I used to be afraid of a lot of things. I was afraid of dark rooms, and doctors offices, and starting conversations. I used to be afraid of death, and lying alone at night for the rest of my life. I was always scared that people didn't love me, or people didn't want to be around me. It all sounds elementary, I know. I'm a 18 year old kid, who was always looked at as strong, and I was too busy worrying about what people thought about me, or who loved me and who didn't. She changed that. Instead of being afraid of the dark, I welcomed it because she was next to me. I wasn't afraid of dying anymore, because I knew that I had lived a good life because she was in it. I knew I wouldn't lie alone at night, because she was always there next to me. I never had to wonder if she loved me, because I just knew that she did. With every kiss and hug and laugh I knew that she loved me, I knew she wanted me around. I miss her every second she isn't around, and from the second I say goodbye to her I miss her from that moment on. I love her,and we had so many adventures and memories that need to be told. This is our story.
