Today was the day.
No more emptiness. No more heartache. No more being sick over the thought of not being able to feel him when she would reach over and be greeted by a cold, vacant spot on her bedside.
Today was the day she was finally going to be able to feel him for the first time.
To feel the warm, loving energy that radiated off of him as he smiled uncontrollably while looking into his eyes.
There was nothing unusual about her normal everyday routine of getting ready, except for the fact that she doused herself in perfume, almost actually making her clothes feel like she had been standing in the rain for 5 minutes.
He would arrive in exactly 1 hour now.
Only one more hour.
They had almost been together for a year now, but it seemed like an eternity from the day she first fell in love with him, and till now.
With the suspense and agony of waiting. She lay in her bed texting him about how she couldn't wait to put her hands around his little face when he got there.
She flirts and stares at the ceiling for the whole duration of that hour waiting for him.
She has the biggest butterflies in her stomach that need to be resolved. She can't bare to cage them any longer.
She closed her eyes and had thought about all the awkward and cute things she was going to say to him so she didn't fuck up when the time came. She thought about what it would finally be like to actually feel his long, soft hair. His freckled, pale skin. His great cheek bones that presented the biggest smile. The little accidental bump in the middle of his nose that had now grown into being one of the cutest parts of his face.
His eyes. Wanting to be able to get lost into those big brown puppy dog eyes he had. You could just melt if he smiled and looked at you long enough.
And his lips. For the fact that he was a male, he had a pretty nice set of lips on him. Pretty pink thick lips. The kind of lips you wish every guy had to make kissing that much better and sweet. Even without his lips, he would definitely still taste as sweet as can be.
Time was going quicker for the rest of the world than she thought it had. Between the endless thoughts of him running through her mind, and the exchange of sappy text that seemed like they were pulled right out of a chick flick, the minutes started to fly.
"I'm inside the neighborhood. R******* right?"
Her heart drops. Her parents are already aware of his coming but she doesn't have time or even care to say anything. All she could think about was him.
She rain down the stairs and right out the front door. She steps on onto the yard and looks back and forth down each sides of her street, desperately waiting for a car to slow down in front of her house.
Then it happens. A car rounds the corner on the right side of the street and comes to a stop on the side of the road. She can see a little faded outline of someone in the passenger's seat looking back at her for just a second before almost jumping out of the opened car door.
It's him.
He runs into the street and around the front of the car. She can't even think. She runs to him involuntary, jumping into his arms and wrapping herself around him. Arms around his neck, legs around his waist. She had never held onto something tighter in her life. Many different happy noises came from the pair. Most of it was almost sobbing noises of joy. She couldn't believe that she was actually touching him. The physical presence of the love of her life was right here. In her arms, holding her. She lifted her head from being pressed into his shoulder and looked at her face. She had dreamt of this moment. Holding his cute little face in her hands and getting lost in those little puppy dog eyes of his. She did exactly just that. She was finally able to actually get a good look at his face for the first time. All the detailed, intricate features of his face that she went out of her way to see anytime she got the chance to. Now it was different. She was able to not only see them but feel every inch of him. They were both uncontrollably smiling as they were looking back at each other's eyes. This all went on for a good 10 minutes. She finally unwrapped herself from around him and stood up, but was still hypnotized by him. Finally, she eventually shook herself out of the trance and lead him inside, hand locked to his. She quickly showed him around the house, but couldn't wait any longer, finally settling with him, talking, flirting, cuddling endlessly in her room.
