When I was 12 I saw him playing football. He had a beautiful smile. I had butterflies in my stomach when I looked at him. He was 17. When I turned 15 he saw me. He said he stopped in his tracks.  He was 20. When I graduated high school we hung out together on the block with everyone else. We were in love. He joined the army and went away. 23 years later, we saw each other across the same park we used to hang out at. We knew we still loved each other...We never stopped... just paused. We have been married now for 13 years. He still has that beautiful smile. I still get those butterflies.
