I had done this about a million times with, my socks, my jeans, my leggings, my dresses, and now my shirts. And yet, I can never get tired of it, the excitement is too much. I'm going to see Finn!

   I glance down at the last text Finn had sent me and smile.

Frogo<3:

I can't wait to see you my Angel! Soon we will be together!! Ilyy <3 Remember, text me when your plane has landed.


Me:

I love you too babe! I'll see you soon silly goose, and yes, I'll text you the minute I'm in Seattle and the minute we take off, Ily<3

   I smile again, shutting my phone off and hurriedly zipping my suitcase, grabbing the bag that I had packed beforehand that was filled with entertainment for the long flight to Seattle. An empty notebook, three sets of pens, a book, my headphones, and cards.

   I quickly head to my car, stuffing my suitcase in the boot of my car and then starting the engine as soon as my seatbelt was secured around my waist and over my body.

   I wheel in my suitcase, taking in the airport, and all around me. The feeling of excitement and happiness is swirling around inside me. I focus on where I need to be, checking my flight and my gate before hurrying for the elevator. I press the button, waiting for it shortly. The door slides open and I step in, immediately met with the cool air of the elevator.

   I tap my foot impatiently, waiting for the elevator to reach my floor. I pull my phone out of my pocket and check if there are any new notifications. I smile a little, imagining Finn pacing up and down the floor of the Seattle airport. I knew he would be waiting for me, even though it would only be hours and hours before I even reach Seattle. I imagine running into his arms and hugging him for the first time in forever.

   We had face timed and texted and called, but it wasn't the same. We reminded each other every day that we missed each other and couldn't wait until we were with each other again. I craved his kisses, his hugs, and everything we shared together. I wanted to spend my nights with him, staying up and talking way past midnight like we always did. I couldn't wait to meet the new friends he made and the people he talked about so much on our long calls. And most of all I just wanted to see him. I just wanted to be in his arms. I had missed him way too much and it had only been a month since we last saw each other in person.

   The elevator dings, doors sliding open and I tuck my phone away in my pocket, relieved there were no worried text messages from Finn. Everything was going smoothly so far.

   I jump slightly as my phone starts to vibrate in my back pocket, alerting me that someone was calling me. I had already gotten through security checks and normal airport lines and queues and I was finally about to board my plane, waiting in the last line to hand in my ticket and find my seat.

   I take my phone out of my pocket, already knowing who was on the other end of the call. I click accept.

   "Hey love, I'm just about to board my plane so I don't have much time to talk."

   "Hi my Angel, that's very good news, I just wanted to call to make sure there were no setbacks?"

   "No, no, everything's going smoothly, the landing should be on time as expected."
