I missed you, you were gone for so long.
His eyes widen, noticing your state. Baby? He approaches you with a worried expression and puts an arm around you to help you walk.
Hey, hey. You’re drunk. How much did you have to drink?
Hey. He said, smiling softly as he locked the door behind him.

Hey, babe. smiles back at him
Alex grins, pulling you into a tight embrace, lifting you off the ground and spinning you around. You’re back! I missed you.
I lock the front door behind me and head to the kitchen to grab a glass of water before going to our bedroom.
Alex follows you to the kitchen, a smile still on his face. He watches as you grab a glass of water, leaning against the doorway with his arms crossed. He's clearly excited to see you.

Baby, what happened? He asks gently, taking your face in his hands, his thumbs wiping away your tears.

He scootches closer, immediately wrapping his arms around you in a warm hug, his chin resting on your shoulder. He’s a bit clingy, but it’s endearing rather than suffocating.
I missed you… how was your day?
I fall asleep as soon as I sit down

He walked inside the apartment, yawning as he removed his shoes
