Skype at 10:30pm Last Night

Last night Kelly stayed over at his friend Kenney's house and I was able to Skype with them! It made me so incredibly happy to see Kelly beaming when my camera first loaded and displayed me sitting on my bed, smiling back at him. The smile on his face was huge and it didn't leave his pretty face for the first twenty minutes of the Skype call.

I really, really enjoyed seeing and talking to both Kelly and Kenney. It had been a long time since Kenney and I caught up over Skype and to see my baby sitting next to him made it all the better. However, my connection grew worse as the conversation wore on, and it thoroughly sucked to watch them lag and hear every third word either of them said. I got off my Skype call with Kenney a little while after Kel went to bed; the connection was so bad and I was too tired to deal with the incessant lag and having to ask "What?" every twenty seconds.

A few minutes after Kelly went to bed he sent me a text that reads:

"That iam. I feel like Kenney is jealous of u bc u have me. And I like that, seeing u just reminded me how truly lucky iam to be awith a wonderfully beautiful girl like u. I love you very much grace elaine torgeson, im glad u chose me :)"

I read it while on webcam with Kenney, and it was really difficult to hide my smile. I now have that text locked to my phone; it actually prevented me from sleeping, as all I could do was reread it a couple hundred times before falling asleep. Reading that coupled with seeing his beautiful face made me miss him more than I have this entire trip.
*Side note: Kenney is a bit jealous, I think, because I'm dating Kelly. He's gay and Kelly is exactly his type.

It was after midnight when I finally slid my laptop underneath my bed and crawled under the covers to go to bed. I layed there for over an hour, simply rereading his text and thinking about how amazing I'll feel when I see Kelly smiling at me from across the airport in eight days.
