DISCLAIMER: It's Valentines day so I don't have to justify this. So yeah. Enjoy you cynical bastards. Happy Valentines day.
----------------------------------------
One day there is a boy. He is an awkward boy. He watches a lot of TV some say too much TV. He likes to imagine his life as a TV show. He one day meets a girl, she is an artist. She learned from her dad. She is a very pretty girl. The two are in kindergarten together. The girl likes the boy. The boy is oblivious, still dreaming with his head stuck in the clouds. The boy makes his friends pretend to act in movies. The girl would always play along. The boy is in many plays. He is a munchkin and a paper boy and all kinds of things in plays. The boy and girl hang out a lot, the girl really likes the boy. He is still obvious. One day the boy moves to a new school. He doesn't tell the girl. The girl is heart-broken to find her friend gone. The boy does not fit in at his new school. He doesn't really know how to make friends. He still day dreams and plays make-believe with the kids who do befriend him. He still dreams of his life as a TV show. He enjoys writing. He writes stories. He rarely finishes anything, already dreaming of the next story before the first one was even finished. The girl continues to draw and paint. She misses her best friend still.
The Two grow up. The boy still writes and dreams and the girl still draws and paints. They forget each other over time. Only occasional thoughts float through their head of one another.
Years pass. They date people, as young teenagers do. Not all of them were probably the best. One day the boy visits the town the girl lives in for the 4th of July. The boy runs into the girl. She remembers him long before he even registers who she is. They talk and trade numbers.
They talk, the girl is even cooler than the boy remembers. He develops a crush on her but is too afraid to act on it. They talk about hanging out but never do. The girl goes on to date some guy the boy goes on to date some girl. Years pass, they're still friends. It is the summer before their freshman year of High School. The girl has some new boyfriend. The boy vows to ask the girl out the next time she is single. This takes a bit longer than expected.
A year and seven months pass. The boy has since left his awkward stage for the most part. He still lives with his head in the clouds and writes but he is more social and grounded. The girl has grown up to be a lovely and talented artist. They boy has dated a few girls, and is currently dating one. When the girl and her boyfriend break up. They boy comforts the girl. A month later the boy and his girlfriend break up because of fighting and other things. A few weeks pass. The boy realizes his feelings for the girl and confesses them on a snow day. She does not reciprocate them. The boy works hard to change this. The girl has a birthday party coming up. The boy compiles the best gift he can using his skill and all the memories they share. The party comes, the boy is afraid of being to clingy so he works hard to keep his cool around the girl. She opens the gifts. He can tell by her reaction that the gift has worked. When it is time to say goodbye the girl's friend tells the boy to kiss her. He doesn't, cause he's a pussy, but they do hug. As they break away they hold hands for a moment before the boy leaves.
The girl texts him saying that she loved the gift and did reciprocate his feelings.
The boy and girl dream of traveling the world. They dream of the places they'd see and the people they'd meet and the stories they'd share.
This is the end of this story and the beginning of theirs as they travel off into the world together.

Yeah, it's sappy, but it is valentines day, so get over it.
Happy Valentines day, Yo
