Leo Greene x reader [Pt. 2]

One week today. One week since Leo had left for the other side of the Cordon. I tried to busy myself to keep my mind off of it but thoughts of him plagued me. I barely slept at night anymore... I sighed to myself as I flipped through TV channels as I sat on the couch in our living room. A clap of thunder broke then and I jumped. The rain still hadn't stopped. It was like an on-going downpour.

"The virus outbreak is apparently more severe than we first thought. Officials have extended the quarantine period to 3 weeks-"

I pressed my hand to my mouth, trying not to cry. It had been so long since that night he had called me. I was terrified of what might have happened to him. And I had no way of knowing, no way of finding out.

I pressed a button on my remote, turning to another channel.

"-until the symptoms become fatal-"

All of a sudden, the power went out and I was in pitch-black darkness. I exhaled in annoyance. This was the third time this week I'd had a power outage. As I got up, a frantic knocking suddenly resounded at my front door. I turned, intently watching the door. A lump formed in my throat and my heartbeat sped up in fear.

Who could that be at this time of night? What if it was someone who wanted to kill me? Gosh, I watched too many horror films, I thought to myself. Swallowing, I pushed aside that thought, getting up from the couch to answer the door. Slowly, I put my hand on the doorknob, twisting it.

The door swung open to reveal a man dressed in a dark jacket, gray button-up shirt, and jeans. He was drenched from the rain but when he looked up, I knew who it was. I'd know that face anywhere.

"Leo!" I choked out as I threw my arms around him.

He picked me up koala bear style and sighed into my hair. His hands were wrapped tightly around me as he placed kisses up and down my neck and jawline, muttering my name. I sobbed into his shoulder, trying to snuggle deeper into him. I didn't care that he was soaking-wet or could be infected. I didn't care about any of it. I just wanted to be with him, be near him.

He pulled back from me and shut the door behind us with his foot.

"Baby, I'm so sorry it took so long. When I got over there...it was horrible..." he trailed off, a distant look in his stormy ocean-blue eyes.

I caressed his face with my fingertips.

"Leo...I'm so glad you're home..." I said, tears filling my eyes again as I looked at the face I'd missed so much.

He smiled sadly and took me in his arms once more. I rested my head against his chest and listened to his heart beat.

"I love with you with all my heart..." I whispered into his jacket as he ran his long fingers through my auburn hair.

"I'll never leave you again, Jasmine..." he sighed, pressing his warm lips to my forehead, making me feel safe anew.
