This is set after Connie kisses Col on the cheek in 'Mines of the Minotaur'. Please rnr!

Connie hurriedly shut the gate and ran inside.

How did I get here?
I turned around and there you were.
Didn't think twice
Or rationalize,
But somehow I knew
That there was more than just chemistry,
I mean I knew you were kind of in to me,
But I figured it's too good to be true.

'What have I done?' she thought to herself as she collapsed against the doorframe and slid wearily to the floor, burying her head in her hands.

I said pinch me,
Where's the catch this time?
Can't find a single cloud in the sky.
Help me before I get used to this guy.

'Someone please tell me I did not just kiss Col' she whispered to herself. But it was no use- she could not undo her actions. Now Col knew how she felt, and she could not go back.

But a small part of her was glad that she'd finally got her feelings out in the open.

They say that good things take time;
But really great things happen
in a blink of an eye.

Connie couldn't quite believe that Col had come into her mind to rescue her- he'd braved Kullervo and forced her to drive him out. It had opened her eyes to her own feelings for her best friend.

Thought the chances to meet somebody like you
were a million to one.
I can't believe it;
You're one in a million.

'Thanks Col. You're one in a million.' She repeated the words that she had said, trying to decide how they would sound in Col's ears. How would he react? She'd run inside so quickly, she hadn't even seen his face.


All this time a was looking for love.
Trying to make things work
They weren't good enough till
I thought I'm through,
Said I'm done,
and stumbled into the arms of the one.

The person she loved had been standing right in front of her the whole time, and she hadn't even noticed.

You're making me laugh about the silliest stuff,
Say that I'm your diamond in the rough.
When I'm mad at you,
You come with your velvet touch.

Whenever they fell out, they'd always made up- Connie couldn't bare to stay mad at Col for long.


Can't believe that I'm so lucky.
I have never felt so happy
Every time I see that sparkle in your eyes.

She was so lucky to have a friend like Col. Whenever she was down, Col would cheer her up with a single smile- a smile that reached his dazzling eyes and sent her heart dancing.

They say that good things take time;
But really great things happen
in a blink of an eye.
Thought the chances to meet somebody like you
were a million to one.
I can't believe it;
You're one in a million.

And now he knew. Connie didn't know if she'd made the biggest mistake of her life, or the best thing she'd ever done.

I said pinch me
Where's the catch this time?
Can't find a single cloud in the sky.
Help me before I get used to this guy

Connie gingerly pulled back the living room curtain and peaked out- five minutes had passed and Col was still there, gazing at the house and touching his cheek where Connie had kissed him. Connie quickly let the curtain fall back into place as Col's eyes moved to the window and met hers.

But really great things happen
in a blink of an eye.
Thought the chances to meet somebody like you
were a million to one.
I can't believe it;

You're one in a million... one in a million.

She walked up to her room, blushing. When she was there, she risked another peek out her window.

I can't believe it;

He had gone.

You're one in a million.
