A Love Story

It was the spring of 2007, my senior year of high school, when I met the love of my life.

We had seen each other around school and around town before but never said anything to each other. We laid eyes on each other at a gas station. The next day I got online to check my Myspace messages and there was a message from him. We exchanged messages for a while then ended up exchanging numbers. From that moment on we talked on the phone everyday. After a couple months of talking on the phone, summertime rolled around and we finally began to hang out everyday. The end of the summer came quick and we went to our separate colleges. I thought we would lose interest in one another but we did not. We continued to talk everyday. He would even come up to visit me! I began falling deeply for him.

Summertime came around again, but this summer could not be like the last because he had to go to basic training. So before he left, we had spent every single day together. When the day came that it was time for him to leave for eight weeks, I cried like a baby. That’s when I knew that there was truly something real between the two of us.

I did not have to wait long to receive a letter from him. We wrote each other everyday. I was the one he used his first phone call on. I only missed one call of his the whole eight weeks he was gone. I went to his graduation with his family.

When he got back home, we made it official. He made me his girlfriend. I was the happiest person ever!

And the rest is still unwritten...
