Who would've knew you'd become such a famous star? Girls gawk in awh, as boys try to mimic your perfection terribly. I didn't know, all of this time, as the years passed me by. I made sure I'd seen all of your projects, and followed you along the way. Distantly though, very distantly. "I cannot believe you traveled back in time! I cannot believe you traveled back in time, and fell in love with Luna's missing son! I still cannot believe you're telling me this five years later!" "Hush before you wake Dawston. He just fell asleep. And is a cranky one when woken suddenly." I vastly responded, grabbing a teddy bear off of the floor, and setting it onto the couch. Eliza was eagerly chasing me around, an attempt to get more answers out of me. Laughing at this, I watched her utterly amused. "I know my son Grant. But do not try to change the subject. We are going to the states! And you're going to see him again. I mean this is all that I've ever dreamed. A real romance movie. And you're the star! Besides, I already packed your things. Abby!" Racing into the next room with her boots clonking everywhere I followed, "We are staying here Eliza!" "Abby!" Her chocolate eyes rolled lovingly. As she crossed her arms over her chest, and glared at Eliza questioning her sanity. "Yes Eliza." We've been living with each other since we graduated, and every day has been of something new. Something exciting, and full of laughter. Well that, and of course my cousin was a bloody handful. Also listening to Abby and Joss argue about the smallest of things seemed to entertain, Eliza and I. Turning to face me with her arms crossed mischievously. I widened my eyes in height of my attitude. "Are you ready?" Eliza asked Abby, ultimately ignoring my disapproval. "Yes Eliza, I'm ready. I packed Dawston a bag as well, everything is set to go. We have to be at the airport in twenty, now what are we waiting for? Let's go, let's go!" "You knew about this! The entire time?" Deeply appealed by my discovery I stomped my feet onto the wooden floor beneath me. Trailing behind Eliza and Abby. "Hey, I'm a good liar when I need to be, let's go! Before we run out of time, Joss is going to meet us there, so we should hurry." Smiling with excitement Abby, fumbled with holding onto her bags. Defeatedly complying, I dragged myself along in their excitement. Grabbing Dawston, his small body cradled me. As I leaned my head on him in comfort. The aching thought of questioning came to mind, but I tossed it away, as I climbed in the cab. Why question the good things?
We were driving, and headed to the airport. While I sat with a fluttering heart of unknowing, and a weakening bulge of limbs, I was scared. Yet despite all of this, I felt as if you were right there. Right beside me as I stepped on the plane, and it hit the sky with its heavy weight. And as the hours passed on, that was when everything, every moment, came swarming my mind with passion; with excitement. It was time to create new ones, and I was so prepared to make them with you. I tried to practice my lines over and over. But what could I possibly remember to say when I see you? "Alright Grant, we'll make a ruckus and you go on and talk to him." We were standing outside of the studio. Hundreds of press related photographers were swooped around the entire premises. Hoping to get an award winning shot of such a beauty. I wasn't worried that the fame might've gotten to his head. Because Stone is unchangeable, he always has been. Humble, kind, and loving. A hot head, yes. But only if pushed far enough. "Well...where is he?" "Shhh... patience Eliza. Patience." Abby reminded, Eliza. But I felt the apprehension sink inside of me, as the doors opened; and the flashes of the cameras started flashing. And there he was, in his glorified beauty. Standing stronger, and taller, than he did long ago. It was Stone Avils, my dream come true. And he smiled with a haunting vengeance. One of such gladness, it drew the blood of my very soul. Waving his hand with ease, he made his way through the crowd, as I nervously backed away. Tripping on my ankle, I watched my heel snap in two. I stumbled a bit, "Doesn't he look great?"

Looking over my shoulder, it was Joss behind me. "I took my time creating his life ya' know? Cupid and Aphrodite, doubted me. I can dabble in mortal lives, and make them something truly special. Like I have with Abby, who's to say a God, cannot love a human goddess, hmm?" Images blared through my mind like a loud stereo system. From the moment I first met Joss, and to now, as he confessed his true identity. "I am Chronos, I am the God of time, far, from a gatekeeper Grant Everly. And it is a secret, to be kept. Just between you, and I." Supporting my unbalanced stance, Joss, kept me up with the palm of his hand. Shoving me viciously into another. Into Stone. "So-sorry, I'm so sorry." Laughing, he called off his security with the wave of a hand. "Now, now Grant Everly. What is there to be sorry of? You're here now. All is well." "How do you even remember me? How do you still look the the-..." "Love is beyond time, my mind cannot forget such happiness, such thrills of peace. Yet despite our separation, we have prevailed, and here we are. In a different place, a different city, and a different time. But none of that matters, now does it?" "N-no." Smiling down at me, he grabbed my hand territorially. "I do recall you promised me, if we ever found each other again, you'd marry me. And after your departure I saved up a lot of money, to buy you a ring. I hate to do things unprepared ya know, but, I have carried it around for years. Waiting for this moment. Waiting to lay my ailed eyes on your mesmerizing stature of grace and beauty once more. To ask for your delicate hand in marriage. I suppose I'll wait until later though, your friends seem a bit famished. Shall we go enjoy tacos? They've become such a favorite meal of mine, I find myself eating them daily." Scooping me with one arm I found myself dying of an elated sound of laughter. ---------------- Once, there was a you, before there ever was a me. But now, as I sit at a table amongst all of whom I love, I can fully say now. That there is a me, with a you. In a time, that will forever be ours. And there could be nothing more, that I could ever possibly wish for, than to be here. To accept now, and not be of any worrying of the later. Joss told me time will forever be against me. But just like reality lies, so does time. For he had grown to love us so, that he twisted his hands to give us happiness. As he, now, has his own. Something we all never had,
