Dearest,

Violet.

I don't know what to say.

I've been waiting

for you to say that

since the first letter

that I got from you,

but now that you're

actually ready

I don't think I am.

Violet,

I'm not good for you.

I know I'm not.

You may like me right now

but what if once you

actually have a

conversation with me

I'm not good enough?

You have these expectations

and I don't think

I can hold up to them.

I just want you

to remember who I

was before these letters.

Remember that

very first letter

you got from me.

I was an ass.

I still am,

to a lot of people.

But, I don't want

to be like that to you.

What if that's

the person I am?

What if I can't be

good for you?

You deserve someone

who's good to you.

And I don't want

to hurt you.

Again.

What if once you

meet me I say

all the wrong things?

I just don't know,

you make nervous

and weak,

and you make me

feel out of control.

I've never felt

like this before

about someone.

Violet,

I think I might love you.

-Ryder.
