Patience was, unfortunately, not one of Jade's biggest virtues. To be fair, she wasn't unpleasantly impatient either - her impatient strike came out more in situations where she was looking forward to something, and she felt like she just couldn't wait anymore for it to happen. And currently, that situation was being able to see her girlfriend again. Although it was just a little under a week since she'd seen her, it felt like they'd been apart forever - which made her a tad worried about Christmas break, and a bit more resigned to the thought of breaking things off at the end of the year - and she couldn't wait to hold her and kiss her again, or even just to see her face to face, hear her voice clearly, just all those little things she'd gotten used to ever since they'd started dating, just a month ago. It was a bit crazy to think it was such a short amount of time, when she felt like Amanda had been such a strong and important presence in her life for much longer. Being with her was definitely nothing like being with anyone else she'd ever dated, that had been clear from the very start, but each day they spent together made it that much more obvious.
She'd gotten back to Kansas City around lunch time, after a red eye flight from Maui to Los Angeles, and then a short connection back into KC. She'd considered sticking around the airport and waiting for Amanda there, but she knew it'd be a couple of hours or so until her own flight landed, and she felt a power nap would do her some good while waiting for the other girl to make it back to the Academy, so she'd hopped in a cab and gotten back to school in the early afternoon, settling down in bed with every intention of resting for an hour or so. That hadn't gone according to plan though, the butterflies in her stomach too distracting to allow her to sleep, especially now that she was back in their room and the other girl's belongings made her feel that much more present around her, which only just enheightened the fact that she wasn't there. After trying for about half an hour to keep her eyes shut for more than ten seconds at a time, she'd given up, and had settled on caffeine and a short run to give her system an energy boost instead. Taking a quick shower upon her return to the room, she took the time to blowdry her hair and apply a touch of makeup before sitting back down and pulling her laptop out of its bag so she could keep herself entertained while waiting.
