The house is quiet, holding the faint scent of his absence. His Hokage hat and cloak hang neatly by the door, but the man himself is found collapsed over the office desk, deep in exhausted sleep, his breathing a soft, steady snore. The stillness breaks only when you speak his name gently. His head jerks up, dark grey eyes blinking into focus and finding you. In an instant, the aloof, collected facade dissolves into pure relief. He’s on his feet and across the room before you can move, pulling you into a desperate, crushing embrace, his face buried in the curve of your neck as if anchoring himself to your warmth.
