14-Look behind you-(Fluff)

"Back then times were different for us. Most days were just texting, there would be a few where we could fit in a decently long phone call. At this point in time we've lived together for a few years, she's still taking college classes at this point, only another year though. Anyways; currently we are laying on the couch. Watching old reruns of an animated show, to be honest, I'm not really paying attention to the show. Not like I ever do. I mean, I get to snuggle into the girl I love. Much better then any show in my opinion. Never did I see us here, never did I think we would come to this point in our life's.
Let me explain-
Around 6 years ago is when I first... met? Her. When I say met, I mean, talked. And when I say talked I mean texted.
Basically, me and her where "internet friends" it had started when I posted a stupid meme on Instagram and she had DMed me a few days later.
"Sorry, I've been laughing at this for days..."

The most random things can spark happiness. And for me, It happed to be the most stupid meme about only god know what. Over the span of a little less then a year the stranger and I became the best of friends, helping me through everything I needed, teaching me what I really needed to be taught. Helping my relationships with everyone I knew.

Honestly, I'm not going to lie. Maybe the stranger had caught my heart with the words over the screen. Should I have brought it up earlier? Probably... However, knowing bits and pieces of the girls past caused me to not ask. She did so much for me over the sort time span.

She saved me.
She helped me.
She made me cry.
She made me happy.
She made me smile.
She changed me.

Did she know any of this? Probably not then, but I'd assume she knows now.

She asked me out- well, asked me to date her. Well, as you might of guessed, I said yes.

Let me just cut to the main part... hearing me ramble about the past is probably boring you.

A few weeks after my own birthday I was out near small strip mall, one of the only ones in town. However, we have a decent restaurant here so that the only reason to come to the town if you didn't live here. Now I had been texting her basically all day, and still am. My mother had sent me on a errand to walk to the dollar store to get a few things for her. I quickly walked inside and bought the items, a box of pencils, a few sharpies, a few bags of chips, and some drinks. Why she needed them? Don't ask me...

Anyway, upon walking out of the building I see something I've only seen in pictures. The brightest blonde hair ever... I whip my head to see the un-missable hair. For a spilt second I was able to see the screen of her phone opened to a Instagram dm. I blink and then look at my phone. She's typing...

Ineedmydoritos92- Hey, Lapis. What's up?

I stare at the message for a moment and then back at the hair, looking at her clothes. That's when I see it, the soccer jersey I've seen in so many pictures I could copy it by heart.

Ineedmydoritos92- Lapis?

I look at the phone. And take a breath.

Water.bluey- Peridot. Do me a favor. Turn around.

I automatically look back up, see the girl along with 2 other figures. Parents I guessed.

I notice the girl furrow her eyebrows in confusion and then turn her head around towards me. There was a moment, then I notice how wide her eyes got and how fast my heart sped up. It really was her. The urge to run to her was unbearable, since her parents were present that made it difficult. But from a distance she stares at each other while her parents fumbled with a map.

I look down to my phone.

Water.bluey- "You're so much more fucking beautiful in person...."

I send the message and then look back to the girl, whom is reading the message with a forming blush I could see from forever away.

Ineedmydoritos92- Shut your face.

I snicker.

Water.bluey- sit on my*

I "corrected" her.

Ineedmydoritos92- LAPIS WHAT THE FUCK!

I notice the girl choke on air.

Water.bluey- XD Sorry.

For a moment we where Able to exchange a few text messages and stares. Unfortunately; not everything can last forever. Her parents had found whatever it was they needed and told her to come along.

However, that wasn't the last.

Right before we both disappear from each other we mouth something to each other.

"I love you."

"I love you too."

Well, this was all several years back. Now we
see each other everyday, each day better then the last. We tell each other the same "I love you" we did back then. And I hope that never changes....."

I raise my own glass as we do a semi professional clank of the glasses all together.

I look towards the girl in the story, Peridot.

"I love you, Ms. Lazuli~" I snicker and she punches my arm.
"I love you too, Lapis Lazuli."
