"I'm being evicted. This is actually happening. How is this happening?"
"I would do the same thing for my family. It sucks, but I get it."
"Thanks, Dan, I appreciate that. We'll talk later."
"I can't tell you how excited I am to finally try this Latin restaurant."
"I guess that's really saying something, huh?"
"Don't pull another New Year's and mistake my room for his again."
"Everybody knows your hatred for me is just a cover for how badly you want to be under me."
"No thanks, I'd rather take a beating from the guy on the screen."
"That's such a huge weight off my shoulders, you don't even know. Thank you."
"This isn't a good time for apartment hunting right now."
"Guess I'm moving in with Tristan for a week."
"I can't say I miss dealing with drunk assholes in here, but I do miss these particular assholes."
"You're going to set ground rules in my house?"
"I don't have time to train you on the technology."
"You should be thankful for the occasional attention."
"I'm not sure why you think I'm going to abide by your made-up rules in my own damn house, Remy."
"I know in an instant that Tristan did this. He actually pranked me."
"By the time I'm finished cleaning, I've already planned out Tristan's murder in my head."
"Who knew I'd have to off you the very first day."
"Because you won't like the ones I come up with."
"You're an ass. I'm not engaging in a prank war with you."
"I'm in between apartments for a little bit so Jax offered me his room."
"He sprayed the floor with whipped cream this morning so I'd step in it when I woke up."
"I cannot believe he could be this infantile."
"How could you? You said I was the love of your life!"
"I would rather go through my entire day naked than shower with you."
"You wouldn't be saying that if you knew what it looks like when water is running down my naked body."
"I don't fuck nerds. I just happen to have a different type than 'arrogant womanizer.'"
"I tried to be nice—even my house rules were meant to make it easy for us to avoid each other."
"I don't have to go crazy. I'll wear my combat boots."
"I promise I can fuck you better than whatever nerds you usually sleep with."
"She should break up with that guy. If you hurt her, I will know. So I suggest you don't."
"I'm not looking for a job. I have a job. Several, actually."
"I'm one of the best fighters in the Northeast."
"I'm not abusive—or at least not physically. He's just kind of mean."
"What good is all this muscle and talent if I don't use it to boss people around once in a while?"
"To being willing to gut anyone that fucks with the people we care about."
"You really don't know how to have a normal conversation with me, do you?"
"I can go back to being an asshole if that would make you more comfortable."
"I'll let you be your usual, charming self and give you full reign to insult me however you want."
"The fighting and arrogance are an overcompensation for a tiny dick."
"Pressure is pressure. You never get used to the nerves. You just get better at dealing with them."
"I didn't start training with the intention of fighting but once I got into the sport it seemed like a logical step."
"It's barbaric because it's primal and raw and there's no hiding anything once that cage door locks. It's honest."
"You see people for who they truly are when they fight."
"With how fake everything and everyone is nowadays, I started to like the feeling of being that honest."
"I don't date in the classical sense of the word. I don't have to like someone to fuck them."
"Just because I don't plot your death anymore doesn't mean I like you."
"People don't usually stay in the same industry their whole life. Nor should they, I don’t think."
"It's probably a cliché response as a chick but it really is empowering to be able to throw a good punch."
"There will always be another dream, or at least another opportunity for the dream."
"Nothing is the end of the world but the end of the world."
"I realize with a shock that I'm in the same position that every girl that's ever wanted to date me was in—wanting more but getting rejected because the other person is only interested in sex."
"How can it possibly feel this bad? We didn’t spend that much time together. I shouldn’t be so depressed over her rejection or so obsessed with the thought of making her mine."
"It's Friday afternoon and I'm finishing up my last private lesson of the day."
"The harder I hit, the more the chaos in my head dulls."
"For the first time in weeks, my numbness melts to anger."
"I still can't see a short brunette on the street without my breath catching."
"Part of me is beginning to wonder if those ten days even happened."
"My workouts are just as hard, I'm just as exhausted, and I'm even more confused than I was in the beginning."
"I throw myself into a workout within minutes my gloves are laced up and I'm pounding on the heavy bag."
"The sound of my fists hitting the leather reverberate through the room, though it’s not loud enough to drown out my chaotic thoughts."
"The sensation of finding my pleasure at the same time as Remy is unlike anything I've ever felt before."
"Experiencing the epitome of pleasure—brought on by our chemistry and love for each other—is the most incredible thing I've ever felt."
"I should've known this was something the first time we had sex," I remark thoughtfully. "I never knew it could feel like this."
"I didn't either. I didn't think chemistry like this existed."
"I think I started falling in love with you the night we sat on the couch," she says thoughtfully.
"I'm not proud of the fact that I've been with so many women."
"I was miserable, too," I tell her softly. "I don't ever want to feel that way again."
"You and I will never go through that again. It's you and me. That's it. We're it."
"I'm not usually one for teasing but I can't quite get enough of the sounds you make when you're this desperate for me."
"Our chemistry is too good. I get off on the power, and I know your strong, independent personality begs to give up your control to me."
"I love you so goddamn much. Sometimes it actually hurts."
