One day...

     The worst part is when I to leave him. I hate that we stand outside by my car because we are having to say goodbye. It hurts so much to transition from goofing off together to telling each other how much we miss the other one. Saying goodbye to him, then getting in my car and driving away feels like breaking my heart and giving him a half to keep until I can see him again. It's all worth it to see him, and to anticipate seeing him again, but it hurts to say goodbye.
      We consistently talk about the future and what it holds if in God's will. One day, we will be married. We will say goodnight to each other every night, and then fall asleep with the other just a few feet away. We won't have to worry about saying goodbye because we'll know that we will see each other again in just a little while. I'll be able to proudly say "I am one of God's children and also the wife of (Insert Scruffy's real name here)." And he will be able to announce to our family and friends, "I asked (Insert my real name here) to marry me, and she said yes!" Also, the most important thing, I won't have to miss him. I'll be with him 'til death do us part.'
      I will marry him one day, if it's in the Lord's will. We plan to start off college and then move in together the day we get married. We will be married in the same church his parents were married in, and will spend our first night of marriage in our new home, but then spend the honeymoon at the beach for a few days. Our love will continue to grow every day as it does now.
      I am realistic and know we will not be happy with each other every minute of every day. All the romantic tendencies that he does now will probably fade away. There will be times that i won't want to even see him because we will be so angry at each other. We are going to fight about something stupid, argue about how to deal with the kids, and will need some solitary time. I do not have a false fantasy about us completely happy all the time with little floating hearts around our heads, but I do believe in our love and that we will work together toward our dreams in life and work though tough times with the help of our Father, God.

I wanna soak this in,
I got a new favorite memory of you
Here we go again
I've got a new favorite memory of you"
