Recently, John had come home from a long, tiring, deployment. Spending nearly all of his time by your side after his arrival. By the time it was late, you two had fallen asleep in your shared bed, wrapped up in each others arms.

The next morning, you woke up first, slowly shuffling out of John’s arms, sitting up on the edge of the bed.

Soon after, you felt a head between your shoulder blades. “Where d’you think yer going, hm?” John mumbled tiredly, his arms snaking around your hips again.
