[ WP ] I feel like there is a lack of love on this subreddit . Write a Love Story !

How can you describe someone that changed your life forever. Changed the way you look at the world. Changed the way that you look at life. Changed the way you look at yourself. 
 
 The short answer is, you ca n't. But nevertheless, I will try to give it justice and tell it the best I can.

 I stood there, my eyes undressing the lady behind the counter. 
 
 *She's hot. * 
 
 Even under her work uniform, her curvaceous slim figure was easy to admire. My mind was set. I was going to get this girl in the sack. 
 
 Finally the old lady in front of me finished paying for her groceries and now it was my turn. Walking up to the counter, I let out a slight grin while placing my items on the counter. She saw my grin and gave a polite smile back, returning my eye contact. 
 
 *This is my chance. * 
 
 Straightening my posture, I uttered the only pick up line that works. 
 `` Hi. What's your name?'' 
 `` Sandy'' she replied. 
 
 *The game is on. * 
 
 `` Hi Sandy, my name is Erik and I think you're cute. So here's the situation. If we had met in a bar, I would seen you and would have come over and introduced myself, maybe bought you a drink too. We would have had a nice short conversation and then I would have been on my way. The next night, if you were there again, I would buy you another drink and we would end up a having a deeper more meaningful conversation about the meaning of life or love or something rather. I then would have asked you if we could organised a coffee date sometime soon. Nothing creepy or weird - mind you, just me, you, the cafe and two cups of decaff coffee. At first you would be hesitant, but I would win you over in the end. Finally agreeing to it, you would then give me your number, so that we could arrange the time & place more closer to the day.'' 
 
 I paused momentarily, while seeing if she would try stop me from continuing. She looked startled, trying to retain and process the info-dump that I had just told her, but she said nothing. 
 
 This was a good sign, so I continued. 
 
 `` Sadly, Sandy, we are not a bar and I only have until you finish scanning my groceries and then I'm gone. I wo n't be back for more groceries until two weeks from now and I'm not even guaranteed that you're going to be working on that very day either. Sooo, how about we skip the formalities and I just ask you plain out.'' 
 
 I took a breath, then dived, pretty confident I was n't going to crash and burn. 
 
 `` Sandy, would you like to have coffee with me this week?'' 
 
 I could see the mental discussion taking place in her mind, but honestly, against that flawless introduction and reasoning of mine, she never stood a chance. 
 
 Her hands, finished with my groceries, moved over to the pad of paper and pen that lay next to the pricing screen. Picking them up, she wrote down her number and ripping off the paper from the pad, handed it to me, a large smile emerging on her face. 
 
 `` I'll see you around then, Erik. Sooner, hopefully, rather than later.'' 
 
 Picking up my groceries in one hand and her number in the other, I walked out the store and could n't help smiling. 
 
 *That approach works every time. * 
 
 Walking to my car, I unlocked it and hopped inside, dumping my groceries in the boot. A few seconds later I was on the road, driving through town, headed towards home. Passing the gas station, I took my eyes off the road to look at the sign, straining to see if gas prices had once again risen. And that was when I saw her. 
 
 She was running along the pavement, past the gas station, earphones trailing down the sides of her face to the iPod strapped on her arm. As if on cue, she turned and looked at me. 
 
 I do n't know if time slowed down, I do n't know how long we maintained eye contact. All I know was that she was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen. Her long black wavy hair was blowing in the wind, her eyes dazzling and full of life. Her lips were red and moist and her nose small and cute. I could go on like this, detailing the beauty that I saw in every part of her body. 
 
 *She is perfect. * 
 
 However the moment ended unexpectedly as my car was violently smashed into the side by something. I found out later that while I was lost in the moment, my foot had remained on the accelerator, causing a car crash in the intersection up ahead. 
 
 But as I was sitting there in my totaled car, the corners of my vision starting to fade into darkness, all I could think about was'her'. 
 
 And then my world went black.
