seven weeks in heaven

my boyfriend was in la for a semester-long internship and told me on feb 13 that he might be staying there (i live in nyc). it almost broke us up on valentine’s day - he wanted to keep up long distance no matter what, but LDR no end in sight was a dealbreaker for me, and i was heartbroken. i decided to stick it out for a few more months until it was for sure. in that time, corona happened, his work went remote, school housing shut down, and he flew home to quarantine with his family. because i am also spending this time with my parents, we are now only a few hours’ drive from each other. i hate myself for it but i’m so fucking happy. we had facetime sex in the bathroom. i’m in love
