4) Cute animals

She squeals softly when she sees the bunch of young kittens – eyes opening wide when her mother tells her to pick one.


3) Beloved plaything

She wasn’t the kind of girl to play with dolls or play house – she’d rather hang out with the boys, climbing trees and going on a treasure hunt – the handmade bow her father gave her one day accompanies her on all her explorations.


22) Watching a beautiful person

The first time Caithlynn realized that she was a little different from the boys she always played with, was when she looked – really looked – at Alan swimming in the river and she caught herself thinking that he was cute and beautiful.


6) Not being sick anymore

Once she had been really sick – never before had she felt so miserable – but when Alan passed by with his mother’s chicken soup and a soft whispered “you have to get better soon”, she smiled and pretended to be okay, just to see him smile and make the sad look on his face go away.


18) Favorite book

Caithlynn has three copies of her favorite book : one lying next to her bed, one standing on the bookshelves, and one she carries with her – always.


5) Got it done finally

When they were in high school, she finally picked up the courage to kiss him – she fled before he could react though.


9) Sunny day

The next day he finds her in the park – reading her book while enjoying the sun – and he surprises her by kissing her back.


25) A cookie

Alan’s mother always spoiled them with homemade chocolate cookies when she came over – after all these years, she still does.


13) First in line

They went to university in different towns and they knew that the little time they could spend together during the weekends was precious, so they made sure they were always the first ones to leave campus and get on the train back home.


2) Night out

There was no routine in their weekends, but they often found themselves going out Saturday night : a dance, a movie, meeting up with mutual friends, a party, …


8) Sleeping in

Caithlynn found herself looking forward to the Sunday mornings that followed : waking up in his arms and not having anything to do but enjoy his company.


16) Unexpected call

The first year at university would be the first time Alan wasn’t going to be there to celebrate her birthday, so when she answered the door and saw him standing there, her heart skipped a beat and she had to fight back tears of joy.


19) Hugs

She wasn’t planning on letting him escape her embrace at all that evening.


24) A glass of wine

They watched the stars together, enjoying each others company and a glass of wine while the moon made her shine.


17) Running into a friend

The next day she waves him off at the train station, sad to see him leave, but when she runs into a bunch of friends in town, a smile finds its way back to her lips.


23) Someone else got pulled over

Of course the one time the police controlled the road she took home after a Saturday night party, was the one time she forgot her driver’s license at home – luckily she did not have to stop to show her papers.


21) Inspiration

She took Art Classes – though she didn’t dare to show him her work yet – and he was her muse.


10) A little extra money

One of her teachers always said she had a talent, but when visitors of the school’s exhibition actually told her they’d liked to buy her work – she was stunned.


11) Playing hooky

Caithlynn made it no habit to skip classes – not in high school, not even at university – but sometimes, when she got such a sweet text message from Alan, she just couldn’t help it.


12) Found something missing

She tries to ignore her phone that keeps ringing – desperately searching for the necklace Alan gave her two years ago – though eventually she picks up (because her friend just doesn’t give up and the ringing drives her crazy) and when she hears Tessa’s “you’ve forgotten your necklace at my place last night”, she wants to pull her through the phone and hug her.


14) Loved one left a note

After university they buy a house and always when he has to leave really early for work, she finds a post-it note in the fridge with a sweet message.


20) Peaceful moments alone

Her work is hard and stressful and sometimes when she gets back home, she just needs some quiet time alone.


7) Long shower

A long hot shower always helps to relax her tensed muscles.


15) Thanks for what you do anyway

She knows she is not always an easy person to live with, but each weekend she surprises him with something and it is her way of saying ‘thank you for loving and supporting me’.


1) Overheard good news

They had agreed on marrying – she never expected him to surprises her and ask her, they just agreed to it and picked a date – though when they visit her parents (often on Sunday) and she hears Alan ask her father’s permission to marry her, she can’t help but love him even more.

So sweet! I love the development of their relationship, from their first awkward advances as teenagers to their little romantic touches toward each other in college, to the final section.

Your tag has been added.

Also, this is SUPER sweet. I'm glad Caithlynn has at least one universe where she's this happy.
