"I dreamt about you last night and I woke up excite and I wasn't able to sleep again. So I looked out of my room and pointed out constellations to myself which was pretty cool. I found Orion's belt. It reminded me of when we went camping with some friends and your bandmates. It was cool except for all the bugs. If I recall you called me your brightest star that night... I have never forgotten anything you've said to me. I cherish them in these moments where I have no clue as to whether you will ever speak to me again. I hope you do."1:18 PM:
"Everyone keeps asking for you and I have no idea what to tell them... I think I'm going to start saying we broke up. Although I'm hopeful you'll call before I leave on the thirteenth. I'll probably tell everyone you cheated on me or something. Maybe I'll say I knew Sean would have been better off single. I'm not sure. I really hope you call back before I start telling people we've broken up. I love you Sean."
