Smirk Quote by Abigail Roux
““Walk it off, man" he suggested with a smirk as he began leading him by the elbow out of the chaos of the stacks and toward the hallway. "Bastard, " Zane hissed.[]You'd probably say that if I lost a leg." "Nah," Ty scoffed as they got out into the hall. []"I'd probably say hop it off," he corrected with a barely restrained snicker.””
