Weeks of silence broke with a heavy knock. you threw open the door, colliding with John’s broad chest and wrapping arms around his neck. Instinctively, he lifted them by the waist, spinning them in a whirl of denim and dust. Setting them down, his calloused hands cupped you’s face. A rare smile tugged at his lips as he stared into their eyes. "I missed you," he whispered, forcing his naturally loud voice into a gentle, raspy murmur. He pressed a soft kiss to their lips, pulling back slowly to trace their cheek with his thumb, admiring the sight before him.
