I lay on the bed in my huge room and gazed around. Periodically I checked for James just to make sure ha was still ok and if he was ready to talk.

As I gazed around my room my eyes came across a plush yellow duck. I smiled at it and remembered one similar from a long time ago.

“Hi. I don’t know you.. But I just had a strong urge to come talk to you..” He had said to me when we were only eleven. I smiled at him as a burst of pure light exploded in my head.
“Woo..” I said and he seemed to be having a similar experience because he just nodded.
What was that? I thought.
I have no idea but it was sweet! He answered in my head.
And that was how we discovered that for whatever reason we were connected and could hear each other in our minds. He asked me out right then and there in the carnival and won me a plush yellow duck to make ‘us’ official he had said.

I sighed remembering all the time we had spent together exploring our connection and how our love grew too.

I remember that day too!
