Dear Anna,
My mama said I should write to you so I am. My name is Yoh. I am ten. And I am very sorry but I can't marry you. I'm not going to marry nobody but Keitie Karawai. She's a really cute girl in my fifth grade class at school and we're going to get married. So bye.
Yoh Asakura

Dear Anna,
I wrote you a different letter but I'm not going to send it, 'cause in that other letter I said I wasn't going to marry nobody but Keitie Karawai. Well, today when I told her I liked her she spit on me and called me devil-boy. So I guess if you don't mind marrying a devil boy then I'll marry you.
Yoh Asakura
PS- I'm coming to visit you.
-----
Dear Anna,
I'm in Ozoresan now but I still haven't seen you. Something really funny happened. I was walking down the street when I bumped into a really cute girl, and she said "Get out of the way. Die." and slapped me. It was kind of rude, but she was really cute. I hope you're really cute too.
Yoh Asakura
-----
Dear Anna,
Oh. You were the cute girl.
Why are you so mad all the time? I haven't seen you smile one bit yet.
You'd be even cuter if you smiled.
Yoh Asakura
-----
Dear Anna,
Please don't be sad anymore. I don't want you to be sad. You scared me so much when you cried. I thought that oni was going to kill you. I was afraid, Anna. You're too young to be so mad at everyone all the time. That was what was going to kill you. Please don't be sad anymore. Since I'm going to marry you, I guess I'll take care of you. That will give you a reason not to be sad anymore.
Yoh Asakura
-----
Dear Anna,
Well...I haven't seen you in a long time. But it's nice to have you here for New Year's.
You're even cuter than you were the last time I saw you.
That was the ugliest dress I've ever seen, but you looked so cute. And only ten minutes ago I was sitting next to you, holding your hand. Your hand is so small, Anna. I'm barely older than you, but my hand swallowed yours up, like I was a giant or something. So now you're only one room away from me, but I can't go talk to you face to face.
But I think I like you.
Yoh Asakura

