He gave her his Everything without even trying or noticing it. It happened in small measures while watching her on stage, watching her smile. Then holding hands in the alleyways between tour buses. He felt a bigger piece of his Everything go the first time they debated the finer points of comic book plots but he thought nothing of it- it felt good. They stayed up late some nights, pretending they could see the stars from the rooftops of whichever city they were in. She named the invisible stars and he made up their mythology.
He only realized that she had his Everything when he decided to propose and it kept him awake until dawn thinking about it. She had his Everything, so why didn’t he feel empty? He felt like nothing was missing at all- he could just give forever and be happy doing it. The answer showed up around the time his alarm clock was going off- it wasn’t just him giving. She gave back to him, too, her laughter and insight and tactile art that thrilled him after he got over being just the slightest bit intimidated. He had her Everything- he knew it like all those stupid nature analogies about flowers and sun that didn’t begin to cover the feeling.
They gave each other Everything and that only let them give more- more new, old, known, unknown, irritating. They were Everything, run over and flattened by the same unexpected truck nicknamed Love.
So, he proposed and she married him.
