Kissed Quote by Scarlett Cole

“I want this,” he said with every ounce of honesty in his body. “You and me, Kendalee. I know there’s a pile of shit taller than the CN Tower that we have to deal with. But tell me this isn’t some experiment. That you aren’t going to just leave me, that you aren’t going to decide I’m not worth it,”…” quote by Scarlett Cole

““I want this,” he said with every ounce of honesty in his body. “You and me, Kendalee. I know there’s a pile of shit taller than the CN Tower that we have to deal with. But tell me this isn’t some experiment. That you aren’t going to just leave me, that you aren’t going to decide I’m not worth it,” he said, exposing his largest fear to her. She cupped his cheek and he leaned into it. “I don’t know what the hell is going on in my life right now. But I’ll tell you this, Elliott. You are the only bright spark in it. This isn’t “ some experiment ”.” Unable to resist, he kissed her softly as he withdrew from her. The way she gasped against his mouth made him yearn to start all over again, but they both needed a break a chance to refuel before they could begin again. “Good. Because this,” he said, gesturing between the two of them, “is too damn…precious to be fleeting.””
