Loneliness has become your closest friend. Each passing day seemed to stretch into eternity. Hours turned into days as days turned into weeks. You were missing his presence and you couldn’t contain it anymore. Everything felt like an endless cycle without him. You’d wake up longing for his scent, go to work and still go home with the house all empty.

All you could remember was the last thing he told you being that he’d be home in a few days due to an important mission tasked to him, yet it had been almost longer than a month. Where was he?

Everyday you’d feel panic whenever you wake up and still feel the bed empty. You couldn’t shake off the thought that he was hurt or even worse dead. You didn't want to think that way. So, you clung to the remaining bits of hope that he would come home soon.

With your growing desperation, you make your way inside his room—deciding that you’d stay there for the night. You crawled onto his bed with a few pillows in hand. The moment you lie down, his scent already enters your nose and you couldn’t help but be saddened. You missed him and that wasn’t something you can deny.

It was already late when Chuuya arrived home. He lightly knocked on your room, guessing that you were already asleep as he took a peek. Although, he was surprised to not see you there. His footsteps made their way to his own room. He spotted you as he entered, seeing you deeply asleep as you were coddled with the pillows and blankets near you. He couldn’t help but let a smile creep up his lips before heading towards his bed to lay down with you.
