Dear Future Girlfriend,

Dear Future Girlfriend,

I only ask one thing of you; just... take care of him, okay? You have the one person who means the world to me, and even though it hurts so much to let him go, I guess when you love someone, well.. you just want them to be happy, right? It took me a long time to realize that, it took me a long time to let him go. I hope you can make him happy, happier than I have ever made him.

When he's happy, his eyes sparkle.. but then when he's sad.. they cloud over ever so slightly. His laugh is loud, and when he's nervous, he laughs even louder than you could ever imagine. He gives you these butterflies that just never seem to go away, no matter how hard you try focus.

He loves to sing, and he loves football; never try to stop him doing either of these things, please don't change him. He loves to eat meat, in fact... he loves to eat anything, and everything in sight.

He's shy at times, but when he comes out of his shell, it's worth the wait. He'll always do his best to make you smile, even when you don't really feel like it and he always manages to make you smile in the end.

He'll goof around a lot, because even though we're seventeen, he still loves to mess around sometimes. He'll have random moments that will never fail to make you laugh, and will guarantee that you fall even more in love with him than you were before, even though it seems impossible.

He's the type of boy that you can't get out of your head, so I may as well tell you that right now that there is no point in even trying. He'll keep you up at night, and he will be the first thing on your mind when you wake up. You will think about him day and night, you could be shopping and see something he'll like, or you could even just be sitting at home and something will pop into your head. Whatever it is, whenever it is... it'll happen.

He's amazingly sweet, nobody else can even compare. And one day you will find yourself on the phone to him until three in the morning, and you will fall asleep to the sound of his voice, and he will fall asleep to the sound of your steady breaths as you sleep.

His eyes are beautiful, I often find myself just looking into them, seeing so much... you can tell exactly what he is thinking, and how he is feeling just by looking into those eyes. If he looks away from you, make sure you ask what is wrong because even though he will never ask for help, if you ask him what's wrong.. he will open up and you'll find yourself doing the same.

His favourite colour is green. And he has his own smell, and after a while you will get to know it, too. He'll walk up behind you and you'll know it's him without him even speaking, or without having to turn around.

His family are the most amazing people you can ever meet, they will welcome you with open arms and treat you like you're part of their wonderful family. His mom loves him so much, and she is so sweet and funny. His step-dad is quiet at times, but if you get him talking about football or cars, he'll open up. And then his son, Finn's step-brother.. and my best friend, Kurt, he is possibly the most... sweetest, kindest, amazing person you can ever meet.

He gets scared easily, and when he's scared, he runs but he always, always, always comes back, no matter what. I remember this one time, he panicked because it looked like he was proposing to me. I can never forget that look on his face, it was... a picture perfect moment.

He's terrible at lying, but he rarely does. He'll make you smile when he does... he's so loyal and amazing, I can only hope you will grow to love him half as much as I do.

He'll hold you when you're upset and he will kiss away your tears, and you'll feel like there's nothing in this world that could ever hurt you because that's what he does, he makes you feel so safe. He'll wrap his arms around you, and you will feel so protected and so loved.

Just please, if I can ask one more thing of you – love him with all your heart. Love him with everything you have got, kiss away his tears, hold him when he's upset, tell him you love him as often as you can. Because even though he'll probably love you back, you never know when the world will come crashing down and things just end. Just promise me that you will forever keep the memory of being with him close to your heart, never hate him. Just hold those memories close, as I am.

Love,

His past girlfriend.
