"It takes everything in me not to remind him that he's going to have to live the rest of his life knowing I've fucked his wife."

"Guess I'm never getting my shirt back." I looked at him smirking near the door.

"Well, isn´t there a word word for friend that mess around?"
"Yeah, it's called girlfriend and boyfriend."

"You can´t re - create the first time you promise to love someone or the first time you feel loved by another."

"That's why my mother always said we memorialize our past. Everything seems better in a memory."

You told me I was yours and you were mine

The love of my life was gone.

"Graceland Marie Starr - Shore - Porter - whatever your name is - my life wasn't real without you. It was just a series of days all strung tighter by a bunch of regrets. But then I got your back. This is the right time, I love you Grace. I've always loved you. I loved you when I wasn't with you, and before that, and right now. Marry me?"
