Even when he’s gone, it’s like I can still feel his comfort around me. Even when we haven’t met yet, I still long for him. It’s comforting to know that, so far, we’re on the same page. I feel happy, loved, and wanted.

I’m trying not to be naïve and I’m trying not to get ahead of myself. After all, we haven’t met yet.

But I just feel so… fulfilled? I’m comforted anytime I receive a message from him, no matter how much later it is. I’m not worried about him, despite his dangerous job.

Maybe it’s just the honeymoon phase. Maybe right now, it’s just infatuation. But whatever it is, I hope it lasts. I hope it works out.
