"Mom is asking if we could spend Christmas we her," I said, walking out to the balcony where Aaron was sipping coffee and looking out at the ocean.

"Sure, that would be nice."

I wrapped my arms around his waist and kissed his back.

This might just be the happiest I have ever been.

After graduating from university, Aaron and I moved into a place close to the sea, which blessed us with beautiful sunsets and sunrises.

And occasionally, whales.

I could see that he was happy as well. He did a lot more smiling and opened up more to me about things that bothered him.

I didn't want to say that he was following in Johnathan’s footsteps, but he was thinking of starting his own art gallery, and I would support him all the way.

"How is your mom doing?" I asked.

"Still not talking to me."

    "Jolie, you told me you understand, so why are you doing this now?" I could hear Aaron saying.I stayed hidden behind the wall so I could hear what they had to say to each other."I do, I did. But seeing you now with her, I just can't. And you are being engaged now. It's too much, Aaron.""Why did you even come? Sharon must have told you what she was planning.""She did, I came because I wanted to prove to myself that we are really done. I thought I could handle it."Aaron made a sound."Aaron, you have to see how fucked up this is, you can't possibly go through with marrying her."Aaron gave a laugh. "And I should marry you?""We love each other, and she is your stepsister."There was a pause, and I feared Aaron was contemplating her words."Jolie, honestly. Even if I were to leave Mia, I would never come back to you. We were never meant for each other."I wished I could see the look on her face as he said that."What are you saying?""With Mia, I can be myself. With you, I had to ki

    Olivia pulled me to the side."Can you help me get the salad?" She asked.I know that it didn't take two people to get the salad, but I knew something like this was coming.

She pulled me into a hug.Ok, that wasn't expected."Uh, doing what?""Helping my little Aaron.""You're welcome..." I was confused. "I know he might not tell you this, and it shouldn't be my place to say. But you saved him.""I did?"She smiled. "Aaron had a rude childhood, and I'm to be blamed for that, before coming to live in Seattle, he was on suicide watch and I had beg Johnathan to take him so he could have better upbringing, but I guess it was too late."Olivia shuffled a few things around in the fridge before taking out the potato salad."Then one day he called me and said that

    By lunchtime, there was a protest around the school to stop animal dissecting at our school."They were only frogs!" Mr. White yelled while walking down the hall.But the protest was put to an end quickly, as soon as the principal threatened to suspend everyone involved, they all scrambled."Well, that was exciting," Tasha said."Beth kind a does have a point," I said. "As much as I am into all this, cutting open an animal was still... disturbing."On our walk to the cafeteria, we walked by Aaron, and I looked back at him to see him staring at me.Was he smiling at me?At that moment, I wondered if he had the same dream as me.He slammed his locker shut, and that dragged me out of my reverie.Tasha and I sat with our other friends, and we talked about the latest anime episodes we had seen over the weekend.Yes, this was what I was used to.

    Saturday, I was at the mall with Tasha in a comic book store looking for new mangas. Then I suddenly remembered when Aaron had said , 'we have a lot in common.'I wondered if he felt that way even now.And as if on cue, the doorbell rang, and in he walked.I tried my best not to follow him, but as faith would have it, we bumped into each other."Sorry," I said, and he walked on without a word.I should really accept reality. We will never be together.I doubled back for a comic I saw, and when I got there, Aaron came up at the same time.Our hands touched, and I swore I felt a spark, but I guess it was just me because he didn't seem to have the same reaction I did."Sorry," I said, and again, no response.But what did I expect? After paying, I hurried out the shop and left Tasha there so I could catch my breath.While standing there, a thought came to me.When Tasha came out, I grabbed her hand."Let's go to Madison Park."She frowned.

    By the end of the school week, rumors had spread around that Aaron and I were a thing. Mostly because they saw us hanging out all the time, but honestly, we never discussed that.I stood at Tasha's locker, laughing at her antics."Hey," Aaron said as he came up to see.Tasha waved at him, but the skeleton she had been hiding in her locker fell out, and that got me laughing all over again.Aaron was in full football gear, ready for practice and the big game tomorrow. "So, there is this romor that we are dating.''I froze up."I want to make those rumors true. That's if you are cool with that.""I... ye... we...""What she means is yes," Tasha cut in as I babbled on."Awesome," Aaron bent down and gave me a kiss on the cheek.When he walked away, Tasha and I squealed and jumped up and down."Oh my God, this is so amazing," she said.It was, I felt so happy, and maybe, just maybe Aaron and I could get engaged and have that happy life I saw in my dream."Are you going to the game tomorro
