Dear my closest friend

Their First Place

A few weeks ago John had started college at Arizona State university and Micah got a job at the local coffee shop and also started working little side jobs for her mom. Simple little tasks like taking her dogs for a walk and feeding them or just things she needed done but couldn't do because she was working and she knew her daughter needed money and wouldn't except it unless she did something. Micah paid for most of the rent which John did not like but it was the way it was for now. She was lonely in the day when he wasn't around but she got by and didn't let it get her down and the same went for John. He missed Micah terribly when he was in college and started writing her little poems and songs when he missed her that much and he would go see her at work when he was on lunch or didn't have a class. He would bring her flowers and little love notes. He loved seeing her smile and light up with joy.

Micah's POV
I was reading over one of the poems John had given to me. It made me smile when I needed it most. It made my heart pound and gave me butterflies in my stomach. He was the sweetest human their was. There was no arguing it. He was the one. He was my soulmate I was already dead sure of it. Would I ever say it out loud yet. No. But for now I knew he loved me and he tried his hardest to show it.
You have oceans in your eyes
The most beautiful oceans I have ever seen... Your voice is so sweet and soft and washes away my worries when you speak. Every day I smile because i know I get to come home to you. Freckles pepper your nose and cheeks and I will kiss every single one of them. I will kiss every single freckle on your body. I will never get tired of the feel of your lips against mine. I love you so. I love every inch of you. Every part of you is pure beauty. Never forget that darlin'. I love you so much. ~ Johno

I let out a soft happy sigh as I read over the words more than once until I heard a costumer clear their throat and I quickly went back to doing my job. I knew today was a long day of testing for John so he would not be in to see me at all, so I was gonna surprise him with a nice date in tonight for all the sweet things he had been doing for me.

I got home earlier than I expected so this would work even better in my favor it was only 5p.m. And I knew John wouldn't be home until 7 so I had plenty of time. I ordered us Chinese take out to be delivered and I placed candles around the coffee table in our small living room and lit them all. Our place was messy and small but it was our first place together and it was home. It was the best thing and I loved it.

John's POV
I walked thorough the door a little after 7 and I was nearly tackled by my beautiful girlfriend. My arms wrapped around her quickly and I lifted her up, spinning her around while I placed kisses to the side of her head. I set her down after a moment and lifted her face to mine and leaned down to kiss her soft lips. I would never get over how short she was, it was so cute. Everything about her was cute. She was only five feet tall and I was six foot two. We were an odd pair but we fit together flawlessly. "I have a surprise for you!" Her voice was so happy and excited and I just nodded along as she tugged me into the living room. She had gotten dinner for us which i said i would have gotten and she set out candles and everything . God she was perfect. I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. She was the one for me. I would wait a while to tell her that. It took me a year to say I love you out loud and I nearly had a panic attack while doing so.
The rest of the night was perfect we had a little date night in our living room watching movies together. She had fallen asleep in my arms by the second movie, I didn't blame her. She had been working every day since we got our place and that was nearly a month ago. She needed some rest, she was doing so much for us both and I felt guilty that I couldn't help out. I carried her to our small shared room and laid down on the bed with her still in my arms. I played with her long soft blonde hair and placed soft kisses to her forehead as she slept and I recited one of the poems that I had written to her. It was the one she always kept on her and read. After I recited it not once or twice but five times to her as she slept i slowly drifted off with the love of my life in my arms and I would awake with her there.
