Gracie Quotes

1. "Wade sighed. "I'll never understand why women wear bras to start with. They look uncomfortable as hell." "They're not that bad.""Turn around so I can fasten the damn thing for you."She refused to let go. Suddenly it seemed important to do this one small task alone. "I can do it, Wade. I need to get used to doing things with this cast."He crossed his arms over his chest as he watched her struggle. "Is it so hard to ask for help from me, Gracie?"She tried the two small hooks once more, but failed to get them both attached. "No, it's just that I'm not used to people offering, I guess."He moved around her and helped fasten the contrary hook. When she turned to tell him thanks, he placed his finger over her lips and murmured, "If you thank me, I'll spank you. Knowing I haven't been able to catch your stalker, that he broke into your home and trashed your things and I wasn't able to stop him makes me feel as fucking useless as tits on a bull. The least I can do is fasten your bra."
