Falling asleep on the phone

When we're apart on tours and traveling, I feel empty and alone no matter how many people surround me. And then, I get to the bed and it's cold and also empty. I love it when you call so we can sleep at the same time. No matter how early or late it is for you, you'll always insist on accommodating my sleep schedule.

I wait until you're sleep so I can't hear your little mumbles as you rest. Sometimes, if I'm lucky, I hear my name slip from your lips. And whenever that happens, I smile so wide it makes my cheeks hurt. But I still smile. My favorite nights are when neither of us can sleep and someone breaks the silence, and we talk until the early hours of the day (or night).

When you're being cute and adorable, I like to screenshot the phone screen secretly. Even record you because when I miss you, I revisit them.
