April 26th. That's the date I planned on getting plane tickets and flying to see Arthur for the weekend. I had no classes on the 26th -- which was a Friday -- so I'd be able to fly to Arthur's dorm and hang out with him all weekend. I was going to surprise him, but I slipped up in a phone call and now Arthur can't stop talking about seeing me.
"Aw, I can't wait, I can show you all the best places to go and you can bring your school work and work with me! We could go to the library and be that annoying couple that shares one book and--"
"Arthur!" I giggled, "breath, I don't need you passing out," I had brought the phone up to my face. We had both opted for voice call today because I had no classes today and I was in no way decent enough to talk to Arthur face to face. I would need a shower and a few SnapChat filters before talking to him, and today I just felt lazy.
Arthur had said that he had a lot of work he had to do while talking to me and he didn't -- and I quote -- 'want to get distracted by my pretty face'. His one statement made me blush all over. I was completely red and embarrassed and stuttered for the next few seconds of talking to him. How did he do that? How did he make me go from being okay to a completely blushy and flirty?
"Okay, sorry sorry! I'm just so excited to see you, and cuddle you," he laughed through the phone. I was beginning to grow very anxious for the trip -- I had never flown alone in my entire life! Yet here I was gladly offering to do it to see Arthur for a weekend trip. However, hearing Arthur talk about how much fun we were going to have made it seem all worth it. I looked down at my lecture notes and really didn't want to hang up on Arthur. However, if I didn't hang up on him I would be stuck up all night working on it and having to deal with grumpy Connor.
I brought this up to Arthur and started venting, "He's going to be all like 'Why is the light on? Can't you go to bed and do the work in the morning?'No, I can't Connor. Unlike some people, I sleep until the last minute. I don't wake up at 4 am to get my work done!" I ranted and took a deep breath.
"Really? I wake up around 5ish to get work done, I do get the urge to just crawl back to my bed," Arthur sighed, "but alas you are right, I should let you go do your work. And be nice to Connor he helped me out the other night with Evan, okay?"
I sighed, "Okay, but I'll still give him dirty looks if he listens to his music too loud,"
"Okay," Arthur laughed, "See you soon lovebug,"
I blushed, "Goo' bye," I hung up and looked back to my homework. As much as I loved Arthur, I hated when our conversations ended, because now I had to go back to my sad, overworked, Arthur-less world. I tried to push Arthur out of my mind -- a very hard thing to do, would not recommend -- and tried my best to concentrate and finish my work in time for tomorrows class.
It would be less than a week when I get to see Arthur in person.
