Darcy/Fitz 3
Darcy pushed at her hair a little before settling back on her bed, pulling her laptop into her lap. It was almost time for Leo to call, and she didn’t want to miss it.
Skype was right in the center of her screen, and she opened it up and waited. Her work day was done, but she knew that Leo didn’t ever really get to say that. Sometimes he was late, but that was just sort of the way things went.
She twisted the rings on her finger as she waited, the green-stoned engagement ring and the slim gold wedding band. Thankfully, today wasn’t a day where Leo was going to be late. She got the notification of his call, and accepted it.
He was wearing her favorite soft blue sweater, and she smiled as soon as she saw him. “Hey,” she greeted.
“Hey,” he replied, his blue eyes lit up with happiness. “Oh, I miss you. Two weeks, right?”
She nodded. Not that she was counting down or anything. “How are you?”
“You know. Busy. Always busy.”
Darcy made a face. She knew. It was why they only got to talk to each other a few times a week. They chatted for a little bit, just enjoying being able to see and talk to each other, even though it wasn’t face-to-face.
Too soon, though, Leo had to go. Darcy pressed her lips against her fingertips and then waved them at the screen. “I love you.”
She loved the way his smile lit up his whole face. “I love you, too. I’ll talk to you soon.”
