56: Glad

Snoozing for hours on a couch, any couch, is not really that comfortable. Elly had been waiting for hours now, clutching her favorite pillow and dozing. It was dark out, around two o'clock in the morning and almost time.

The door cracked open and her ears perked up as she flung herself to her feet. 

A denim-clad arm carefully slipped through and opened it the rest of the way. Hizashi crept in, a stuffed backpack slung over one shoulder and a suitcase in one hand. These both fell to the floor with a thud as she propelled herself into his arms. 

"Whoaa, uh ... miss me, babe?"

"Yes!" She hugged him tight. "I'm so happy you're home."
