Kiss Quote by Donna Kauffman
““**“I get it,” he said. “I was supposed to give you your space. I didn’t want to. So...I compromised. Only, you frustrate the hell out of me, and I’m all done with being frustrated. This is what I wanted to do. Pretty much from the moment we stopped doing it. You?” She was still reeling, from the kiss, and the declaration. “Me, yes. Uh, too. Me, too.” “Good.” Then he kissed her again.**””
