“I've hugged teammates after victories and screamed in their faces. I've thrust myself against big meaty bodies over and over again. I've grabbed men and tackled them to the grass. I've breathed their heat, and shared their water bottles, and sweated with them. But Billy is the first one I feel I'm allowed to be myself around. He's the only one I can grab...and do more with.” DesireM M RomanceHomoeroticism Book:Football Sundae Source: Football Sundae
“The point is, I understand about rumors and bullshit gossip all of these bored fuckers like to sling around. The only reason they do it is ‘cause their own lives are fucking boring. If you’re at the center of a rumor, it just means you’re more interesting than anyone else. You’ll be the one who they remember years from now. And isn’t that the point of living a life at all? To be remembered?” PeopleSocietyRumorsIrrelevanceGossipingBeing Remembered Book:When I See You Again Source: When I See You Again

“It’s amazing sometimes, the intuition of children. How clearly they see the world for exactly what it is, unclouded by so-called adult intellect and knowhow. Is innocence, in its own way, a kind of purified truth?” ChildrenYouthInnocencePurity Book:When I See You Again Source: When I See You Again
“I grin. “It’s just a party,” I assure her. “Nothin’ big.” “There ain’t nothin’ that happens on this ranch that’s organized by your mama that ain’t big. That woman’s about as subtle as a shotgun.” “A shotgun can be subtle if it ain’t bein’ fired,” I point out. She narrows her eyes. I think she’s about to quip back with something super sassy, but then a smile wrinkles up her face. “You sayin’ I’m better off to keep the shotgun from firin’?” “I’m sayin’ quit playin’ with the trigger, Grandma.” GrandmotherSouthernEuphemismCountry LifeSassy DialogueShotgun Book:Football Sundae Source: Football Sundae
