Natasha stood frozen, staring at Dustin with her lips slightly parted. She looked like she couldn't believe what she was seeing. Tears blurred her vision almost instantly.

"Is it you, Dear?" she asked, her voice shaking with disbelief.

"I'm home, Natasha."

He smiled and opened his arms. Before he could blink, she was already rushing toward him.

Natasha threw herself into Dustin's embrace without hesitation. Her arms locked around his waist like she was trying to merge their bodies into one.
