This story takes place in July of 2016. It’s important to the end of the story.
I’m not sure when my wife and I fell in love. There are a foggy few months between our first hookup and when we started living together. Everything just went so fast. I’m guessing we still just in lust at this point.
Before I met Eve I was kind of out of control. I made plenty of mistakes. One which lead to being on probation. Part of my plea deal was that I needed to attend regular meetings of Alcoholics Anonymous. It was fine. AA meetings can be fun. Only problem was sometimes I was just too busy to always get there.
Eve knew all about this. She didn’t care. She had her own troubles with the law. We were very honest with each other when we first met. So, the idea that I couldn’t hang out certain nights because I had to go to a meeting wasn’t a surprise. She understood that I wasn’t blowing her off or out with someone else.
