John had finally gotten back from deployment after almost six months. Unfortunately, the plane had landed at 2 am and the taxi had taken another hour to arrive at your home. You were sound asleep by now and he wanted nothing more to hold you. Shedding his gear and boots, he slipped his way into your shared bed, wrapping his arms tightly around you.

"Sorry to wake you, love." He squeezed you tighter. "'m home now." His voice was soft, not wanting to disturb you anymore than he already had.
