Shall Not Sleep [bxb]

Dear Alastair

Dear Alastair,

I don't know what to say. How can I write anything that could possibly compare to last night? It was a dream come true beyond all other dreams come true. You were here. You were here and I was here and we were together. We made love. Oh my God, I'm not a virgin anymore. Oh my God, that was my very first kiss. I'm just realizing that right now -- that's how dazed and completely insane I am right now.

What are the chances that we can make that happen again? What were you doing that made you appear? Were you thinking about me? Because I was definitely thinking about you. I'm going to try my hardest to make this happen again, okay? Because... because last night was amazing. I wish there was a word better than "amazing," because it's so cliché. Oh well. A cliché is the best I can come up with, I guess.

I just can't stop thinking about the things you whispered to me. I'm here. Always. I just hope they prove to be true.

Love,

Max

PS—I'm enclosing a picture that I took moments after you disappeared without a trace. If I look devastated, I'm sorry. That's just how I look when I get the thing I want most and then have it snatched away.
