Griffin laughed in amusement. His smile was contagious.

"Hey lovebirds!" a voice exclaimed. I looked to see Future. Her hair dark was braided and coming off to one shoulder. Her face was seemingly stuck in a smile.

I looked at Future. But this time I really looked at her, inspecting her face and body as well as clothes and body language and just took a moment to just absorb my best female friend Future was thin but definitely had curves where they counted. She didn't have freckles like her brother. But she did have seashell pink lips just like her brother.

The way she looked could make Ms. Universe feel like she should sit down with a bag of chips and watch old Disney movies and give up like Future sometimes does minus the give up part of course.

Future's flat out beautiful.

"I got the job! I got the job!" Future exclaimed. From the way she smiled it looked like she won a million dollars and a puppy.

"What happened?" I asked. Future's round hazel eyes looked like they would pop out of their sockets.

"Oh my god the surgery worked, your eyes are brown not white anymore!" if one more super exciting thing happens to her she will probably explode from sheer excitement.

Twice in one year? Excited Future seems to be popping up a lot lately.

"How many fingers am I holding up?" she asked, holding up seven fingers.

"Seven." I responded.

"Future?" Griffin asked. "Your exciting News?"

"Oh yeah, I just got signed to river and falls records!" she exclaimed.

We wrapped her in a giant hug in congratulations.

"When did you and I get so cliché all of a sudden?" he laughed. I let out a playful 'Ack, you're so right.' I made a face. Then we proceeded to turn into a giggling mess.

Griffin placed a kiss on my cheek. The sensation left a buzzing feeling on my face. Nothing in the world could feel as right as his kisses.

Fairy tales about pixies, pumpkin carriages, unicorns and fairy godmothers, wasn't HALF as magical as his embrace. Or maybe it's just euphoria.

It doesn't matter, I have GOT to stop overthinking things before I seriously screw myself up again and there is in way in hell I'm doing this whole story over again to recover from lord knows what could be next although I wouldn't change one thing.
