A fluffy chapter before I start to really be mean.
------------------------------------------
Alex's POV

"Hey, Lexi," there stood John. His hoodie was a little dirty and he looked extremely thin but I was so happy to see him.

Tears start to pour out of my eyes and I fling myself at him and he wraps me in a tight hug. I sob heavily into his should and hold him tightly. I can feel he is crying too.

I pull away from the hug and look into those emerald green eyes, "I thought I'd never see you again." I say through heavy sobs. He smiles through his tears and I pull him down into a kiss. He wraps his arms around my waist and I wrap mine around his neck.

We pull away and he rests his forehead on mine. We look deep into each other's eyes.

"J-John?" Says a familiar voice.

We look up to see the group with Aspen in front of them, "Aspen!" John says and they run toward each other.

They reach each other and hug, John, lifting her off the ground and and spinning her around. Soon everyone is hugging John and telling him how much they missed him. None of then missed him as much as me other then Aspen and maybe Peggy. We went inside and sat on the couch and on the floor. I wrap my arms around John's torso, I can feel all of his ribs.

"John, have you been eating?" I ask.

"I ran out of money so I was kinda living off of anything I could get." He says, "it wasn't much."

"Time to get this boy some food in him!" Says Laf, "come on mon amour."

Hercules and Lafayette go to the kitchen area and make some food for everyone, especially John.

"John, what are you doing back?" Aspen asks, "our father-"

"Is now looking for me in France," John says. "I sent him on a bit of a wild goose chase."

Everyone laughs a little.

I curl up close to John. He wraps his arm around my small body.

Soon food is done and it smells amazing. Laf has always been an incredible cook. We eat and talk for hours but eventually the group has to go back to their dorms leaving John and I to do what we please.

Later that night

It's around 11 o'clock at night and John and I are sitting on our bed. I sit between his legs and rest my head on his chest. It feels so good to have his warm body so close to mine. I look up at him and he is looking at me. He smiles.

"What?" I ask.

"I just missed that face," he says wrapping his arms tightly around me.

He kisses the top of my head and lays back. We fall asleep, my head resting on his chest.
