the treasures in our hearts

I never wanted to let you go, but i never wanted to see you cry Ayden. i didn't want you to be crushed, like I was. this is my letter explaining our story. how i felt about everything, i just needed you to know how much i cared. how much you meant to me, how much heart ache i went through, what i had to deal with. this is the letter that contains my thoughts on our story, the story of how you became a treasure in my heart.

It was the middle of the semester of my junior year, and your senior. There was a party at our friend Matt's house, Ive seen you all the time because of the mutual friends we had in common. Ive always noticed you Ayden, every bit of you.

you had one similar class near mine, every time you walked by i would get nervous. I'm not sure if you ever noticed me, but you started talking to me, texting me, but that was it. only for small periods of times during the day. i had no idea how you got my number, you still haven't told m

when we finally met at the party i didn't expect you to be so shy, but your laughter made up for all of your perfect flaws. from your unique voice to the puffs your chest made every time you laughed at one of Dylan's stupid jokes. you looked over at me smiling but quickly turned around.

after that day i was sure in my head that i absolutely fell in love with your smile, when i saw it my heart melted like chocolate waiting in the sun as its smeared to the side unnoticed, that's how i felt about my love for you.

Matt became suspicious of our talks, i think he was jealous because i was taking you away. he was your bestfriend anyways and i tried really hard not to go in between you guys.

the first time you crushed my heart was when you told me you liked Savannah, she was beautiful, sporty, and just like any other blond. i don't think you realized how much i came to like talking to you.  but you started to talk to her and forgot about me. I brushed you off, i tried getting  you out of my head.

 a few days passed, i didn't answer your text, the only one you sent me was "yeah its cool, Marley" anyways. i didn't think you would care but you did, and i loved your smile even more.

you asked me what was wrong, i lied to you and said i was busy with testing, and you told me it didn't work out with Savannah. I instantly fell back for you, i was so stupid i didn't even realize i was just your rebound. we went on like this for months, soon we only had 30 more days of school and i was getting anxious that id never see you again, you were going to leave.

.i wanted things to happen i wanted you to talk to me the whole day, i wanted to hang out, i wanted to see you. it was the day our friends went to the beach that you started to notice me more then a friend.

i don't know how it happened but you ended up standing right in front of me looking at me like you never had before, it was amazing your smile was gleaming through those perfect lips, and your chocolate big brown eyes stared into mine making me paralyzed. i was going to ask what was wrong. but i was scared it would end.

our bodies lingered on to each other and with each movement we mimicked the waves as you pulled me in closer for the last song. the fabric on my dress rubbed against your own skin as you held my waist.

you laughed at how beautiful you thought i was, and then you pulled me closer your face was firing red through the reflection of the golden light that formed from  the wood and fire. your eyes were so dark and beautiful.

i pulled my hands through your hair and kissed you. i couldn't hold it in i needed you too long for me like Ive longed for you the past 6 months. when i went home that night you came to my house, came in my room and asked me out, you said you wanted to be together as soon as possible.

our relationship through summer was perfect, it was almost like a dream. every time we kissed, held hands, or touched, i loved you even more. when school finally came you decided to leave and go to a school far away. i cried for weeks knowing i wouldn't be comforted by your touch everyday.
