I'll be Home For The Holidays (Major Major x Reader)

Summary: Your husband has finally gotten his honorable discharge papers and at last he can come home

Warnings: Pregnancy, parenthood etc.

Tagging: @floydsmuse Megs my dear, a little post-Thanksgiving fic pour vouz

The snow was falling heavily at the train station as afternoon began to give way to evening. You and two of your girlfriends were eagerly awaiting the return of your husbands as people boarded and disembarked from the trains, the front desks inside busy as ever with people purchasing last minute tickets to go home or to visit family but with the war finally being over, it was packed with soldiers and nurses returning home and eagerly awaiting families, some with little children in tow. Already it was wonderfully decorated for the upcoming Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays with garlands of pine and deep green and red everywhere.

"Do you see them?" you asked.

"I don't think the train's pulled in yet honey," Florence Kelley, one of your friends told you, dusting off her WAC hat, revealing the gold numbers of the 6888th embroidered on it. "Heard they were expecting snow Philly but nothing more."

You sighed as your baby started kicking again. Train delays in Philly meant that everyone would probably have to stay overnight somewhere before reaching the Midwest.

"Wish there was another way to reach them," you told her.

"Well, until they invent a way, I don't think we'll be getting a hold of them anytime soon," Rita Yeoh told you. "All I know is that they'd better be home before New Years."

You all had a good laugh on the matter when Jenny Ryan, the last of your girlfriends, came by with four small boxes. "Here," she said, handing each one off. "I ran up the path to the little diner and grabbed us all some sandwiches. I wish we had hot stuff but they said no deal."

Neither of you seemed to mind at all, so long as you had something to eat. Your little one kept kicking away, apparently picking his or her opportunity to cause mischief.

"Alright, you need to knock that off," you chuckled, arching your back a little bit. "Daddy's not home yet and you're already up to no good."

"That one's gonna be a heap of trouble," Florence joked.

You kept laughing and joking with your girlfriends, when it was announced that your husband's train would be arriving within the hour. You and the rest of the girls could hardly contain your excitement, finishing off your meals before disposing of the containers in the trashcans nearby.

Not long after, the train pulled to a stop and a hoard of soldiers, Army, Navy, Air Pilots and Marines, all began to disembark. Major kept shouting your name and waving to you, leaning out the window with a huge grin on his face.

You could've cried right then and there as he rushed right to you, scooping you up in his broad arms and littering your cheeks with kisses. Sure enough, your eyes grew hot and wet with tears of joy.

You had forgotten how much you had really missed him.

"Sweetheart you got so big," he said sweetly, noticing how much your bump had grown, cupping your face in his hands.

"Just a few more days," you laughed. "I'm ready though."

"Me too," Major sighed before he took you by the hand and led you inside. "God it's been too long."

You laughed again, waiting for the other spouses of your girlfriends. You were surprised to see Yossarian stepping off the train in full Class-As and his war bride, Isabella, walking hand in hand with him. Snowden, Appleby, Orr and many of the others had returned home to their girls or, like their Captain, had met a girl in Italy, only to return with her and most of her family in tow. All of them had come to greet the two of you and had promised to stop by for the holidays if time would allow.

After about an hour's ride in the car, you and Major were all too relieved to finally be home where it was warm. The dogs were the first to come through the door and greet the two of you but you were both far too tired to stay awake. Even though it was already five in the evening, it was pitch black out.

"Shit," you hissed. "I need to make sure everything's set for tomorrow."

"Ah-ah, don't you dare (y/n)," Major warned. "You did more than enough while I was away and now it's my turn."

You chuckled and shook your head as he set to taking the turkey out for the next day to thaw a little more. As soon as his hands were washed and dried, he pulled you into his arms and kissed you again.

"You have no idea how bad I missed you," he mumbled, his lips pressed against your cheek.

You smiled, resting your head on his shoulder, melting into his warmth. "Think it's time we go to bed," you told him.

Once the lights were shut off and the dogs in their bed near the window, you and Major headed upstairs to catch some sleep. Tomorrow was when the real work would begin.

***********************************

You awoke to the snow falling the next morning before you went about your usual routine. Major had taken over the kitchen and his father and brothers were all due to come over to help soon, while his mother and sisters went to the store for last minute supplies.

You had been folding up some of the baby clothes and putting them in the dresser, when the smell of food cooking downstairs in the kitchen had lured you in. The radio was quietly playing in the living room while one of the dogs was begging Major for a piece of bacon from the green bean casserole he had just set aside.

"No way bud," Major chuckled. "You already had your breakfast. Go chase the squirrels or something."

He smiled when he saw you come into the kitchen, taking you by the hand and slow-dancing as Frank Sinatra's voice filled the living room. Time seemed to stop for the both of you at that very moment, the two of you forgetting all your troubles, worries and cares and the last three years.

That night had been the best Thanksgiving you two had since the war had begun. Major's entire family and yours, brothers, sisters, parents, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews, had all showed up to the house to celebrate with you. But that hadn't been the only thing worth celebrating.

The very next day, you and Major welcomed Baby Robert after months and months of waiting, his parents thrilled beyond words to have another grandchild.

