My teasers
“You smug son-of-a-bitch.” She tries to slap me, but I grab her wrist. Like always she didn’t hold back. It was a full swing. “Don’t do that. You’re not better than I am, hiding behind the fact that you’re an asshole.”
“There’s a difference because I’m not in denial about it.” The way her eyes dim, sad and acknowledging my words, does something to me. I feel them on me…in me. It’s fucking ridiculous and I’m the last one who should consoling this girl, but I grab her hand and pull her to me.Come Here.

    1. I read it this weekend almost within one day (I had to put it away at one point, because it was early in the morning already and I wouldn't have gotten any sleep then) and it was uh-mazing!!
