everyone sending ‘💋’ in my inbox gets a kiss from my muse.

"Alan!" Ellie yelled out as she got to their apartment, "Alan! are you home?!" Tossing her book bag on the couch she looked around to try to find Alan in the apartment they shared. Looking a round she didn't find him but saw their bedroom door was slightly open. Rushing into the room, she saw he was passed out, still in his clothes taking a nap.

"Alan!" Ellie grinned, jumping on top of his sleeping form she bent down and started to kiss his cheek, "Alan wake uppppp," kissing him over and over she said, "wake up. wake up. wake up."

Ellie was feeling every emotion in that moment as Alan got off the plane with the other survivors of Isla Sorna. Alan had sworn to her that this was just a fly over, that’d he’d be home in two days tops. That this couple was paying big money for it and it’d help with the dig at least through the end of the year. She was reluctant to let him leave but knew they needed the money. But then when their oldest, Charlie said that Daddy was on the phone and she heard his screams along with the dinosaurs, she knew the flight turned into something else.

Thanks to her friend Mark Degler, who occasionally guest lectures at her university who is a full time employee of the Defense department, they had called almost every faction of the military there. Relief flooded through her when they got word that he and Billy were safe, and she dropped her kids off at her parents and went to get Alan.

A few weeks after returning from the Biosyn sanctuary Owen found himself heading back out to his cabin in the woods for a meetup with a new friend. While he no longer lives there on a daily basis he ventures back every now and then to keep the place maintained and to check on Blue and Beta if they decide to come around and see him. Since he returned he, Claire and Maisie found a place in town to call home so that Masie can enjoy being around kids her age, and experience things that she's been kept from since she was nine years old. It's been good so far if a bit of a learning curve for all of them but they seem to be adjusting. After a once around the cabin it seems to be in great shape. The gentle breeze from the east is rustling the leaves of the nearby trees, and bird song breaks the silence sporadically. He hasn't heard a raptor call or chittering nearby thus far so he settles himself near the fire pit tossing bits of wood into the circle before picking up a piece to widdle while he waits for Grant to arrive. He's tried not to annoy the man with calls seeing as that business in Washington was going down for awhile but that's all done with for the most part now. He's looking forward to catching up with him, and discussing things they have in common. There's also something that he's been itching to tell Alan about for awhile but hasn't found a way to bring it up. Perhaps today over a beer or three he can bring it up or knowing his luck Blue will party crash, and he won't have the time.
