Liza's pov
"I just want to see you so bad" David said sadly through FaceTime "I know I want to see you too, I want to be able to hold your hand, and hug you and kiss you" I replied "I'd do anything to kiss you" he replied, I smiled at the thought of kissing, hugging him or having literally any form of physical contact with him, but it soon made me kind of sad that I didn't know when that would ever happen "hey, what's up?" He asked noticing me looking a little sad "I just want to see you so so bad, the thought of not knowing when we will meet each other in person is breaking me" I said to him "Aw baby, don't get upset about it. I love you so much" he said to me "I love you" I replied "it'll be soon baby, we'll find time" he said "I hope so" I replied.

It's now been six months, we've been 'dating' for six months, calling, Skyping and texting every day but we still haven't met. He lives in Chicago and I live in Houston. I just can't bare it anymore. I hate being able to say I have a boyfriend but being unable to cuddle him, kiss him, fall asleep next to him and do everything we should be able to but can't. "Fuck it" I said aloud to myself, I looked at plane tickets and saw one to Chicago for tonight which is eight hours away, I booked it without thinking twice before packing up a bag, I packed enough clothes for a week. I only bought a one way ticket since it was all I could get for any time soon, I then looked at hotels, I found a relatively cheap one and booked it, also for a week, not knowing what I was going to do. It soon got to a couple hours before my flight so I left and ubered to the airport before checking in and going through baggage, as I waited David texted me
'Hey baby can you FaceTime?' He texted
'I'm really sorry baby but I'm out, I promise I'll speak to you tonight' I replied 'okay, I love you' he said 'love you too' I replied.
I soon got on my flight and I slept most of it before arriving in Chicago. As soon as I landed I ubered again to my hotel and checked in, I went up to my room and FaceTimed David. "Hey baby, I missed seeing your cute little face" he said smiling "you can see my face in real person if you want" I replied smiling "I wish baby, one day I'll fly over to Houston" he said "why wait until you go to Houston?" I said smirking yet smiling too because if the excitement "wait, are you here?" He asked, I nodded and he smiled so big, I'll text you the address of the hotel and you can come" I told him, he nodded and he packed his bag before coming here. As excited as I was, I'm so so nervous, what if he doesn't like me in person? What if I'm not pretty enough? I try to stop myself knowing David doesn't care about those things but they are so prominent in the back of my mind. I sat on my bed and thought for so long, I of course didn't realise how long it was until I got the 'I'm here' text. I took a deep breath and made sure I looked as close to perfect as possible before I opened the door.

There he was. David dobrik. He was so perfect in every way "hey baby" he said smiling, I wrapped my arms around his neck and he put his around my waist, I did cry a little into his shoulder out of happiness but that doesn't matter. We pulled away and he looked at me "Liza you are so beautiful, I already knew you were but seeing you in person is just so crazy, how are you mine?" He asked, making me smile, I took his hand and we sat on my bed. We mostly talked, for hours, we couldn't get ourselves away from each other, we were always touching in some way, either holding hands, or cuddling. "Baby, can I kiss you?" David asked as we cuddled "of course" I replied turning and pressing my lips to his, it was the best feeling in the world, it felt so perfect and pure and so so good, we just sat on the hotel room bed, making out and I loved every minute of it, one we broke apart we both rested our heads together "I love you so so much" he said to me, I teared
up again, hearing him say that in person was amazing "baby don't cry" he laughed as he kissed my head "I'm sorry, I've never felt this happy in all of my life, I love you so much" I said as the tears fell down my face as I also laughed at myself, he pulled me into a hug and held me super tight "i am never ever not seeing you for six months ever again" he said to me "ditto, I mean we are both 20, we could move in together or something" I suggested "I love that idea but I think first we should stay here together for this week, I think we should go slow, even though I'm so so sure and set on you, I don't want to rush it and mess things up" he said "I completely agree" I replied smiling "baby this is going to be the best" he said kissing me again, making me smile "I know" I replied.

"I don't want to go" I said looking up at the doors of the airport in David's arms "shhh, we will find time like this again soon I promise" he said to me "I'm going to miss you so much" I said to him "me too, I'm going to miss your perfect smile, your beautiful face, your jokes, your kisses, your hugs, everything" he said to me, we kissed once more before I had to go "I love you, I promise I'll see you as soon as possible" he said to me "I love you" I replied, we kissed once more before I had to tear myself away from him. God I love him, and somehow I already miss him.

Two years. Two years of meeting up in that very hotel that we met in the first time. We booked in every month just for a weekend or longer if we could and now here we are, moving in together. We bought an apartment and today is the day we get to start living with each other. "Is that everything?" David asked, looking at the pile of boxes in front of us "I think so" i replied "I'm so happy" he said putting his arms around my waist and kissing me "me too, I get to fall asleep and wake up next to my favourite person in the world every day" I said to him "oh baby there isn't going to be much sleeping" he said winking and falsely biting his lip "okay that was gross" I replied laughing "yeah I know, just felt like saying a line that would be written in some movie or fan fiction or something" he laughed "I literally love you so much" I said kissing him again "I love you too" he replied smiling goofily. I'm so happy I get to live with this man. I'm the luckiest girl alive.

"And finally we're back to the living room" David said holding our one day old daughter in his arms, he'd given her a 'house tour' whilst I was laying on the couch still in complete pain. "I'm obsessed with you two" I said smiling at the sight of my two favorite people, he smiled and kissed her head "you are the best thing I've ever gotten Ember" he said to her "well maybe your mommy comes pretty close second" he said smiling over to me "remember that week, four years ago, when we met for the first time" I said as he came over and sat down next to me with Ember in his arms "yeah, it was the best" I replied smiling and resting my head on his shoulder "I'm so happy we got through the distance, I honestly don't know what I would do without my two favorite girls" he said "me too, I love you both beyond words" I said admiring them again, I love the way he looks at her it absolutely makes my heart burst. "How are you feeling?" David asked putting his free arm around me and cuddling me "it still hurts a hella lot but she's worth it, seeing you two together is the best feeling in the world" I replied "I love you" he said "I love you too" I replied. Thank god for us beating distance.

Hey guys! A lot is going on in the world right now, I just want to say;
BLACK LIVES MATTER.
We need to do everything in our power to get this across, it's shocking that black people still face racism to this day and I absolutely hate the fact that we live in a world with so much advancement and so much technology yet still not equal rights for all races. Please please please sign petitions, share, inform yourself and your family, learn about black history and make a difference. Also if you're protesting please stay safe and make sure to be really really careful out there whilst spreading the word. You're all amazing ❤️
