So Happy!

Jason and I met on April 16th. I had been talking to his sister, Cassandra, who lived down the street from me, and she invited me over one night. Her boyfriend, Matt, and her brother, Jason were also there. We played Rock Band, which annoyed their father, who was trying to sleep. So, I invited them over to my apartment. We started watching a movie, but then Cassandra and Matt left for a while and said that they needed to talk. So, Jason and I were left alone. We ended up having a good chat! Actually, it's quite funny, because Jason fell over onto an air conditioner unit that was sitting in my hallway, and he couldn't get up. I assumed that he had had too much to drink, but he told me that he had a condition where his muscles freeze up sometimes. I helped him to his feet, blushing. After the three of them went home, Jason and I ended up talking on the phone until dawn.

I had a boyfriend at the time, so Jason and I became just good friends. But by August, I began to realize that my feelings for Jason were stronger than my feelings for my boyfriend, and that I was sure he was the right person for me. It was hard, but I followed my heart, and broke up with my boyfriend. It was the middle of the night, and I had to work the next day, so I would have to wait until after work to see Jason. I was very distracted at work! I taked to Jason on the phone at every break, and we talked about how excited we were about seeing each other that night. I had never been so excited in my life! Finally, work ended, and I took the bus downtown to Jason's apartment. It was raining hard outside, and I called him from the bus when I was getting close. As soon as I stepped off the bus, I felt someone pounce on me from the side. It was Jason, and he ran outside so he could hug me right as I got off the bus. We ran across the street, laughing and holding hands, to the grassy area outside of his apartment. I told him that I loved him, and we had our first kiss in the pouring rain. It was incredibly romantic.

And things have been great ever since. Now, we're living in a basement apartment because it's all we can afford, but it doesn't matter because we're so happy here together. We live with my cat, Luna, and we recently bought a chinchilla, Momo. He's really cute! Jason is in his first year of university, and I'm hoping to go into nursing in the fall. We can't wait until we get married and buy a house together! We both know that that's what we want. I'm so incredibly lucky.
