Dec. 2
Dear Corinne,
Collin and I have been going out a lot. It's so relaxing to be around him. Yesterday I went over to his place and we built a snowman with kiwi eyes and a carrot nose. I stepped back to admire it, and Collin snuck up on me, scooping me into his arms and throwing me over his shoulder.
Me: Hey!
Collin: Come on, Little Girl. It's time for Hot Chocolate.
Then he swung me down, and I thought he was going to drop me, but he caught me with his other arm and set me on the ground gently, like a child. He reached his hand down to help me up, and when I was standing, before I had a chance to register what was going on, his lips met mine. His breath warmed my cheeks and he held me close, and I was safe.
Collin: You're beautiful. So completely, freaking beautiful.
And I know that he meant it.
Love,
Leigh
