Awkwardness Quote by Julia Quinn
““At any rate," she prattled on, awkwardness making her words run together, "I really can't get up to get my clothing, and my dressing gown appears to be just out of reach. I'm not exactly certain how this is so, but it is, so perhaps you ought to get up first, as I've already seen you—" "Henry?" "Yes?" "Shut up.””
