" Kait,im not always the beat at exspressing myself to you,so im taking advantage of the fact that i will be completely unresponsive when you read this, and therefore incapable of messing things up.
I want to thank you for giving me a chance. when i first saw you, i knew i had found something incredible. And since then all i've wanted was to be with you as much as possible.
When i thought i had lost you, i was torn betewwn wanting you back and wanting the best for you-wanting you to be happy.seeing you so miserable during the weeks we were apart gave me the courage to fight for us...to find a way for things to work.And seeing you happy again in the dayswe've been back together makes me think i did the right thing.
I cant promise you an ordinary experience,kate.I wish i could transform myself into a normal man and be there for you,always,without th trama that defines my life as "the walking dead." Since that isnt possible, I can only reassure yoiu that i will do everything in my power to make it up make it up to you. To give you more that a normal boyfriend could.I have no idea what that will mean, exactly, but i'm looking forward to finding out. With you.
Thank ou for being here, my beauty. Mon ange. My Kate.
Yours utterly,
Vincent "

" I may just have one or two of your favorite films waiting downstairs for you. We could even order some pizza and dine in style. Is it a date?”
“A real date! I accept!” I almost squealed, and then, trying to dampen my enthusiasm, continued, “Only since you claim you’ll be such boring company, of course. Otherwise I’d be fine just sitting here, staring into your eyes all night.”
Vincent paused, looking at me suspiciously for a second, and then, grinning, asked, “Sarcasm?”
“Yes,” I laughed. “You’re pretty quick for an old guy.”
“Damn, and I thought I had finally found a true romantic,” "

" Can I wait until later to tell you my story?” he asked, sounding uncomfortable. “I don’t want to completely weird you out by talking about who I used to be before having the chance to show you who I am now.” He shot me an awkward smile.
“Does that mean I don’t have to tell you about my past either?” I lobbed back.
“No,” he groaned. “Especially since I’ve barely started to figure you out.” He paused. “Just please, don’t ask me yet. Any other question, just not that.”
“Okay, how about . . . why do you have a photo of me next to your bed?” I prodded.
“Did that creep you out?” he said, laughing.
“Yeah, kind of,” I admitted. “Although I saw it about a second after I found you dead on your bed, so the creep factor was already pretty high. "
