"Christmas With You" by qeenoneo
The air smelt a little sweeter back then, the breeze a little crisper on my skin as I played with you until the sky turned dark. My memories may have faded as I’ve grown older, but there are certain points in my life I remember so clearly, so vivid in my mind, and adopting you was one of them. I often look back with fondness to the time that we were both young, reckless, and so full of life that nothing could stop us. Our hair may be a little grey now, our skin a little spotted, but a life with you is one well spent. This is a recollection of memories which are set in stone within my heart, and a kinship that cannot be broken. The Day You Came Home That day at the Neopian Pound is a little hazy when I try to recall the details, but I know my life changed within moments of locking eyes with you. I remember walking down aisles of Neopets looking for someone to take them home with them. Their names, written above them, were colourful to say the least. Some of them were much older, some of them mere days old. I had walked past so many pets before I was somehow drawn to you: a young Bori, 3 days old, big eyes staring straight at me with an intensity I had never felt before. I fell in love instantly and knew you were the one.
