Life

I haven't gotten to the end of States, but I have to add this tonight. I gave David a note at the last moment I saw him, saying that I was attracted to him, and giving him my email address and phone number. He loves me back. He's coming over on Saturday. Like a date.
Here's his email to me...
Amber,
" After you gave me your letter, I could hardly get it off my mind, but up until now I've been preoccupied after getting back from spring break. That aside, I feel guilty because I hadn't gotten up the nerve to ask you out. Not to mention, having to wait until the next Certamen workshop was hardly something I wanted to do. Although I'm a bit surprised that you made the first move, but I'm glad one of us was able to do it. Anyway, I had a great time at the dance and whenever I saw you, yet I didn't ask because of the last breakup I had, to say the least, it went badly. Well, I've got some ideas for where we could go, but I'd rather see when your available before setting anything in stone. During the week I'm maxed out, but on the weekends I'm pretty flexible. My cell is --------, home is ---------, hope to hear from you soon, but if I'll call tomorrow if I don't hear from you today, (cell phone preferable, my family is a bit nosy) -Sorry for waiting so long,
-David"
He actually gave me his numbers, of course-- but I wouldn't tell y'all. I fear for what would happen to him at the hands of Baki or (especially) Erik...
