Tanner,

We haven't had the typical friendship. On paper it shouldn't work, with me being a grumpy recluse around new people and you being overly friendly and outgoing. Maybe it's just because we were trapped together in the civilian hellscape that is Stevens Transport or maybe opposites really do attract. Either way, I will forever be grateful that you were as persistent as you were. 

There were many times when we worked there that I mentally anguished, but every single time you managed to bring me out of it just by being there. And although we don't talk as much as we used to, I still cherish the relationship we have.

As you know, my wedding is rapidly approaching, and there are only a handful of people I want by my side on that day. 

Would you do me the kindness of accompanying me at the altar on October 15th?
