Seth Muttered Quote by Dianne Duvall
““I stole some of your lollipops.” “Really. Well, if you’re in the mood to lick something . . .” She laughed. “We can hear you,” Seth called. “So?” Marcus countered and kissed his wife again. “So she’s like a daughter to me, jackass.” “Yeah,” David seconded. “There’s a reason I poured thousands of dollars into soundproofing your bedroom.” “Hmm.” Marcus sounded thoughtful. “I do believe your family is trying to tell me I should take you to bed.” “That isn’t what I— oh screw it,” Seth muttered.””
