April's Pov:
I began travelling and resuming my work as a novelist. Alex has been supportive more than I thought he would be. I couldn't have been luckier to say the least. But now that the hype with the wedding has subsided,I have noticed a change in Kyra. She has been smiling a lot lately. I mean A LOT. And the reason is the one and only Kevin.
The hot and good looking best friend of my husband. And as luck would have It, Kevin likes her too. Guess I have been to wound up in My own joys that I forgot to check up on my friends. They would look good together. I'm sure of it. They deserve to be together.
Kyra+Kevin= Kyvin.
Seemed perfect.
I just hoped it would work out. Just like me and Alex.
Kevin's Pov:
Flashback to the wedding:
April and Alex were perfect. Their wedding a pure fairytale. After a lifetime of pain in Alex's life, he deserve a forever of happiness. April has an aura around her, that no one can resist. Maybe it's why he fell well, he was bound to fall in love. A soulmate is your true love, your partner in life, till death. I waited just like Alex, but I didn't lose hope. Not a bit. But I almost did. But it seemed my heart knew, that I would find her. I did. And how awesome she was the bride's best friend, Kyra. Seems like a cliche story. I fall for my friend's best friend, but not to me.
Kyra, Kyra.. She is beyond beautiful. Brown eyes not the plain brown, they could never be plain to me. I wanna drown in them,swim deep in the depths of them. She a mystery, while I would be the one to dive into her secrets. She possessed a spark, an attitude, something that struck me similar to April. Maybe she has a smart mouth too. Similar yet different. Her heart a pure treasure. I intended to keep her forever.
I decided to text her.
Kevin: "Hey."
Kyra: "Hey Kevin."
Kevin:" So I need your advice on something."
Kyra: "Sure, Tell me. "
Kevin: "I have this girl on my mind and I wanna ask her out, without seeming eager. I admit I am eager tho ;)
Kyra: "Who might this girl be?" ;)
Kevin: "Her name is Kyra. She is super pretty, she hasn't left my mind since I met her. "
Kyra:" Lucky girl."
Kevin: "I'm the one who is lucky tho. I'm nervous. What if she says no?"
Kyra: "Well she says yes."
Kevin:"So is this a date?"
Kyra:"It is a date."
Kevin:❤
Kyra: ❤
As the time drew near, I grew impatient nervous, with worry. I stood outside her door shaking. I knocked and stood waiting. She opened the door and I lost my footing, like the wind had been knocked, right out of me. I forgot how to breathe, by just looking at her. Her hair in soft curls, makeup just right, that made me want to stare, at her pretty face all day. She wore a blue strapless dress, that stopped at the knees. She looked beautiful, beyond words.
She walked towards me smiling and I thought I noticed a little blush on her cheeks. She lost her footing and slipped, but I caught her in my arms to ensure she didn't fall. And I looked into her chocolate brown eyes and I was lost. Maybe she was lost just like I was, cause in that moment time stopped just for a few minutes, it felt like nothing mattered. Truly nothing did, but just this amazing moment.
We spent the night, trying to know each other better. Her smile was dazzling. She was captivating, like casting a spell on me. Time flew very quickly. And it was time to leave. Though I didn't want to. Honest. But as we walked it felt like time had somehow slowed down, somehow wanting to give me more time. I didn't want the night to end. But all good things come to an end.
We stood outside her door, not wanting to leave nor did she.
She smiled turned to leave. But then I wanted a few moments more. That wouldn't be enough. I knew. I took her wrist and pulled her against me. Hearts racing. Minds in a whirl. It seemed right however. I wasn't going to let go. The past few weeks made that sure.
"I love you."
My forehead, resting against hers, eyes closed anticipating what was next.
She was silent. Her silence scared me. Maybe its too soon. Maybe I shouldn't have said it. I should have waited. But love knocks once, you have to let it in when it does, or you lose it forever. And I wasn't going to, no matter how crazy, absurd that sounded. I knew what my heart wanted, she was standing right in front of me.
Then she said it the words, that made my heart race and stop completely.
"I love you."
And in that moment everything seemed right, it wasn't supposed to but it did.
This girl was going to be the death of me, but she will always be, the girl who stole my heart away...
