I don't know what it was that made me need to say it right there and then, but I just had to. I felt it like a flood of love coursing through my veins and if I didn't say it then, I would have burst. Connor was looking at me with a mixture of shock and adoration, I was hoping that the latter was more prominent in his mind. It seemed like a lifetime until he replied "I love you too baby"
I smiled. Not only was it the first time that Connor had called me something cute like that, but I knew he meant it, I could see it in his eyes. Just for a second, I wanted to cry with happiness. I didn't of course, but the feeling was overwhelming.
The next day, after saying goodbye to our friends and boarding our flight Connor looked so tired he could barley hold his own head up. We settled in our seats and I told him to rest his head on my shoulder and sleep for a while. He tried not to, but in the end, he couldn't resist. He gently nodded off and I leant into him, smelling the sweet scent of his hair and feeling the beautiful tingling sensation on my arm where his fingers softly laid, dancing every so often as he moved in his sleep.
I popped open my laptop and opened up Twitter. "1 New Message"
Troye: "Mate! I'm so happy for you! I wanted you guys to get together, but I didn't realise it would happen so fast haha :)"
"Thanks cutie! I'm so happy, it's been a long time since I've felt this way about someone. I can't wait to get home and so we can start our life together :')"
I had to pinch myself to remember that this really was happening, that Connor felt that same spark that I did. Truthfully I'd felt that spark the day that we first met years ago, I just hadn't known what it really was until recently. I wonder if the same thing happened for Connor?
I stayed on Twitter for a bit, checked Facebook and Tumblr, watched a few YouTube videos and then surrendered to the sleep that was calling my name.
