#1 in Bob Floyd
#2 in...
It's been seven days since Bob left for the mission, he should be back anytime now if the mission went as planned. I have picked up extra shifts at the Hard Deck trying to distract myself from the possibility of Bob's death. Why did I have to meet him now, why couldn't I have met him after the mission, or months before hand? Working late at the bar tonight I closed up for Penny so she could go home early. She was also worried because Maverick went on the mission, which was not the original plan. I look down at my phone and see that it is 3:42 am, still no messages from Bob, my stomach sank seeing that he still has not texted back.
I return home exhausted from the amount of worrying I have done this past week and decided a shower is just what I needed. I stood in the shower letting the water run over me beginning to feel sleepy for the first time this week. I have been too worried about Bob and his mission to get any productive rest. I felt my head bobbing as I dozed off in the shower and decided to dry off and try to sleep.
Laying in bed all I can do was toss and turn, the bed hasn't felt right without Bob laying next to me. Groaning I roll out of bed stepping outside to the deck, stopping at the back door seeing that there is a rainstorm. I can feel tears forming in my eyes, being sleep deprived, worrying all week and now being denied the ability to sit outside made me feel helpless. I just wanted one thing to go right, I just wanted to rest and feel relaxed but most of all I wanted Bob to come home safe. Slowly shuffling my feet I walk to the kitchen getting a glass of water, staring at the water rushing down the window in front of me. Hypnotized by the water running down the glass my focus goes blurry, feeling myself drift off to sleep again I decide to head back to my bed.
Taking a few steps toward my room I hear a car stop in front of the house. My heart sank to my stomach at the noise, running to the front door I open it seeing who the car belonged too. Recognizing the car my breath hitched in my throat, stepping outside in the rain I see him get out of the car slamming it shut. I began to sob a feeling of relief filling my chest and not being able to stand the distance between us I ran up to him pulling him for a hug.
"You made it back" I cry into his neck, breathing in his familiar scent. Pulling away I look him tears rolling down his face mixing with the rain on his face.
Grabbing my face with his hands Bob pulls me in for a long passionate kiss, full of need and longing. Gasping for air we rest our foreheads against each others, laughing Bob finally responds "I promised you a date didn't I?".
Bob wiped the tears from my face only to be replaced by raindrops, "I missed you so much Y/N, I'm sorry I didn't call when we finished the mission but-" cutting Bob off I pulled him in for another kiss. I could feel his arms move down to my waist, pulling me in closer to him. I pressed myself against him so hard wishing I could crawl into his body so we would never have to be apart again. We both began to shiver, being soaked through from the rain but neither of us wanting to pull away from each other.

Placing my hands on Bob's chest trying to get warm I could feel my teeth start to chatter. Bob pulls away and tries to say something before I grab the collar of his shirt bringing him back to my lips. I didn't want to be apart from him ever again, not even for a breath of air or because of some stupid rain. Smiling into the kiss Bob reluctantly pulls away again "Y/N please, we should get inside you're shivering" I could feel Bob cold chest under my hands and decided going inside would be for the best.
Changing into dry clothes tears still filled my eyes, I finally felt relief for the first time this week. I was so happy he made it back to me in one piece all I could do was cry. Bob noticed my sniffling as we both got changed and pulled me into another hug, his warm familiar chest wrapped around me. "Hey it's okay I'm here now I'm safe" Bob whispered rubbing my back trying to calm me.
"I know it's just I missed you so much and I-I was so worried about you and n-now you're here and I don't want you to ever leave again." My words were muffled by his chest, it was hard to breath because I was crying to much. Bob grabbed my face again, looking me in the eyes "I am not going anywhere, not without you I promise" he states wiping the tears from my puffy eyes.
Smiling I kiss him gently trying to savor the moment, the feeling of relief rushing over us as we both calm down from the wave of emotions. Crawling into bed now in warm dry clothes we just hold each other in our arms. Not saying anything, just listening to the storm outside and the rain beating down on the windows. Bob began to snore softly as he fell asleep next to me, smiling I snuggle my face in closer to him drifting off to sleep myself for the first time in a week.
Waking up to the sun shining in my eyes I sigh and try to roll over. Not being able too, I look down and see Bob laying on my chest, his arms wrapped around my waist. I began to smile, realizing that last night was real and not just a hopeful dream. Bob's head lifted off my chest searching the room until his eyes landed on me, smiling he said "Good morning darling". My heart fluttered at the sound of his morning voice "I didn't mean to wake you, sorry" I say rubbing his face with my thumb.
"You didn't wake me" Bob laughs rubbing his eyes "the sun did". Giggling I push Bob off me to close my curtains, defusing the sunlight in my room "Okay come back to bed please" Bob says burying his face into a pillow holding out his arm for me to join him. Rolling my eyes I lay next to him feeling his strong arms wrap around me, pulling me into a tight embrace. Kissing his chest I lay my head down falling back asleep.
