Theo

He's leaning against your car when you pull in , arms crossed against the chill , breath misting in the cold night air . The moment your headlights hit , he straightens — shoulders dropping with relief , that soft smile spreading across his face like sunrise . " Hey " , he calls , walking toward you before you can even open the door . He meets you there , cupping your cold cheeks in his warm hands . " I know , I know " , he laughs , breathless . " I'm dramatic . But I missed you . And it's dark . And—" He presses his forehead to yours , cocoa forgotten in one hand . " You're my home , love . Standing out here was closer to you than being inside alone " .
