Prologue

I'd like to tell you a story about two lovers.

Now, before you go rolling your eyes and say that love stories are for sissies, I want to also tell you that this story is about courage and learning to let go and put others needs ahead of one's own desires.

It's about a boy and a girl who were raised side by side in the country, but didn't find each other until they were in a big city.

It's about coincidence. It's about fate. It's about choice and understanding. But most of all, it's about the power of undying love, and promises of forever; because really, all the best stories are love stories, and all the best stories are about forevers – even when sometimes, forever isn't particularly long.

This story has already happened, and there's no changing its outcome, although, if anyone ever invents a time machine they can sign me up so I can live it over and over again, exactly was it was, because this story is about me and my golden boy who always promised to find a way back to me...
