Reunited

People say long distance relationships don't work , but I say long distance creates more love, more attraction.The wait ,the excitement to meet that person . Especially when you know you're hours away to meet him . 5months and 11 days later I was finally going to see him in person.

When you leave a person and go away , the first thing you forget about them is the sound of their voice . But I never forgot the sound of your voice . Your voice echoed in my ears every day . Your voice played back every day in my head.I couldn't help but smile ,blush and imagine what you would say to me when you finally met me .I was lost in you,it felt like magic.

I have always lived in Hyderabad. I loved Hyderabad more than anything .But 6 months ago Dad had decided to kill the business and work for a private company in Bhopal . I was devastated. I was studying Chartered Accountancy,and I could do that from any part of the country.I had to leave Hyderabad with my family. I had to leave the city I loved. I had to leave my best friend .He was not only my best friend he was the guy I loved.

So when I cleared the first stage of being a CA , I convinced my parents to let me continue my studies in Hyderabad.

“Don't kid, Ash , I am not in the mood of jokes “ he said , when I told I'm coming to Hyderabad forever for him ,to stay with him ,to take our relationship to the next step.

Now, I was an hour away from him.Bhopal to Hyderabad train journey was 17 hours and I looked like a mess.I never cared for my looks .Today, I was weirdly conscious. I worked hard to put my messy hair into a ponytail, neat and appropriate,in the tiny bathroom ,but my hair just wasn't on my side. Irritated,I left the idea of the ponytail and let them open. I convinced myself that he wouldn't judge,especially on how my hair looked. That's when I got his text - At the station, baby .. Waiting for u :*

Damn it,I got a tingling feeling in my stomach. I read the text again and re-read it again and again and again.I did a small happy dance in that cramped space,balancing myself as the train was moving fast. Finally, satisfied with my look,I walked back to my seat. 45 minutes more to go. God, was the time moving slow.

I got a little worried that he had to wait for me that long at the station alone. I texted him -Sorry to keep u wait this long .

In less than a minute my phone buzzed with his name on the screen.Just the name made me smile again.His message said -Aren’t you worth the wait,baby.

I gave a out a little giggle (blushing) . When I looked around,people around me were staring at me, probably wondering why is she smiling and giggling so much . Embarrassed I got up with my phone and walked to the gate.Nobody could see me here ,I could smile and blush non-stop.

With moving train’s wind in my hair,the sun setting,and the colourful farms,I felt at peace.Like nothing could go wrong now, everything is awesome and beautiful.Life from tomorrow is going to be amazing.I couldn't be any happier.

My phone buzzed again with his text -Do you want to grab something to eat first or go straight to the apartment??

I had asked him to look for an apartment for me.”Though the place is small”, he had said, “but from my bedrooms balcony ,I have a clear view of your bedroom through your window.It's perfect baby I can see you whenever I want”

I said yes for the apartment immediately.

I thought may be some nights he could stay over at my place.We could cuddle after having a beautiful dinner. Talk all night.Then in the morning I would wake up before him and watch him sleep. Just like how they do in movies. Make him an amazing breakfast and spend the whole day together on bed.The thought sent me chills down my whole body.It was perfect.

Yes,let's eat something.. I'm hungry..Anyways u owe me like 200 dates - I replied to his text.

The apartment can wait food can’t. All the excitement had made me forget that I was hungry. Yesterday,mom was forcing me to take food with me for the journey, but I knew I couldn't eat anything until I saw him, so I told her not to pack.

I glanced at my watch, 10 minutes to go. I started to wonder what I was going to do when I saw him.How I was going to greet him,hug him ,or kiss him .I know I have said it a million times but I was definitely going to say that I loved him ,missed him and how much I longed for his touch.

When the train finally stopped on the station I got down with my luggage, pulling it aside and looking for him.My eyes were eagerly searching the crowd for him. There he was 20 feet away.My heart skipped a beat. His eyes met mine. I became paralyzed, mesmerized at the sight of his perfect fit 6 foot body. His green t-shirt complimented his beauty and his manliness.The world around me some how felt paused.He was walking towards me, without breaking the eye contact,as if he was gonna kiss the fuck out of me right there on the station platform.I was just standing there in awe and enjoying my view.He came close up to me and said “Hi”.

I swear,I could have kissed him right there at that moment.There was less than 15 inch gap between us. I was looking up at him.I could feel the heat between us. I could see him stopping himself from grabbing me. I realized I was smiling non stop and my cheeks had started to hurt. But I didn't care, I was a fool still looking into his eyes and smiling.

He took my fingers into his ,and said “Hi,love , You're staring” ,that's when I snapped out of it and said “So-sorry” exhaling “Hi!”.

He came onto me for a hug. He pulled me close to his chest(me being a foot shorter than him ,my head couldn't reach his shoulder),he was so warm.He smelled of soap and aftershave.God,I loved that combination.He moved his one hand in my hair and moved the over down my spine to my waist pulling me closer in. He exhaled loudly in relief and was clearly enjoying the moment.His heart was beating so hard. I wondered if he missed me as much I missed him. Soon we realizing that people are looking and whispering things.We pulled apart from each other.The look on his face said he wanted to hug me more.Nevertheless,he was smiling.

He held my hand, brought it to his lips and kissed it before saying “I missed you so much”.

“I love you” I said, “ and I missed you more”

He gave out a small laugh .He then bent down to my face such that our noses touched each other ,I could see the reflection of my eyes in his grey eyes .Grabbing onto my shoulders ,he said “Not possible,babe”

I smiled at his dominating nature and said “Let's go home ,I'll show you how it is obviously possible.”

He pulled back grinning and took my backpack off my shoulder, picked up my large suitcase and gestured for us to move.
