Well, I made it back to New York. It took me nearly a day of traveling, but I'm finally back home on the couch with Rukia by my side typing all of this out.
As everyone who knows me is aware of, I just spent the week with my girlfriend I flew out of Newark airport last Saturday afternoon after a night of sleeping over my mom's apartment in New Jersey. I got so nervous that I couldn't eat, I was shaking, couldn't sleep...the works. But as soon as I got to the airport I was able to navigate around and I felt fine. A really nice lady helped me on the flight too ^^
The plane was fuckin tiny. It was honestly the width of two cars side by side. It only seated maybe 40 passengers...I felt like there wasn't anything separating me from the sky. I couldn't look out the window, so I just listened to my music and spoke to the nice family beside me. The father was a pilot, so that comforted me a lot when the plane made a funny noise and I asked if everything was alright ^^'
When I got to the airport I was promptly tackled by my honey. Seriously, I didn't even see her coming. It was that fast. She hugged me so tightly and everything seemed to just stop. I've never felt more complete than when I was in her arms...anyway, we lugged my crap to the car, drove nearly 2 hours, and got back to her house. Cuujyou didn't like me at first. He growled T___T but he got used to me the next day.
I woke up the next morning feeling sick. My mom said it's cause of allergies, but my stomach was all whacked, so I took pepto and lounged on Dougy's bed. Normally I'd be freaking the fuck out, but since I was with her I felt perfectly fine.
Anyway, the rest of the trip was filled with us being goofballs, watching Saiyuki and Gravitation, being on the computer, cosplaying at home and at Walmart, meeting Dougy's friends, watching an airshow, going to the mall, being kidnapped by Dougy's mom's friend who drove really really fast, and meeting her aunt, uncle, and grandpa. All of her family kept telling me I was really nice and pretty O//w//O I honestly didn't know what to say. Everyone was so friendly! I had so much fun, even if we weren't doing anything at all. Just being with Dougy was heaven. But I won't go into details with that ~w^
On the final day we rented a room at the Hampton Inn. By that time we were both really sobby and clinging to one another. That night I broke down crying. Neither of us knew why we were so upset, since it isn't like we'll never see each other again...we just didn't want to be separated again. I wish I could have spent more time with Dougy alone on that last day, but it was what it was...I woke up at 4:40 am the next morning, got ready, and we headed off to the airport which wasn't far away. I got my ticket, checked my bag, and finally had to say goodbye. I didn't know what to do...I wanted so badly to be able to give her one last kiss, but we were in public, so I settled for a kiss on the cheek and a tight hug. I'll never forget our first and last kisses though...never ever.
I've been traveling all day today and I'm exhausted, but I'm also restless. It feels like I left part of myself in Oklahoma. I know I won't ever feel the same until I'm back in her arms. So, I guess that means we'll have to start planning for the next trip as soon as we can.
Well...that's about it. I made some memories that I'll cherish more than anything in the world, and I know I've got someone waiting for me halfway across the US holding onto the other half of my heart. Someday we'll be together forever...
