Bad idea Quote by Rysa Walker
““Didn’t anyone ever teach you why it’s a bad idea to make assumptions?” He raises his eyebrows, waiting for an answer. Oh, dear God. Does he really think that joke is original or witty? “It makes an ass out of you and me.” “I see you’re both smart and pretty.” He laughs and settles into another smile. That’s the one he thinks is sexy. The smile he practices in the mirror. ””
