Chapter Text
"Babe? Do you remember this?" Maggie asks Alex, holding up a postcard she found in her box of old things when she was cleaning them out earlier.
"Remember what? Ohh" Alex asks, but as soon as she sees what Maggie is holding, she knows.
--Flashback to Alex and Maggie just started dating--
"Gosh I'm gonna miss you so much, Danvers" Said Maggie, arms wrapping around Alex.
"Me too. I never hated work trips this much" Alex sighed, melting into Maggie's embrace.
"Call me if you need me to pick you up when you're back okay?"
"Okay. I hate to break it but I need to go"
"Come home safe"
"Always" Alex leaned in for a kiss, which Maggie happily gave her.
Two days later, Maggie received a postcard in her mail. Wondering who sent it, she flipped it over and smiled sweetly once she read the words on it.
It's from Alex.
The message was sweet and short, written in Alex's half cursive handwriting.
It wrote,
"Hey Mags,
Everything's going fine here so I will be home in three days or so. Saw this on the street and I though... I thought, you might like this. Missing you a lot, can't wait to come home to you.
Xx Alex"
--End of flashback--
Alex's cheeks burn at her own cheesy gesture back in the days.
Maggie walks up to Alex and draws her into her arms.
"Just for you to know, I love it. I love you"
"I love you too"
