Imperfection
Chapter I Part I

I knew the first day I saw Drew; I was head over heels crazy in love. His sky blue eyes that made the world just the least bit brighter, his shaggy blonde hair that always looked perfect. He was perfect in every way. It always puzzled me how he could fall in love with someone who is just the opposite; someone who is so imperfect. But it did happen, and tonight, he will profess his love, and drop to one knee, and ask me to become his eternal bride. His soul mate.
But before I go on, I should start from the beginning.
Drew had always been somewhere in my life. Whether it be seeing him at the grocery store, and exchanging greetings, or seeing him at school. He’d just… been there. Of course, Brackenridge was the definition of “Small town USA”, with a total population of 500.
It was in Kindergarten when we actually spoke for the first time, and I remember like it was yesterday.
“Why are your eyes so blue?” I had asked him.
“Because God maked ‘em like this.” He would reply with a twinge of southern charm, and then ask, “Landrie, why are your eyes so green?”
I would just blush in reply.
Then and there, we established some sort of friendship that I can’t actually describe. We were pretty much best friends up until we realized that the other gender didn’t actually have cooties. Then we just slowly drifted out of each other’s life.
Finally, in our Junior year at Brackenridge High, he started to talk to me again. I’m not sure how he managed to get past the millions of splashed freckles that covered my face, or the extremely curly mass of blonde that I call hair, but he did, and our friendship evolved into a relationship. And now, he takes me to dinner at a fancy French restaurant whose name I cannot bring myself to pronounce, to pop me the question. ♥
