Asshole Quote by Jessa L. Gilbert

“I thought I told you to stay away from me,” I snap. “No, you told me not to touch you again. You never said to stay away,” he shrugs. “Why are you such an asshole?” “Probably the same reason you’re such a pain in the ass. For the fun of it.” quote by Jessa L. Gilbert
