Doing the right thing Quote by Melissa Jensen

““He came to find me," I offered, a small indication, maybe,that this was a Phillite boy who'd grown into doing the right thing. "I'll give him that. He could have just sucked down his spaghetti and gone." Frankie stuck the cap back on the lipstick. "You look very pretty in..." He flipped the tube over and read. "You've gotta be kidding. Poysonberry? Who comes up with this stuff? Anyway.I'm sure Alex Bainbridge will agree." "Thank you." "Anytime.Just keep this in mind, if you would, please. I know that you look very pretty every day, with or without the ridiculously named wax products." "Saint Francis," I teased, feeling just delightfully poysonous enough in the glow of his approval. "Too good for this world." "That's just what Connor said." Frankie's most recent boy. They met in a bookstore. "Bookstore Connor of the fantasy realm?" Behind us,the gong went. Frankie started to scoop his stuff together. "Careful.His fantasies do not involve one-dimensional Phillites or dead men." I tapped him on the tip of his perfect nose. He hates that. "How do you know? He might have a thing for dead, one-dimensional Phillites.””
