You lay on your couch in the living room scrolling through the pictures on your phone. All the pictures of you and him, Leon. The last day you saw him you were both on the couch watching a movie when he got a phone call. It was about the president's daughter, Ashley. She had been kidnapped and taken to Spain and since Leon was her bodyguard he had to go rescue her. Next thing you knew he packed up a few clothes, gave you a kiss on the cheek and said he had to leave for work. After he left you sat there watching the movie both shocked and disappointed. This was supposed to be one of his only days off for the next month and he had wanted to spend it with you. You were jealous even though you knew it was stupid. It was his job to protect her and that's what he was doing. You decided to put the phone down and take a bath. There was no point in just waiting around. It had been almost a week since he'd left.

You started the warm water and played some soft music in the background. You needed to relax. All that you've been able to think about since Leon left was if he were still alive or being tortured or something horrible. You undressed and got in the tub, letting the warm water relax your muscles. You were letting yourself be in a state of trance when you heard something from the outside the door. You didn't have any pets (even though you've asked Leon for a puppy for months) so you were alone in the house, or so you thought. Slowly you got out of the tub and grabbed your gray robe from the hook. Quickly throwing it on you opened the door cautiously, afraid that whoever was here would attack. It was in this moment you were glad that Leon had insisted that there should be a few guns in the house for situations like this one. You reached for the one under the bathroom sink, hoping that it was just your imagination making the noise and you wouldn't actually have to use this gun on a human. As you walked down the hallway, you knew it wasn't just your imagination making the noises and there was somebody in the house, specifically the kitchen. Cursing yourself for shutting off all the lights before you took a bath you walked into the dining room, holding the gun up and flipped on the switch to see who this intruder was and get him out of your home. It was a man with a black shirt and jeans and he was making himself... a peanut butter and jelly sandwich? The man turned around surprised. You were also surprised to see who it was. Leon.

"If I knew that you were going to point that thing at me, I wouldn't have snuck into the house." he said smiling at you. You let out the breath of air you didn't even realise you were holding, set the handgun on the table and ran into his arms. He held you for a moment before you pushed away to look at his face. His eyes as gorgeous as ever and his light freckles that went across his nose seemed softer than you remember. He looked down at you and that's when you saw the cut on his cheek.

"Leon, what happened out there? Is Ashley alright? I was so worried that you wouldn't come back." he looked at you before speaking.

"It's nothing sweetheart, I just fell and cut myself, I'm alright now I promise. Especially now that I'm home with you. And yes Ashley is back with her father." you knew he was lying. Leon doesn't just fall but you decided to drop it and just spend this happy moment with him. You really missed him and now he was home.

"I know that the love of my life is a badass and all but maybe you're right about getting a dog. It could protect you when I can't. And it would be a good guard dog if there ever was an actual intruder."

"Really? I want a Golden Retriever, or a German Shepherd, even a lab would be super nice." he chuckled as you rambled on about dogs.

"How about we give it a few days so you can choose alright? Meanwhile I'm starving and would love to watch a different movie with you. How about you go pick one out while I finish this killer sandwich." he said. You nodded and turned into the living room. As you picked up the remote and tried to find something to watch, Leon sat next on the couch and put his arm around you, not caring that you were only wearing a robe and that your hair was wet. Both of you were glad to be home with each other.
