A Love Story in 6 Letters (A Story for #WickedWednesday)

A LOVE STORY IN 6 LETTERS (A STORY FOR #WICKEDWEDNESDAY) by Sage L Mattison

I loved the prompt this week for Wicked Wednesday and decided to play along with the meme.

Prompt: Write a post that follows the sentiments of this song.

Here are two verses that I loved the most and really inspired this short story:

I know what it feels like
Swimming through the stars when I see her
And I don’t need air cause I breathe her

When I’m lost
And need a sign
She leads the way
And I’ll be fine

A Love Story in 6 Letters

To my beautiful Kristen,

My hand is shaking as I write this, you can probably tell. I feel like I’ve had 5 espressos (I’ve only had 3!). I’m about to go pick you up for a date and on that date, I’m going to propose to you. I’m nervous. I know you are going to say ‘yes’ because we’ve talked about marriage but I’m still scared. You found me at the lowest point in my life, I was lost and you helped me back to sanity. You are beautiful and amazing and I would – will- do anything for you.
My heart, soul and mind belong to you and they will for all of time. I hope I get this right.

Love, Ben

To my glorious wife,

In just 30 minutes, you will be walking down the aisle toward me. I can’t wait to see you again, we haven’t spoken since yesterday as per tradition and I miss you. God, I miss everything about you. The way you smile, your eyes when they stare into mine. I miss your skin and your smell, I miss the way you squeeze my hand to let me know you are thinking of me.
Soon, we will be saying our vows and you will give me that smile and whisper, “I do.” And then I will be yours forever.

Love, Ben
PS- I can’t wait for our wedding night!

To my sexy wife,

We’ve been married for 6 months! The time is flying and I love being married to my best friend. Tonight, I’m going to come home with flowers and chocolate for you. And then I’m going to give you a warm bath with candles and oils. I’ll sit with you, rub your shoulders and admire your body. You complain about your ‘fat’ but baby, you just have curves in all the right places. I’m going crazy just writing this down for you.
I don’t think I will ever get tired of touching you, watching as I slide into you or hearing your moans. You are heaven.

Love, Ben

To the mother of my child,

We’re in the hospital right now, you are asleep and our little bundle of joy is sleeping on your chest. You have never been more beautiful. When you first told me you were pregnant, I jumped for joy, literally. Do you remember? Now I can’t stop smiling as I look at the two of you. You labored for almost 15 hours and you promised me dismemberment and the couch for the rest of my life and you are still gorgeous and I love you.
You are going to be an amazing mother and I am so proud of you.

Love, Ben

To the love of my life,

I can’t believe we have been together for 25 years. Tomorrow is our anniversary and I’m going to ask for your hand in marriage, again. I want to renew our vows because I can’t think of anything more amazing than being with you forever. You still complete me in every way.

Love, Ben

Kristin,

My hand is shaking as I write this, you can probably tell. I don’t want to leave you. Not because I’m afraid of what comes next, but because I’m afraid of leaving you alone. You are so strong and capable, you can do this on your own. But I know you won’t want to. Our souls are one and yours might break once I’m gone. But listen, you have to hold it together. Finish the adventures we wrote down but didn’t get to. Hold our new great-grandchild that I will never meet. Teach our kids about love and holding on when it’s gone. Don’t forget all the times be had together.
We might be old and wrinkly but you are still a goddess. You have held me together all of these years, you have led the way for me to be strong and you have been the most amazing wife and mother. Don’t forget that.

I’ll be waiting for you on the other side,
Ben.
