“Pretty boy” she glared at him. “Gorgeous girl” he says in his thick accent smirking.
“Behind every great man there is a good woman … with a knife, ready to kill him and take his place.”
“You know what you should do? Suck it up and tell her you love her.”
“You act like it’s so simple!”
“Or, you could just wait years and forever be nothing. Which would you prefer?”
❤️
Oh, in that case BTW, can we have some anxious first kiss prompts?
“What if I’m so terrible, you’ll never want to kiss me again?”
“Whatever happens, don’t make fun of me.”
“I barely even know what to do.”
“So, uh, who moves first? I should probably close my eyes, too.”
“Dearest. Darling. Sweetheart,” the protagonist flatly recited the list of endearments the antagonist was most likely to wield in their conversations. “You’re play acting at intimacy again. God, it must be desperately lonely being you.” “Oh, love. I’m not the one play acting at anything - if I wanted to be intimate with you, baby, I’d bother to learn your name.”
“Don’t let anyone dictate how you live your life. Chances are they don’t know what the fuck they’re doing either.”
“Thanks…Grandma, but I don’t think that’s the best advice to share with your 12 and 16-year-old grandchildren.”
“There is no best advice, child. I’m only telling you what I did. Your parent’s generation failed you so it’s up to you to teach you. The first lesson is to pay attention to any and everything. The second lesson is to revise what you learned from the first lesson. Just pay attention and raise yourselves. Things won’t always be this easy and I won’t always be here to make it any less.”
