    The mission finally over Soap was on the first flight back to Scotland, attentively watching the small screen in his hand. Occasionally filtering through the cameras to follow you as you moved about his home. drifting here and there before settling in a room. It was the longest flight he had ever been on, maybe he was exaggerating a bit, but any time spent away from his pet was way too long. He couldn't wait to get back and hold you in his arms.

    After the flight came the drive, you were awake last he checked and he hoped you would still be when he got home. The drive seemed to go faster than the flight, might've been because he was speeding but that isn't important. What was important was the simple, one-story home that was slowly was slowly getting closer. Behind their home sat his work shop then a thought sprung in his head as he parked in the driveway. He should make you something to mark their one year anniversary It was a great idea. One he had two months to work on and make the perfect gift.

    After parking and shutting off the vehicle he climbed out, pulling his bags from the passenger seat with him. He shut the door with his hip almost running excitedly to the door. He shifted the bundle of keys around trying to find the one that unlocked the door. He pushed the door open and stepped into the threshold, glancing about as he called out, "Bonnie?"

    He shut the door behind him, securely fastening the lock. His eyebrows raised as he looked around. Had you fallen asleep? Were you in the living room? Bathroom?

    This was the best part, finding and surprising you.
