You and Me

If you were to write a story of us...

A story of you and me!

What would it be?

How would you begin it?

What would your very first line be about?

Mine would be about the rain.

It was in early October.

I got out of my car loathing every rain drop that was hitting me.

The cold bit me.

When summer dies I die too.

Even when the first snow falls, I'm in deep denial that the warm weather has vanished.

I try to ignore the cold and engulf myself with summery things and memories.

As I opened my car door to get everything I needed, my laptop fell out.

It crashed onto the ground and splashed right into a puddle.

Just my luck.

After class I sat in the commons and watched the sheets of water come down.

I hated this rain.

I didn't want to drive home in it.

On Facebook I wrote that I wasn't having the best day.

My uncle commented: At least you aren't pregnant!

I saw someone liked his comment.

Who was it?

I bet it was my mom! Yeah. It was totally my mom.

...Maybe my sister?

No!

It was you.

A man on my friends list whom I had never really talked to!

The fact that you liked his comment amused me to no end.

and then I thought..

Why have someone on your friends list who you don't ever speak to?

I should say hello!...

So...I said hello.

Our conversation was short but good.

I told you about how I hated driving in the rain.

You said you cycle in the rain. It immediately made me feel very lucky to have a car.

Maybe driving in the rain wasn't so bad after all!

The hello turned into more hellos.

Our greetings turned into long conversations.

They turned to good, solid, golden, long conversations that surprised us both.

Now here we are! A great team.

A team with an ocean between us.

I wont let it stop me.

There's no way I'm letting it get in the way now..

This is just too good.

It's not everyday you talk to someone who can make you feel.

Let alone someone who you literally CAN feel.

Someone who just gets you.

Someone who clicks with you in a way others do not or can't.

Someone you can be random and yourself with.

Someone who can make you smile.

Who can make your heart pump.

Your mind sweat.

Your eyes light up.

Your soul ache.

Your yearning is set on fire.

This fire isn't just a fire..it's more than a fire.

There isn't a doubt in my mind I've stumbled across someone special.

and to think it all started because of my laptop falling into a puddle.

I love the rain!

What would your first line be?

...Sailors do believe in destiny. I can picture well your beautiful writing in real life.

What would your first line be?, you ask. I have my own answer, The Beatles. When I listened its double Lp called "The Blue Album" for first time on an old record player in 1979, I was shocked,(well the right expression is "I was flipping out). "What music so different!! " It is amazing!!. I was really excited.
Long time has passed from that wonderful moment in my life.
