I knew right away that we were a good fit for each other. I don’t know if it was your warm kindness, or the way you so easily teased me, or the fact that you made me laugh so hard I almost choked….but I knew. Right away. And that first night you came over? At like 2am? You stayed for hours, cuddled up with one of my pillows (which now lives on your bed and not mine), talking and laughing and teasing and confiding. That night was amazing, incredible. And when you left, just before dawn, I watched you walk to your car from my bedroom window and I said aloud “You’re gonna make me fall in love with you, aren’t you?”

And you did.

…and so did I.
