“I think I just made us both come on the beach.”
“Is this a dream?”
“Must be. Because I think I might’ve just broken a whole lot of rules and promises.”
“Then let’s not wake up.”
Love Hive:
CookieJ:Um, guys, do you think that was a bit too much of Eros Spell?
Ninasunshine:Willa, I told you, just two shots. That was all. Where did that army of red aphrodisiac come from?
Willoflove:That wasn’t me!!! I swear, I just brought the first two rounds.
CookieJ:Fanny! Why are you so quiet over there?
Toughtolove:You can’t prove it.
Ninasunshine:Oh rainbows…she did it.
Burnyourheart:What did you do? Why were they basically climbing each other before the date even started???
Willoflove:Not to worry! The effects wear off quite fast. Even after a dose like that. And really, Eros Spell doesn’t make you do anything you weren’t already thinking or wanting. So…no harm done?
Toughtolove:I knew I liked you, Willa.
Burnyourheart:I knew it was a mistake to get you all involved.
Ninasunshine:Oh, no you don’t! We have a 100% success rate. We even offer guarantees with our services.
Burnyourheart:Mm-hmm, tell that to Griff and Julie when they wake up tomorrow morning. Shit, I should go find them before they do something stupid.
Toughtolove:Don’t you dare! I’m not above tackling you to the ground. Let the love play out.
Burnyourheart:If I ever and I mean ever get the stupid idea to come for your help again, someone please slap me hard enough to beat it out of me.
Joydon’tpissmeofflevine:No worries, dear brother-in-law, I got you.

“If you’re a bird, I’m a bird.” – The Notebook
“Let’s go.” Julie yanks my arm suddenly, making me stumble on my steps as I wince at the wetness in my pants.
I don’t think I’ve come in my pants since I was what? Like fifteen? What an interesting coincidence…
“When did you get so strong? And where are we going?” Look at that, I didn’t even slur this time.
“My humble habitat.”
“You have to be more clear because knowing you it could be your home or the middle of the mountain, somewhere with lots of flowers or radishes. You know, I really wanted to see your radishes.”
“Home. We’ll keep the middle of the mountain with lots of flowers for our wedding.” She hiccups.
“We’re getting married?” Is it just me or do I sound way too excited right now? But I think she just said I get to have her for the rest of my life, so why wouldn’t I be excited?
