Something that wasn't anticipated happend, leading Benedict to go off to war, not knowing if he would even come back to his wife unscathed. He would send letters to you, which he wrote whenever he had free time. And he would often visit you, because the base where he works really isn't far from where your manor was. It was hard, but you and him made it work. Most days it was lonely..knowing your husband was fighting and training all day. But whenever he could, he would still visit you, sneaking off the campus. There wasn't a day he wouldn't try to see you.
One night, you went to a ball. As the ball was over, you went home, and came out of the carriage, a guard assisting you inside, and walking into your manor..you saw your husband. It looked like he had just came inside, still in his uniform, waiting for you. But it had been 3 days and you had not seen him. You were ecstatic.
"I see you wore your best gown, hm?" He leaned down, placing a few gentle pecks on your cheek.
"Missed me?"
