Will and I have been dating for three months now. And now that I have beenmoved to Realtor, my time opened up. I have moved many couples, expecting, to a nicer home with more bedrooms. 

At nine in the morning, I rode to the office. On my way, I passed the school and immediately thought of Willow Grayson. Not noticing the deer walking on the street until seconds from hitting them, I swerved. My bike fell, and I hit my head on the stone street. I don't remember what happened next.

I didn't  remember Will running up to me to check my pulse. I didn't remember going to the medic. 

I woke up in a hard hospital bed. And there sat my Will Grayson, asleep. My arm was in a sling, my head with a small bandage. 

I got out of bed and walked over to the clothes machine. I quickly got dressed so if Willow woke up it wouldn't be awkward. I kissed her perfect forehead. 

Her eyes fluttered open, "Morning, love".

"Good morning", I said, "How long was I out?"

"A day."

"Lets go home, I'm fine now", I gave her my hand.

We walked home with our bikes.  She talked about her day. She didn't really teach yet but she was making worksheets for each curriculum.  She is teaching one class for thirteen years, then the system repeats. 

We finally get home, and go to the garden. We invited our friends to dinner tonight, Periwinkle and Danny. 

I met Danny at the bike repair, and Will met Periwinkle at the school. As much as we wanted them to be together, we didn't push it. It wasn't long until Periwinkle had told us she was gay. Obviously, we told her that it didn't matter and that we would always love her. 

For dinner Will and I made fried chicken, and a fresh salad with mango. I got stuck with killing the chicken. I whispered sorry before I killed her. 

"Thanks babe", Will kissed me. 

I just smiled, I hate blood.


She went to her house to change into something other than her grubby clothes. I went to my room to change into a collared shirt and khakis. 

I took the chicken out of the oven, and set it on the stove to cool. A knock at the door made me jump.

"I'll get it", said Will running through the open glass door.

I heard Will and Periwinkle greet each other, Danny wasn't far behind. 

Will was wearing a bright red dress and Peri wore black. We hugged and sat down for dinner. 

Danny talked about his job, how all the bikes needed repairing after Wednesday, "Its like their parents never told them to not leave their bike outside when it rains".

Peri told us some truly exciting news, she met someone. Her name is Anna and they are going to go on a hike through the woods.

After dinner we played a board game, and decided to go our separate ways. 

It was about 23:30 when Will and I decided stop kissing each other and for me to go back to my house. 

"I love you", Will said.

"Willow Grayson Jensen, I love you to Pluto and back."

She slipped through the door and into the night.
