Long time, no entry.
Well, let's get this show on the road, 'cause boy do I have a lot to tell you. Let's start it off with some basics:
Nothing new going on at school, really. [Actually, there is, but you'll here about that, later.] Nothing too interesting at the household, either. So, I guess we're done with the basics. )round of applause(
Now then, on to the main attraction. You all remember that girl I mentioned about two entries ago? Did I say her name? Well, her name's Rebecca, and she's that gir- no, she isn't that girl, she's the girl. The most amazing girl to have ever crossed paths with me. We've been dating for almost two months. I would give an exact, but I'm not entirely sure of it, and it's better to not give one, than to get it wrong, in this situation. Anyways, these past two months have been nothing, but wonderful. She is the reason I even make it through school anymore. Words can't be used to fit how she makes me feel. Never have I been able to say anything, other than wonderful, amazing, or fantastic. I've said sponduferous, but that's not a real word. [Thank you, Spell Check.] Man, I'm so irrelevant. Back to the topic. I don't think I could imagine life without her, since life with her is so great. That poem in the last entry, Luminescence? Yeah, I bet you know who that was for. She's gotten me to do many things I haven't done in a while, without even asking, like poetry, for instance. I feel so incredible, that I run out of ways to express it, so I end up doing something wired. She is the peanut to my butter, if that's not too cliche for you. The apple to my pie, the Pika to my chu. You gettin' this?

Most of you are probably wondering if I've even gotten her a gift. Well, the answer to that question is yes, I have. I didn't buy it, per say. It was a necklace, fashioned with three multishaded strings of brownish-tan, topped off with a pendant in the shape of a butterfly, oak colored wings, and antennae, and a jewel right in the center. I've had that necklace for a while. It was just sitting in my room. I was waiting to find someone perfect enough to earn something like that, since that necklace sorta meant a lot to me. It was just yesterday-ish, Friday, the fourth of December, that I gave it to her. I wanted it to be a surprise, so, when I saw her, I said: "I have a surprise for you." I then proceeded to instruct her to turn around and close her eyes. After a moment, fiddling around in my pocket to fetch it, I told her to lift her hair, since it's extremely long and beautiful. I thought it was pretty obvious at that point, but, hey, I got this far. I tried to get the necklace on her, but, dammit, my fingers are too big, and the hook is practically microscopic. Lucky, a passerby, who just so happened to be a friend of ours, stopped and helped me. She scolded me, playfully, saying: "You're the boyfriend, why can't you do this?" I didn't have an answer for that, since my nervous throat was dryer than an Easy Bake Oven at this point. Fiddling and fiddling, we finally managed to get it hooked. The friend walked away, and Rebecca turned to me, with a look I'll not soon forget. Her eyes were clouded with emotions, her hands, gripped around the butterfly pendant, shaking with the effort to hold back tears. I hugged her, and one of those tears escaped. When I noticed, I just kissed her head and told her it was okay if she wanted to cry. Instead, she placed her head on my chest, and stood, holding me in complete silence. She made a statement about my heart and how fast it was beating, and I then realized that I could hear it, too. It was because I was nervous, beyond belief. She looked up at me, and I looked into her eyes. A tear almost fell out of me, but before that happened, I leaned down, whispered "I love you, so much," and kissed her.

I could tell this was going to be something I'd remember for ages, because my right foot went numb not a minute after the kiss began. That is why I'm writing this down. You know, just in case I go senile at an early age and forget my own name.

I love her with every fiber of my being, and I'll never let her go. I'll be damned if anyone tries to take her from me.

'Til next time, Ace, OUT. <3
