Dear Ella,

I have missed you so much. Between working and sleeping I barely have time to write you.

I know you have secrets and I have mine but don't worry. We will share soon.

I'm coming home and I can't wait to see you. I really, really, really, miss you. Honestly. I get to be myself around you. Can't wait to see you, hear you. I miss you.

Love, Daemon Princeps

I grab a piece of notebook paper out of the drawer and run upstairs. I walk straight to my desk. I sit down and start to write.

Dear Daemon,

I hear you have no middle name. Is that one of your secrets? You give yourself way too much credit. Who says I miss you? I certainly don't.

Come get me as soon as you get here. I really need an escape. We can share secrets, then, if you like. Besides, any secrets you have will be pried from your lips, by yours truly.

Can't wait to see you, but I don't miss you. You're just someone I can vent to. Don't get a big head, now.

Okay I lied. I miss you too much.

Love, Ella Nympharum Puer
