Bill Hader Imagines

Welcome Home, My Marine (Barry Berkman)

(Just as a heads up, I have zero knowledge about the Marines. All the information I used is from google searches. I apologize if they are not correct.)

Barry was ready to be home and in Y/N's arms. He had done two tours in Afganistan in the Marines before he was discharged because of the accident. He was just ready to home so he could hug his son and kiss his wife.

After Barry left, Y/N continued her daily routine with the exception of her husband not being there with her. She would drop Branson off at school then head to work. Branson missed his dad very much, but he stayed strong for his mom.

Barry's tours consisted of six total years with the ability to come home to visit for two and a half days every month and to have some months off. When he was home for his days, he spent every minute he could with Y/N and Branson. He loved them very much, and he hated leaving them, but he had to.

He didn't tell Y/N that he was coming home because he wanted to surprise her and Branson. He arrived at their house, and he was happy to see that Y/N was at home. He walked up to the front door, he knocked, and he warned for an answer.

Y/N had finally arrived home after a hectic day. She was almost late to work, and Branson was almost late to school because he slept passed his alarm. She finally made it to work witch three minutes to spare.

She was really busy at work till she got sick, and her boss sent her home. She had some time to spare before she had to pick up Branson so she decided to make a doctors appointment just to make that she was alright.

Y/N received some unexpected but exciting news at the doctors office. She found out that she was around six weeks pregnant, which sounded right because Barry's last visit was about six weeks ago. She knew that it would be difficult to raise a baby without Barry there to help her, but she was confident that she could do it.

She had just sat down on the couch, after helping Branson with his homework, with her favorite blanket that Barry got her when she heard a knock on the door. A confused look came to her face, but she stood up and walked over to the door. She opened it, and a surprised expression came to her face as she saw Barry standing in front of her smiling.

Barry immediately dropped his bags and wrapped his arms around Y/N as she began to cry happy tears. He moved his hand to her face and pulled her into a loving kiss. They pulled away, but they kept their hands on each other.

"Barry, why didn't you tell me that you were visiting?"
"Well, there are two reasons: 1) I'm not visiting and 2) I want to surprise you and Branson."
"You're not visiting?"
"No, I'm home for good. There was an accident, and it caused me to get a honorable discharge. I would be upset by it, but I don't care. All I care about is you and Branson. Speaking of Branson, where is he?"
"He's most likely in his room."

Y/N called for Branson, and he quickly made his way to her. He rounded the corner, and he stopped dead in his tracks as he saw his dad standing there. He broke out into a sprint, and almost tackled Barry in a hug. He pulled back, and he smiled at Barry.

"Dad, what are doing here?"
"I'm home to stay. I'm never leaving you or your mom ever again."

Barry pulled them both into a family hug. He kissed the top of both of their heads and pulled back, and Y/N smiled as she remembered something.

"Actually, there's a third person that you'll never leave."

Barry and Branson both gave Y/N the same exact confused look, and it warmed her heard at how much alike they were. She looked down and placed her hands on her stomach. She looked back up at her boys and smiled.

"I just found out today that I'm around six weeks pregnant."

A shocked expression came to Barry's face, and Branson started jumping up and down and cheering. A huge smile came to Barry's face, and he wrapped his arms around Y/N again. He pulled back and kissed her again before connecting their foreheads together.

"Welcome home, my Marine."
"It's good to be home, my love."

Barry moved both of his hands to her stomach and he smiled.

"Hey, don't forget about me."

Barry looked to his side and saw Branson standing there. He reached down and pulled his son, who is to big to be held, into his arms.

"I could never forget about you, son."
"I love you, dad."
"I love you too, Branson, and I love your beautiful mama too."
"Aww, Barry. I love you too."

Barry was happy to be home with his family that was expanding. He couldn't imagine a better place to be that at home surrounded by the love of his wife and son. Sure, he was going to miss being deployed, but he definitely missed his beautiful family more.
