“Is that why there’s a circle of salt around my hospital bed?” I ask, half-smiling, half-freaked out.

“God, they’re gonna commit you, baby.”
😭😭

“I don’t agree when people say a survivor can’t really move on until they forgive the people who hurt them. The key, from my perspective, is releasing the hurt. Moving on in your life without the hurt holding you back. Maybe it’s not words you need to hear from her, but words you need to say to her that will help you in this situation.” 😭😭😭

Hopscotch😭😭😭

She was twelve💔

“But we’re getting off topic,” I say with deceptive calm. “I’m here to punch you in the face.”

“I don’t believe in spells or potions or voodoo.” I put my hand over her heart, between her bare breasts. It covers most of her torso. “But I believe in this. I believe something special is happening between us, Lotus,”

“She looks like a little girl, except for that ass and those breasts and her lips and every other part of her.
So just the hair pretty much.”

She had two braids...😀 no. Just no.

Why are they kissing with their eyes open...😀

“I’d trade one of my championship rings to have her. I mean, I got two rings. There’s only one Lotus, as far as I can tell.”
🙂‍↕️

“Did you or did you not enjoy the Botanical Gardens?”
“I mean, I—”
“Yes or no?”
“Yes, but—”
“And did you or did you not love riding Jane’s Carousel?”
“A six-foot-seven-inch grown-ass man on a—”
“Yes. Or. No?”
“Okay. Yes. It was fun because it was ridiculous. There were four-year-olds riding with us.”😭😭😭

“We’re not dating or a couple or . . . anything but friends.”
“Funny.” I reach for her wrist and gently tug her the few inches separating us to stand in front of me. “I didn’t think about my other friends every day while I was away.”

The tension😮‍💨

“I just need to know you’re not making dolls of me and sticking needles in them or something,”
“I save the dolls for the really bad guys.
“I’m not sure if I should laugh, feel reassured, or run for the hills.”
“There’s the door. If you want to run.”
“I’ll take my chances,”🙂‍↕️

“I am kind of grumpy with most people, but not with you.”

“When Kennedy and Isaiah got remarried before the start of this season, renewing their vows back in Vegas, Reese was there too. In the pews, watching me proudly, the same way she did at Kai and Miller’s wedding.”

“My head is here, Reese. My heart too. You’ve got the whole thing.”🥹🥹🥹🥹

“And how long are you going to be mine?”
“Always,” he admits easily. “Even if there comes a time you don’t want me to be. There’s no getting over you for me, Reese. You’ve ruined me.”

"Tell me I can kiss you."
"Don’t tell me what to do"
"Reese."
