"So… You're shipping out tomorrow…" he sighed and pressed his lips against the top of her head. They were on the couch with some tv-show neither of them watched playing in the background.
She nodded against his chest.
"For how long?"
"Five months this time…" she swallowed.
He nodded a little, "Well, at least five months ain't that long…"
She nodded against his chest once more, "Still pretty long…"
He nodded, "Yeah… I know…"
"I'm looking forward to coming back home already…" she almost whispered.
"Yeah, me too…" he agreed, rubbing a hand over her shoulder.
