    Khalid.”

    You're laughing at me," I complained.

    I am not!"

    You are so not making this easy."

    Then she laughed for real, and she put her hands
    around my neck. "I am never, ever going to make things easy for you, Seaweed Brain. Get used to it.”

My pulse raced under his lips.
    "And I won't settle for anything less.”
    Michelle Hodkin, The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer
