Letter 1: Grade 8

Dear Pen-Pal,
Hello! My name is ______! The main reason I'm writing this letter is for a class of mine in school. Isn't that a little bit odd? Anyway, I am fourteen years old and I like art, but I don't think I'm any good at it. What do you like? I don't know what else to write, sorry!
-______

Dear Pen-Pal,
Hello to you! I am Feliciano! My teacher at school said we would be getting pen-pal letters and I think that's shizzy! My teacher is also helping me write this since I am not the best in English yet. I am 15 and my two favorite things in the world are pizza and pasta! I love art as well! There's so much pretty art! I hope we will write like this for years!
-Feliciano


Letter 10: Grade 9

Dear Feliciano,
I'm in a different school now. It's scary. I don't really know anybody here. I feel like an outcast. Have you ever felt that way before? At least I can look forward to you writing letters to me.
-______

Dear ______,
I had to ask a teacher what outcast meant. I guess my English isn't the best yet! When I found out, I felt really worried for you! I wish I were there, because then you wouldn't feel alone! Maybe some day I will visit.
-Feliciano

Letter 24: Grade 10

Dear Feliciano,
I met a new friend today, and she's really nice. We have a lot of common interests! So how are things in Italy? I hope Lovino isn't giving you too much of a hard time. Can you tell him I said hi?
-______

Dear ______,
I like making friends! I'm glad you made one! Life for me in Italy is amazing as usual! I love going for walks when it's pretty outside. Lately I've been playing football…or soccer. I keep forgetting that you're used to calling football soccer. Lovino has needed a lot of hugs from me lately! He's been so cranky! You know, I still want to visit you some day. I can teach you how to make pasta from scratch!
-Feliciano

Letter 37: Grade 11

Dear Feliciano,
There's this really cute guy at school. I like him a lot, but I don't think he likes my personality. I'm really shy, and I get nervous when I talk to him. I hate to sound like someone who believes in stereotypes, but Italians are pretty romantic, right? Do you think you have a few pointers?
-______

Dear ______,
You always use big words when talking to me! But it helps me improve my English! Anyway, I'm pretty romantic myself! You should try being yourself first. I say you should flirt! Flirt like crazy! I wish you good luck!
-Feliciano

Letter 38: Grade 11

Dear Feli,
It worked! He asked me out! I can't believe that it happened! It turns out he liked me too, but was nervous himself! I've been in such a good mood lately too. Our first date is coming up! Oh and no matter what, you're still going to be my number one guy. You may live in Italy, but you're still one of my best friends ever. I'm glad we continued writing after all these years.
-______

Dear ______,
I'm glad to know you get to go on a date with this guy! I think he's lucky to have you as a girl-friend! Good luck with everything! I'm glad we continued writing, no matter how many times you use big words I do not know! Maybe I should start writing random Italian in my letters!
-Feliciano

Letter 50: Grade 11/12

Dear Feli,
Well…he broke up with me. It really sucks too. I'm trying to enjoy my summer, and then this happens. It's so devastating. Do you ever have relationship problems? From all our writing, I find it impossible for you not to find a girl. Sorry if I sound like a downer. At least I know I can write to you. It always makes me feel better.
-______

Dear ______,
I'm sorry to hear that you two broke up. All your letters that included him made things seem like things were perfect between you too. As for me, everybody where I live think I'm…a stupid coward (looked in a dictionary for coward). The only girls that are attracted to me are tourists, so it doesn't last long. Long-distance relationships never work out, you know? I hope you feel better soon. If I were there, I'd give you a big hug!
-Feliciano

Letter 72: Grade 12

Dear Feli,
I'm graduating from school in a month. I'm really nervous. I'm accepted into college, and I even got a scholarship! It's just…shocking that I'll be free soon! I know you're not in school right now, is it weird? Do you know what kind of career you want? I have no clue what I want to do!
-______

Dear ______,
I remember graduating. I had to take this exam. It sucked! A career? I've always thought about being a chef!
______, I've been saving up my money for a really long time. I have enough money now to fly and visit you until you go to the university. If you'll allow me, I want to come out as soon as possible. Maybe I can see your graduation? I would really like that.
-Feliciano.

So there I was standing inside the airport with a stupid sign that says "Feliciano", except I ran out of room after writing "Felic", and the "iano" is cramped at the end. When I held the sign, I felt like one of those limousine drivers. My eyes wandered for anybody that could possibly be him. I wasn't sure what he looked like. We had this stupid promise to not show photos of us except of ones when we were little kids. He looked so much like a girl in the ones he showed me! I was really nervous. I had been Feliciano's pen-pal for years, and now I was going to meet him for the first time!

Thirty minutes passed. I looked back at the email he sent me when he left home the previous night. It said that he would arrive at this time. In the corner of my right eye, I spotted young man. He is taller than me, but is still kind of short. His hair is reddish-brown, and his eyes are of a golden tint. He is wearing a semi-formal black button-up t-shirt with a blue tie. That had to be Feliciano. I noticed a strange curl in his hair. It is Feliciano. I held up the sign. He looked around before noticing me and my sign. His face lit up.

"______!" he shouted at the top of his lungs. He ran towards me with his entire luggage in hand. As soon as he as close enough, he dropped his entire luggage. He softly kissed my cheeks before pulling me into a big hug. "I'm so glad we finally get to meet
EDIT The bottom text has been changed. The narration changed from present tense to past tense.

Woot! I was able to work on this new reader insert! It's a lot different than my America insert, which is good because it's nice to have a good variety!

The name went from To My Pen-Pal to Dear Pen-Pal. It just rolled off the tongue better.

The letters seem really short. These are meant to be like excerpts or something.

Not sure how long this story will be. There won't be many time skips as AAWIAB though.

I like the way Feli greets the main character. Enough said xD

I hope you like it!
