Tonight

Tonight was about so much more than simply taking Christi out for her birthday dinner and talking. It was about healing a past I didn't think needed healing. It was about finding out the true reasons for our actions that drove us apart, and remembering the reasons why we came back together.

Tonight was a night of perfection. Lauging, serious conversation, good food, and two women who have been through a lot in the ten years they were together.

Tonight, all things made sense. All things fit into a pattern. All things were made clear.

And the bonus? I didn't even realize they still needed to be cleared up.

It was her birthday, but I was the one that received a gift.
