This is the girl's perspective from my post last week, "Remember Her", this does not have to be read second.

You asked me

"Remember when we ran into each other?"

I laughed because that was what happened

And I remember when

I was walking with my friends

Complaining about one of my classes

And talking about summer

I remember it being windy on the quad

There was a gust of wind and

My hair flew in front of my face

Next thing I knew I was falling

I looked down and saw your green eyes

They weren't the typical jade green

They were the exact shade of new leaves and grass

I recognized you from one of my classes

You were the boy I told my friends about

I didn't know your name then

You didn't know mine either

A couple days later

I was walking back to the dorm and scrolling through my phone

When I ran into you again

You asked my name instead of the typical

"We have to stop meeting like this"

That's what made me want to know more about you I said

You smiled because I didn't know that you were going to say that

I remember you asking me out on a coffee date

You didn't know that your favorite place was my safe place

You were too nervous to see me walk in

When the barista recognized me and asked

Why I was there so late

I told her I was here to meet you and giggled

That's when you looked up and she whispered

"Keep him, this is his favorite spot too"

I giggled again as you gave me a look

That asked a million questions and answered all of mine at the same time

When the inevitable day came

That I stopped responding to your texts and Snapchats

When I started ignoring your calls

I had dove back into my head again

The imagination you complimented and loved

Was the thing that broke me down the most

And you didn't know it

You raced over after class

I didn't open the door

I couldn't

Later you learned why

You learned that the imagination you loved

Could create the brightest places

But also crafted the darkest on it's own

Whenever I locked the door

You were always waiting behind it with hugs and my favorite things

You learned to catch the signs

Before I knew they were happening

You caught me before I fell

And it took me months to realize that it had been a while

Since locked doors and silent dorms

I remember when you took me on

Rooftop dates and hiking trails

You satisfied my need for an adventure and a challenge

But you also made movie dates with the perfect mixture of

Cozy and sweet

I remember finding the ring box in our first apartment

It took you 6 more months to propose

You carried it with you everywhere,

Just waiting for the perfect moment

You finally proposed in a way that was perfect for us

My clumsiness got the best of me

When I got up and saw you

On one knee

I said yes before you could say anything

You never asked me how I knew

I remember your face when I walked down the aisle

Your smile wiped away any fears

When I got to you at the end

I was met with

"See, I told you you wouldn't trip"

I silently giggled all the way through the

"I do"

You haven't cured my bad days

And I never expect you to

You know when they are coming

That is all I can ask for

When they come now,

They aren't as bad as before

And maybe it's you

Or the dog that hasn't left my side for two years

Or maybe it's the sleeping baby in my arms

I don't know how, but when you ask

"Remember the day we met ?"

I smile and recount the days with a simple

" I remember when"
