Holden's pov

Finally i felt at peace with myself even if it took me long enough to let go of all the stereotypical nonsense in my life to realise that watching the storm.

She is the most beautiful person on this planet to me and I work my butt off to get to where i was even though, some people say sleep was for loser but right now. I just want to sleep a whole night being cuddled in bed with my sweet neemiss being the smartest, bravest and an irresistible force of nature girl who teach the world that it was good to show how you feel or stood up for what they believed in.

In life there can be some unpredictable and spontaneous moments where the most unplanned things or events turned out to be the most spectacularly precious, including something special to someone like me. Natalia Speilberg, she was one the unpredictable gift in my life which I planned to treasure for the rest of our lives.

The meaning of legacies to our little found family means ​​the long-lasting impact of particular events, actions that have taken place in the past, or of a person's life however, let's put a little spin to change all of it by saying legacy is making something into our own like an special events, actions or years of hard work had finally paid off to gain the victory trophy too.

Nothing matters more than her, not even the stanley cup, that i did manifesting winning all these years too.

"Man, I've never seen you so in love before!" exclaimed Grayson with a joyful smile.

Asher,Mason, Grayson and my cousin Flora were in the kitchen with me as she was teaching them how to make Ravioli when she was done making the pasta she soon began with filling the the filling into the ravioli of two different kind creamy chicken with tomatoes sauces and the other spinach and Ricotta cheese. I think Nataila would be too happy that we weren't going to spend too much money on takeout or eating out at the shake-shack because she worries about going bankrupt in the future.

If she was planning for global world domination, I would tell anyone but I would secretly join her side and we would quickly watch behind the scenes as the world slowly starts to burn or I would at least help her solve world hunger too. She would be unstoppable, untouchable and simply powerful my magnificent Black Swan conquering the world by storms

"It  feels like I'm on cloud nine and it feels good to be alive!" I said genuinely happy to Grayson with a smile of my own.

Flora laughed and Grayson looked up at her so I tried my best not to think too much about it as her eyes caught his eyes but I didn't want to think that something was going on between the two of them. My cousin and my best friend decided to ignore their little moment. In the meantime, the food gets placed on the dinner table being thankful that Wyatt keeps my mind off of it by asking some questions about love.

Asher and Mason give each other a look without saying anything else when they both decide to dig into their pasta as well as talk about hockey on the football tables including the words to do with what our pet mascot should be.

"How do you know that she is the right person for you?" Wyatt asked with a supportive smile of his own.

In All honesty, I wouldn't say that I am the love whispers or Cupid because most of the time I can't keep myself from falling in love with her. The signs were not clear to me until I had a sudden epiphany that she was the one for me and no one else could ever change my mind about that.

Nevertheless, I did get lucky to have such a remarkable and unstoppable girl like her in my life. Let me tell you for a fact that she has definitely humbled me in so many ways and I am grateful to have her standing by my side.

No, scientific research or  heavy numbers can every predict a some sort of code that we would end up together as she made me realize that not every single things in our lives was a game nowadays, we still currently pranking each other although, she doesn't know that i was going to get her own first place trophy to make up for ruining her chances of winning our grade eleventh highschool science fair including a teddy bear that wears a shirt which says Puck, I hate how we start but love you forever, genius.

"Do you think about her constantly, every single day and the only emotions that make you want her to be happy?"I answered Wyatt with my own set of questions.

Not caring how cocky i sound right now, but i always knew that i could be a better boyfriend than any of her exes like how i protected her from a crappy ex-boyfriend and I made his entire life a living hell. You know, just a little bit of revenge, got him to go juvie along with destroying his reputation which could jeopardize all of his future endeavors and careers.

I would rather our enemies burn than lose her because that day when i saw her at the bottom of the stairs tore my heart into pieces so anytimes she needs to go to a two story libraries I always carried her up or down the stairs in my arms other than that i had tried to convinced her to go to a one story building ones.
It was her friends and her who love the smells of books,  drinking warm coffee on a friday night and reading novels while listening to either  how the rains  on the windows or music playlist too.

Honestly, she almost gave me a heart attack last week as her shoes almost got stuck on the stairs of her housing building complex room on campus just watching her going up the stairs.
  
"Yes, I do," replied Grayson and Wyatt at the same time.

Last night, I heard from Wyatt that Jessasnym, Rochelle and her were talking when she got a piece of gum stuck on her shoes and basically called it her ex-boyfriend Tristan as I immediately thought inside my head was "atta girl." and "I want to kiss her right now." 

At this moment, I knew who Wyatt was talking about but not Grayson when he said  that he likes a girl and then  my cousin Flora decided to speak up.

"compliments to the chef who made this Ravioli pasta. It is so delicious. I love the flavors and the taste of this dish." Flora called me too overconfident or cocky one erm okay yet she was giving her little compliments because she was the one who made us this pasta.

