Martin had only been home a few weeks and was ready to go home to New York for his leave to his his mom and dad. I had wanted this man to go out my life but I knew he had to go to see his family since he hadn't seen them since before he went to war. By now he had moved in with me fully and Julian and I had made a routine involving Martin in our lives. This man had my heart. He stole it from me. Like he was intended to be there after my devastating divorce from Dustin and my harsh relationship from Julians dad.
He agreed to stay til after my birthday which was the 28th of August and I knew it would be agonizing to let him go. He left the day after and I called and bugged his mom and dad until I knew he made it safe.
He laughed when he heard I had called dozens of times before his arrival. He called my mom's and we talked for an hour. He assured me he was coming home to me a d I blurted out I love you Martin before we hung up. He hadn't said it back but I knew he did. The next morning felt like an eternity without Martin being around. His help with Julian was great and I missed that terribly.
I went over to my mother's house and awaited his call. He finally called and we talked again and I told him how much I missed him and he assured me he had missed me too. Time for dinner he said to me as his mom was yelling to go eat. Before we hung up he told me he loved me and I couldn't believe my ears. I said it back to him and we hung up.
It felt like it was hell.the next few days but our conversations were reassuring he was coming home to me. Time dragged on and on til finally it was his time to arrive home. I made sure Julians dad had him so Martin and I could have alone time and I made sure that a nice meal had been planned for his arrival home.
When I saw his car pull in the drive way I was estatic. He came jogging up and basic all knocked me over in the door was showering me with kisses all over and confessed his undying love for me. He was ripping my clothes off as he was telling me this. I couldn't take it any more I needed this man and I needed him to take me right then...
