A Collection of Letters for My One & Only

XIII

Dear best friend, partner, companion;

A few weeks before we started dating, I visited you for a day and spent that day only with you. Everyone and reality was a second thought to me. The only things that mattered to me that day was how happy I made you, your contagious laughter, and your beautiful smile.

We tried to talk together, to catch up, to get to know one another but almost every other word, every other innuendo, every 'that's what she said' joke, you ended up dying from laughter. You felt comfortable enough to laugh, smile, and lower your guard around me and I never wanted to stop trying to make you laugh or smile. Seeing you that relaxed and happy made me more happier than I have ever been.

A month after that day, you told me that you have never laughed like with anyone before; that only I have ever been able to do that. Knowing that I made you feel that kind of joy like never before, I felt beyond happy that I could be your comedian.

Then the day I spent with you, the week we started dating, we almost laughed as hard as we did that past day. But somehow, we were able to form a conversation that day and we grew closer. I got to know you more and I saw my future in you. I knew you were fun to be around but I never knew I could be that relaxed around someone before and so I started dating you, knowing that I made the best decision in all of my life.

You are the best decision I have made and I am one the most indecisive people alive.

~Forever yours, Avery Fawkes
