Chapter Eighteen: They’ll Do Just About Anything If You Feed Them Enough

Two Months Later

An unpopular opinion if I’ve ever heard one is that things happen for a reason. Whenever someone like me, for example, would use that clichéd phrase, they’d get booed and told to stop sitting on their butts and do something about whatever’s causing them to use the sorry excuse for a saying in the first place. The naysayers, I suppose, believe that things don’t just happen for a reason, and if you accept that without doing anything about it, then you’re the one at fault, not destiny. If the thing that’s happened is a setback in any way, you’re not just supposed to accept the cards you’ve been dealt, you’re supposed to fight back. If what’s happened is positive, then you do not attribute it to some mystical power, you believe you deserve the good that comes your way.

Things happen for a reason and I side with the believers and the non-believers. If times are tough, if I’ve gone through an experience that is challenging and threatens to break my resolve, my answer to it won’t be to say that the universe has it out for me or that I’m the sacrificial goat for the greater good. No, you bet I’ll fight. And when the good comes my way, I’ll be the first to say that I’ve worked hard to achieve whatever it is that I get. So, some may call me a non-believer.

His.

And I can’t fathom what I did to deserve someone like Cole Grayson Stone. For a girl who has spent so much time wishing the people in her life could just love her back the way she loves them, it’s absolutely mind-boggling that I have a man in my life whose devotion to me threatens to constantly split my heart right open, just because of how powerful it is. We’re young, nineteen soon to turn twenty, and people will tell us that there’s more to life than finding the great love of your life in high school. Most people who don’t know us are skeptical, they don’t think we’ll make it past college, because rarely do high school relationships survive the next four years. In college you grow up, you figure out who you want to be for the rest of your life. Four years of freedom, of experiencing life in a completely different way, a series of firsts you’ve never had before.

It’s supposed to change a person, it’s supposed to change who you are and what you want from life. The person you see yourself being with at age eighteen, graduating high school with, might not
