Penelope Garcia's POV

It's 8pm and I'm waiting for her to skype me. My computer finally rings and Skype opens.

"Hey, Sweetheart!" A British voice says.

"Hey, Sugar! How are you?"

"Not that bad. It's 8pm at your home?"

"Yes. And it's... Wait... 1am at yours."

"Yes!"

"When are you leaving for the United States?"

"I'm on my way to the airport. But I've learnt that my flight has been delayed by two hours. So I'll be two hours late."

"Oh..."

"But I'll be there soon."

"I know Honey... But I can't wait to see you."

"I can't wait either. Did you tell your friends about me?"

"Not yet. But I want you to be there when I'll tell them."

"How do you think they'll react?"

"I think they'll understand. At least they have to because you're making me happy."

My phone rings, I answer.

"Hi, Babygirl."

"Hi, Chocolate Thunder. What's up?"

"Nothing much. I was just wondering if you wanted to watch a movie with my me tonight."

"I can't. I'm really busy. And I thought about going to bed soon."

"Oh... That's sad. I have the night free because Desiree is at a friend's house with Lacey."

"Maybe next time..."

"Okay."

"Sorry..."

"Good night, Sweetie Pie."

"Good night, Chocolate Cake."

I hang up.

"Who was it?"

"My best friend, Derek. You'll meet him when you'll arrive here. When do you think you'll arrive at the airport?"

"My flight arrives at 5am. I'm supposed to get to Boston at 12:40pm if there's no problem. Then I have to wait for the next flight during two and a half hours. So I'm supposed to take the next flight at 3:10pm. And I'm supposed to get to Richmond at 5:06pm. So, it'll be 1pm for you. Will you be there?"

"Of course, I will! Do you want that we organize a dinner tomorrow night?"

"No. I'll probably be exhausted, so I might just want to stay with you and chill."

"If that is what you wish. Then, see you tomorrow! Could you skype me when you'll arrive in Boston?"

"Of course! Good night Honey!"

"Have a good flight Sweetie!"

"I love you."

"Love you too. See you tomorrow!"

Then she hangs up.

I smile. I can't believe I found true love of an online Internet game! I love her so much!
