Status Updates From Two to Spark

Oh hell. I love you too,” he groaned. “It’s too soon.”
“Yeah.”
“We have a long way to go in this relationship,” he added.
“I agree.”
“Being a firefighter’s girl is no picnic.”
“Being a teacher’s boyfriend isn’t easy. Sixth graders can be vicious.

Look, I need some time to think about this.”
“Come on, Josie. Don’t be like that.”
“Don’t be thoughtful, introspective, and emotional? Don’t be a woman? Too late. I am one.”
“No kidding,” he muttered.
“Yeah? Well, take your horny ass out of my house. I want to stew for a little while. And before you call me irrational, realize that I’m mad because you automatically charged me with cheating. ~ stupid fight

Cooper wouldn’t be so bent out of shape about all this if he wasn’t believing in his destiny. He’s in love with Josie and afraid to say it.”
“I am not,” he groused. Oh.... I am. I fell in love with the woman in a handful of days. I’m a total idiot. But he couldn’t help how he felt.

That furball is a menace.”
Josie blinked. “Furball. You know, Hannah said something to me about fur…”
“Don’t talk about my sister when we’re…”
“Oh, good point.” She scrunched her nose.
He snorted. “Hell. You’re even pretty when you’re grossing me out.

He watched her sleep until he heard a door open. He didn’t want to leave but needed some time to figure this out. How had simple fooling around with the girl who’d once pantsed him in high school led to deeper feelings so suddenly?

Was really liking this one...until it just got crass/cheesy. Sigh.....

He wiped her cheek, and they both tensed. “Do you feel that?”
She wanted to answer but didn’t know what to say. The truth? That she wanted to climb him lumberjack-style and slide down his wood? She almost laughed hysterically at the bad pun—a sure sign of desire and nerves.

So I’m curious,” she said. “Did you ever get lucky with Linda?’
“You mean, after you showed everyone my Hulk boxers—which, for the record, I’d worn as a joke? The answer is no.” He had no trouble seeing her grin. “Sorry.” “No you aren’t.” He chuckled. “But it was funny. I mean, had it happened to Harrison, I’d have been laughing my ass off.

But seeing Josie again… Wow. She sure had gotten prettier. She’d been a cute girl back in high school, and he’d be the first to admit he hadn’t behaved too nicely after being so embarrassed in front of everyone. Not that his brothers had helped. They’d been some of the worst offenders. But he should have been kinder about the whole thing, not yelled at her and treated her like a leper after.

I have seen your soul mate and I think it's time you meet. He’s fire and smoke,” she whispered. “Of shine and fur, of flesh and bone, will your destinies come together as one.” Shine and fur? Was he a robot werewolf or what? Hannah continued to watch Josie. “You know him, deep down. He’s in your heart and blood, and you’ve history to burn and bury.

One of the Quad,” she groaned and rolled down her window. Typical Talbot men. They were all sexy, handsome, and dickheads. Though none of them were identical, they all appeared enough alike to pass as one another if you didn’t look too carefully.

Sure thing, teach.” Sophie Fenton smiled. “Teach. Who the hell thought it would be a good idea to give us degrees and the ability to influence youth?”
“Someone on drugs, surely.” Josie grinned.

Hannah, cut the crap already. Seriously? You’re still playing at being psychic? Honey, we come from a long line of firefighters and artists, not hippie spirit guides. You ain’t the Long Island Medium, and this ain’t Jersey.
