  1. *dies* YOU POSTED THE STORY.

    *flails* omw, I loved it SO MUCH - seriously, girl, you're SO TALENTED. That was the sweetest story and I ADORE how it ties into the poem (which I love) so well! (and aren't rainy days the best for story inspiration?)

    Basically this was EPIC and THANK YOU for sharing it! *hugs*

  10. But like, really, I can't even start with all the love I have for this!!!!!
    Some of my thoughts:
    1. I love that you picked the name Jeremy. I didn't "see" a name reading the poem, but the name Jeremy fits with the personality I pinned to him.
    2. SHE HELPED GRANDPOPS GO TO THE GRADUATION, that's why it was such a big deal in the poem, I'm way too happy about that!!!!
    3. The story about Jeremy's grandma <3.
    4. I love that is was written in the first person. Jeromy is rubbing off on her- now she's writing stories!
    I actually teared up at how full-circly and beautiful this was. I just love how REAL you made it!!! AND THEN THEY GOT TO KNOW EACH OTHER OVER HOT COCOA, gahhhhh.... (BTW, I had a feeling this was going to be a good story, and so I made MYSELF some hot chocolate to enjoy before I ever started reading... so. Yeah. Kind of felt like a part of the story, haha!)
    Pretty much; I want more short stories. And you should have had no worries about disappointing us. <3
    Thanks Julia!!!!

    1. OMW OMW BRI!!! *waves at you* I was waiting for you to come bc YOU WERE LIKE THE FIRST PERSON WHO WANTED THIS STORY (am so sorry the inspiration took so long lol)

      1. *squeals* I legit got the name from the photo. I was like YUP that's him. He's a Jeremy.
      2. YES YES YES YES i almost had her go to the graduation but I knew that would mess the whole meeting and bumping into each other again like in the poem lol soooo I changed that.
      3. YOU GOT THAT. omw. *squeals* I was worried people wouldn't understand
      4. YOU GOT THIS TOO *dies* okay yes THANK YOU
      no way no way no way. gahhhhhhhhhhhh I CANT THANK YOU ENOUGH you felt like you were part of it? *runs around wildly*
      eeepppp okay *goes to write more*
      THANK YOU BRI

    2. Awwwwww, were you really?!?!?!? That makes me happier than you know :D!!! It's always fun to know that someone you look forward to "hearing from" is waiting to hear from you too, haha :). I love your blog posts! And this story was worth the wait, don't apologize!!! *is thinking of reading it again* gah!
      I know, I was soooooooo scared he was only going to get to go if she went with him, but I could NOT stand the thought of their meeting being different- and even worse was if she was going to disappoint him!!!!
      Yes I got all of that, and other little things that I loved that you took the time to add! But those were my favorites :).
      No, thank YOU! I loved getting to read this story so much!
