Gaze Quote by K.A. Linde
““I don’t know if I can do this anymore,” Jack’s husky voice muttered sounding defeated. It was such a strange sound coming out of him. “I know what you mean." “I’m not sure I want to break up with Kate though." That snapped her right out of her own pity party. Break up with Kate! Holy shit! “Uh, Jack?” He tilted his head to look at her under his thick dark lashes. “Yes, my dear?” “You’ve been thinking of breaking up with Kate?” She couldn’t keep the disbelief out of her voice. He nodded choking on his own words. “Ever since I saw you like a vision on the beach the first day you got here.” “Wh…Why would you do that?” She knew the answer. But she wanted to hear him say it. “I thought that was quite obvious…for you.””
