I have a nice one.

I was on a little three-day-weekend away with someone. We went to Niagara Falls on the second day. I didn't really want to go, but he pretty much dragged me along anyway. Oh, well. One of the wonders of the world, right? Well, after seeing the falls (which I didn't find all that wonderful) I thought we should go to an arcade we saw there. So we went in and we wandered around playing games and junk as people do in arcades, when I realized that I didn't have my digital camera with me any more. I'd gotten it for my birthday two months earlier, and I'd discovered that I really liked photography, so I was noticeably upset. Well, that pretty much ruined our day so we went back to the hotel room. Every twenty minutes or so he kept telling me he wanted to buy me a new camera, but I kept saying no. That's a big gift to accept from someone. Anyway, he wouldn't stop so I said "Alright, you know what? We'll go look for a new camera before you leave tomorrow and you can pay for some of it. Not all of it, not most of it, some of it." He agreed to it and stopped talking about it.

So the next day we were in Best Buy and he put it on his credit card and I thrusted a wad of 20s at him. He looked at it and just said to me "You can't afford that much." Well, that wasn't the deal. I was all like "But... but... but...." and said we could talk about it over coffee. So we went to a Second Cup and he looked me in the eyes and said, "Look, you can't afford that much. I don't have a lot of money, but I have enough, and I want to spend it doing this for you. Tell you what, you take a bunch of pictures and send them to me, and you pay for the coffee, and we'll call it even."

When it was time for him to leave, he dropped me off and walked me up to the apartment I was staying in. He hugged me (and kissed me, of course) and I hugged him back and I didn't really want to let go. I was all cheesy and emotional. It was heartbreaking to see him leave, but that was the sweetest, most romantic thing anyone has ever done for me.

Now if you'll excuse me I have to go cry a little.
