"Hey Mags? Remember our first date?" Alex looked at me inquisitively. "Oh, you mean the night I was so nervous that I made a damn idiot out of myself? oh yeah I remember" I say laughing softly as I walk out of our closet with a couple of my shirts. "At least you kind of knew what to expect. You know being an out and proud lesbian for a while." She said smiling at me teasingly. I looked at her putting on my grey button up shirt. "Yeah but hell I couldn't have been more unprepared in my life that night even if I wanted to be because I don't know what it was, something about it being my first date with you made my head act like I never been on a date with a woman before. "I said buttoning my shirt. I can't help but smile when I notice Alex with a light blushing on her face "really Maggie?" I walk over to her and cup her beautiful face in my hands "yeah because I knew that something inside of me was saying this girl is special Sawyer don't let her get away" I smile as Alex's blush deepens causing her face to become redder and I know she is struck speechless at what I had just confessed to her.
I can't help but smile at my girlfriend now as red as a strawberry "What the matter Danvers cat got your tongue?" I chuckle softly I can't help but find it adorable when she finally does open her mouth Alex's stutters "what? No…of course not Sawyer." I lean in and kiss her lips gently pulling her closer I feel her arms wrap around my neck and my hands around her slim yet toned waist that is hidden by her blue dress that she wore the night I first fell in love with her. I saw her in that dress for the first time and I just knew I wanted to be around her all the time, honestly, I just used all those pool games at the bar just to be able to keep seeing her and got put on certain cases that I knew she would be handling to be near her as well. "I don't what force brought us together but I'm always going to be grateful it did because I never for one day want to imagine my life without you Alex Danvers." I could hear her breath catch in her throat "I love you more than anything in the world Maggie Sawyer." I smile bigger feeling my heart race in only the way that Alex could cause it to. "And I love you more than anything in the world Alex Danvers." I didn't care if the world came to a fucking end today or in the next thousand years as long as I had Alex in my life and in my arms when I fell asleep at night that was all I needed. A moment in my life for us to remember.
Moments that we live for now.
