Hey, M!
Are you settling in alright? Cal and I would love to have you over for dinner some night soon. How does that sound?

Yes, I'm doing alright. And I would like that.
Wonderful. You should meet the guy I’m dating.
Anything in particular you want for dinner?

As of the fifteenth. It's a long, hilarious story that ended quite beautifully.
Ready for some fun irony? He's a Knight where he's from. A knight for a princess.

I'm sure I will, E. I love seeing you happy.
Okay. Umm..
So...how do you know?
That you've met your person....because...well I think maybe I have

With Ben, I...just knew after a bit. Tell me more though. You deserve to be happy, Harry.
Well, she's the first thing I think about when I wake up...and I want to spend all day with her. I'd rather sleep beside her than alone.
She's funny, she makes me want to try new things...to maybe..be better?
Does that make sense? I know I'm not usually one for this sort of thing...it's terrifying.

It makes total sense. Ben made me want to be better too. It really sounds like you could be falling for her, Harry.
[It's obvious he's nervous and unsure and he clears his throat a few times before he speaks again. Voice quiet and slightly uncertain.]
Is it always so terrifying?
Is it always so terrifying?
Yes. Honestly, I'm terrified all the time that Ben will realize he can do so much better. That I'm not the girl he wants me to be.
But...it's worth it for love.
But...it's worth it for love.
Is it though? Really?
Do we even deserve it?
Do we even deserve it?
You deserve to be happy, Harry. As much as anyone else does. We are not our parents.
I know, trust me. But if you like this girl then you should go for it.
