Danielle Smith Quotes

Suck on this, Edward.

I looked back to see who would be Xander’s partner. My mouth gaped open. Danielle Quincy. Really? Of all the people… Obviously, she would go for Xander. Anyone in their right mind would go for Xander. Clearly, I was all up in my left mind.

This was it. I had front row seats to the beginning of Xander and Danielle. Tonight, he would kiss her if he hadn’t already. Groping would ensue, and then removal of their clothes because they were in the way of the groping. Lips would be all over each other, hands touching parts only touched in private. Her blonde hair would spread over him as they moved like that in bed. Oh, they were going to have sex! The way they were dancing, they wouldn’t even make it to a bed; it would be down in the fish room. Those poor fish wouldn’t know it was coming, still happily sucking down their stinky flakes. They would scare the fish!
