"This one's name is Jeffrey!" Bosco explained excitedly from the screen, holding up an old horse stuffed animal so I could see it.

I smiled, gazing at Bosco on my phone screen. "That one's adorable too, baby."

She was busy giving me a room tour over facetime, and I found her excitement adorable. I would much rather see her like this over seeing her worried and anxious.

Bosco finally settled back down on her bed, letting out a soft sigh. "I still miss you."

"I miss you too. But I'll see you next week." I promised her. It was only Monday, but I was already aching to be back with her. I didn't realize how hard this would be. I had gotten so used to sleeping beside her and waking her up so she didn't miss lecture that this all felt so weird.

But it had also been a good opportunity to tell my mom about her. I had never had an actual relationship, let alone with a girl, so to say it was a shock to her would be an understatement. I had expected a bad reaction, but she had actually been happy for me. I was more than grateful for that. She had listened to my long rant about how much I really cared for Bosco, probably just still in shock I was actually with someone.

"I uh, told my mom about you." I told her nervously, tapping my fingers against the old desk in my room.

Bosco tilted her head, settling herself down on her bed. "You did? What did you say?"

"Good things." I smiled a little, laying my head down on my arms after propping my phone up. "I told her that you're my roommate, and that you're the sweetest girl I've ever met. Well besides Willow, but we all think that about Willow. And I told her that you're a cinematography major and the little short movies you've made are the coolest things. And that your nickname for me is Min and that our first date was really sweet and-" I stopped and huffed softly, noticing I was rambling.

"Keep talking, Min." Bosco giggled softly, cheeks red as she blushed. "I love hearing your voice. Keep going."

That's one of the things I loved about Bosco. She never made me feel annoying. I nodded and continued to ramble on and on, telling her about how my mom was happy for me and how she couldn't wait to meet her.

I don't know how long I had been talking, but in the middle of telling a story about my old dance instructor I looked back at my phone screen to see she had dozed off. I smiled a little and picked my phone back up, plugging it in and laying it on my pillow.

"Goodnight, Angel." I said softly as I laid down, keeping her on facetime as I started falling asleep.

Camden's POV:

"River! Don't show her that!" I quickly reached out to grab the yearbook from her hands, huffing as she laughed and just held it out of my reach.

River had gotten hear just that morning, meaning I spent the weekend getting to know Angie's family. They were a lot more welcoming than I had thought. Angie had seemed really happy about it.

"They've never liked my past girlfriends this much." She had told me that first night. Her childhood bed was small but it just gave me an excuse to cuddle even closer to her. They had another guest room, but there was definitely no way I was sleeping without her. "They can tell you're my everything."

It had been really nice. And now her and River were getting along better than I thought. It made me happy, but I also didn't want Angie seeing any embarrassing pictures that River had brought along just to show her.