Some weeks later, close to Christmas when Baby Robert is brought home, you manage to catch a little polaroid of your boys asleep together in the wingback near the fire, the snow falling softly outside. It's a memory you keep near and dear to you both, always in your scrapbook and at the forefront of your minds.

Project update!

#1 (Birkin): I have been making amazing progress on spinning the yarn for this, but have realized the originally planned pattern probably isn't going to work, because the yarn isn't a consistent color (and it's also a bit yellowish). So I'll probably dye the yarn, and make some other sweater out of it. But progress has been made!

#2 (Vaike Shawl): Not started, I'm waiting until I finish spinning the fleece for the sweater

#3 (Ram Horns): COMPLETED!!!! WOOOO!!!! (Actually completed multiple times over bc I had a lot of extra yarn I made a few pairs to sell)

#4 (Chocomania Shawl): Not started but it's next on my list, I really would like to finish it by Christmas

#5 (Ashoka Top): No progress has been made, but I think I'm just going to let it hibernate for awhile

#6 (Wellerman Shawl): COMPLETED!!! AND IM SUPER HAPPY WITH HOW IT TURNED OUT!!!!

#7 (Wingspan Shawl): Not yet started, but now that I've found a second skein I'll hopefully get around to it before too long

#8: (Helianthus Tank): COMPLETED! Very excited to wear this :D

#9 (Dragon): Progress has been made (I sewed on the wings and various other details) but I'm not done yet. Happy with how it's going though

#10 (Craggy Shore Socks): No progress has been made I'm really not a sock knitted

#11 (Streamline Tank): COMPLETED! Idk if I'm really going to wear this one but I'm glad to be done with it, and I'll find a home for it eventually

#12 (Filbert Cobbins): No progress to report, really need to work on this guy some more

#13 (Traveling Women Shawl): Progress is being made! Haven't cast on yet but I'm 2/3 of the way through spinning the yarn

#14 (Laula Shawl): COMPLETED!!! IT TURNED OUT AMAZING!!!!

In terms of the other random stuff, I've made a little bit of progress on the blanket but haven't done much else. I'll keep at it!

Going to do a project roundup and to figure out my to-do list. Here goes nothing!

[muzzlemouths]

Been a while since I asked anything. How do the DMD boys feel about holidays like Labor Day, Memorial Day, and the 4th of July?

Star idk how this keeps happening but I was literally in the process of answering your last ask when you sent in this one lmao

They weren't a big fan of (minor) holidays, actually! If you've ever worked retail during a holiday you know how taxing it can be, and that's with other employees there to help! Holidays in the mall meant Sun and Moon were running around from the second it opened down to the exit of the very last customer, navigating through enormous crowds there for blowout sales and managing unruly customers. It's a rough day with very little reward.

The bigger holidays were different. It was easier for them to keep a level head when the overall mood was festive, even if it was still managed chaos.

Mitsugi squatting everywhere is the only highlight of this damn game

[mattodore]

[miabrown007]

a minute of silence to my skills to estimate how long a project is ever going to take

[giantkillerjack]

i love that you are still here on this earth. i am relieved that we've both made it this far. and i am so, so happy to be here on this planet with you. thank you for that.

[thewritingpossum]

I cannot wait to submit my last paper so I finally go back to and finish this damn fanfic that was supposed to be like 3000 words and take me like 5 days to write 🥴

[kikuism]

admittedly i haven't read much romance manga, but kaguya-sama: love is war is my favorite! i'm not sure if you've read or watched it though ^^; while i'm not caught up on it and it has been a while since i've read it, i still love it very much because it's full of goofs and antics but its emotional beats are still very resonant. i love its characters and dynamics too ^_^ personally i prefer the anime to the manga because the anime's editing and animation is impeccable, but to each their own! it *is* a romantic comedy, though, and the plot is very episodic at first, so if you're looking for something more romance-focused, less comedic, and immediately linearly driven then i'd read something else 🤍

omg i love kaguya sama! i love how it's death note disguised as a romance <3 it's definitely one of my faves, even if i never got around to finishing s3....i was so close to the end though, the school festival was about to start and my brother has been begginggggg me to finish it bc he says the way it ends is literally insane hgjshfhf. i love a romcom with GREAT character writing, i love the main 4 so much, would love to listen to a podcast of theirs <3 maybe this is my sign to actually go finish the season!!

[bobmckenzie]

[sureuncertainty]

hopefully it's just tonight but i haven't written at all in the last couple of days and i tried again tonight and it didn't work AGAIN i just can't get myself to write idk sometimes i really feel like the sequel to silence agenda is literally never ever going to actually get written and there's no point in even trying

[umilily]

sometimes i'm scared that i've been this way for so long that i don't know how to be anything else anymore.

it's the night before payday, otherwise known as The Evening Of Spending-Related Soul Searching, where I spend at least an hour contemplating how much needs to go into my college savings fund and how much I can allow myself for spending money and what in particular to spend money on during this payperiod and what things I'm going to have to give up/wait till next payperiod to buy bc I want other things more.
