Alecia (The Staircase Reader)

“Say yes, Avery. Say that you’re in this with me.” She closes
her eyes. “Of course I am.” I crush my lips to hers.
Avery—she’s my destiny. There are too many times fate has
brought us together, and I can no longer deny that she is my
dream and this is exactly where I’m supposed to be.”

“You want to go out with me?” I question while wearing a
teasing smile. “Well, usually I think it’s only fitting we go
out on a real date seeing as we’ve already been out to
Walmart and all. I don’t take girls there until at least the
second or third date . . . but you’re special, and since our
little trip together today was sort of our date number three,
we can just pretend tonight will be date number four.” He
grins.”

“Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.”
― Ernest Hemingway

“It reminds me of the setting for a random, cheesy horror
flick. It makes me think that if we do break down, some
deformed hillbilly will probably drag us into a dilapidated
shack and eat us alive—just like what happened to those
kids in Wrong Turn .”
