Thus spoke Serendipity





 There he was:

Why was it that these types of things always happened to him?

 

Looking into her eyes he noticed that usual horrible sinking feeling in his stomach.

 Except this time he liked it.

 

There was something about her that lured him. He was a stupid fish and she was holding the hook. There wasn't even any bait on it!

 
Why yes there was… the bait were here eyes. Eyes –that burned through him like the mist from a distant fire.

 

He took a deep breath
…at least he tried to take a deep breath.

 

Crap!  He had forgotten how to breathe.

 

Stupid! You look like an idiot

 She gave a slight smirk, almost as if she could read his mind.

 


Could she read his mind!

 

He had just seen half of her smile. His heart beat rapidly. Growing faster and faster.

 

What goes one on the other side of the room?

 

There He Stood.

There she stood.

 

All was still and all was silent. And yet...

 


There she stood, as refreshing as a soft breeze on a summer day

and there he stood, mystified by the music.

 

The music from his dreams, perhaps?

 


He felt a sensation in his left foot. He took a step forward.
What had he done!?

 

Slowly looking back up, he realized she was still there.
She hadn't run.

 

Two more steps.

 

His legs felt heavy, yet he was now two steps closer.

 

…She was smiling now.

 

…so was he

 Eternity lived within the the fleeting moment
