"I had a work trip to Paris and I ended up tacking a few days onto the end of it with one of my best friends. I'd asked Steven to come as well, but he had a boys trip to Seattle planned already. Before we left, my friend asked if I wanted to do a fun photoshoot with her in front of the Eiffel Tower. I said yes, she booked booked a photographer, and I threw a red dress in my luggage (one that Steven encouraged me to get a few months before then....). Mid-shoot that morning, the photographer handed me a card addressed to me.... from Steven. Hands shaking from the cold and my nervousness, I opened the card and inside were notes I had written Steven back when we were doing long distance. The notes were about all the things we could do once we were finally together. One of the notes (which I forgot I'd written) was “Go to Paris and kiss under the Eiffel Tower”....Before I knew it Steven came walking up the stairs behind me, as emotional as I've ever seen him.."
