So Much More | o.w.

   "I just miss you, y'know." I said to Otto. His voice came through the phone as he smiled, "I know, love. I miss you too." He frowned a little "At least I get to hear your voice and see your face still. I'll forever thank modern technology for FaceTime." Otto chuckles at my comment. "We gotta go one now but I love you and remember, theres only two weeks left of tour." Otto smiled, blowing a kiss at his phone and ending the videocall. I sigh and roll over on my bed, pulling the dog to my right onto my chest. "Wilson, you're the only one keeping me company now." I ruffle his brown, shaggy fur and kiss his head. Turning out the light on the bedside table and curling into my bed, I grab Otto's pillow and smile sadly. The only thing running through my mind is getting on that bus tomorrow and going to surprise Otto at his concert. 

        I turn my four A.M. alarm off and pull back the covers. "This is for Otto, this is for Otto." I continue to repeat, coaxing myself out of bed. I don't bother getting dressed, staying in my purple tank top and grey sweats, only bothering with slipping on my Converse. I pull on one of Otto's hoodies and grab my suitcase full of clothes for the next two weeks. I shoot a quick text to Geoff, "Just left the house. Thanks again! xx" I send it and lock the front door. My Uber is out by the gate, waiting to take me to the bus station.

     Setting my stuff next to me, I look down at my phone. "Can't wait to see you! You're welcome!" Geoff's message pops up and I swipe it away with a giddy feeling. I can't be any happier about seeing Otto. I've missed him so much, it feels like forever since I've hugged him last. "Vacation?" My driver asks, pulling me from my thoughts. I look up and smile, "I'm going to see my boyfriend. He's been away for a while working." I tell him. "Ohhhhh, have a good time." He says, pulling up to the station. "Thank you." I tell him and slip from the car. 

    I sit down, put my suitcase by my feet and put my earbuds in as the bus begins to move. I gaze out the window as the bus makes it's two hour trip from Texas to New Mexico. I rest my head against the back of the seat and doze off for a while. When I wake, we're passing the Welcome to New Mexico sign. I sigh as I look down at my phone, reading Otto's good morning text and smiling. It's currently almost seven in the morning and I have to make it to the venue by ten. We pull into the New Mexico bus station and I text Geoff, telling him I'm there. A quick, "On my way," pops onto my screen. I smile as my heart beats a bit faster just thinking of surprising Otto.

    I see a silver car pull up and the back window rolls down to reveal Geoff. He smiles and waves me over. I laugh a bit and gather my things, making my way over to the car. "Does he have any clue yet?" I ask as we pull away from a hug, "not even a little." Geoff laughs as he texts Awsten that we're heading their way. I smile widely as we get closer and closer to where their bus is parked. "I'm so excited, Geoff! Thank you for setting this up." I say, thanking him for the millionth time. "You're welcome, I can tell you both need this." Geoff says as the car comes to a stop, us getting out. Geoff grabs my suitcase and I sling my messenger purse over my body, tucking my phone in my back pocket. 

    As Geoff and I are getting closer to their bus, the door swings open and Otto walks off, talking with Awsten and not paying attention. Awsten looks over and sees us, smiling he pulls Otto so his back is to us. I smile wider as I get close enough to touch him, "I don't know, I was just thinking tha- oh my god," Otto breathes out as I hug him from behind. I let go and he turns around, pulling my to his chest. "I can't believe you're here. Wait, how  are you here?" He asks, pulling away from me and holding my shoulders. "Geoff set it up, actually." I jabbed a thumb behind me at Geoff, Otto smiles. "Thanks man." He says before hugging me again.

    I pull back this time and look up to his brown eyes, smiling like an idiot. I grab his face and press my lips to his softly for a while before pulling away for air. "I've missed you so much." Otto says, breathlessly with his forehead pressed against mine. "I've miss you so much more." I told him, pecking his lips again as I pull away completely, acknowledging the other people that are still around us. "You kids go have some fun, we can do without you in soundcheck." Awsten tells us, waving his hands about. Otto and I laugh as we shake out heads and walk in a different direction, hands interlaced.
