Im drifting off finally when my phone ring startles me awake. I check the click and see that it's 4:35am.

I feel relieved when I see shawns name pop up on my screen.

"Hey, baby." He says, and my heart flutters a bit. "I'm so sorry. I got caught up there at the party and I just got back to my hotel room. Are you upset?"

"I don't know. It's almost 5 in the morning shawn!"

"I completely forgot about the time difference. Want me to FaceTime you?"

"It's...Fine. Sure, FaceTime me."

As I see his face pop up on my screen I realize how much I already miss him.

"I'm sorry we got into that argument earlier." He blurts out. "I didn't mean it, honestly I didn't. I was just overwhelmed at the moment. Everything was super stressful the second i got here and I took it out on you."

"It's okay, shawn, i swear." My voice hitches a little as I speak.

"No, it's not. You're my girlfriend. I should have put you before a stupid party. Seeing your face over the phone while im here is way more important than the stupid things going to parties will get me."

I smile a little.

"You should probably go to bed, huh." He says, frowning a bit.

"I'm fine, shawn. I fell asleep earlier because you hadn't called. I can talk for a while longer."

I can tell he feels guilty the second the words leave my mouth.

He sighs. "I'm a horrible boyfriend."

"No you aren't! I didn't mean to guilt you, I was just saying what happened."

"Okay. Hey, maybe we should make a plan for the rest of the time im here. How about I call you 8 pm pacific time every night? And I FaceTime you every other night at 10 pm pacific time? That works better for me than the original times. That okay?" He asks, putting the phone down against the wall so I can see his room and taking off his shoes.

"8 and 10? Sure. What if you have a meeting or something runs late?"

"I'll text you, okay? I won't forget again."

"I miss you." I blurt out, "I know you've only been gone for like a day but it's so weird without you here."

"I miss you too, Aubrey. I honestly wish I could come back just to see you." Shawn picks his phone up again.

"Just a few more weeks." I tell him, yawning.

"Babe, go to bed."

"No, I wanna talk to you!"

"Aubrey. It's 5am for you and you need sleep. There's school the day after today."

"Fine. I'll go to bed."

"Good girl. You'll thank me later."

"Hell no I won't. Depriving me of time with my boyfriend."

"I'm calling you tomorrow!" Shawn laughs softly. "Okay, now go to sleep. I love you."

"I love you too."

I hang up the FaceTime call and try to fall back asleep.

He didn't break his promise. Yet.
