First Snowfall

As the Snow falls from the sky today it reminds me of one of the many sweet moments I had shared with Chris it was one thing to go out and play in the snow which we did every year it was another to do what he did one night.

I was on the phone with him like always and he knew every little bit of difference in my voice and could tell something was bothering me that one night and asked me what it was and it was the norm my parents were fighting again my father was drunk. I had locked myself in my room I hated to hear them fight. Chris could tell I had been crying too well he told me he wanted me to close my eyes and imagine us dancing and to turn on one of our favorite songs and just ignore the yelling and imagine us dancing. well we had hung up and I was listening to my music and imaging us dancing when I heard a knock at my deck door ( I was lucky my room was the one with a deck attatched) and when I opened my eyes and looked there was Chris standing on my Deck!!!!! I quickly got up and opened the door and asked him what he was doing on my deck and he said he came because he didnt want his angel to cry. Well I smiled and asked how he got on my deck and he replied I would scale the highest peaks to get to you. he had paused a moment and said I used my dads latter. Well it has started to Snow heavily outside and he had coaxed me out there with my bare feet and all outside and he then went over the edge and yelled down to his mom turn it on please and she had turned on some music and we started to slow dance and I will always remember how warm his arms were around me and how protective they felt to he always came to my rescue and I think this was the first time I realized that we were more then just friends there was more to us to the realtionship that grew more and more.

To this day when I see if snowing really hard I remember that dance and the many times we did that again making it a tradition to go and dance in the snow and just enjoy the gentle serene calm that comes with it.
