because we both barely remember the first time we ever laid eyes on each other i'd call it love at every sight

and at the moment where i barely knew you, i do recognize the feeling

but at every corner of my mind i knew it all remained; all those fancy old rides, worn-out photos, walky-talky conversations and night scares

i called you my best friend and i still do, and inevitably i can't help but fall into that hopeless pit

nevertheless, i found myself completely lost with you in our own space, like we were there with the power of sixth sense

from one's point of view, it was out of the question to even have faith on us chancing on each other

ariella:

call me dramatic, but somehow somewhere, my mind would still wander off of reality and just think about you. everybody would probably just point that out and judge that it was pretty dismal and pathetic of me.

i carried on really, there wasn't much of a choice for me to decide on and then some sham happens and i just was lost with all the slurs.

take me back to that time; where we acted like grown-ups and said our goodbyes and worried about what it would be like if we were actually grown ups.

you know i told you that i wasn't scared, well i lied.

harry:

the night was through and the crowds left, and i'm still not complete. fame wasn't to fill it all in, i guess. you just weren't there.

so i got going and found four best friends and i was pretty passionate with how my life was coming through and i bet there is a lot of "but's" to add. i leaned in on writing and never took credit for it.

because you were mine for the summer, but i knew it was nearly over. felt like snow in september but i'll always remember you were my summer love. you always will be. i'd go through everything to finally feel you weren't for one season only.

destiny - /ˈdestinē/ (n)

cliche but/and very much unlikely to happen.

but what if it does happen. that maybe we look like we are making a fool of ourselves to believe in it but also a bigger fool on choosing to ignore it. story short, in ariella and harry's lives it did happen and a finger to sky for reality but it will transpire. even unexpected shit is destined to come about.

there is so much about them and it starts on the first chapter, everything after, breaks loose and they're off to an ending or eternity or whatever comes. not really saying they were in love but they may be? not really telling you chances were given and that terminal and paused events where going to take place but there could be?
