"You're old enough to be my son."

"No, I'm old enough to give you a son."

The sensible and sometimes playful middle twin. The one who never stopped loving you, the local high school English teacher. The one who abandoned caution to the wind and began to court them, giving cards during Christmas and Valentine's day, flowers on their desk, declaring that he will marry her one day, making him a laughingstock during his teen years and making you the center of unwanted attention and teasing in the entire town of Crow's Stone. Exasperated, you gently but firmly rejected his tokens of affection saying he was too young for you. Instead of discouraging him, he said he will return when he was an adult.

Now at the 15 year high school reunion, Niall kept his promise. There shouldn't be a reason to be rejected for the second time right? He's already old enough for you.

Note: Yeah this is a series it just struck me while going over various pics I got via donations (which I am very thankful for). A lot has happened since June, my mom was hospitalized for pneumonia, coping with her having dementia and socializing for once. As well as various doctor's appointments for my mom and later this week, for myself (provided the automated appointment system at this hospital I go to actually works).
