The Notebook
It's the movie that we wanted to see along with our engagement celebrations last June... only we got sidetracked, and next thing we knew it was out of theaters.
But all hail to Blockbuster, we finally got around to rent it, and The Fiancé, despite himself and his distaste for "chick flicks", promised to watch it with me, so that's what we did last night, all cuddled up in bed. I was worried that he'd doze off on me, seeing as that's what he usually does when I "make" him watch a "flick" with me... but to my surprise he stayed with me throughout the entire thing...
...and to all lovers out there, whether you are engaged/married or not, but especially if you are engaged/married... do yourselves a favor, and watch that movie together. I won't spoil it for you if you haven't seen it... but the moment we had together when it ended was comparable to nothing. The Fiancé was touched just as much as I was, there were tears even in his eyes, and we just looked at each other and held each other so close for such a long time, feeling this overwhelming surge of love for each other... it was one of the most wonderful moments I've had with him... and I was surprised to hear him say, as he was wiping away his tears, that this was the perfect movie to see for our engagement - even if it's already 9 months past...
