Gift for NEXT YEAR. Thoughts?

I'm thinking of having a little book made for my BF. Thoughts?

​

I was at college over a year before we met.

You didn’t even exist in my small world for the entirety of the first year…

But you made my second, and third, and fourth years of college oh so special.

I was alone. You know how good I am at isolating myself from other people. It takes a lot for me to make a friend.

The year you came, I started off the first semester by inviting everyone on our floor to my room for a game of Werewolf. You were invited, too. Knowing you now, I’m disappointed you didn’t come, but I think you were probably playing WOW. My plan didn’t catch me any friends. Only acquaintances. And it didn’t catch me you.

At first, I never even saw you. I worked in the lobby a lot at night and you were never there. Eventually though, you made your friends. You’re good at that. Very gregarious, you are.

Your group came to the lobby, and eventually, you came to me when you got bored. You would talk to me, and keep me company.

We talked for a long while before you asked me out. Even talked all winter break and through January.

I gave myself a buzz-cut over break, and you lied and told me it looked good.

We started hanging out in my room after our first date in February. Most of the time we were watching movies. I couldn’t help but to think you were more interesting than “Batteries Not Included”.

We had a lot of fun that night. I don’t think either of us were eve paying much attention to the movie. We started playing around, and we ended up on the carpet. And… you kissed me.

I’d be lying if I said it caught me by surprise. I expected it… but I didn’t respond.

That caught you by surprise. I felt bad that I didn’t reciprocate. As you know now, it was me, not you. You were, and are wonderful. I’m just very guarded.

I had never kissed a boy. Never for real. Never one that I liked like you.

It didn’t take long, and liked became loved. I kept it secret for a while. I loved you.

And eventually, eased into loving you. I learned to cuddle. I learned to kiss. I learned to love you.

I love everything about you.

I love when you sing along to your favorite tunes and I can tell how much they mean to you. I love when you ask me to be big spoon, and I love when you’re cuddled up behind me, too. I love when you share your world with me, even though I don’t get it. I love when we bond over the dumb things. I love that you can share your secrets, and I can share mine. I love that I can always count on you to be there for me, and I love to be there for you.

I’m yours. ~M
