DEAR FUTURE HUSBAND [ ZONAH ]

letter twenty-four

november 26th, 2017

dear future husband,

happy three month anniversary!

yesterday, jonah took me to the ice rink since we both love to skate. there weren't many people, considering the fact that it was a sunday evening and there would be school in the morning.

we went to a family-owned italian restaurant earlier, and spent our time talking, laughing, and enjoying each other's presence.

when we finished, we leisurely walked hand-in-hand to the outdoor rink that was a few blocks away.

we ignored any stares we got from homophobic assholes.

after getting to the rink, we quickly realized it was full of middle schoolers that would probably have to go home soon.

we rented skates, and soon we were gliding across the ice, lost in our own little bubble, tuning the world out. we made each other laugh, sometimes almost falling over because of it.

jonah knew i had been stressed out because of school, and made it his personal mission to make me forget about it. during our whole date he kept me distracted, and there was never a dull moment with him.

when i'm around him, i feel a happiness i didn't know was actually possible.

every time we're together, i want to stop time and just live in the moment.

and when we're apart, i find myself thinking of him constantly. maybe that's why i'm so stressed out over school.

what is this feeling? i've never felt like this before.

however, i can't say i don't like it, because honestly, it feels pretty great.

after ice skating, the sky got dark and the stars made their appearance.

jonah and i walked home in silence. our first silent moment of the night.

as always, i wished i could stop time. being with him felt perfect, a way my life had never felt.

i took in the way his warm hand held mine, our fingers interlocked. the way the minimal light cast shadows on his face, making him seem dark and mysterious, when he was really the opposite. the way his beautiful eyes focussed on the shining stars above us.

i think i'm in love with you.
