Iwaizumi Hajime ~ Home

It's like, almost half past five in the morning over here in England, what am I doing with my life? I should be sleeping but here I am.

Also, dedicated to Jardymon the biggest Iwa slut out there I know ;))

~*~

You'd always known that Iwaizumi had wanted to join the army ever since he was a first-year, and you weren't completely against it but you were certainly hasty of the affair.

Despite the fact that you thought it was really noble and brave of your boyfriend to want to fight for his country, you couldn't help but feel worried for his safety, as the army was a pretty dangerous profession.

You knew for a fact that Iwaizumi wasn't scared, but that didn't mean you weren't. Even though you'd never tried to talk him out of it, in your mind that pathological fear of receiving the news that Iwaizumi wasn't going to be coming back home shook you from your sleep every night despite the fact that he was sleeping right next to you.

And straight after the two of you graduated from college, he was already packing for the army and leaving you scared out of your mind for the future.

At the airport at his time of departure, you couldn't help but let a few tears slip and Iwaizumi actually felt bad for having to leave you, but as he wiped your tears away and kissed your lips softly, he promised to return home safely and in one piece just for you.

And he did.

When you received a phone call at around two in the morning one day six months after Iwaizumi had left, your first thought was that it was someone calling to say that he was dead, but when the caller ID flashed with a name you've been wanting to see for half a year, your heart skipped a beat.

Hajime <3

You picked up the phone and held it to your ear shakily.

"H-hello?" You answered quietly, and when you heard the voice on the other end, you just broke down.

"Y/N..." Iwaizumi said, like he'd missed the name so much. "Hey, I'm ok, I'm at the airport now. I'm about to call a cab, but I just thought I'd let you know I was here before-"

"I'm coming to get you," you cut him off, scrambling out of the bed the two of you shared and slipping on the first pair of shoes you could fine, which just so happened to be a pair of black converse to match your (favourite colour) pyjamas. (note the sarcasm lol).

"What- Y/N, it's two in the morning, you don't have to-" he started again, but you cut him off yet again.

"I want to see you," you insisted, and Iwaizumi chuckled lightly.

"Ok," he replied, and you could practically hear the smile in his voice. "I'll be waiting."

~*~

You could've sworn that you've never driven so fast in your life, and if it weren't for the isolated streets of Miyagi, you would've probably been pulled over at least six times by now.

The airport wasn't very full at the moment either, and you couldn't care less that you looked like a mentally ill teenager running around the airport in frilly pyjamas and trainers, tears running down her face.

It didn't take you long to find Iwaizumi's gate, and when you saw him, your heart stopped.

He was waiting, just as he said he would, but he didn't notice you until you started running towards him, and he turned his head in your direction when he heard the soles of your trainers slapping against the floor.

He smiled a smile bigger than life itself and held his arms out expecting you to just hug him, but he was so wrong.

You literally jumped into his arms, wrapping your arms and legs around his body and hugging him like you would never see him again, and Iwaizumi hugged you back tighter than he ever had before.

You cried so much into his shoulder and grabbed his face to press sloppy kisses to his lips to prove just how much you had missed him, and he rubbed your hips soothingly to calm your crying.

Despite the fact that you didn't look so beautiful right now - teary-eyed, red-faced, hair a mess - Iwaizumi still missed waking up to your gorgeous face and thought about you everyday.

It was still so surreal that you were in his arms again after half a year of having to sleep in a bunk with his best friend Oikawa for so long.

But, still, he was just glad to be home.
