Disclaimer: Characters and story plot are my own works and figments of my imagination, I was however inspired by George Strait's song Carried Away.

Elena and Matthew, two adults who have been scorned in their love lives, one tired of being played and the other bored with the pointless one-night stands. Infuriated with the idea of being love, they join a dating site, LOVE4YOU, in hopes of meeting new people to hang out with and date. Unexpectedly, Matthew stumbles upon Elena's profile and is captivated by her personality and beauty unbeknownst that they are at least 900 miles apart.

Despite having been hurt in the past, both ultimately find the love they'd been searching for through their experience, even though they are polar opposites.

"Despite the fact that you are truly the most infuriating person that I've ever met.. you're still the only person that's on my mind. It's as though I get carried away but nothing truly matters unless you're the person that I'm going to spend the rest of my life with." He breathed out as Elena watched him in awe.

"I know that we haven't exactly had good history of declaring our emotions without the other getting scared, but I'm tired of pretending with you and feigning interest in other women when nothing matters but being with you. I want to be with you and I hope you'd want to be with me just as badly." He continued.

I get carried away by the look by the light in your eyes
Before I even realize the ride I'm on baby I'm long gone
I get carried away nothin' matters but bein' with you
Like a feather flyin' high up in the sky on a windy day, I get carried away.
