I’m a firm believer in that everyone deserves a Happy Ending. For people in LDR it is our ultimate goal. Build a relationship, close the distance and live happily ever after… My SO and I talk about it all the time. I’m the writer but he is the one with the romantic vivid imagination, he makes me believe and see in my mind every word he says, every detail. We are always making up stories about how our house or apartment will be, colors, how we will decorate it, where we want to live, what we will do every day since we wake up and how our days will be…
Alarm buzzes. Do we really need to wake up? Time for our morning walk. Coffee and tea in hand, we talk and laugh and hit the shower when we get home. Quick breakfast before we go, kid at school because we both have things to do. During our day I love the little sweet text messages that I get from you while I work. I take my time to reply between cases so you know I’m thinking of you too. Did we schedule our lunch together or not? I can’t wait until I finish work so I can go home. Who was supposed to pick Jay from school? Finally home! A kiss, hello. Music fills the air, I like when you help me cook. We sing, we laugh, let’s dance. We cannot keep our hands to ourselves. Do I smell something burning? After dinner there is time for a movie, snacks, I made dessert. If we could only finish watching it, is it that late? Are you sleepy too? There are more important things to do (You & Me of course) Kid to bed!! All the lights go out, let’s go to bed. Yeah we need to shower first; grab the towel and don’t get my hair wet. Time for ourselves…finally in bed… Day is over. Time to sleep! A Kiss (or more), Good Night, Sweet Dreams, don’t forget to set the alarm…
It’s funny how that sounds like a normal day but when you share it with the one you love, the one you waited all this time to finally be together, it makes all the difference in the world. When you are waiting to spend the rest of your life with someone, the rest of your life will be your Happy Ending even when it’s filled of days like that.
Write your fairytale and plan your happily ever after. It can have as many chapters and pages as you both want just don’t forget to set the alarm.
