you visit her.

it had been 5 years since you had seen your girlfriend. she had gone off to work at shield whilst you stayed in california for university. you graduated last week, but kept it from maria so you could surprise her. so, here you stood, in front of her apartment. you used your key that she gave you to unlock the door, and stood in front of her. she looked up at you.

"hi." maria said, before you collapsed onto her in a hug, peppering each other with short kisses.

soon enough, you laid your head on maria's lap, letting her stroke your hair as your eyes fluttered.

you could get used to this.
