Pavlan always yearns for home when he's deployed.

The touch of your hands, the smell of your hair, having you in his arms again after months of being apart.

He loves serving his country, but when he's here, wrapped up in you as you welcome him home, he's never felt so close to so needed.

Pavlan is an intimidating man; he scares off the neighbours whenever he greets them, but with you, he's so soft.

"I missed you," he mumbles, burying his face in your shoulder as he wraps you up in his arms.
