Kylie, my love

Our Story

Roughly sometime late November (according to our first texts it was around November 30th,) a random girl named Kylie added me on snapchat. She had brown hair with these little blonde highlights in the front of her hair which looked like handlebars. She was seemingly a bit shy, really pretty, and seemed a bit closed off.

As time went on I started snapping her more and eventually with persuasion from Owen (a fraternity brother and friend,) eventually asked her out to which she agreed! We ended up going to Chilli's for dinner, during our outing we talked about ourselves, family, things we are into, and just whatever the conversation brought up. From everything she had said I learned that she really loved her family and cared about them a lot, especially her step sister Morgan!

Anyways, over the next few weeks I ended up learning a lot about her whenever her and I would hang out. We had a bunch of fun outings and times but my first early one was definitely at Owen's house when she came over to drink with Reese, Owen, & myself. We had a great time, got pizza, and she started asking about Harry Potter whenever we were on our walk back home.

Flashing forward, I introduced her to my friends like Kyra, Cole, Reese, Owen, Jack, & everyone else who was really around at the time. They all loved her and she started to come around to just hangout, drink, or whatever pretty often.

One day, December 10th 2022, Kylie and I ended up driving around pretty late/early (it was 5 in the morning) me and her ended up driving around doing a bunch of stupid stuff. As the "night" (it was technically the morning) went on, we ended up stopping at some other places and did a bunch of stupid stuff, like me taking a picture in a manor!
Finally to end that crazy night off, we got McDonald's, went our separate ways, then met up later that night to go over to Owen's!
December 12th, 2022, Kylie and I hungout, as the night went on we eventually ended up meeting again later at her room to hangout. I ended up getting to stay the night and watch Fast & Furious Tokyo Drift with her.

Moving on, after staying over a few more times, it was time for winter break.

During winter break, (December 17th, 2022) I ended up driving all the way to Plainfield to visit Kylie and go to one of her family's christmas parties. The party wasn't too bad and I got to meet a fair amount of people, after the party was I over I ended up going back to her mom's house.
At her mom's house we ended up in the basement watching a movie. The movie wasn't too bad, we cuddled, and eventually ended up having probably the craziest make out session, that was actually our first kiss, that I have ever experienced. It was super special and I don't think that I could ever forget it.

Eventually over break, I ended up driving all the way to Tennessee and during my drive I got to be on a phone call with her, without that call, I may have fallen asleep but I didn't!

As break went on, we discussed possibly meeting up to celebrate new years together. The plan was originally for me to come up, have fun, then stay over. However, our plans almost got foiled because her mom said that I couldn't stay at their house.

However, her dad came through and said that I could come up, and stay afterwards. We had a good time with her step sister Morgan and her friend Kate. We of course drank a ton, had our new year's kiss, and I eventually ended up giving her my christmas gift that I bought her. The gift was some of her favorite candy, a bear that smelled like chocolate, and a note asking her to be my girlfriend. She said no because of whatever reasons she had held at the time, but I got over and continued to enjoy my night. The next morning we ended up going to Denny's and getting breakfast. It was actually hilarious because everyone but me (Morgan, Kate, and Kylie) all ended up going to the bathroom, some of them more than once, to throw up. But we did eat our food, and then headed back to her dad's house before I ended up leaving.

After break ended, we of course hung out a ton, had our deep talks about life, personal stuff, us and just everything.
Time went on and some scarily major stuff happened but we got over it and came back full circle.

The whole disconnection was around January 20th, 2022, and we ended up reconnecting right around February 10th-ish. I of course sent flowers to her dorm because they offered a service where they would deliver fake flowers with a message to a dorm room if you paid, made the message, and them told them the room. Besides the fake flower, I also got her real flowers for valentine's day, because I did want to have one, and I knew that she talked about how she really never got a valentine's day gift/flowers very much if at all. She loved it, we reconnected and then were fine after that.

We started hanging out a lot more, I stayed over at her place, she stayed over at mine, and just ultimately got closer and closer. As time went on it seemed like we should have been a couple, but of course, still, we were not.

