Dearest Lauren;

You are the most beautiful person, I've probably ever mett. No matter what you've been there for me when I need you. You listen to me, even when I have nothing to say. And you make me laugh, when I thought maybe I'd never smile again.

I don't think you realise how many lives you've touched, and how much you've changed mine. I'd have nothing to smile about at all my whole life if you wern't in it. My best days, are the day's I've spent with you. It seems like no one ever gives you the time of day to show them how great you are. The great advice you give, the loyalty you posess. You're so passionate, and honest. Never keeping the truth far from reach, living up front and in the moment. I never understand when friends betray you, or boys leave you. I'm just glad you found a guy you can care for, and love... because I know how hard that is for you. You have no idea how content it makes me feel that you could look me in the eye and swear to me, "He's perfect, in his own way. I could never ask for more." He seems great, and he brings out the better in you, and that's what you deserve. You deserve to finally be happy, instead of spending your time making other people happy.

I know maybe it won't make any sense to you why I needed to do this. But I did need to do this. It has nothing to do with you, so don't blame yourself. I swear, you're the reason I made it even this far... but I've known this was coming for a long time now.

Just let me leave you with this: Never give up on the people you love, and always have faith in yourself. You of all people, should be looking strait ahead with your head held high, because I'm sure Shian, Lauren, and especially Dan, can see that you're just a beautiful person, inside and out. If you're boy's smart, he'll know that he's never going to find another girl like you in a million years.

Take care, and good luck in the years to come. I'll see you again, someday.

Love,
K.B.
