In the midst of a battlefield, two figures stood, bloody and bruised in many places. Both were silent, both were void of tears, neither had any more to cry.
Suddenly, one fell, the other tried to catch her, but instead, fell with her. Neither spoke, only held eachother close.
"I love you..." Said the man in barely a whisper, but the woman did not respond. For she was far too injured to speak, soon, they would both die. For a while, neither spoke, but the same thoughts ran through their minds,
Was this supposed to be our happily ever after...?

A thousand or so years later, before a gray school building, two figures stood, emotionally bloody and bruised in many ways. Both were silent, both were void of tears, neither had any more to cry.
Suddenly, one spoke.
"I love you." This time, it was the girl. The boy smiled and took her hand.
"You, too." He sighed and gazed skyward. For a while, the girl did not speak, but the boy did.
"Was this supposed to be our happily ever after?" The girl said nothing, merely smiled and led him into the building, both did not speak, but the same thoughts ran through their minds,
Maybe this time, it really will be happily ever after...
