“Dude...you were together. Night and day for four years, so what was wasted exactly.”

“She's already making the feast, Aaron. She's... perfect."[...]"Really? Jen! Get your ass in the kitchen and start making dinner. Julia is three hours behind you and she's already started!"I laughed out loud again when I heard Jenna's response in the background. "You get your ass dressed. The turkey will be served at McFarland's Corner of 15th and Nichols. Bring your wallet, asshole.”

“Julia, I was so in love with you the entire time. Watching you, so intently working, I longed to be the thing you were thinking about that caused that look on your face. We were so stupid.”

“This is why I resisted loving you. I knew it would kill me to be away from you. I just…I don’t know if I can do it after…”

“It just makes me love her even more.”

“Julia...do you feel how much you own me?" I moaned against the soft skin of her neck, her pulse beating wildly against my lips. So sweet and alive. "But you're mine. You own me, but you've always been mine.”
