"Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking outward together in the same direction." - Antoine de Saint-Exupery

Hello everyone, my name is Andrew Russell Jones. The lucky one =]. Have you ever met someone so amazing that you couldn't stop smiling? I did. The first time i ever saw her was in our English class our sophomore year of high school. I honestly can tell you that i thought she was the most beautiful thing in the world right then and there. She was so beautiful with her braces and her black Northface jacket, blue jeans, and clarks. I wanted to talk to her so bad and i had so many opportunities. I'd be the first person to class after break and she and her friend would come in right after and put their books on their desks and go back outside. I never knew what to say, and even if i did i doubt i would have said it. I had been sitting 3 seats back on the row beside her. I use to get up and turn the T.V. on everyday for channel one just to walk past her. Then about a month into the class the teacher was getting frustrated with some of the guys in the class talking so much so she made me move to the front of the row where i was 1 seat in front on the row beside her. I would turn around and talk to my new best friend behind me and honestly i would look at her every now and then. She was one of those girls that you see and you know you would give anything to be with but you knew it wasn't even worth trying. I finally got the chance to say something to her one day and i had thought about it for a while but as soon as my mouth opened i went blank. The words that came out were "nice jacket"....I was embarrassed but coincidentally I myself had on a black northface so she took it as a joke. She laughed and we never spoke again after that.

It was the summer before my junior year and this beautiful girl added me on myspace. I didn't think twice about it. I didn't have a clue who she was. A few days went by and then i had a message from her. I opened it and when i did it started a new relationship. We were just friends for a while we'd text and call eachother constantly. She was at the beach for a week when i had decided that i wanted to be more than friends and i wasn't going to settle for anything less than to call her mine. She got home on a monday and i had asked her on a date that friday night. We were going to eat at chili's and to watch the new harry potter movie. I was so nervous, i didn't really understand it because id never felt that way before. I was also embarrassed because i had just gotten my learners permit so i had to wait a few months before i got my license. So she had to drive. My mom dropped me off at chili's....yeah. How embarrassing is that. Somehow the date managed to go perfect. Besides that after the movie my mother locked her keys in the car while it was running outside of chili's. Even though that embarrassing event happened, we dated for an entire month. I had never felt so strong about a girl. I never wanted to be just friends with her and i didn't know if i could handle it. I've been her friend for 4 years now, i was her boyfriend for 4 months and 23 days, and now i've been her fiance' for 23 days 19 hours 45 minutes and 32 seconds. I love her with all my heart and soul. I live, I breathe, and I would die for her. So I'm gonna end this book because right now she's sitting across the room from me staring wondering what i'm still typing...lol I wish everyone the happyness and luck that i have.
