"Mateo I told you word for word. Don't. Eat. My. Food. And what did you go and do? YOU ATE MY FOOD!"

"I didn't eat it!

"MATEO I CAN SEE YOU EATING IT RIGHT NOW!" I swear my brother will be the death of me. Whatever I tell him goes in one ear and comes out the other. Gosh he's so annoying. He was ready to say something else to me when my phone started to ring. I looked at my screen and saw Joel's name pop up. YAY!

"Oh look its Joel, someone who I actually wanna talk to and who DOESN'T eat MY food!" I yelled as I ran up the stairs and into my room.

"Hi this is Pizza Hut how may I help you?" Every time I did this he would freak and actually think he accidentally called Pizza Hut. Lol I'm so mean.

"Uuuh oh yes I would like a large cheese pizza" Wtf does he actually think this is Pizza Hut?

"Delivery or take out?"

"Delivery"

"Is that going to be all for you sir?"

"Actually I would also like Fatima Ramos"

"Oh I'm sorry sir but it seems like she isn't on the menu" we both laughed at how stupid we were being. Like seriously who does that?

"Anyways so how's it going over there? Lots of hard work?" I asked him as I fell back on my bed.

"You can't even imagine, I'm so tired. We're on break so I decided to call you because I missed the sound of your voice" My heart skipped a beat at his cute words. Good thing he can't see me blushing right now.

"If it makes you feel any better, tomorrow is my first day of Junior year. I DON'T WANNA"

"Oh come on it won't be bad, you can text me in between classes"

"I have a better idea! I don't go to school and then I can text you aaaall day"

"As nice as that sounds, NO. C'mon Fatima don't be upset. I know for a fact that you have lots of friends because you're always getting invited to hang out"

"I wouldn't call them friends just acquaintances"

"You always have really good grades, I know this because Yoandri always talks about how good you are in school because you want to make your parents proud. You don't even have to wake up that early"

"You're telling me 6 in the freaking morning is not early to you?! Gosh I'm already tearing up thinkin about it" We chatted a while longer before he had to go, sadly. If you were to ask me how our long distance relationship was going, I would probably say "good, I think". For the most part we were the same. We called each other at least once a day, twice if we were lucky. When we talked it didn't feel like he was thousands of miles away, it felt like he was close to me. But there are times where we're both so distant. He's either too busy to talk, or has to go rehearse, or is going out with his friends or something. I'm not gonna lie, I was worried about our relationship. Distance changes everything. Sometimes I feel like maybe we should take a break and figure out what it is that we really want, because the last thing that I want to do is get in the way of his dream and his career. But certain things like his goodnight and good morning texts, the way he calls me when he's excited about something, the little things. Those are the things that make me forget that he far away and make me want to work on this relationship.
