Abby
My dreams have come true in so many ways the past few years. From having a stable relationship to pursuing my major. So many great things have happened and I can't even begin to explain how happy I am in this moment.
Johnny just got on his knee to propose and I about lost it. I couldn't believe this was happening right now. He decided to do it on the balcony of our apartment. He remembered that I wanted it to be private.
Johnny has been such an amazing partner that I can't even imagine my life with anyone else. He has met my standards and has put an effort in every single day. We both have.
Today is when we get to say with certainty that it will be like that forever.
I've pictured this day many different ways throughout the years. For a while I didn't even picture myself getting married because my self image was so bad that I didn't think anyone would want me. That mentality slowly dissolved as I grew up and realized I was wrong. I wasn't the problem, I was just horrible at picking the people I surrounded myself with.
It's funny to think that this all started because I needed a favor from a guy I never liked. It all started because I was scared of confronting my demons. I wouldn't change a thing though.
Johnny and I are laying in bed staring at the ceiling as we are going over the events of today. So many big milestones have been reached for us.
"Abby" Johnny breaks the silence. I turn to look at him and smile
"Yeah?"
"I have something else for you."
"Johnny! I don't need anything else!"
He got up from his lying position and reached a hand into his nightside table. "It's not much" he shows me a little box that contains a necklace in it. "I don't know if you knew, but my favorite flowers are sun flowers. They're the prettiest flower in my opinion and they grow because of the sun." I wonder if he knows that all flowers grow from the sun. "I'm sure you already knew that but my point is they are my favorite, sooo I got this small necklace with a sunflower attached to it. I want you to be able to look at something and remember that you are my sunflower. The most beautiful sunflower I have laid eyes on. You're my favorite." He looked a little shy all of a sudden.
"Johnny, I love it. Thank you." I lean forward and kiss him before he puts the necklace around my neck and clips it. I put my fingers up to hold it and smile up at him.
I never would have thought he would be such a loving a caring person. He puts so much thought into everything he does for me. He makes sure everything I worry about it put at ease.
I don't know where I would be without someone who silences the anxiety.
"I have to tell people."
Johnny laughs and says " can't that wait till we see them in person?"
"They won't want me to wait!" I grabbed my phone and went immediately to my mother's contact. I clicked on the FaceTime button and let it ring. When she answered I put my hand up to the camera to show her the beautiful ring Johnny picked out.
"Oh my gosh!!!!! Abby!!!!!" She was so excited for me and couldn't stop smiling. She called Jacob into the room with her and had him look at the screen.
"That's awesome Abs, I'm happy for you."
After an hour long call with my mom and brother I did the same thing to my friends. Everyone was so happy for us and I could feel the love from everyone.
Senior me would not believe where I am right now.
If only she knew.
