It was towards the end of September now, Luke was coming towards the end of his first year of college, his summer starting at the start of December. Whereas in England, Reece was at the beginning of his school year, now being in university and away from home. But their relationship was going three months strong.

Luke woke up on a Thursday for college at seven, he blinked his eyes open before reaching for his phone and turning his alarm off. He yawned as he squinted at the screen, seeing some notifications from Instagram and then a bunch of messages from Reece.

Luke swiped on the message, typing in his password before reading through Reece's messages.

Reecey poo: Happy three months pretty boy!!

Reecey poo: Wait you're asleep still why do I always do this

Reecey poo: Oh well you can wake up to this message and tell me how amazing I am

Reecey poo: We've been together three months now, and we've been friends for nine months (might I point out you can have a baby in that time) and you're the prettiest, most talented, most creative, most kind person I've ever had the pleasure of knowing and the day I get to see you in person I'm going to kiss you so bloody hard you won't know what hit you. I fucking adore you Luke and I hope we're together for many more months xx

Luke smiled to himself, sitting up and moving his pillow behind his head and leaning back. He had the cutest boyfriend alive.

Lukey poo: You're so fucking cute this is so sweet

It seemed that Reece was awake and on his phone as he replied instantly.

Reecey poo: Check your Facebook and my personal insta too!!

Luke bit his lip, "Jesus Christ, what did he do?"

Luke went to Facebook first, he found Reece's message which was very long with a photo and was posted at exactly midnight in Luke's time zone so he got the day exactly right. The photo was a FaceTime of Luke who was being cute with Reece smiling fondly in the corner, like read through the long paragraph which had ended with the words: I love you.

Luke quickly checked Reece's personal Instagram, where he got fewer likes and had fewer followers than his supernatural account. The post was the same with the same photo and caption but Luke couldn't get his head around the words: I love you.

Reece loved him. Reece fucking Grean loved him.

Luke liked the two posts and comments some emojis before he went back to his conversation with Reece.

Lukey poo: so you love me?

Reecey poo: yes, so fucking much

Lukey poo: fuck you I love you too

Reecey poo: cool great now what? We've reached the peak of our relationship

Lukey poo: you were so cute a second ago what just happened
