One Day At A Time - One Shot

4. An Acomplishment- Troye

I woke up with a pounding headache from last night party. Having Kay and my closest friends meet Connor yesterday was my highlight of his visit to Perth. This week is going to be surreal just like many others we have lived this past year. From getting together with Connor, to making our relationship work long distance, to finding the way to stay together for months. I cannot believe is almost our anniversary. It has been a rollercoaster of emotions but just having him by my side makes everything worth while. 
"Good morning Con - How are you feeling?"
"Morning babe, like a wreck" - he is giggling as he turns around and nudges his head under my chin and snuggles closer to give me kisses around my neck. They give me butterflies every single time, I love it. I kiss his forehead in return.
We get up and start getting ready before heading downstairs to the kitchen where my mom is preparing breakfast for us.
"Babe, how am I going to survive this day?" - Connor said to me with a lost puppy face, while I am adding a few things to my suitcase. I cannot help but stop what I am doing and get his book out of my shelf and give it to him "My love this is the first one of many - would you sign my favorite book?" Con looks confuse but grabs the book anyways "But, I already sign this one?" He opens the front cover where he indeed signed a couple weeks ago when the first batch came out and dedicated to me. "Not there silly I want you to sign on my favorite chapter" Con turns the pages to our favorite chapter without having to ask, and as soon as he gets to the page he notice a piece of paper folded carefully in the middle with his name on it. He grins and turns to me. "Tro, what is this?" "Would you open it my love?"
He sits on the bed and opens it while I sit by his side and set my hand on his lap. Then he decides to read it out loud and I cannot avoid blushing.

To my dear and sweet Con Da Bon, You once told me you like to receive handwriten letters so I figure, it was time I would write one for you.
Today is a very special day as you become an official published writer. Thinks are going to be unbelievably great, they are going to be bigger than any of us can imagine and I want you to know that I will be by your side every step of the way.
There will be times when our schedules do not allowed us to be in the same place, but I will be a phone call away and my heart and thoughts will always be with you. Remember that!
I cannot be more proud of everything  you have done. You have written this so carefully and with such dedication that it shows in every single page. Please stop bitting your nails and do not doubt yourself for a second that this book is gold.
This book is the best thing that I have in my life as it gives me an inside of your life before us. So now that this book is done and published let us start a new book, a new chapter together.
As you finish  this letter I have one more thing for you. I hope you like it and used it for our next book or for whenever you just need a place to leave your thoughts.
I love you so bad!
Your boyfriend, Troye boy.

When he finish reading it I notice he has tears in his eyes, but this time are just emotional tears. He pulls me tide in a hug that I can bearly breath. "Thank you Troye, I love you so so much". He let the hug go to stare at me with his glassy green eyes I cannot contain myself. I push him down on my bed where we start kissing which evolves quickly to a full on make out session, one that stops abruptly when Sage is outside banging on my door. "Hurry up guys, we don't have much time". We stop it to only start laughing out loud, we can't get a break in the house with all my family. "Let's go but first I have your gift".
I grab a wrapped box they my mom help me wrapped from under the bed and give it to Con.  When he opens it he gives me a wide smile. It is grey leather notebook with fine lines paper inside, with a small note I wrote at the beginning of the first page.
...And the work in progress continues with me by your side -TS...
Connor gives me another kiss on my lips. "One for the road" he says. I smile and we head downstairs.
We get to the kitchen and mom and dad are eating breakfast, "First things first" mom says. She grabs a bag from from the store and pulls out a brand new book from Connor, I can't help but giggle at the sight of Connor blushing. "You should not have to do that Laurelle, you know I could have given you one." I swear, I think my mom likes Connor better than me. She ignores that comment and dad pulls a pen and give it to Connor. "Would you give us your autograph? We are all so proud of you"
Connor continues to blush while grabbing the pen and the book to write a special note for the Mellet family.
For my other family, thanks for your acceptance, love and support. You always make me feel like home.
With love Connor.
Knowing that my family likes Connor is the best feeling in the world.
With that, we eat what mom has prepare for us, coffee, eggs, toasts and fruit.
I cannot stop glancing at Connor who has a full on smile, but worried look that to be honest, it won't go away for at least the next month. We both know that. But he is content and so am I.
All my family heads out of the door to go to Sydney where Amplify will start. We know it will be an amazing and wild adventure. I cannot wait.
