*ringing* "hi babe, how's it going over there?" i asked, "oh angel it's going amazing, it would be even better if you were here though" david replied.
i sighed, tonight was the night of the moonbound solstice, my boyfriend, david's favourite night of the year. a day to celebrate all he was, and my stupid anxiety ruined it for him. he had been so excited for me to go with him, not that he shows it but i can just tell. and at the very last minute, i had to ruin it for him.
"yeah, i'm still really sorry about that baby, i wish i was confident enough to be there with you right now. i know how much of an amazing day this is for you and i'd have loved to have celebrated it with you, i'm sorry" i spoke, tears welling up in my eyes as i thought of the disappointment I had caused david. "angel. as much as i would have loved for you to have been here tonight with me, i 100% understand that you're incredibly anxious around a lot of people, especially around a lot of people you barely know. we have next year were we can try again. but honestly, Angel, don't worry. all i want is for you to feel happy" he replied.
a tear rolled down my cheek, how did i get so lucky? "davey, i love you so much" , my voice now shaky. "I love you too Angel, I'll see you when I get home yeah? I'll bring you back some cake" I could hear the smile in his voice.
1:30am
warm arms wrapped around my waist, I felt david pull me closer into him, and place a soft kiss on my cheek. "i'm proud of you for even trying to come today" david spoke. i slowly rolled over, "oh sorry angel, I didn't mean to wake you up" david said, "it's ok baby, I'm glad you did, I missed your face tonight" david simply rolled his eyes before pulling me in closer for a kiss.
"I love you, Angel, I missed you tonight"
