I just wrote this, and I'm not giving it to her, but I needed to let it out.

Dear Colleen,
I feel I must tell you something.
Its about Paul.
I like him. I mean, I like him. More than that. I like him a lot.
Now, as much as I dont want him, or any boy, in fact, to come between us, I feel that he is some how being "snatched" from under my nose.
Your pretty, Lena. And thin. And what am I?
Nothing.
But Paul likes me a little.
And a little may be enough...but you like him.
And I dont know if he likes you but...next to me...who wouldnt?
I've never had a boyfriend, you know that.
How many have you had? Lets just say, a lot more than me.
I'm so sorry for saying this, but I'd really, really, really like it if you'd just lay off.
I have a good feeling about...this.
I'm not quite sure what "this" is yet, but I hope, and I hope with all my might, that this may just be Paul and I.
I dont want a big thing.
I love you, and Ashlee, and I know that all of this is very akward for Paul, but it is for me too. He must be very freaked out.
Expecially when you're around.
Because, lets face it Lenny, your the whole package.
And you like him.
So...
I dont know.
But I want him. And...well, I've never told anyone this, but, I had a dream about him.
About us.
And I remember every detail of that dream because it was so great.
I was having fun.
I might seem like I have fun a lot, you know...but...there is a lot of stress on me right now.
With my dad and all.
But this has nothing to do with him.
And it has everything to do with him.
All of my life I have known that I would not ever date a man like my father.
And Paul. Is nice. And funny. And I love being around him. It makes me more happy then I've ever been.
Lena. I love you so much.
But I dont believe that you like him like I do.
But, if you do, then, well I know that there is nothing I can do to stop you from going after him. Just like there is nothing you can do.
My aproach might be a little less straight forward, but eventually I'll know exactly what and where this thing is going. You, on the other hand, would just go for it. Thats a major diffrence between us.
Because...well, basically I dont have as much self confidence as you do, Lena.
I love you, and I'd like to end this note by saying that I hope we stay friends forever, and I really do hope that you wont be angry with me for this.
