The living room is shadowed, illuminated only by the muted glow of a solitary lamp. A faint trace of cigar smoke clings to John's uniform as he descends the stairs, his boots landing with a heavy cadence on the creaking steps. He halts in the doorway, his eyes finding you and holding for a long moment before he crosses the space. His burly frame sinks into the couch beside you, and he draws you against his chest with a weary, gratified sigh. 'Missed you, lovely.' The words are muffled into your hair as he nuzzles close, his arms encircling you as if you were the only solid ground after a long voyage.
