How is no one but me shocked by how fast this happened?
Karen
Eli. You and Lara got married three months after you met on Tinder… realizing you’re in love with a girl who you’ve been friends with for over twenty years isn’t a surprise.
Me
I’m kind of kicking myself that it took so long to see it
Karen
I bet you are, kid.
Give yourself some grace. On both accounts.
Me
I’ll try. Thanks Mom
Karen
Anytime hon. You know we’re always here for you.
Hopefully we’ll be seeing more of Sibyl on this next trip then??
Me
It really doesn’t bother you?
Karen
No Eli. It really doesn’t bother us.
We want you and Tucker to be happy. If that just happens to be with the incredible Sibyl Massy who are we to question it?
Me
She’ll be around then. If I can find her to apologize
Karen
grovel if you have to. Sibyl is a special one
Me
That she is
Hazel’s squeal pulls me away from my phone. The earsplitting sound makes all of us flinch.
“You guys have over a million views and counting!” She shoves her phone under my nose. Sibyl and I appear on the screen. The video is less than a minute-long, but I feel every single heated stare. Every stolen kiss, every earth-shattering smile, like it’s still happening.
I told Sibyl I needed to make her mine, and it’s never felt truer than in this moment. I was stupid to let her go, stupid to wish I’d never let it go that far. Truth is, it’ll never be enough where Sibyl is concerned.
I need her in my life. In my house. On my bed. In my arms. Mine. I don’t think I’ve ever needed anything more. Ever.
