Whether written centuries ago or just last year, literary couples show that love is timeless.
Let's Go on a Date!
Buttons sat on their only spinning chair in the office. It was wooden and the wheels were squeaky but it worked rather well and it hadn’t broke, so it sat in their workspace. Knobs, Sniper, and Buttons had started a repair business together, and there wasn’t much they couldn’t fix without each other. They were were more than happy that this was how they lived, working in their mini warehouse with their boyfriends.

Do You Believe in Magic?
“Do you believe in magic?” Alice asks me one day. We’re thirteen years old, technically teenagers now. So, while I do believe in magic—even though I know that it’s a true fact because my family are witches and we do magic every day—believing in magic is a childish thing, something girls my age don’t believe in anymore.

Regrets
I can sit here and think about my life. About the good things and the bad ones. About the moments I was hurting and I had no one to help me out. Or the moments I pushed away the people I feared to hurt. I can think about my regrets until I notice that I shouldn't even have regrets. Until you make me realize how negative I'm becoming. Until you talk me out of my misery.

Dream Lover
Years ago: We had met while stationed together. We were both sent for a short time to the same boat from our stations to lend a hand. She was the jaw-dropping type. Tall, blonde, gorgeous and didn't realize it. She could sing like Cher and had a really goofy side that I adored.

Unexpressed Feelings, Undeclared Words
"I like you a lot, more than words can say. I've been talking to you everyday in hopes that you'll stay. Your smile is lovely; It has a way of brightening my day. In person, you make me so nervous, I try to avoid looking you in the eye, maybe it's because I'm very shy. Even the slightest touch from you gives me a crazy feeling inside. You've made me fall for you in a short amount of time, but, I'm okay with it because you're an amazing guy."

Domesticity
It's a cool fall morning and the air is crisp enough to freeze the tip of your nose. It is the perfect morning, perhaps, for a jog; a nice temperature for an activity that gets your blood pumping. It is also the perfect kind of morning to, say, read a book and have a cup of coffee. Which is exactly what Felicity is doing on this cool fall morning.

Emily Hates Kindergarden
“Emmy, don’t forget your blanket sweetie!” The four year old girl turned around to obediently get her blanket from the car and closed the door behind her. She waited for her mother to get out of the car, walk to the passenger side and take her hand. Emily never crossed the parking lot without holding a grownup’s hand. That was one of the big ‘don’t dos.’
