AS I drive to work, singing along to the radio as usual, I’m barely able to contain my enthusiasm for this gorgeous Monday morning.

Exactly a week ago I had no idea what the universe (the regular one, not JU—although everything did happen at JU, so….) had in store for me. I had no idea that I’d spend my morning dealing with a murder and a staffing crisis, and that I’d meet a man who, just seven short days later, is already a pivotal part of my life.

Trav.

I always smiled tolerantly at those people who told me that when you meet “the one,” you just know. I’m still not convinced it’s true for everyone. And to be honest, I don’t think that just meeting “the one” is enough—sometimes it won’t work out even if they are “the one,” because life can be a real bitch. But after only a week with Trav in my life, I just know that he’s meant to be there, and that I’ll work damn hard to keep it that way.

Our second date was just as great as our first—in fact, I lost track of time and ended up being late for a meeting. Lucky for me Dimi is as amazing as he is and had the foresight—once he learned about our date from the gossip mill—to reschedule the meeting for half an hour later than originally planned, so I was only fifteen minutes late, not forty-five.

I really have to do something about finding another job for Dimi. He’s ready for more than just an assistant’s role, even if being assistant to a JU AD is a demanding and prestigious job.

Since that second date, I’ve seen Trav three times. We sneak in quick meals and coffee breaks, and of course we text pretty much all day long and talk on the phone at least once a day. Total adolescence, right?

This week has been a pretty good indicator of what a relationship between us would be like, though. I work (mostly) regular business hours. True, I rarely finish at five, but even if I did, Trav and I would only have a few snatched minutes together before he had to head off to work. His evenings are taken up, and he works on weekends too—which actually isn’t a problem for me, since I often find myself at Planet Joy or one of the resorts over the weekend.

The thing is, though, that even with such limited time available to us, we’ve managed to see and talk to each other more in five days than my previous boyfriend and I did in three weeks—and we were both working the same hours. What it comes down to is motivation, and when it comes to Trav, I have it in spades. He seems to feel the same. Even when I asked about the no-leading-roles thing and he fobbed me off with “let’s not talk about that now,” I got the impression that he’d tell me one day.

My head’s not in the sand. I know he leaves at the end of July.
