Suffering the loss of his commander and his love, Kaidan Alenko starts a journal to keep himself sane. Everyday, he promised himself to write a new entry, to write down a single memory they shared together. The galaxy may have given up on her, but he hasn't. From Shepard's death to their first meeting on Horizon.

A/N: This is a side project from my main story. Therefore, the entries will be short and only one entry per chapter. I've been playing around with this idea for some time so I hope you guys enjoy it. Rated T for possible language in the future and references to their night together.

We've all been sitting here, waiting. Hoping for good news. The loss of the Normandy was devastating. The loss of our commander even more so. They retrieved Joker not too long ago, but he's not saying anything. What I wouldn't do to hear that she's alive. They told us the chances of her survival are slim. The Normandy was torn to shreds. But I refuse to believe them. I won't. Shepard faced a whole geth army head on, took down Saren, saved the Council. She can't be dead. The Alliance sent out a search party not too long ago. I hope to God they find her.
