Chapter Text
Oh, life can be strange
Good and bad in so many ways
And in time you will find
That things aren’t always what they seem
Well, I've got something to say
But you might laugh, joke or run away
'Cause I'm awkward and nervous
Sometimes I don't say much at all
But if the rain must fall if I lose it all
If the world comes down and takes my soul
If the sky turns black and there's no way back
It won't matter much to me if I had you
All I need is your love that's all I need
All I need is your love
Oh, well, dreams can come true
If you know inside you really want them to
Or you can sit you can wait
You can leave your fate in someone else's hands
Oh but I, I want you
And nothing else can make me feel the way you do
So I'm waiting, I'm wishing
That it's me you'll be holding tonight and every night
Dear Chase,
You may not have noticed this, but I’m not the best when it comes to saying the things I need to say. It’s like my brain becomes overworked and synapses start firing left and right without any reason. Then I fumble over my words and look like a third grader trying to talk to a girl for the first time. Or, in my case, another boy.
We kissed in the airport and nothing has been the same for me since. Is that how it’s been for you? I know it was a spur of the moment thing but I saw the look you had in your eyes when that flight attendant pulled you away so that you didn’t miss your flight. I feel the same way.
I decided to make this mix CD for you because these songs say everything I need to say. Well, they will, once I finish picking them all out. I want them to be just right, ya know?
I hope you’re having a good time in New Zealand with your family. It’s nice being back on the farm but I miss hanging out in the base and being around everyone. I even almost miss being ambushed by monsters from outer space. Almost.
God, I really miss you.
Riley
