Asks Quote by Colleen Hoover
““Before we do what?' she asks hesitantly. Before we do what we both want to do. Before I lean in one more inch. And before you part your lips for me just enough for me to steal a taste. Before I put my hands and your hips and back you up until you have nowhere to go but onto your bed.””
