long distance lovers

when i met my significant other, there was an instant and indescribable bond. a week after we said 'i love you', lockdown measures were implemented and i had to fly home, 2000 miles away. we talked every single day, slept on the phone, and tried to not let the pain of being apart get to us. i finally flew back once the school year started. our reunion after nearly half a year was magical. we still fall asleep on the phone almost every night.
