“Baz is standing in front of a full-length mirror, wearing—I swear to Merlin—a flowered suit.” Quote by Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell
“Simon looks over at me. “What?” “Nothing,” I say. “What?!” he shouts. He can’t hear a thing I’m saying over the wind and the engine and the classic rock. “I hate this fucking car!” I shout back. “The sun is burning me! I might actually catch fire, at any moment!” The wind is blowing Simon’s hair straight, and he’s squinting—from the sun and from all the smiling. “What!” he shouts at me again. “You’re so beautiful!” I shout back. He turns the radio down, so now there’s just the wind and the engine noise to shout over. “What’d you say?!” “Nothing!” Rainbow RowellWayward SonBaz PitchSimon SnowSnowbaz Author:Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell
“Simon catches up with me and traps me against the car. He’s kissing me before I see it coming, bending me back over the boot. “You were amazing,” he says, taking a breath. “You didn’t even need a wand.” Rainbow RowellWayward SonBaz PitchSnowbaz Author:Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell
“So hot,” Simon says. “Got to see you fight without picking a fight with you myself. [...] “I promise to be just as hot later,” I say. “I’ll start fires all the way across the Midwest.” Rainbow RowellWayward SonBaz PitchSnowbaz Author:Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell
“He looks away from me, covering his mouth. “What are you laughing at.” He looks down, but waves his hand at me. “You—your—” I refuse to look down at myself. “My what, Snow?” “Your hair.” I refuse to touch my hair. “You look like that guy, with the wig—” He mimes playing the piano. “Duh, duh, duh, duhhh.” “Beethoven?” “I don’t know his name. With the big wig. There was a film about him.” “Mozart. You’re saying I look like Mozart.” “You’ve got to look, Baz, it’s a scream.” Rainbow RowellWayward SonBaz PitchSimon SnowSnowbaz Author:Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell
“Baz is touching me, and it's good. (Touching Baz is always good; it'd be easier if I could just touch him all the time. And kiss him. And not have to be kissed.)” Rainbow RowellWayward SonBaz PitchSimon SnowSnowbaz Author:Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell
“A month ago, I would have walked to the sofa and touched his shoulder. Three months ago, I would have dropped a kiss on his cheek. Last September, when he and Bunce first moved into this flat, I would have had to pull my mouth away from his to ask the question, and he might not have let me finish.” Rainbow RowellWayward SonBaz PitchSnowbaz Author:Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell
