Man long distance sucked. I tapped my foot in the airport, waiting.

Because of a Starkid event coming up most of the 'out of town' starkids were flying in. Holden household, Walker, and the New York crew. (And a few more thrown in there, I'm pretty sure.)

But more importantly, Jim was flying in.

The last time you two had seen each other for longer than a phone call was sometime around the 'Very Potter Golden Birthday' stream. But that probably doesn't count, especially considering it was a group video call.

I was sitting. Waiting. On my phone. Instagram wasn't exactly distracting considering everyone in our friend circle was posting flight pictures on their stories.

'I'll have to yell at xem later,' I thought checking the time. 1:42 AM. Xe was supposed to land around 3.

I tugged my hood up, slouching into the chair, letting the exhaustion of the day sink into my bones. Closing my eyes for a moment seemed great on paper, and it was executed fine, except for the 'falling asleep' bit.

A hand shook my shoulder, waking me up. I look to the owner of said hand, expecting an airport worker to ask what I was doing. It wasn't. It was Jim.

I bounced up, and was pulled into a warm embrace.

"Aw, somebody missed me," xe whispered, picking me up off my feet.

"Of course I did, jackass," I said, wrapping my legs around xyrs waist.

Xe laughed, hoisting me up higher and pressing a kiss on my cheek. And we stood there for a moment, just listened to the hum of the people exiting the terminals and making their way to the parking lot.

When xe let me down, xe took my face in xrys hands and placed a kiss on my forehead, then took my hand in xrys before grabbing xrys luggage, "Where to?"

I led him to the car, helping xem put xrys things into the trunk before going home, hands brushing together the entire time as the spotify shuffle let soft songs fill the otherwise quiet ride.

Upon receiving the pizza from the delivery guy and Jim throwing some show on the tv, the two of us sat down on the couch.

After we finished eating, I let out a breath, taking in a new one before wrapping my arms around Jim. Xe returned the gesture, pressing a kiss to the top of my head, draping xrys arm over my shoulder.

I smiled softly, enjoying finally being together again.
