Chauncey seethed at the outrageous insult. "And your father?" he demanded, extending the sword. He didn't yet know all his vassals, but he was learning. He would brand the family name of this boy to memory.
Becca Fitzpatrick..."Good, because I need your help." "Help is my middle name." I was pretty sure she'd already told me bad was her middle name, but I kept my opinion to myself.
Becca FitzpatrickI'm touched, Rixon. A bomb. How elaborate. Why didn't you keep things simple and just march inside my bedroom one night and put a bullet between my eyes?" Nora, Crescendo
Becca FitzpatrickI don't have a car." His eyes sliced into mine. "I walked here," I explained. "I'm on foot." "Angel," he said in a way that sounded like he sincerely hoped I was joking.
Becca FitzpatrickI turned my face up to his. I could hardly look at him the same way. I was crying without realizing I'd started. "You made a deal with Hank. You saved my life. Why would you do that for me?" "Angel," he murmured, clasping my face between his hands. "I don't think you understand the lengths I would go to if it means keeping you here with me.
Becca FitzpatrickPatch: โLetโs get out of here.โ โ Nora: โWhere are we going?โ โ Patch: โYouโll see.
Becca FitzpatrickAre you crazy?" I said. "Crazy about you." "Patch!" "Don't worry, we've got time." "How do you know?" He staggered back a step, with his hand over his heart. "Your lack of faith hurts.

Becca FitzpatrickMaybe Scotty the Potty turned into Scotty the Hottie. Have you thought about that?
Becca FitzpatrickI wanted to imprint his touch, his taste, even the scent of him so solidly inside me that no one could take them away from me.
Becca FitzpatrickPatch stood over me, and a drop of rain slid from his hair, landing like ice on my collarbone. I felt it slide along my skin, disappearing beneath the neckline of my shirt. His eyes followed the raindrop, and I began to quiver on the inside.
Becca FitzpatrickFine! I'll throw on some clothes. Turn around. I'm in my pj's" "I'm a guy. That's like asking a kid not to glance at the candy counter.
Becca FitzpatrickI might have been tempted to hit him square in the jaw had he not taken me by the shoulders and pinned me against the wall. There was hardly any space left between us, just a thin boundary of air, but Patch managed to eliminate it. "Let's be honest, Nora. You've got it bad for me." His eyes held a lot of depth. "And I've got it bad for you." He leaned into me and put his mouth on mine. A lot of him was on me, actually. We touched base at several strategetic locations down our bodies, and it took all my willpower to break away.
Becca FitzpatrickI loved you long before you loved me. It's the only thing I have you beat at, and I'll bring it up every chance I get.
Becca FitzpatrickDoes this have anything to do with the unit weโre studying? Because I canโt find anything about desired characteristics of a mate anywhere in our text.
Becca FitzpatrickRight now, holding you, I feel like we have a shot at beating all odds and making it together.
Becca FitzpatrickYou picked the seats you did for a reason, right? Familiarity. Too bad the best sleuths avoid familiarity. It dulls the investigative instinct.
Becca FitzpatrickHere it comes," she said with an expression of pure bliss. "Drug rush ... any moment now ... the surge of warmth ... bye-bye, Mr. Pain..." "Vee-" "Knock, knock." "This is really important-" "Knock, knock." "It's about Elliot-" "Knock, knoooock," she said in a singsong voice. I sighed. "Who's there?" "Boo." "Boo who?" "Boo-hoo, somebody's crying, and it's not me!" She broke into hysterical laughter.
Becca FitzpatrickHow did you get in?" "I move in mysterious ways." "God moves in mysterious ways. You move like lightening-here one moment, gone the next.
Becca Fitzpatrickreading a good book in silence is like eating chocolate for the rest of your life and never getting fat.
Becca FitzpatrickI believe in destiny Angel. I believe every choice I've made has brought me closer to you. I looked for you for a very long time. I may have fallen from heaven, but I fell for you.
Becca FitzpatrickVee never needed a reason to do something stupid. Sad thing was, most of the time I didn't either.
Becca FitzpatrickOr, if you decide you want to sleep at my place, on opposite sides of my bedroom with a Do Not Cross line drawn down the middle, I'll do it. I won't like it, but I'll do it.
Becca FitzpatrickScott: Friends don't let friends drive drunk. Nora: Are you trying to appeal to my conscience? Scott: How can you turn down a once-in-a-lifetime chance to drive the 'Stang? Nora: How about you sell me the 'Stang for thirty dollars? I can even pay cash. Scott: Drunk, but not that drunk, Grey.
Becca FitzpatrickI gave up something I wanted for something I need. And I need you, Angel. More than I think you'll ever know.
Becca FitzpatrickShh!" the guy beside me hissed again. "Blame him," I told the guy, pointing at Patch. The guy craned his neck back. "Listen," he said, facing me again. "If you don't quiet down, I'll get security." "Fine, go get security. Tell them to take him away," I said, again signaling Patch. "Tell them he wants to kill me." "I want to kill you," hissed the guy's girlfriend.
Becca FitzpatrickYour past wouldnโt frighten me,โ I said, buckling my seat belt across my lap. โIโm guessing Iโd be more appalled than anything.
Becca FitzpatrickNo, hear me out. The long answer to that question is that everything about me has changed since meeting you. What I wanted five months ago is different from what I want today. Did I want a human body? Yes, very much. Is it my top priority now? No." He looked at me with serious eyes."I gave up something I wanted for something I need. And I need you, Angel. More than I think you'll ever know. ~Patch
Becca Fitzpatrick...I need a boyfriend. And to get a boyfriend, you have to look good. Doesnโt hurt to smell good too.
Becca FitzpatrickReady?" Despite the grim mood, I smiled and cracked my knuckles. "Ready to wrestle with my gorgeous boyfriend? Oh, I'd say I'm ready for that." Amusement softened his eyes. "I'll try to control where I put my hands, but in the heat of things, who knows what could happen?" I added. Patch grinned. "Sounds promising.
Becca FitzpatrickI love you,Nora. Whatever happens, promise me you'll remember that. I don't care why you came into my life,only that you did. I don't remember all the things i did wrong. I remember what i did right, I remember you. You made my life meaningful. You made my life special.
Becca FitzpatrickIf I had known things would turn out this way, I would have trained harder. I would have learned to take care of myself. But I guess that's the point, isn't it? You never know what you're going to have to face, so you'd better be prepared.
Becca FitzpatrickItโs so real." "Most dreams are. It isn't until you wake up that you see all the plot holes.
Becca FitzpatrickI want to wake up with you every morning and fall asleep beside you each night,โ Patch told me gravely. โI want to take care of you, cherish you, and love you in a way no other man ever could. I want to spoil you โ every kiss, every touch, every thought, they all belong to you. Iโll make you happy. Every day, Iโll make you happy.
Becca FitzpatrickPatch? Whatever happens, I love you." I wanted to say more, those three words painfully inadequate for the way I felt about him. And at the same time, so simple and accurate, nothing else would do.
Becca FitzpatrickArrogance can be deadly.โ The corners of his mouth crept up. โBut you didnโt hear me say that.
Becca FitzpatrickTry it on." "It's probably a little snug. Marcie tends to buy down when it comes to sizing." He merely smiled. "It has a slit up the thigh." His smile depened. "Zip it up?" Patch's eyes made a slow assessment of me, sharpening to vivid black. "I'm going to have a hard time sending you off with Scott in that dress. Just a heads-up: If you come home and the dress looks even slightly tampered with, i will track Scott down, and when i find him, it won't be pretty.
