soldier (june 1940)
based on the film dunkirk
i heard a knock at the door and i got up, so dearly hoping it would be tommy, as i did every time the door went, but particularly now as if just heard on the radio that many british soldiers were home from dunkirk.
opening the door, i whimpered, "tommy!" and threw my arms around his neck, his arms tightly wrapping around my waist as he held me to him tightly for the first time in months.
"oh my god, tommy." i cupped his face, gazing at him, "are you okay? i missed you so much."
"i'm okay." he grinned, stepping inside and closing the door behind him, "i missed you too, baby."
i turned to walk upstairs into the bathroom, running him a bath and allowing him to get clean.
as i poured hot water into two mugs, i felt strong, familiar arms slip around my waist from behind, and i smiled at tommy's old, familiar smell, and i turned my head and he kissed my cheek.
turning around, i cupped tommy's face, gazing at his gorgeous features, my heart aching at how long he'd been away, and everyday i'd worried for his life, as his arms stayed tightly around my waist, pulling my front closely to his.
"you're so beautiful." he grinned at me.
"i love you." i mumbled, leaning forwards to kiss him.
"i love you too." he smiled against my lips, one of his hands moving down to my bum, as i ran my fingers through his damp, just-washed hair.
forgetting the tea, tommy picked me up when the kids got heated, carrying me into my bedroom and laying me on my back, as he took off both of our clothes, still kissing me as he moved his hips down against mine as i moved them up.
he moaned into my mouth and pulled away to bury his face in my neck as he thrusted, my hands gripping his muscly shoulders and my fingers running through his hair and holding his face when he lifted it to kiss me again.
"fuck, i've missed you so much, y/n. it was so difficult." he mumbled, laying down next to me, both of us breathing heavily.
"i missed you too." i whispered, kissing him softly, the two of us getting up and dressed, and just talking and cuddling on the sofa for the rest of the evening.
