I lay in a clearing, staring up at the clouds. Two butterflies flew into my line of vision.
They swooped and flew, in and out, flying in circles and all sorts of patterns.
They looked...nice.
No.
They looked...happy.
I remember a time when I was like that...When I was happy.
My name is Leah Clearwater, and lately, I haven't been very happy.
Especially just after I had had my happiest time.
The butterflies kept playing. Suddenly, another butterfly swooped in and started playing with the black butterfly. This meant that the silver butterfly was left out.
Just like me. My cousin Emily had just swooped into my life, stole Sam and I was left out.
The butterfly drooped. It looked so so sad. I edged nearer. It looked so grumpy. When the other two came nearer,it pushed them away. After a couple of minutes, enter another butterfly. This one was gorgeous. It was a mix of so many colors.
The silver butterfly lifted it's head. A little bit of life entered it's features.
I smiled.
I had pushed away Sam and Emily...and everyone else, for that matter. I had been miserable, moody and grumpy and I yelled at anyone and everyone who invaded my personal space...And some who didn't, too.
And then he came.
Him. He changed my life. He saved me. He was my reason for living, and will be long after we pass away. I n what ever after life there is, he will always be there. Be my butterfly.
Because, without him, I would be nothing. I would have ebbed away away, pining after Sam, like the idiot I am, wouldn't see the need to keep going, wouldn't see the world for the beautiful thing it was, because I wouldn't be able to. I had always taken it for granted, no matter what. But with him, I can see that there are hidden things in life, that just about everybody everywhere, takes for granted.
Like butterflies and clouds and clearings in the wood.
Just before it left, Butterfly-me fluttered over to me and perched on my nose, as if to tell me that everything would work out just fine.
Then she flew over to butterfly-him and they spiraled upwards into the sky, as if they couldn't be happier.
Then, as if by magic, he came and helped me up.
"Ready to go get ready?"he asked.
"Ready as I'll ever be."
Ready for what, you ask?
Why my wedding, of course.
I,Leah Clearwater was getting married.
And not just to anyone, but married to him.
Maybe everyone does get a happy ending. I certainly did.
Go look for yours.
