    Before the time travel, they were childhood sweethearts, and after the time travel, they're still childhood sweethearts, but it should take several more chapters for that to happen. If they do appear, then this story about growing up is incredibly good; it's written in great detail from childhood to adulthood, not abruptly, but covering almost every stage. Highly recommended, it's amazing! I've reread it countless times. [Sending hearts]

    Okay, this perfectly fits the "childhood sweethearts" dynamic. They've been together since birth; it's a "growing up" story, starting from their childhood. The first book is finished, and the second is still being serialized.
