A Surprise Visit

I have been in a long-distance relationship with my boyfriend for nearly 4 and a half years now. He lives in the UK and I live in Australia. We have both travelled to see each other at different times, but I haven't seen him since February 2012. We text and talk on the phone nearly every day, sometimes twice a day if we have the time. It is hard even at the best of times. But I honestly believe that he is my soulmate, I've never met anyone with such a kind heart. Even after all this time, I still can't believe he loves me back.

This is a photo from our 2 year anniversary when
my handsome man came to visit me in Australia

For the last few months, we have been making arrangements for me to move to the UK to live with him. He is expecting me to fly over at the end of May. What he doesn't know is that I've booked my flight. I'm leaving Melbourne this Friday night and will be arriving in the UK on Saturday around midday in the UK - just in time for his birthday on Sunday. His older sister Naomi has very kindly agreed to pick me up from the airport. But I haven't worked out the finer details of how I'm going to surprise him. Should I just knock on the door? Or arrange to have a meal out somewhere with his family and randomly turn up there? My best friend Sophia suggested I text him to say I've sent him a gift and ask him to check if it's on his doorstep, and then I would just be there when he opened the door. 

I have to say the stress of moving hasn't been easy to deal with on my own. I'm not used to not being able to talk to him - I'm so used to talking to him about everything. It has been so strange not being able talk about my concerns with flying and about how excited I am to just fall into his arms and never leave them again. I've still got quite a bit of packing to do in my room before I leave, so I had better be off for now. 

Wish me luck!
