As I lie on my deathbed, I reminisce on my life, the amazing moments I shared with both Nick and Derek. The butterflies I longed to feel since I was twenty years old.
Derek and I made up, but we never got back together, I knew I couldn't be with him again. He ended up leaving his assistant, neither of us remarried.
I still believe in soulmates, I was just unlucky that I only got a few years with mine. I had the ring Nick gave me around my finger, the sight of it made me happy.
I've done things I regret, but I won't let those mistakes ruin me. I look forward to seeing Nick again, I know he'll be even more beautiful than I remember. As I take my last breath, a smile comes to my lips
*****
I open my eyes to see a pair of beautiful eyes I hadn't seen in sixty years."Nick?"
"Welcome home Malaki."
