Yep, because I'm a princess
Hey Nick!
Sorry it's been soo long! I have seriously had so much going on since I last wrote to you! It has been such an eventful summer :) Things with Alex and I are going great. I've never had someone treat me so well before. I've never had someone love me so truly, deeply, passionately before. It's such an amazing feeling. I'm soo disgustingly happy I don't even know who I am anymore! And yet on the other hand I've never loved anyone so truly, deeply (is that even a word?!), passionately before either. I can't imagine my life without him, I'm pretty sure we were made for each other. In case you are unaware, we actually went to Clark together. We were both in orchestra and he was a year below me. Have high school a few years back we hung out together for a while. I had a thing for him at the time, but he started talking to one of my roommates. He disappeared again and then earlier this year appeared in my store. It was a Sunday, I was over it and looked like crap.. or at least I think I did. We talked and he said he would add me on facebook. Like the girl that I am, I waited for his friend request and much to my disappointment I never got it. I found him, but I wasn't going to add him because he said he would add me... I know I'm ridiculous. He actually came back in my store a couple Sunday's later and said that he couldn't find me... apparently he put a u instead of an a in my last name... soo fired. So, once he got my last name correct he added me. Me being the girl that I am tried to find any excuse to message him on facebook (since I didn't have his number). After some time of chatting on facebook he gave me his number so we could text instead of facebook chat. I told him we needed to do something outside of my store. So, we made plans for a Saturday. I didn't know what we were going to do. We finally decided on a movie. We met at La Cantera and he drove us everywhere, opened all my doors, and paid for everything. I'm not used to anyone opening my doors. I'm not used to people paying for things. I'm so independent that I generally do everything myself. It was an amazing day and we had a great time.
After I moved back in with Mom and Sweet I knew it would be a bit of a test. It was going to be hard with all the curfews and lack of a car. But he didn't mind. He would pick me up from the house or we'd meet at la cantera. I was always home on time and there were never any complaints about the drive to come get me or dropping me off. When I took my vacation we went to Rockport. It was fantastic. It was such a small town, we walked the downtown area and went into all the little shops. Stopped at the coffee shop. and of course spent some time at the beach. We stocked up on snacks and drinks and would watch the spurs games at night. It was a great little vacation. If work would call he wouldn't let me talk for too long because I was on vacation.
He is the only person ever to kick me out of my own store. He doesn't let me work off the clock when I'm with him. And here is one of the many reasons why I know I love him. Last year I opened at 11:30 thanksgiving night and totally rocked my sales! It was such an awesome experience that I wanted to do the same this year. Since black Friday last year I had planned to open my store again on black Friday, I wanted to beat my numbers from last year. But I'm going to give up my opening shift because I really want to be able to spend thanksgiving with Alex and his family (and of course Papa). There has never been anyone that I have willingly chosen over work. That store is my life and always has been. It's always been my first priority over everything, nothing has ever come between it. This doesn't mean that I care any less about work, it's still a big part of my life, it's still a passion of mine. I love my store and all the work I put into it. He makes me want to be a better person, I want to be the best person I can be for him.
So, things are going really well. I really wish you were here to meet him. He's such an amazing person, everyone loves him even Mom! Which I find the craziest, you know how Mom and sweet are :)
Soooo yeah... we're planning on getting married next year!!!! We're (hopefully) going to Disney World next summer with just our parents and siblings and getting married in Disney! :D I haven't gotten my ring yet and I don't when or how he's going to propose, but I know he's ordered it. I'm soo excited Nick. I really wish you were here for all of this. We're both really excited, our families are really excited. And I'm really just ready to start my life with him. I really do believe that we were made for each other. And although you can't make it in person, I know you'll be there in spirit. I could go on forever as to how amazing he is, how perfect we are for each other. We're that gross couple that sits on the same side of the booth. He's so affectionate with me, always holding my hand, hugging me, kissing me, telling me how beautiful I am, telling me I'm magnificent. I personally think he's crazy for thinking all of those things, but I love that he tells me those things on a daily basis. I love him and everything about him, in my eyes he is perfect. He says he doesn't know how I put up with him, but I think he's amazing. There is nothing that I'm 'putting up' with.
I could go on forever but I should probably start being semi productive. I've just been wanting to update you with everything going on with me. I'll keep you updated and let you know how our plans continue on. I love you Nick, and I hope you're proud of the person that I've become so far. I'll always remember that talk we had.
I love you,
always and forever
