Dear D, 
I will always worry about you. You're my best friend. You mean everything to me. As long as my heart's beating, there will always be care for you. What happened? It sounds pretty serious. I don't want you to keep it bottled up inside. That's not healthy. But I respect your boundaries, so whenever you're ready to talk, just know I'm here for you. 

                          
Spencer and I had a Day Date yesterday. He took me to the zoo. We ate our weight in popcorn and they have the best chicken fingers I've ever had (surprisingly). Spencer bought me a monkey plushie (that's his favorite animal) and I keep it in bed with me. I cuddle it whenever I miss him (which is all day, every day). 

                          
We're going to spend Halloween together. Spencer's taking me to a college party on campus. We're dressing up as Superman and Wonder Woman. It's like our little tradition now. I don't know if it's too soon to say this, but I want to spend the rest of my life with that boy. He makes me feel things I've never felt before. Safe. Validated. At peace. 

                          
I never want to give up that feeling. 

                          
Love, Dimitri
