Once in a while you meet someone special and you know immediately that you two are meant to be. More often than not you are wrong. But every now and then it's not a mistake. Once in a while it's the one. That only ever happens once. Sometimes you never meet the one for you. Sometimes mistakes are made and you miss out. I thought that person was me. Right from Thanksgiving when I was 17 up until the night we shared our first real kiss. Then I knew that no mistake would ever be made again. Not between us. I know were right and so does he.
The night we told our friends we were more nervous than we had been when we admitted how we felt about each other. He was nervous about what Grace would say. I wasn't, all she wanted was for him to be happy. She would be pleased I knew. I was right. It was Karen I was wrong about. I thought she would be mad. She hates him. She said so. Admittedly they get along a lot better than they used to and I think they're starting to like each other though I doubt either will ever admit to it. They may be friends but neither of them is willing to say it. Maybe they don't even realize it themselves. Instead she just sighed and said "At last! You two mo's have discovered you're in love!" I was shocked to say the least. So was he. When asked how she'd known and for how long she replied "Since I first saw you two together. The way you kept looking at each other and casually touching was so obvious, it made me wonder if I was sober." Later that night I saw her take him aside and talk to him angrily for a few minutes before breaking down and throwing herself into my stunned lovers arms. When I asked later what it was about he said she was warning him never to hurt me. I knew that was totally unnecessary because he would never intentionally hurt me. And I would never hurt him. We'll never get tired of each other. We'll never hate each other. Sure we'll fight, all couples do. But that doesn't mean we'll stop loving each other. Because sometimes it's just meant to be. And me and Will are one of those. Were meant to be.
