After the camping trip James and I tried to plan for him to come for Halloween. Because Morgan and Melissa was throwing a party. We couldn't pull it off, so we agreed for Christmas. We talked about moving me out to Idaho a lot. Before I could do that they had to meet James first. 353Please respect copyright.PENANAJfi7ONzfwG
My family gets together for Christmas, we figured that it would be a good idea to meet everyone. I had bought a plane ticket for him to be in Jersey for two weeks. We were counting down the days for him to come. It was the only thing I kept talking about. I couldn't wait for going on dates with him. During the camping trip we couldn't go on dates, we hardly had a day together. James and Paul had like twelve hour layovers, that cut the time together. 353Please respect copyright.PENANAdZK9QdRWBz
So we were very excited to get two weeks together. I still had to work, but I changed my hours to go in earlier and leave earlier. I had brought the tickets so he was also here for our six month anniversary. 353Please respect copyright.PENANAkDDPx11oyP
He arrived on December 18 or 19 2018, his plane got delayed. He was supposed to come down that night. When he got off the plane it was too late. So instead of taking the train in Newark our friend dropped him off at his sister Morgan's in Cranford that was fifteen minutes away. So he took the train in the early morning to Point Pleasant. There was a time he could have took and been in Brick before I had to go to work. The thing is he took the wrong train, so he came in early afternoon. I was working and he came on Tuesday so my parents picked him up in Point Pleasant train station. They dropped him off at pop's house that's down the street, I had to wait until my four o'clock lunch to see him. I was so excited to see him my anxiety was going. Some day shift was leaving at four, and James was waiting for me outside. My coworkers were confused at first, then they put two and two together. They asked him if he was Idaho and he tells them yeah. They come back in all excited to tell me Idaho is here. I couldn't wait to on lunch. I go and clock out for lunch, I remember running into his arms. I felt whole again. I never been so happy.353Please respect copyright.PENANAwcQxUnb5Y0
For my lunch break we walked to Dunkin Donut that's next door to my job. I ordered my usual plain bagel with butter less spread. It didn't feel real at first, I couldn't believe he was sitting across of me. We both couldn't stop smiling. Still thinking about it now makes me smile. I remember everything like it happened yesterday. 353Please respect copyright.PENANAfHZT9uwuss
My first date with him, was at the bowling ally in Point Pleasant, New Jersey. We had drinks and played three games. He won two and I won one. We had so much fun, we took pictures with my polaroid that night. Started to make a scrapbook with him. 353Please respect copyright.PENANArwJrdiA95U
My second date was the movies we saw Wreck-it Ralph 2 Breaks the Internet. I kept our tickets and put it next to the pictures we took in our book. It became our movie, we watched it again on our second Valentines day.353Please respect copyright.PENANA5dxS35pAxq
Christmas came rather quickly, it was fun kind of long. Lots of people to see, we were both nervous. He was meeting my family. The day after Christmas sucked I had to go back to work. We also drank a lot and stayed up late. I didn't want to go to work that day. But not as much I didn't want to go on New Years Eve. That day was the worst. He stayed up late the night before it was his last night in Jersey. His plane was coming in at 6am we were both running on like two hours of sleep. Because our friend had a fit and I ended up only getting two hours. I also had to go on a two hour train ride back to brick. I was up north in Cranford, where Morgan lives. I had a anxiety attack leaving him there. I wanted him to stay so bad. Just thinking about it makes my heart hurt. I went to work that day running on two hours of sleep. It was the worst New Years Eve.353Please respect copyright.PENANAco8z13yLAh
We had to wait eight months for me to move to Idaho. It was the longest eight months of my life.
