Nearly 2K reads!! I feel so lucky, I didn't think anyone would actually read this. Thank you guys so much!! And the picture is probably irrelevant (what have I become I'm sorryyyyyyy) who gets the reference?! Need to stop writing before I write more than the chapter itself...

Robert's POV

Nearly two weeks without Aaron. It's been the loneliest two weeks of my life. Sure, we'd talked on the phone and texted most of the time, but that's not the same as having him there to hug. The only way I could sleep at night was if I hugged a pillow or the big teddy bear that Aaron has from the theme park. I know how sad that is, it is extremely sad. Even Chas noticed how lost I've been these past two weeks, and Adam but that's because I've been up at the scrapyard so Adam doesn't shout when Aaron gets back. I'd even been bonding with Liv a bit, so she doesn't hate me now. I got out of bed, walked downstairs and sat down on the couch as I remembered last nights call, how excited Aaron had sounded, and I smiled to myself. Only two more days until I could hug and kiss him and hold his hand. Two more days. Two more days. I got up, and decided I needed a bath. That would hopefully relax me a bit. I put the plug in the drain and turned on the tap, letting the warm water fill up the bathtub, and got in when the bath was mostly full and the right temperature. After that, I'd gotten changed into some pajama bottoms, leaving my top off. It was pretty warm, unusual for Emmerdale. I put some TV show on, just for background noise as the house was too silent, and scrolled through Facebook. A short while later, the door knocked. Who'd sent a parcel? I haven't ordered anything I haven't got already. I opened the door, and nearly squealed in delight! "Aaron!" I exclaimed, and he came in, putting his suitcase next to the stairs. I picked him up in a hug, repeatedly kissing him and shaking him about like a kid with their favourite toy. "Missed me?" He asked, laughing. "You have no idea, seriously!!" I shouted, and actually did squeal. "So, am I going to be let down?" He asked, and I realised I hadn't put him back down, so I did. And hugged him properly, standing there for ages after he hugged me back. "I think I've shrunk. You've gotten taller" Aaron stated, making me laugh. "I'm not stood up straight" I replied, and let go of the hug to do so. "Okay you've gotten slightly taller" he decided, and I laughed, and hugged him again. "I missed you so much" I said softly, and Aaron chuckled. "Me too, I'm so happy to be back and I never thought I'd say that" he rambled. "So what did you do when I was gone?" He asked me. "Literally the same thing every day. Get up, get ready, work at the scrapyard, do whatever needed doing for Home James, went to the pub, spoke to Liv and got looks from Chas, call you, and then struggle to sleep" I informed him, and then added "What did you do?". "All I did was relax, talk to you and try to sleep. I found it really difficult" he told me. "I found it hard too, I literally had to hug a pillow" I admitted. "Me too!" Aaron exclaimed, and I giggled before picking him up, taking him upstairs and then I literally just cuddled him. "I missed this" Aaron mumbled, snuggling into my chest. "I missed this too". "Good, because I'm too special to not miss" I added, making Aaron chuckle. "You sure are" he nearly whispered. "Oi, cheeky. How come you came home early?" I asked. "Missed you, of course. And I've had a load of spam from Vic, asking about the wedding plans" he answered, and I smiled. "I haven't seen Vic this week, but I'm kind of glad now" I said. "I'll tell Vic about that" he exclaimed. "No you won't" I shouted, after Aaron got up and started running downstairs. I quickly got changed, and ran downstairs after him. "Can't get meeeee!" Aaron called, running outside. I ran out after him, and closed the door. "I WILL tackle you to the ground!" I yelled, and Aaron giggled. "Yeah right!" He yelled back, still running. I ran as fast as I could, and caught up with him, just as he ran through to the pub in the back way. He ran in and I actually tackled him to the floor. "Told you I would" I said, lay on him, laughing. "I didn't think you actually would! Thought you'd give up halfway" he replied, giggling. "I'm great though" I boasted, joking. I rolled over, freeing Aaron. "I'm not the only one who's really light you know" he said to me. "I'm heavier than you though" I replied. "Doubt it" he whispered, sticking his tongue out at me. "Very mature" I retorted, getting up, and added "If you don't mind, I'm going home and taking a nap because tackling is very tiring" before going to walk out when Aaron jumped on my back. "Take me with youuu!" He yelled, and I shook my head and laughed. "Fine but you have to walk, I'm already tired enough" I said, but then I was lifted off of my feet and found myself being carried over Aaron's shoulder. "Really?" I asked. "I'll start running!" He yelled, closing the door behind him and sprinting to the house. I couldn't stop laughing as he ran.
