The Football Player and The Cheerleader

Once upon a time there was a Football Player.  He was a giant!  He was strong and determined, yet kind and gentle.

And then there was a Cheerleader.  She was beautiful and smart.  Caring and trusting.

The Football Player lived an extraordinary life, hobnobbing with professional athletes and rockstars before he finally settled into a life in business.

The Cheerleader travelled a more traditional path, choosing to raise a beautiful family instead.

Although the Football player was a Giant, and the Cheerleader was tiny, they had more in common than they ever would have known.

While The Football Player had lead an exciting life, and The Cheerleader's family provided her more love than any one person would ever need - eternal happiness had eluded them both.
 
This is not to suggest that either The Football Player or The Cheerleader were unhappy, simply that they were unfulfilled.
 
The Football player had been married twice - and had tried desperately to make his marriages work.  The first couldn't survive the ocean that separated them.  The second didn't survive her extra-marital affair.

The Cheerleader had also been married twice - and she too worked tirelessly in vain to honour her vows.  But her first husband was a drunk, and her second husband was a liar.

Both The Football Player and The Cheerleader became champions of lost causes, working diligently to rescue and fix the hopeless lovers losers who had crossed their paths.

It was frustrating, and painful for their friends and families to watch them continually spiral into an abyss of despair.

That is until the day hope arrived at their doorsteps in the form of a man.

This man, some may even say a hero, was ready to rescue these two hapless souls.  He was ready redirect their life's journey, and put it on a path to redemption.

Tonight, The Football Player and The Cheerleader will meet for the first time.  Tonight, a fresh new seed of love will be planted. 

Over the coming week's, this seed will grow roots, and a new love will bloom.  This love will be stronger and more beautiful than either of them have ever experienced or could have imagined.

Starting tonight, The Football Player and The Cheerleader will experience love as it should be - exciting and wonderful, beautiful and breathtaking.  It will be a fairy tale love.

They will live Happily Ever After.
