Dear Derek,

I still can't believe we got the monthly award for synergy at work meeting today. We make a really good team, apparently. All I could think about as we were standing there and they were talking about us was when we first met. And to think I chewed you out when I first met you! Come to think of it, I was kind of a jerk to you when we first met. I can't exactly recall the reason why.

Maybe it was because I got a scruffy little boy instead of the wise old Dr. Hoffman look-alike I had in my head as my coworker. Or perhaps it was because I thought you weren't looking at me right. I get kind of sensitive at that, probably because I seem to get it more often than I like.

Thankfully those first impressions have changed. I've tried not to be too harsh in judging people based on their first impressions now. After all, the person I thought was a geeky nerd ended up being my geeky nerd boyfriend.

Love,

Angie


Dear Angie,

Well, I guess we've known each other for a while, so I can say it. I thought you were really cute when I first met you. I expected someone about Mary Fulton's age and experience, and I got this blond chick. Not sure what look you were describing, but I'm pretty sure I was gaping at you. Heh…sorry about that.

I realized today was the day I got my med school acceptance a long time ago. That was a day to remember, because I won $25 as a result of a bet with Tyler to see who would get theirs first. I ended up buying his little sister a gift with the money, though, so it was all good.

I should give him a call sometimes. I haven't actually talked to him for ages. But right after talking to you, of course.

Love,

Derek

PS: Will you blow up on me if I give you "THE LOOK" again? I mean, now that we're together it is basically my job…
