~You've already won me over in spite of me

Don't be alarmed if I fall head over feetDon't be surprised if I love you for all that you areI couldn't help itIt's all your fault

Your love is thick and it swallowed me whole

You're so much braver than I gave you credit forThat's not lip service

You've already won me over in spite of me

And don't be alarmed if I fall head over feetAnd don't be surprised if I love you for all that you areI couldn't help itIt's all your fault

You are the bearer of unconditional things

You held your breath and the door for meThanks for your patience

You're the best listener that I've ever met

You're my best friendBest friend with benefitsWhat took me so long?

Every once in a while a life changing event will arrive with fanfare and excitement. In my experience, most turning points in our lives don't announce themselves. If anything they tend to creep up quietly when were least expecting them and force us to make a decision that isn't so easy.

*Chuck and Nate*

Chuck and Nate walked into the Empire after coming up from the gym.

"Any word from Jack or Andrew Tyler yet?" Nate asked

"Jack's not returning my calls and it's been a week." Chuck replied "And Andrew still hasn't been able to track down Elizabeth, my mother"

"So now that you know she's your mother for sure you think you, uh, want a relationship with her?"

"Haven't decided yet and since she's MIA, I don't have too"

"What about for Ella's sake. I mean that is her grandmother"

"Ella already has two grandmothers. She has Lily who spoils her to no end and Allison who may live in Hudson but loves Ella dearly. Does she need one who is gonna just bail"

"I guess that's good point. What does Liz have to say about that?"

"She says it's my decisions since it's my mother but she'll support me either way" Chuck said "So for now I'm gonna go down to the spa and catch a steam. Interested in joining?"

"I can't I have to get to work. Diana's finally making an appearance today"

Elizabeth walked into the kitchen to see Nate and Chuck.

"...the Spectator again"

"Morning Gentlemen" she replied.

"What are your plans for today?" Chuck asked her kissing her cheek.
