“Rearrange your schedule. Tell your clients you’re taking a long weekend,” I tell her. “We’re going to fly down to Costa Rica and tell him face to face.”
“Are you serious?”
“As a heart attack, love.”
Maeve squeals and claps her hands then turns and bolts for the bedroom. I watch her go and feel my heart grow ten sizes too big for my chest. I don’t know what I’ve done to deserve such a woman and such a life, but I’m grateful for it. I wake up and goto bed every single day thanking the stars above that we’ve found each other in this life.
I’m hers and she’s mine.
And that’s a beautiful thing. A more beautiful thing than I ever thought I’d have.
She’s turned my life on its head and changed the way I see everything about myself and the world around me.
It’s disorienting at times, but it’s the most wonderful thing I’ve ever experienced. I love Maeve with every single piece of my heart and every single day, I feel like I’m walking through a dream.
Only better, because it’s real.
That girl has captured my heart and has given my life meaning. Purpose. And best of all, she’s given me a love I never knew existed.
To say I’m thankful for her would be an understatement.
But I am.
I’m grateful to and for her. And for this life we’re sharing.
And I’m never, ever going to let her go.
The End