Flash forward to March and I invited her to come on spring break with me to Florida. She of course, agreed, and ended up coming with!
During spring break, we did a bunch of stuff, like going to the beach, and that first day that we went to beach, I made her walk off with me, and prepared my speech.
"In the last 6 months I've been through a lot of pain, joy, emptiness, fear, pride, hate, fun and so much more. However, if I could say one thing it's that about 3 months ago I found someone who truly started to make everything feel a little better. She was a pretty girl, one I though that someone like me could never really have, a shot in the dark to say the least. Anyways, I took my chances and it worked out quite well, we went on this cute little date to Chilli's and just chatted our heads off until we went home, time went on and we started hanging, she met my friends, I met her. One day we drove around until the sun came up, and it wasn't the only time, one day we went through a rough time, and it wasn't the only time. But even through these hard, happy, crazy, and stupid times I've come to realize one thing and it's solely just that I enjoy having her around, from how she makes e feel, to the person I am with her, to the experiences we share, the fun we have, the stupid little memories we make, the dorky little smile on her face, the feeling of her lips on mine, and just that right feeling I have whenever I hold her. She has this past that's insanely crazy, and she's done these things to me before but I hope she realizes that I don't see her as who she was, but who she is and will become. I think sometimes she doubts that she makes me happy but what she doesn't know is the amount that I talk about her, the nights I spend smiling at our pictures, the texts I read over and over, the thoughts I have of what crazy things we may end up doing, the times I just stop and smell her because it makes me feel happy unstressed and free, the hours I spend thinking of how to better myself for her, and the times I brag about her to so many people. It all just feels so right to me, I refused this thought that I'd ever feel like I wanted someone to call my own since I've been through hell and back when it comes to relationships before, but for some reason she just has to check off all of these boxes on my stupid requirements for someone that I'd even consider let alone date, she's beautiful from her flowing hair to her subtle smile, kind in the ways that she makes me feel that I can be open honest and just myself to her, honest when she makes a promise or tells me something that she's been through before, fun by her ways of doing crazy things with and being goofy with me, exciting in her ideas and *wink wink* crazy side, mature in the ways that she handles commodities and admits mistakes to the ways that she works to fix them, smart in her way of thinking about and executing things in everyday life, and just so special to me, in so so many ways. Now I know it sounds like I'm just saying all of this because it's what you wanna hear but I don't just tell people things for many reasons and I think that it's time that I do it for good, but if I could ask you on favour in return for all of the things that I've supposedly done and will do in the future, it's that you answer one question for me, will you, Kylie, be my girlfriend?"

The sunset, the stars, they were all aligned for it to happen. It was the best decision I ever made.

As we continued on with our vacation we got to go to Ft. Pickens, that was fun because I actually got her to walk around the fort with me. I even made her climb up onto parts you were not supposed to! We spent a lot of time at the beach there and just had a huge blast. At some point I took her to meet my grandma, she really liked my grandma and my grandma really liked her! My other favorite thing we did was probably going to graffiti bridge where she tried to spray paint but I showed her up and got to show off my secret set of skills to everyone!

Finally on March 17th we ended up traveling to New Orleans! The ride there was fun and entering the city was just amazing, glowing with lights, huge buildings, vibrant streets, really just everything you could imagine. That night we got into the city her, Reese, & I all went out while Isaiah and Owen stayed in. We all went out to Lucy's Retired Surfers Bar, it was awesome, we got some fun drinks, got tipsy then just enjoyed the environment and night! The next morning we all got up earlier and headed out to explore the city! We were forced to go to Cafe Du Monde, it was super cute and we took some of my most cherished photos that we have together. As we kept exploring we made it around to mostly every attraction, it was super cool, but even better than perfect because I got to be with her. Finally as the day passed up we ended heading back to the same bar from the night before, but this time with everyone. We all had some drinks, had fun, then decided to go off and explore the streets to experience the real night life of New Orleans. It was AWESOME, we saw so much weird, crazy, fun, awesome things and literally nothing could compare to the atmosphere there. We had a ton of fun, danced a bunch, and just had a really really good night, and it would have just been awesome if it wasn't for me getting to end my night with the only girl I could want to, her.

Finally we headed back home to do the usual deal with bs, do school, and just live life! Not too much happened besides my fraternity's St. Patty's party. We had a greaaaat time and she even ended up smacking a girl for talking about, talk about FUCKING SWEET. Life continued on, we hung out, lived our own lives, and really just did us, it was exactly what I wanted. Everyday with her was amazing and everyone she met loved her.

However, I made a bad decision and wanted time for myself, to recoop, do me, and just find myself. I didn't want to but I had to, looking back I wish I never would have but I am thankful it happened because it created a bond between us in some way.

Obviously it was rough for both of us but we both got over it all. We talked very rarely but when we did I just realized that I missed her and it hurt. Eventually around August, when school started back up, she started to come back around a little bit more. It wasn't much at all, literally like twice in 3 months but both of those times were everything that I wanted them to be. Finally, when I really wanted her to come back, December, she came back around. We started talking again, seeing each other more, and I was so happy. I was afraid that it wouldn't work but it didn't seem like it was going to slow down.

We spent a lot of time together before she left for break and it was everything to me, I felt happy, like I had a purpose, and I just knew I had to do something about it again. We worked a lot of different stuff out and put aside our differences because what we really wanted was each other. On December 30th she came down to visit before her and I were going to head out to Cole's house for a New Year's party. At this party we had fun drank, hung out, played games, and when it was about time I made my final decision, I was going to ask her out at EXACTLY 12am January 1st. When it came time, I did, she said yes, we kissed, it was exactly how I imagined it going.

Anyways, after that coming back moment, she came back with me then headed back home.

She came back January 8th, we hung out, she stayed over and we just had a really really good time. She stayed over a lot this week, and I really really really enjoyed it. January 20th I took her to my hometown with me and she got to see my family, my friend James, Jacob, Lindsey, and just everyone. It was a good time and she said that she enjoyed it!

We have kept hanging out, seeing each other, all of that and since then everything has been pretty much exactly how I could've wanted it to go.

I don't care about any of the bad things that happen with her.
Because I know.
I know that I will always only want her.
