As excited as I was to meet my sailor I did not want to get off that plane, I was thinking about throwing up the butterflies from my stomach. I knew logically I had to get off the plane, I just wanted those first 5 seconds to be over...I stepped into the airport and looked for David, scared out of my mind. I fix my shirt, black, skulls, nautical stars, low V neck. I gave David the same shirt for his birthday last year, he's going to be wearing it today.
I tell myself I look good, perfect red nails, low cut shirt shows my neck off nicely, the jeans make my ass look good, the sun shows off my wavy red hair, big green eyes shining. I ignore the sweat and the nausea.
I hold my bag and look around the airport...
OMG
there he is...
my sailor,
my boo,
David.
He has a huge smile and he's wearing the shirt I gave him. His baseball hat is backwards and he has black shorts on. He's so freakin hot. I can feel my face turn red and I smile uncontrolably.
He walks toward me and gives me a twirling hug and I feel my feet leave the ground for a minute. He sets me down and we smile at eachother, I look into those big blue eyes..."hi boo" he says, and in this moment I know...
This is where I am supposed to be.
The world turned upside down.
Everything around us has fallen away.
Time has stopped.
Songs play in my head.
My heart is flying.
That's the way it started...
