Then while we had to wait for our table, while the kiss came alone. It was love a first site, never felt the way did never felt this love. Matt never felt it either. So we both order are favorites soup which the zuppa soup and he got his lasagna and I got my chicken Alfredo. We were both so nervous and we didn’t really even eat. We were holding hands and talking and glazing in each other’s eyes. Again it was love at first sight I can’t imagine being with somebody different. He just makes me feel so amazing, and I just make him feel the same way. Then the rest of the night we decided that we were gonna go watch a movie. The most scariest movie ever I was hiding the whole entire time and it to his arms. It was the cutest thing ever. He was laughing at me and thinking that it’s not that bad you’ll be OK. Just watch the movie. I said no, thank you I don’t like clowns and I don’t like or a bloody things. I rather to snuggle and hide into your arms. He said that’s OK that’s fine.


Tell me how to say goodbye to then then we had to say goodbye to each other. And I asked him will we see each other again he said absolutely I can’t stand not being around you. I’m like I can’t spend moments away from you either. So from that day and we were inseparable.


He called me. I called him he text me I text him. We talked on the phone for hours and hours. It was the most amazing thing ever. Again I never felt like this before in my life I don’t want it to end. So then on December 25 he put on a song will you marry me and I didn’t really know where he was going at first. And then he kept repeating it would you marry me and I said oh my god you’re proposing he said yes would you marry me and I said absolutely of course I will. I love you so much. I started crying.


Then I got a ring for him and I asked him would you marry me he said, of course, I’ve never had a someone buy me a ring. I never wore one before too. I’m so glad I could be the first person to ever buy everything and you wear the ring. And from that day and we both never taken off I rings. It was love at first sight.


Every time I see him, my brother just stops. I feel like it’s just the two of us, when we kiss I see fire Rex when he snuggles me I have to get the tingles in my body. It’s also amazing. He is an amazing person we have been through so much together I have been his rock he has been my rock. I have been with him through thick and thin and we were three each other to make sure that we can make each other stronger each day we go by.
