Rian’s POV

In that moment everything fell into place. It was one of the most beautiful feelings ever. That kiss was the turning point of our lives. It would become the start and the beginning of everything. Things had been set into motion and we were not sure how we could handle it.

I felt surprised and being kissed so suddenly but instinct took over and I kissed him back. We were both surprised at how perfectly everything fell together.
