Rush

I'm not stubborn. My way is just better.

Some crushes just never went away. They built, instead, into something permanent, obsessive and all consuming.

Tell me what you need." "You," she said simply, that one word tearing to the very heart of him. "Just you.

And maybe that’s was her biggest crime of all. Making him fall in love with her.

Maybe I didn't always know what I was missing, but it was you. Always you.

Love made her patient. It made her hopeful.

He’d never get over her. He knew that without hesitation or doubt. He loved her. As deeply as it was possible to love another person. And God, he wanted her. Every day. In hit life. As much a part of him as he would be of her.

I want babies too," he said huskily. "Daughters as beautiful as you are.

You can't control everything. You can't control how someone feels about you. Or what makes them tick. You can only control how you react, how you act, how you think and feel.

Decide what makes you happy and damn what anyone else thinks or says

Taking the leap felt appropriate. Only it wasn’t just a short hop. It was a full plunge off a cliff.

Was he demanding? Hell yes, but he wasn’t selfish. He took. He was ruthless in his demands. But he gave her back so much. Not just materially but emotionally, though he’d likely deny he did any such thing.

He was better than any drug, any remedy for her illness.

You need to worry less about what everyone else thinks and focus on what makes you happy

He kissed her as though he were starved for her. Like he'd been held away from her and had finally broken free. It was the kind of kiss that lived only in her fantasies. No one had ever made her feel so..consumed.

One song bled into another and they remained locked together, neither willing to break the intimacy that surrounded them, concealing them in the small space the two occupied.

If you ever wake up and see the light and decide you want me back? You're going to have to crawl.

As if he conveyed by actions what he could never say in words. Would never say in words.

The only thing I’m sure of is that I’ve waited entirely too damn long to have you.

She touched a part of him he’d thought was inaccessible. A part that had been jealously guarded for years. And she’d gotten there with no effort whatsoever. She’d walked into his life and heart like she belonged.

Her mind exploded with whoa and what the fuck and oh, yes please.

She was tattooed on every part of his body. Deeper, in his heart, his very soul. A permanent brand that would never wear off.

Pero el corazón no siempre hacía caso y esta era una de las cosas sobre las que podría no tener control alguno.

She wanted to rock his entire universe. Wanted to firmly implant in his mind that he’d never want to allow another man to touch her—anyone to touch her.

Her words spoke to the very heart of him. Said with utter sincerity. How simple she made it sound. She’d never asked anything of him. She was very undemanding. She didn’t give a shit about his money or what he could buy her. The only things she’d ever truly asked him for were so simple. Hold her. Touch her. Comfort her.

It was so easy to lose herself in the fantasy of being with Gabe because he made it easy. He took absolute care of her. He saw to her every need. Was he demanding? Hell yes, but he wasn’t selfish. He took. He was ruthless in his demands. But he gave her back so much. Not just materially but emotionally, though he’d likely deny he did any such thing.

En los negocios, el mayor poder que puedes tener es el de estar dispuesto a renunciar a un acuerdo.

I'll never be happy without her. I want her in my life. Every day. I want to take care of her, make sure she never has to worry for anything that I can give her. F me, but I'm even imagining children. At my age. All I can think of are daughters who look just like her. I picture her round with my child and it's the most mind-blowing feeling in the world. Eveything that I've sworn off in my life, she has me reevaluating. Because of her. It's all her. I've never felt this way about another woman. I never will.