"Is someone a little too confident or arrogant here, little cousin?" I asked Flora rhetorically.

"No, not when it is a fact more than a biased statement, cousin."said my cousin Flora as a matter of factly.

My favorite cousin Flora made me chuckle and I was so proud of her after what we had both been through. She used to be picked on by the other girls at high school for being too smart, loud and her ridiculous ex- boyfriend didn't show up to any of her debates especially when I know for a fact he was in Lacey Turner house or he was either doing some kind of shady business there. I know Flora didn't believe a single word that he said to her because he lied to her.

Nobody else knows the real details of how Lacey and Flora's ex-boyfriend had gotten into a car crash but she had sworn off dating any guys since she thinks they were a waste of her time. She doesn't even believe in love anymore either.

"Little dov- I mean little McClellan's food this is one of the best that i ever tasted, big H." Grayson defended Flora.

Tonight was the right day to bring up all of their teasing, light banter and slightest eye contact too.

My girl, Natalia, just sent me a picture of her in a dark purple dress.  As she texts what do you think and then i respond back with a text: i think i might need to take a cold bath.

My sweet nemesis: I know for a fact that I render you speechless  with how I look tonight but  I will take it as a compliment too.

Me: where are you going? Is there still space for me to come?

My sweet nemesis: nope, because you will ruin charlie big campaign night with your over-protective boyfriend caveman behavior. Warning all of the men off me by making them feel threatened by you.

Me: but wear my jacket so they know that you are mine.

I'm not an erratic caveman but I'm hella protecting my girl because I  just want you to be safe that is all.

My sweet nemesis: i understand but by the way, i'm not your until you put a ring on it!

Me: haha but your wish is my command my queen.

Natalia and I both texted each other to see you later. Now, I was scraping my plate into the bin and putting it into the dishwasher before thanking my cousin Flora for making us some food to eat tonight.

"See you guys later." i said to them, as in my cousin Flora and my three of my friends Wyatt, Mason and Grayson.

In a rush, i ran up the stairs and i would soon have a meeting with my coach as well as the Dean our university to discussed next year fundraiser or event to raise money for my new ideas of having a lift in the building including ten ways how to make this place feel safer next week monday after a early hockey practice  even though, he keep on talking about updating the cameras around campus. I already think people might be against the cameras because they feel like being watched or it is creepy to have them here.

A couple of persuasive techniques that I had learned from my cousin Flora on how to get them to agree to my ideas especially when my charms and good looks can only get me this far in order to help win people's minds over. I sat on my bed to get Flynn Dyers, an old friend of Grayson and I who was in town for next week to help me with coaching my junior league hockey team since it would be unfair on those little children if I canceled on them by the last minute.

"Hello, Finnie boy, I am wondering if you can take over my hockey session for the little leagues team this Monday? because I am too busy."I explained to Flynn.

"Hey, Holts. I will do it until you admit that I am a better looking guy than you are." Flynn replied back with a request of  wanting me  to say that he was a more good-looking guy than me.

This guy had more arrogance and overconfidence than me but yet my girl sometimes thinks that i was so full of myself especially when it comes to the territory of being a hockey player. I was smart and good-looking at the same time. What can I say ? other than my girl had bagged herself the greatest of all time aka me.

"You're just jealous that I got promoted to the best looking guy in junior high."I chuckled and said "can't you just put your pride after the poor young children  who are so eager to become the winning team too. Come on don't you remind what it to be introduced to our favorite sport hockey when we-"

Flynn interjected me talking with his laughter booming through the air which was contagious laughter until he finally agreed to do it.

"Yes, I do remember but by the way, I don't need a poster or anonymous vote which i am pretty sure that it was rigged by you." he sighed and said "yes, i will teach those little hellraisers how to become undefeatable at hockey."

Outside was pitch black in the darkness with the stars twinkling upon the night sky and the moon. I decided to end our conversation seeing that a yawn had just escaped out of my mouth from working so hard.

"As much as i would love to stay up and chat to you but, i have an important day ahead of me." I stopped for a second to pull off my shirt and only sleep in my sweatpants before I resumed our talking. "I'm going to sleep. Good night and you should get some rest too."

Luckily, my whistle was still in my room and not at the ice rink,for only two reasons: one: i don;t want him to use my whistle and two; like coach Jesen always said you only deserve your own whistle when you have to work hard for it.

"Awe, you care about me!" Flynn feigns happiness and afterwards, he starts bursting out in laughter. "I'm only joking, man but good night too."

Slowly, I started drifting off to sleep on the phone to him knowing that he wasn't offended by it since he understood the pressure from hockey, working on the side and attending all of my lectures on time. The life of a busy university student who was doing a  finance degree and I don't know how Grayson parties too hard without feeling a handover too.
