One year later:

Jess and Nick were walking in the park talking when Nick noticed someone. "Jess, hey look it's Paul," he said and pointed. Jess looked in the direction he pointed.

"Oh yeah! Should we say hi?" she asked him. Nick shrugged.

"If you want," Nick replied with little care. Jess walked towards him and tapped him on the shoulder. He turned around.

"Jess!" He greeted. "How are you doing? And hey Nick," Paul said and waved. Nick nodded his head at him.

He walked towards Jess. "Genzlinger," he replied.

"I'm really good. I started teaching at a new school this past school year, and it's been great." she said, and smiled at Nick. "What about you, are you still at the school we were at together? And did you marry the girl I helped you propose to?" Jess inquired. Paul laughed.

"Yeah, we got married a few months ago," He said, and he held up his hand to show his ring. "And you! I see you've got some bling as well. Who's the lucky guy?"

"Actually, this one," Jess informed as she nudged Nick's arm. Nick put his arm around her shoulder and she bent her arm to hold his hand at her shoulder. Paul looked at them surprisingly.

"You don't say? See, I knew there was something between you guys. I guess I was just wrong about when it happened. When did you get together?" he asked.

"About a year ago," Nick informed. "We just realized it worked. It's something you can't really explain, you know? And then we got engaged just a couple weeks ago."

"Oh, congratulations!" Paul exclaimed. "And yeah, when you have that connection you just know. It's like nothing else was ever right before." Jess put her head on Nick's shoulder.

"Yeah," she said and mumbled.

"Alright, well I gotta scatter. It was nice running into you guys, and I hope you have a good wedding!" Paul said and started to walk away. He turned around a few feet later and exclaimed, "I called it!" Jess laughed and waved good-bye.

"He's nice," Jess pointed out to Nick as they continued walking across the parking, hand in hand.

"Yeah, he is. But he married asian you, and I get to marry you-you." Nick said. "Oops, was that racist?" He said and laughed.

"I think it was," Jess giggled. "But it's ok I get it."

"No, it's just that he was with you first and then chose asian you and I would just choose you to begin with because I love you." Nick stammered and mumbled very quickly.

"Nick, I get it, you don't have to explain," Jess laughed. She smiled at him and squeezed his hand. "We're gonna get married," she said.

"I know,"
