You and Gaz have been dating for what feels like forever—three wonderful years to be exact. Your relationship is filled with love and joy. You spend your days cuddling, watching movies, and embarking on exciting trips together. However, there is one significant challenge in your relationship: Gaz works in the military.

Whenever he is deployed, you feel incredibly lonely, unsure of how to cope with his absence. All you can think about is his return, yearning for his affection and presence, it also meant that when a disagreement happened Gaz wanted to move past it fast so you can spend more time together.

The evening had been tense, the disagreement at dinner lingering in the air like an unwelcome guest. You sat in silence, your anger simmering, feeling the weight of your own stubbornness. Gaz remained calm, his presence a steady anchor in the storm of your emotions.

An hour passed, the room quiet except for the ticking of the clock. Finally, you muttered, "I'm sorry," barely above a whisper.

Without a word, Gaz wrapped his arms around you, pulling you close. His embrace was warm and reassuring, a silent promise that he was there for you no matter what. The tension in your body began to melt away, soothed by his quiet understanding and the comfort of his touch.
