Creators' Notes (optional): I began some of these dribbles for the "Canon Couples" card in 2012, and decided to see how many more of them I could complete this year.
Summary: The Gamgees and the Cottons were distant cousins and good friends; sometimes childhood friendships can become more.

The Gardener's Daughter and the Farmer's Son

He always saw me as just his friend's little sister,
and o' course, his own little sister's best friend.
He used to chase me, pull my braids,
and I'd tease him somewhat awful.
But one summer it changed.
His eyes met mine,
I'd grown up.
Him, too.
Good!

Ooh, but this I like so! And it is hopeful! Would be interested to see a reverse-dribble for this one!
