"Meeting you was fate, becoming your friend was a choice, but falling in love with you was beyond my control." ~Uknown

Listen to: "Say Love" by James TW

My eyes widened at the realization of Percy's question,

"Yes!" I said in response before I reached up and kissed him, again.

"Thank god, for a second there I thought you were going to say no,"

"What made you think that?" I asked

"I don't know,"

"Well, I said yes,"

"I know, and that makes me happy," he smiled.

"Now what?" I questioned

"What do you mean?"

"I have never had a boyfriend before, I don't know what to do," after I spoke, he chuckled

"I'll show you,"

For the rest of the day, Percy and I walk around by the Pier going into a ton of weird little shops, it was now 8 pm and I told Percy that I had to head home,

"I'll drive you," he offered

"Ok," I agreed.

The drive was silent when we pulled into my driveway, Percy took one hand off the wheel and placed it on mine, he leaned over and kissed my forehead before jumping out of the car to come around and open my door.

"You know, you don't have to do that, I am capable of opening my own door,"

"I know, I just like opening it for you," he smiled and placed one last kiss on my lips before getting back in the car and driving away.

My life was finally going well, I had friends, friends who knew the truth, a boyfriend who knew most of the truth, my parents who knew the full truth and my daughters who I loved more than anything.

Tomorrow I planned on going Christmas shopping with Elle, Scarlette, and Marianna, but I wasn't sure if Scarlette knew the truth yet.

THE NEXT DAY CAME FAST, the night before, I had one of the best nights sleep since before Ace, when I woke up, I had a shower not washing my hair but taking them out of the French braids I put them in the night before. I did light makeup, again not as much as I used to. Then I got dressed in light blue high waisted jeans, a white tank top, and a pink knitted cardigan with my Fila Disrupters. I went downstairs to see Marianna sitting on my couch,

"Hey, you ready?" I asked

"Yup, Scarlette and Elle are meeting us there, also Elle told Scarlette," Marianna filled me in,

"Ok, let's hope that doesn't backfire,"

"it won't, Scarlette might not seem like it but she is really trustworthy. Also, you are driving us, my car isn't working, and you need to practice,"
