PROMISE ?

After a couple of days Reece had to go. We both had lots of work to do. Though the child in me made it very difficult for him to go.

-REECE TRYING TO LEAVE-

"But whhhhhyyyy..." I complained like a child would to their mother.

"Because we both have work." He sounded like a disgruntled parent.

"BUUUUUTTTT REEEECCCCEEE." I complained again and hugged him as tight as I could.

He laughed and hugged me close.

"Listen...."

I looked him in the eye.

"If you let me leave now. Next time I will try to say longer."

That made the biggest grin spread across my face.

"Promise ?"

He smiled and said "Promise." 

"YAY !" I suddenly became very excited and hugged him even tighter.

He chuckled and kept hugging tightly.

-THE NEXT FEW DAYS-

The next few days at work went by like years. I loved my work but I missed Reece so much.

I pulled myself through the next few days until I had some kind of time off.

I planned on surprising Reece just like he did with me. He deserved a surprise.
