Tommy has been your fiancé of two years although you’ve known eachother since childhood.

Tommy has recently been deployed to Italy and there’s a chance he might not return for at least a year, and the thought makes you physically ill.

He’s only been gone for three weeks so far but it feels like forever. Tommy is in the middle of taking a nap when his phone rings, it’s from you.

“Hey baby…” He hums tiredly, his voice deep and croaky.
