It was the middle of August and you were at the airport waiting for your long term boyfriend, Michael. You two had been dating a little over 2 years and he had been away for almost 7 months on tour with One Direction while you had been attending meet ups and making videos. Of course, you were a Youtuber and everyone called you two their ‘OTP’ which you loved because you were so afraid that the fans would hate you two together when you two first told everyone, so when people told you that they loved you and you started becoming more and more popular, you were overwhelmed.

You were sat in the waiting area, checking your phone constantly to see if you had gotten any missed calls/texts. You sighed when you realized that you hadn’t. As you looked up from your phone to check the flight status, you saw a few girls whispering to themselves. They were obviously waiting for the boys to arrive back from their long journey home and had noticed you standing there. You wondered if they were a fan of you or just a fan of your boyfriend’s band but you just shrugged it off, thinking that if they knew who you were then it was okay regardless. Moments passed and you noticed them walking towards you, causing you to instantly put your phone into your pocket. “Hey Maria, can we get a photo with you? You’re so beautiful by the way” One of them said to you before smiling shyly. You smiled back before nodding and standing up. You posed for photos with the girls before sitting back down, them sitting beside you. You sat talking to them and time started to pass by quite quickly. “I love your hair, did you and Michael get matching hair colours?” You blushed slightly, knowing that what she was saying was true. You had been telling Michael that you wanted to change your hair colour as you were getting bored of having blonde hair with a blue dip dye and he had suggested getting galaxy purple hair. Of course, you thought it was an amazing idea, seeing as purple was your favourite colour, so that afternoon, you two had gone to a salon to get your hair done. Everyone had thought it was cute that you two had gotten matching hairstyles, although you had decided to go with a brown hair colour with galaxy purple dip dye. You didn’t know if you could handle having a full head of that colour. You nodded before giggling and they let out a “aww” between them. There was 4 girls talking to you and you felt special, although there were about 20 fans waiting at the airport altogether. You just couldn’t wait to be reunited with your galaxy haired boyfriend.

“Hey girls, do you want to be in one of my videos? I usually make one right about now to keep the fans updated”

They all agreed before fixing their hair and applying lipgloss. You pulled out your phone from your pocket, instantly opening the camera and switching it so it was facing you and the girls. You made sure they were ready to be filmed before pressing the record button.

“Hey guys, I’m at the airport waiting for Michael right now and I’m so excited. Hanging out with these amazing girls, say hey girls,” You faced the camera to them and they all said hey, at the same time before giggling. You smiled before facing the camera back to you. “I’m gonna do a twitcams tonight at 8:30pm so make sure you’re online. I hope you’re all doing good, love you.”

You pressed the stop button once you were done and instantly uploaded it to your vine channel, instantly seeing people liking and commenting on it. Everyone knew you two were dating so it wasn’t like you had to hide anything from your fans. Not that you would keep your feelings from them hidden anyway. Michael loved to be in your videos and join in with your twitcams which made you love him even more than you already did. You had brought along your bag that he had bought for you when you two were in Milan for your one year anniversary with you, but you had stuck some band patches and badges on there to make it your own. Looking over at the board, you saw Michael’s flight had landed and instantly felt butterflies in your stomach.

Half an hour had passed by and people started to trickle through the double doors, all wearing the same tired expression with the disgruntled appearance. Somewhere in the midst of the travellers was Michael, who looked the most awake and the most happy with that smile you’d grown to love, plastered on his face. His eyes found you at once, quickening his pace, weaving through the few people left standing around. Before you knew it he was standing in front of you, suitcase abandoned on the floor and his gathered you up in his arms and span you round as you giggled and embraced him back just as hard. “Hello stranger,” He said with a smirk, setting you back on your feet keeping both hands on your waist. “I missed you cupcake.” You said looking into his beautiful green eyes. He looked back at you with a mirrored intensity, smiling when your cheeks flushed pink. “I missed you more.” He said, before you could protest his brought his lips to yours and in that moment you were finally reunited.
