dear sara (@sulliimeadows) —

between the two of us, i’m probably the more emotional and sentimental, so it shouldn’t surprise you that i made something for today. because well, today is important. and while i don’t know the exact day we met, i know it’s around now. hell, i’m pretty sure it’s like today or tomorrow or sometime this week but i guess that’s the point. i don’t know the exact day because this is the most natural friendship i’ve ever had in my life. you’re someone who i met, and somehow, you were my best friend within weeks. i know that naws was a huge clusterfuck and that towards the end of the actual group, i spent more days crying to you on AIM than actually letting myself enjoy anything, but i can’t bring myself to regret it? because as shitty as the ending of that group was, it’s still the group that brought me you. sure, we could’ve met in novella and i’m still kicking myself for missing that train because it would’ve brought you to me a whole year sooner... but regardless, it’s been three years now. and as much as it’s been an experience at times and we’ve fought, i still don’t know where i’d be without you. this speech is going to be a bit shorter than normal because i’m too emotional for life, but i just wanted to say like, thank you for coming into my life. thank you for giving me the chance to experience this friendship. for talking to me, for taking up a character simply because i asked you to, for letting me ship with allison because let me tell you, i didn’t deserve it back then, and for keeping all of our babies. i know the shitty graphic above doesn’t encompass all of the babies we have in naws, but it’s a few. just a little reminder of how far we’ve come since spring 2014, and that i love you more than anything. thank you for the memories, for the good times and the bad, and for being my other half, in more ways than you could possibly know. you’re amazing, and i hope you know how much i appreciate you and the past three years. i wouldn’t give them away for anything,

i love you, best friend. here’s to making more years of adventures, yes?
