smearing the cream into my hardened nipples, breasts aching and full, our mouths barely touching as he does. Holy shit.”

Always reminding him.
And he always yo-yo’s back.”

“You said you know what this is.” “I did,” she whispers, bright blue eyes flicking back and forth between mine. “You don’t know what this is to me, Beck. But I’m going to show you. I’m going to prove to you that everything you think I want is so fucking wrong. I’ll show you what I want because I can tell right now it’s not clear.” I lean in and lower my voice to just above a whisper. “I don’t want anything to be temporary with us.”

“When I say before everything else, I mean it. Above all, I’m Jes’s friend. When I see something funny, she’s the person I want to tell. If there’s a new book she’s reading, I’m the person she texts about it. And you know what? She doesn’t always wanna hear about the shit I think is funny, I’m sure. Same way I don’t particularly give a shit what book Reese Witherspoon recommends women read. But you know what she does? She cares. And I do the same. We give each other our focus and care, the same way we’re doing right now.”
― Daisy Jane, The Man I Know
