        It had been a long boring day, so I did what I normally did when I'm bored, think of Lucas. Lucas has been mine for about four years now, almost five in a few weeks. We haven't got to see each other in a while now and I miss him, even though we talk almost everyday.
       I go on my phone and post an "I miss you" picture, just like any other couple would do. I kept refreshing my feed until I saw that he liked it. "Just four more days," that is when we get to see each other, "I miss you." I smiled, he makes my day by the simplest things.
      I turn off my phone and get ready for bed. I of course grab my sloth onesie, not only because it reminds me of Lucas, but so I can pretend I'm a sloth. Anyways, I put on my playlist on Spotify, which is mostly drake and got in the shower.
    I finally get out after twenty minutes. I put up my hair, so it can stay out of my way while I get dressed. Then finally took it down afterwards. I dried my hair and did all that I needed to do, then went back to my room.
        Lucas and I had a routine we would do at the end of the day where he'd call me after we were both done getting ready for bed. We have never broke this routine.
     So about at 8:50PM he had called me, and we talked for a few hours. "I love you," I grinned, "see you in four days."
"I love you too, goodnight." He hangs up. I turn off my phone and lights so I can sleep.
      Three days rolled around and I couldn't be more excited to see Lucas. "One more day," I think to myself. I get up out of bed and get ready for the day. Today I was going to the fair with my best friend, Chloe. She's been there for me through everything and I love her a lot.
      I'm done getting ready and it's almost time to go. I text Chloe to ask if she's ready.
                        TEXT MESSAGE
ME: are you ready yet?

CHLOE: yeah, I'll come pick you up now.

ME: kk, see you soon! xx

       She didn't live that far from me so it didn't take only but a few minutes. "Hey chloe!"
"Hey, I missed you!"
"I missed you too, how are you?" I ask.
"I'm good! We probably should get going now, though." She replies. I nod my head.
         We're there after twenty-five minutes. I see the roller coasters and I immediately run to them, dragging Chloe with me. "Ah, Nicole!" She pulls back, "You know I'm scared of these!"
"You'll know it'll be fun," I encouraged, "you'll want to go again after."
"Okay," she nods, "I'll guess I go."
        We rode it, and as soon as we got off, Chloe says, "I want to go again!" I knew she was going to say that so I just laughed. We continued to have fun then she dropped me back at home. "This was fun."
"Sure was, love you!" She waves as I walk to my door. "Love you!" I go inside, exhausted.
"One more day," I lay down, "one more day."
