I hand over some files to and her eyes meet mine, all cool and sweet like a snow-cone in July.
Liz ReinhardtNow my heart is desperate in my chest, like a bird crashing into a window over and over again, confused that it can't get to what it sees and wants, and willing to kill itself in the attempt to remedy that.
Liz ReinhardtYou're welcome, ma'am."
My head whips up at the ma'am.
Not that I haven't heard that word spilled like sticky sweet syrup from a thousand mouths of a thousand boys who've been born and bred to use it everyday.
There's something about this boy, the way that word just slides off his tongue, buoyed with cautious respect and elegant pleasure.

Liz ReinhardtYou’re deceptively good, Blix. Just the perfect amount of bitch to be sexy.

Running away is a way to play a dirty trick on the perfect fate that will suffocate you if you’re not careful.
