journey through the distance

kik start

Despite the huge distance they stayed talking. From early july to late august they talked everyday as good friends. but after all that time and sharing secrets so many secrets. they both wanted more. friendship wasn't enough for them their souls connected like two people who love each other and they couldn't hide it. he was too shy to ask her out directly so he started leaving little hints like "how haven't you had loads of boyfriends your like the perfect girl!" Arthur also flirted with leslie a lot , which she liked.Leslie then started picking up on his hints but didn't think that he would ever go out with a girl like her.

its the 22nd of august and like always arthur and leslie are talking

it was evening time on a warm summers day.The sky warring those who walked beneath it i didn't go out much due to the lack of confidence I had but I still enjoyed hearing kids play in the distance. It would remind me of when i was a young boy playing sticks and rocks using them as guns and grenades.I sat by the window with it slightly opened to have a small breeze wonder through.There was another reason why I didn't go out. I wanted to talk to her. it seemed like just another normal day. we were talking

theres a message on my phone waiting to be sent , ive never dreamed of this day coming is this even the right thing to do?. leslie sends the message and panics as he reads on the screen "hey Arthur um I was wondering if you would go out with me?....like a ldr".my head started spinning and my heart pounding at the speed of a car fighting to win a race. My stomach tied into knots as i waited for his response. I kept saying over and over in my head that he would never say yes to me he would most likely say no or a simple "sorry but i only see you as a friend" and ruin our friendship . But as I read his response my face lit up he responded with a simple yet amazing word ...."yes"

it seemed like just another normal day talking. we were messing around , laughing and making silly jokes . I felt a comfort I had not had the pleasure of feeling in the entire 14 years id been alive when I talked to her . she was just like me. she loved to laugh and be stupid but also also had a soft and caring side . I couldn't help but love her. I know love is said a lot but really I meant it. I loved her!. but I couldn't tell her, i couldn't ask her out.

evening of when leslie asked him out

A few hours into talking the chat turned serious. not a bad serious but the type where you aren't joking. we talked about us and whether long distance would work. I had so many thoughts in my head "there's no way this will work" and "what if we break up? I don't wanna loose her" I was angry about how attached id gotten to a girl more than 4000 miles away. I thought wed have to stop talking , it was the only way. then out of no where she asked me , despite her fears of rejection she asked me out. I didn't know what to feel. On one hand shed done it the girl of my dreams had asked me , I could finally call her mine and we could be together, but on the other i wouldn't get to meet her for more than a year. I had a decision to make. ha no i didn't I knew what I had to do. fuck my doubts fuck feeling bad about it I LOVE this girl. we were meant to be. I said yes!
