Summary
He’s been waiting for ten years.
Ten years.
But he finds himself thinking that every single second had been worth it when he catches her gaze, because as their eyes meet and the roll call room falls completely and utterly silent, something inside of him shifts. Something slides into place and it feels like he’s seeing the world in color for the first time in his life, and there’s a moment of realization as he sucks in a breath and watches her do the same.
Oh, he thinks.
There you are.
I’ve been waiting for you my whole life.

Summary
He pops his head under the trunk, fishes his duffel bag out. Kiara’s surprised when he grabs hers too, but then he’s dumping it unceremoniously on the ground.
She flips him off, leaning down to pick the bag up.
or
It takes one Christmas for her to find out he's actually an asshole. Two Christmases for her to realize he's still hot. Three Christmases for him to see that he actually got her all wrong.
or or
Kiara finds it really inconvenient that someone as shitty as JJ Maybank should look this good.

Summary
As she gets closer, Tim is immediately drawn to her wide brown eyes; they are broadcasting her emotional state for everyone to see — some combination of eager and excited and nervous. The polar opposite of the cool and guarded expression he is careful to keep on his own face.
Angela turns to look at him, clearly trying to gauge his reaction before she whacks him with her bouquet and hisses, “That is your soon-to-be wife, Tim, not your new boot, so maybe chill out with the death glare. You shouldn’t be trying to intimidate her.”
Tim ignores her; he begs to differ. This woman is supposed to be his wife. Chosen by supposed experts to be his life partner, his perfect other half. He is sure as hell going to be assessing whether she measures up to his standards. The fact that he already knows all of this is bullshit honestly just makes him that much more inclined to prove it.
When she reaches the end of the aisle, she stops in front of him and tilts her head to smile up at him in this sweet, hopeful way that he simultaneously finds incredibly endearing and incredibly irritating — like he holds her fate in his hands, and she is counting on him not to f*ck it up.
