Home for Christmas

Transcript

Hey lover. Oh it's great to hear your voice too. I know baby I miss you so much.

I can't wait to see you. Thing is, that's not going to be exactly when we thought it was. Well you know this kind of training up can require a little bit of flexibility in terms of a schedule and timeline.

No, things didn't go exactly as planned. Well the end date for the training up has been adjusted. I know my love.

I'm sorry this has affected our holiday plans but I'll make it up to you when I get home. I know baby I'm sorry but you know how these things can be. Oh I wish I were there with you right now too.

None of the guys are as good at cuddling as you are. Kidding babe, I'm kidding. Well mostly kidding.

Shut up. Alright well look I wanted to apologize for the change of plans so I uh. No, no, no go answer it.

That's fine. Hi, I've got a flower delivery for um, oh geez. This handwriting is awful.

I can't even read it. Um, does this look like your name? Alright, I'm going to take your word for it because, well maybe you should turn around.

Hey baby. I'm just going to leave these on your coffee table and show myself out. Well.

Merry Christmas you too. It's good to see you too. I missed you so much babe.

I really did. It's nice to have been missed. Well I, no I mean of course I don't love that you had to be lonely.

I mean I don't, I don't, you know just want you to like be alone and lonely and lonesome and then you know find that you don't actually miss me. But, what does that look? Are you, are you just messing with me? Oh you are such a, get over here.

Exactly. Baby, you read my mind. Of course the flower guy was in on this.

Babe, usually the florist only makes deliveries for like events and big orders and stuff. They don't usually make single deliveries like this. Well, I went in there and.

Stop. Do you want to hear this? Do you want, do you want to hear this or not? I know baby, I miss you too.

Knock it off. Jeez. Yes, I went in there and I told him I'd pay him extra if he'd, you know, do this delivery for me.

Well of course I was willing to do that for you. Well, that's the thing. I didn't end up having to pay him extra after all.

No, he took one look at the uniform and said it was his pleasure to do a favor for a serviceman. And then on top of that, he gave me a military discount. I know, right? I can't talk when you keep kissing me like that.

Yeah, I'd say so. We have to spread word of this guy and, uh, draw up some business for him, huh? All right.

All right. Yes. Yes.

Yes. Come here. Come here.

Well, I'm going to, I'm going to pick you up and carry you. I'll pick you up. Okay.

That works too. All right. You got a good grip.

Hang on. Now this is what I'm talking about. It has been too long since I had my sweetheart straddling my lap.

I know. Well, it would have been a lot worse if I were deployed, but I still don't like having all those weeks away from you. And I've really missed this.

Holding you close and kissing you. You know, I love when you drape your arms over my shoulders like that. Maybe the only thing that's better is, Oh, is your fingernails on the back of my neck? Oh baby.

You know how to melt me. No, I'm a big person. Military man.

You're not allowed to melt me like that. I have no defense. Hmm.

Maybe I missed you so bad. I'm so glad to be home. I did not lie.

I don't even know how to lie. I didn't say the training out brand long. No, I said it didn't go as expected and I wasn't going to get home when we thought I would.

Well, that's perfectly true, baby. It finished a few days early. Well, I know that you inferred that I was going to be late.

I'm sure maybe I set up conditions for you to infer that. I didn't actually say it. I don't know that I implied it, baby.

I think it was all inference on your part. No, no. Oh, don't give me that.

No, pouting is not going to work. Okay. Then what are you doing? Baby, sulking is the same thing as pouting.

Yes, it is. Okay. How are they different? Huh? No, they're exactly the same.

Okay. Show me a pouting face. Mm-hmm.

Now, show me a sulking face. Oh, baloney. That's not the face you were making earlier.

Oh, geez. So what you're saying is I did wrong and I shouldn't try to surprise you anymore. Is that what you're saying? Yeah, I didn't think so.

You can't fool me, baby. No, you can't. Okay, fine.

You can fool me. You fooled me one time. You fooled me one time.

Okay, two times. But, I mean, that second time you didn't actually fool me. No, I wasn't fooled.

Oh, fine. Oh, fine. I love you too, babe.

Yeah. Feels so good just being here with you. Have my arms around your waist and you up on my lap like that.

Babe, when we're apart, I just. ..
