Thanks Mike (http://www.ubersite.com/m/84616)
And
Thanks Pentameter (http://www.ubersite.com/m/84617)
For the inspiration:
Hey you, Mr. Right, it's me, Some Girl. I guess we might as well go out, but I'm on a schedule here. I'm 14, and I need to be done with college 8 years from now, so I can start my career. You're about 2 years older than me, and much better looking. We have comparable intellects and interests. I'm way too young to mate, but maybe we can kiss?
Let's begin this atypical courtship shall we?
Hey, let's go to a football game, or maybe a movie; that was great. Let's not fight about anything, at least for a few years anyway. Good.
I want sex... isn't that funny? I'm still way too young, but still I think I'm ready. That was good. Now let's not let on that we've done it for 3 years. I don't want to put pressure on my friends; you know you'll get to brag plenty when we're both a little older.
Ok, I guess it's time to move into an apartment together. I'm starting college in the fall, the same one you go to. Let's find a place close to school, 40 miles from either of our parents. We'll live there for 2 years. Let's go to a 4th of July barbecue at your uncle's. He's making ribs, and I love ribs.
Ok, time to buy a house. It will be a 2 story house, with a garage for your 70 Monte Carlo. That was your first car. The house would be something to talk about, if either of us ever got to talk to our friends. We are so busy with school and work.
But before we move in, go ahead and propose. I'll never understand why you were nervous. We've been together 6 years. Go ahead and take me to a Bed and Breakfast. It's ok if you're too excited to wait, and pop the question while I'm still in the tub. I will look back on it fondly.
Now let's go camping. Let's go on a weekend when it's rainy so the campground will be muddy. Let's no take any pictures of ourselves; we'll leave that up to the parents at Christmas. Let's just try to have a good time. Try to ignore the fact that the campground is a swamp.
Our wedding will take place 2 years from your proposal. It really doesn't take that long to plan a wedding, I just want to graduate first. Then I'll take 2 months to plan the wedding, while you plan our honeymoon to Germany. I will be the center of attention for the week or so after I get the ring, but then everyone will move on. And that's ok, because I hate being the center of attention. Fortunately, this will not be the highlight of my life. I want to write a great book. I want to see the world. I want to really live, and I want to do it with you. I also want to look thinner in my dress than my bridesmaids, but that isn't going to happen.
After the wedding I will look at the ring on my finger often, and you will catch me at it. We will say to each other "you're my husband" "you're my wife" because for the first time after 8 years, we are. I will send the thank you notes, but I will forget the stamps.
Finally, we will both settle into 1st shift jobs, and will have time for friends again. You will stock the house with enough alcohol to operate a bar, but this will be pointless, we usually go out with friends, they rarely come to the house.
I decided a long time ago, that I do not ever want children. I will feel guilty about this; because I know you would be a great father. Maybe, when I am older, I will change my mind, but I strongly doubt it.
I'm sure our children would be as wonderful as you.
Eventually, we will have enough money to build our dream home, with the game room, and library, and everything. We will not build a pool. I'm a country girl. We'll live by the creek.
There will be several dogs.
We will vacation. We will see Greece, South America, Africa, Laos, and Cambodia.
You will die of old age, but I don't want to think about it. I will follow you eventually. I can't imagine what I will do in the meantime.
I'll have my mom drop me off at the game at 6:30.

good effort, but it should have stopped after the first two.
