Chocolate Fish

The two of them looked into each other's eyes across two beer kegs and an empty chocolate fountain.

The stare lasted four seconds.

In that time one of them was sure that they'd just found their soulmate, the other thought that it might be a fun night.

They circled the party for a bit before they met over the host's fish tank.

They both knew it was serious when they bought a pet fish together ten months later.

They both grew to resent the other.

The relationship lasted four years.

A drunken argument over chocolate is what broke them up.
