Gaze Quote by Melanie Shawn
““You’re a brat,” he said affectionately, smiling as he leaned down and kissed her forehead. It was such a small gesture, one she thought a lot of people might even take for granted. But not Lily. She had never had someone kiss her on the forehead lovingly. She’d seen it in movies. She’d even witnessed it in real life. But never once had she experienced it. It was amazing.””
