All because she was friends with his goddamn cat sitter. How that happened, he has absolutely no idea. But it seemed to be the most serving relationship in the history of at least his and his past lifes.
He had to see her just once. Look into her eyes just once. She didn't even have to say anything. He knew her truths all at once. Knew that she was it.
And after knowing. He couldn't stop.
Even with the long distance. Even with the age gap. He didn't want to stop knowing. So here he is. Staring at his screen again as it rings and rings. Facetime.
The second he picks up he smiles already.
"Hey Lena."
He picks up his already meowing cat. Showing her.
"What you doing?"
His heart thumps so loudly. Multiple reasons. One being he has to tell her something really important.
