Dear Aubree,

I was so excited and nervous when I stood in front of your house. Today was the start.
I push the doorbell.
You went outside, your hair a mess. You were wearing black jeans, a white shirt and a blue flannel.
You looked beautiful. You always have.
"Jin, hey," you said, all shy. You stepped out of the way, letting me enter your apartment.
I was silent. I didn't know what to do.
I hugged you.
You seemed shocked at first... but you still hugged me back.
"I missed you," I confess.
"I missed you too, Seokjin," you said, making my heart beat faster.
"I waited for you... it's the 111th day today."
You pushed me away gently. "Jin... you counted?"
I smile sheepishly. "Yeah, I did."
"I... I don't know what to say," you chuckle quickly and quietly.
"You don't have to say anything. For you, I'll wait."
***
I took you out. We went to your favorite restaurant.
We ate quietly. God, how I missed this.
"Aubree," I call.
"Yeah?" you say, twirling your pasta on your fork.
"Can I hold your hand?"
You smile, offering your hand.
"Of course."
I slowly held your hand. I sigh in relief.
"I missed this," you admitted, giving me a small smile.
"I missed you," I answer. I really did.
"S-Seokjin, eat your food! Stop staring at me," you laugh. I blush and stare at my food.
"You know, I could get used to this..." you whisper, thinking I didn't hear, but I did.
I don't want you to go...
I want you to stay. Stay, please?

Love,
Kim Seokjin
