    Summary

    "She loved him. Every aspect and facet of him. She loved his smile, the light in his eyes, and the way his eyebrows always rose up when he was surprised. She loved his flaws. How he can’t make a bed to save his life. How he’s horrible at chess despite being the smartest person she knows. She loved him as a whole, nothing excluded."

     

    or
    Inspired by Taylor Swift's "Lover", Anne reflects on her life with Gilbert.

    Summary

    As important as it was to him to maintain the conversation, it was hard for him to say more than a quiet "Oh," which, in turn, came out of his mouth quite involuntarily. He bit the inside of his cheek, annoyed with his own reaction (What had he expected? That he really would get the chance to walk Anne for the rest of his sorry life? As if one time wasn't a miracle enough!) and bore his own gaze into the tips of his shoes as he shifted uncomfortably.
    He truly was a cluck.

    Or, Anne and Gilbert decide to have a conversation on why they've become friends in the first place.

    Summary

    She wasn’t sure why she hadn’t wanted to give the letters to Ruby. When Diana had suggested it, Anne had frozen up instinctually, and her best friend had only grinned. The implication that it meant something was clear, and Anne abhorred it. She wanted the letter, and that was that. If she thought about it long enough she would be able to reason a thousand whys, but her wanting it should be enough.

    // OR seven times anne is in denial and the one time she isn't
