I was pretty much bouncing up and down in my seat, craning my neck to get a glimpse of the house I hadn't seen in a month. Eden swore the reason he slowed the car down was because the road was icy, but I couldn't help but to think that he was teasing me. I had been driving him crazy with my excitement since I had been given my release date from the hospital. For him to prolong my anxiousness was something I could easily see him doing. Although, even though we were going slow the house came up on us so fast. I couldn't believe I was finally back on my street. My house was almost as marvelous a sight as it had been the very first time I saw it. I gripped the sides of my seat tighter with every passing second.

I was already unbuckling my seatbelt when Eden pulled into the driveway. My door was opened before the car had even come to a complete stop, and my feet sunk into the snow the second the car was put in park. I don't think Eden had realized what had happened. I was running around the car so fast he had no time to react.
"Ethe- Meadow, you can't get so riled up!" he called after me as I made my mad dash to the door.
I ignored him entirely, not noticing the name-slip that almost happened. I instead latched onto the door handle, frowned when I realized it was locked, and pouted at Eden.
"Door open, please!" I requested, hating that I had left my own set of keys in my bedroom way back when.
"I'll get there when I get there." Eden teased, walking as slow as humanly possible.
He also took a long time separating the keys to find the one for the front door. I'm sure he would have continued on with his nonsense had I not clutched at his clothes and shook him in order to get him to unlock the door faster.

A large part of the reason why I wanted to get inside fast was because I could hear the sound of a furry someone hurriedly pacing around behind the door. Button jumped up onto me so fast once the door was open that I barely had the chance to take those few steps in. She had been brought back to the house that morning as well, so we were both eager to share in the excitement of being home together. I gave my puppy a massive hug and lots of pets. I was rewarded with sloppy kisses, tail wagging, and a bit of cheerful barking. While I was making sure that Button didn't push me over, I took a second to glance around the house. Everything about it was the exact same. It was perhaps a bit dusty seeing as how Eden hadn't bothered to do much cleaning while I was sick, but other than that it was the good old place I had grown to love immensely. It was comfortable and familiar, and the sense of belonging was so strong I had the desire to cry for a brief moment.
