First date Quote by Allie Everhart
““I want to kiss him so bad right now but I can’t. I told him we had to wait until that first date. Now I totally regret saying it, but I’m insanely stubborn so if I said it I can’t go back and change my mind. If I did, he’d know I was too weak to resist him. Which I am. But he doesn’t need to know that.””
