All of the bullshit that has been holding me back, the jealousy, insecurities, mourning, fear—it just melted away. I want Molly, and nothing else matters. I’m in love with her, and I’ve waited too damn long at this point to waste another minute being petty and ridiculous. So yes, sometimes it took a good long while, and sometimes it was simply instinct in one second. Kind of like the way I fell in love with her at first sight.
