Here

    I have never been more impatient in my entire life than that day at the airport. Waiting for one of my most precious people to come out of those sliding doors. After a while I started to worry, it's been 15 minutes, she hasn't come out ye. Is she ok? Did she get lost? Did she make it to her flight in Copenhagen? I forced myself to calm down and rooted myself to the floor. She is alright. Three planes landed in close secession, so she's most likely waiting for her luggage. That didn't keep me from holding my breath every time those doors opened, zooming in and looking for her when a crowed of people excited. Finally after waiting 20 minutes, she appeared in all her exhausted glory. I ran over to her completely over joyed and gave her a hug. The strawberry haired girl looked at me and spoke 'Feed me, connect me to internet and let me sleep.'This is a completely natural reaction to overseas flights and everything was full filled in due time.  
    I couldn't stop looking at her. Over the next two days I was in this state of awe and disbelief. Larkspur was here. She was staying at my home and living here for a whole month. It's a first really, because I'm the one that usually comes to america, but this time she was here and my mind just couldn't seem to comprehend it. I still stare at her just to make sure she's actually here and this isn't all some amazingly realistic dream. 
    It's even stranger when Aster comes over and my mind just completely explodes. At first it's filled with nerves. The two have never met before and I really hope they get along. My worries are ceased immediately, because after a few moments Larkspur seems to take a liking to him immediately. I'm unsure of Aster's opinion, since he has to speak in english and he's not a fan of actual work, but after a while the two are teaming up and teasing me. Honestly it's a strange feeling, being over joyed because two of your favorite people are together and getting along, but at the same time you regret this decision of ever letting the two get to know each other. Still I couldn't help, but stare at this miracle before me. 
    It's strange having Larkspur here, yet I'm so happy. I've laughed and smiled more these past five day than I have in the past year. Despite the fact that I'm not in the best place emotionally at the moment, waiting for that final entrance letter that says 'fuck off we don't want you in our school.' Thank's to her I can fall asleep at night. It's thanks to her being here that I feel more centered at home and just a bit happier. I really wish there wasn't an ocean in between us. 
It doesn't matter, I will continue to make memories with her until I am no longer able. 
Maybe we'll see you around
