Unstuck (47 page)

“When I’m not with you I’m stuck. My life stops and the only way to go on is to be with you. You get me unstuck, Patrick.”

And that’s how I decided that my life was beginning. That day, when I decided to let my best friend know that I was in love with him was the day that everything began. Everything before that was just pure foreplay to what was about to come. Life with Patrick is everything and it doesn’t matter how many ups or downs come with it, it will always be much better than being without him. Life with Patrick is exactly that: a life, and I could finally live it to the fullest without being stuck waiting for the next big thing. I was finally unstuck and it meant that I was able to give him everything I was and would be. It meant that I was his and I was perfectly ok with that. Life had just begun.
