I remember how excited and scared and thrilled I was when you replied to me on your site.

I remember how you knew what I needed you to say from the first time we spoke.

I remember how I smiled at you, looking at you sideways, too scared to see your face and you knew what I wanted to say and you said it for me.

I remember walking across the airport in Las Vegas and seeing you in a blue shirt. I remember how clean and crisp you smelled and how within moments I found a way to hide in you and feel safe because I was shy of the rest of you.

I remember kissing you in a lift and blushing when other people got in. I stood and held you hand and looked at the floor and tried not to be too English and obvious.

I remember when you left me for two minutes at a bar and a man sat next to me and tried to chat me and how suddenly I missed you so much that I could not bear another man talking to me. I hopped off the stool and waited for you.

I remember laughing so much that I almost fell off the bed and how you caught me.

I remember kissing you in a way I have not kissed for years and years. I remember rediscovering what kisses were for.

I remember holding your hand as though I were returning to you, as though the moment we met it was just five minutes since I had left you.

I remember realising how freely I had breathed since I met you. I remember how I realised that my secrets were secrets no longer. I did not need to tuck them in and keep them quiet. I could whisper them into your shoulder.

I remember crying in the airport. I remember asking you to go quickly. I remember standing and sobbing for all the world to see as you walked away.

I remember walking through your Floridian house and being so thrilled that we would so much time together.

I remember unpacking and realising I had almost a whole suitcase of knickers.

I remember making mojitos and carrying them out to the pool. The joy of you and time and a cool evening making me so smile so much that it turned into a laugh.

I remember filling your freezer with industrial amounts of chili.

I remember how I made you smile in a way that would make me blush. I remember wanting you every moment.

I remember how you laughed when you caught me and tipped me over your knee and how annoyed I was that I loved to hear that laugh.

I remember lying in your arms watching the storm.

I remember how quickly you built a fire when it was cold.

I remember showing you the sightes of my life and seeing them reflected in your eyes.

I remember how you made me feel when you turned me over.

I remember how you warmed my face and my hands when it was snowy and cold.

I remember a thousand stories you have told me.

I remember how you have made my stomach drop when you started to speak to me in that strict, low tone.

I remember how you made words flow freely that once I dare not even think.

I remember your smile when I was naughty.

I remember how it was before I knew you, when I did not know if I could love anymore.

I remember when I thought that no one could ever know me and love me.

I remember your blue eyes.

I remember your smile.

I remember you.

I remember every day how much I love you.

Would you like another?