Dear Anna,
I'm writing this from my new house. I have one all to myself now, in Funbari Hill. I'm really lonely, so I hope you don't mind if I write you a lot of letters.
I wish you went to my new school. I'm scared to start there. What if I don't make any friends? What if I'm all by myself, like I was in Izumo? I really wish you were here. Then I wouldn't be so lonely.
Yoh Asakura
-----
Dear Anna,
I've finally made friends! Of course, one is dead, but that's beside the point. But I'm so happy to have friends.
Of course, I've always had you, but this is different. These are guy friends, and that's super important.
Yoh Asakura
-----
Dear Anna,
I'm sorry for sounding so rude in my last letter. I really didn't. I was just so excitied about having new friends, I really didn't think. Sorry.
Oh, I suppose I should tell you. I had to save some little kids from a fire, so I had to go in, and, well, I kind of got worn out. But it's okay, I'm resting now and I took some Tylenol, so I'm fine. But I think I'm going to sleep now.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
You're here. Finally.
I'm sorry I couldn't greet you properly. But a hurt shoulder does that to you. I could tell you were worried when you burst in like that, but it's okay. You don't have to be so scared. I'll be fine; I've been hurt worse.
I'm so glad you approve of Amidamaru and Manta. You were a little rough on them, Manta especially, but I know that's how you say you care. It's one of the things I like about you.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
Thanks for calling up Sha-wen. You really saved me. So I guess we're even now.
Yoh
PS: I could have done it on my own, just so you know...
-----
Dear Anna,
You cried.
Don't even try to lie. I saw you.
I have finally seen the Kyoyama cry.
You were adorable.
Just don't cry anymore, okay? I couldn't stand it.
Yoh
PS: I knew what I was doing. Really, I did.
PS#2: Okay, so maybe I didn't. So there.
-----
Dear Anna,
Thanks for my outfit. I'm sorry for ragging on it earlier. I know you worked really hard on it, and it's great. That's how you show your love, isn't it? You can't just say a simple "I love you;" you have to go and prick your fingers full of holes and make clothes for people. Honestly, I'm sure there's an easier way you could show affection.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
I know you really want me to be sleeping right now, but I can't. My ribs are throbbing so bad I can't fall asleep. I know I should wake you, but you're exhausted. I feel terrible about that, because I didn't even notice until Amidamaru brought it up. He wanted to know if you were feeling better, and I just sort of stared at him. Then I realized that you really weren't feeling good. You're exhausted from taking care of me. I'm so sorry, Anna. But you're sleeping now, even though I doubt you meant to. Your head's resting so close to my lap. You look like a kitty.
Heh, heh...your head is on my lap now.
I better stop writing or you'll wake up.
Can't have that.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
I feel so old now, after being in Yomi's cave. I knew it was going to be hard, but I had no idea it would be that hard. It was just so...so empty. I've never experienced anything so dark and lonely. I finally figured out that it was easier not to think, but when I started out I thought a lot. I thought about you. And our life together. What do you think it will be like when we're married? Will we stay the same, or will we be closer? Will there be any difference at all?
I think I'm getting too philosophical. Sorry.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
Thanks for the dinner you had ready for me when I came home. It was great. And I know how much you despise cooking.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I really am sorry.
I didn't mean to leave you all alone last night. I thought...well, actually, I didn't think. I just did my own thing. I didn't even think about you. I'm so sorry, Anna.
Then you came in last night, and you asked to sleep with me. That was when I realized that this was hard for you too. You're going to be all alone. You're just as frightened and lost as I am. Maybe more.
I didn't expect you to fall asleep so fast. You just cuddled in next to me and conked out, right then and there. Like a drowsy kitten or something.
I'm going to miss you a lot, Anna.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
Things are interesting here. It isn't boring...in fact, it's a bit life threatening, but really, I'd much rather be home.
That's all.
Yoh.
PS: I miss you.
-----
Dear Anna,
You're here. You're finally here. So I don't have to sit around and think about how much I miss you; I can just run up and talk to you any time I want.
I just don't know exactly what to say. It's kind of weird. Usually we can just talk to each other about almost anything, but now...now it's just enough to sit next to you. It's really comforting for me just to be near you.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
Well.
I have a brother.
And a rather scary one at that. I can't believe that someone like that is really my twin brother.
And why didn't you tell me that he came up and scared you like that?! No one touches you unless I say so. Don't worry. I won't let Hao hurt you.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
I don't know what to do anymore. Why did I even get into this? It's too much for me. I just want to go home and live with you and be happy. Let's just go home, you and me. I want to get away from it all- the fighting and the bleeding and the sorrow. I can't do it, Anna. I just can't.
But I made a promise, didn't I? To my family, and to my friends, and to you. And a promise is something I can't break. Especially to you.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
Please don't cry. I'm all right. I'm all right now. Hao is gone. He can't hurt anyone anymore. And you don't have to cry. I'm not dead. I promise I won't leave you alone.
I know you cried when I died...or whatever that was. I wish I could just hold you in my arms for hours and hours until you're happy again. I promise I won't leave you, Anna-chan. I won't. I love you.
Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
We're home again. It's nice to be back. It's quiet and peaceful and...and almost normal. I like that.
But I can't help thinking about Hao. Was I wrong to kill him? Could he have been saved? Or is he still alive somewhere?
I don't know. I hope I didn't make a horrible mistake.
But I do know one thing for sure...I love you.
Yoh.
(A/N: I really don't want to think up a reason for Hao being a nice living person...too tired...so just make one up on your own, k? All right, back to the story.)
-----
Dear Anna,
I'm an idiot. A first class idiot. Why didn't I ever see it before? Well, I saw it, it just didn't dawn on me.
I really do love you.
I've always tacked it on the end of my letters to you. I've always thought you were pretty. I just...took you and everything about you for granted.
And now...all of a sudden you're the only thing I can think about. I can't eat. I can't sleep. I just...just...
Anna, how could you do this to me?! All I can think about is you! But I know something for sure...
I love you!
Love, Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
I have officially decided to propose to you. I picked out the ring and everything. I know we're engaged already and everything, but I figured that every girl deserves a romantic proposal and an engagement ring.
And guess what?! I made Hao teach me how to play the guitar and I wrote you a song! I don't really know how Hao learned guitar, but still! I'm going to play my song for you soon.
I love you!
Love, Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
That really didn't go well.
But it had a good ending.
I'm glad you said yes.
Even though I didn't get to play my song for you.
Lots of love, Yoh
-----
Dear Anna,
Why did you have to go? I can't believe it. I make all this fuss about wanting to stay with you forever and you have to go off to Izumo. Oh, well. We'll be together soon. I don't know if I can take it though...
Love, your Yoh.

Dear Anna-chan,
I enjoyed our date. You're adorable. Let's have another one again soon.
But I've been thinking...I need to give you a nickname. Something cute and sweet that only I can call you.
No ideas are coming yet...
Love, your Yoh
-----
Dear Anna-chan,
You are Nan.
I'm sorry I'm not very creative, but you seem like a Nan.
Love, your Yoh
-----
Dear Nan-chan,
Our wedding's in just three days.
I'm so excited!
Love, your Yoh
-----
Dear Nan-chan,
Two days.
Love, your Yoh
-----
Dear Nan-chan,
Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow Tomorrow .
Tomorrow!
Love, your Yoh
-----
Dear Nan-chan,
This is the last letter I'm going to write to you. Right now I'm in my room, getting ready for our wedding ceremony. I can't wait. You're going to look so beautiful. Just so you know, I will probably tear up. I've waited for you for so long, Nan. Six years. You're worth it, though. You're absolutely worth it. I love you, Annabelle Rose Kyoyama. I'm going to do everything I can to protect you and take care of you. You'll never be alone again.
Love, love, love!! Yoh
PS: I can't wait for our kiss.

Author's Note: Yay! It's for REAL this time!! Thanks to Yohna, lain-shadow, and bOw-doWn-tO-KeiKO for catching my mistake. Huggles for you!!
Next is the ceremony...soooo cute!
Oh, and this chapter was really really really really hard to write. How can you write love letters from a boy to a girl?! It was a bit weird...Anyway.
Auditions for the school one-acts are coming up soon! Yay!! –quite happy—
Oh, and if you are on Gaia, I just joined. My name is KeitorinAsthore, and I am in dire need of stuff. Stuff in general. I am impoverished.
