The sound of the doorbell ringing of the apartment immediately causes Jake to leap out of the couch he had been lounging on with a pout as he scrolled through his phone, waiting for you.

Your boyfriend had been checking up on your apartment while you were gone, something he had been doing for you since you started dating, and you found it endearing at how he practically apartmant-sat your place.

Eagerly, he reaches for your doorknob to open the door for you, but stops once he glances at the mirror near the coatrack and above the key bowl on your small table, he turns to face his reflection and quickly fixes his hair by running his fingers through it with a huff. With a satisfied grin, he finally turns away from the mirror and pulls the door open.

His grin grows as he practically picks you up in a bone-crushing, sweet hug, pouring out how much he missed you with his grip around you. Tucking his nose into the crook of your neck, he lets out a small laugh.

"I missed you way too much," his Australian accent strong with the heart-fluttering words as he lets out a happy sigh.
