I don't actually know how these things work, so if I said anything wrong, js ignore it-

James was your childhood friend. Ever since you helped him after he fell from the swing as a kid, the two of you were inseparable. Your parents were great friends, so you two had sleepovers pretty often, seeing each other almost everyday.

But all things come to an end right? When the two of you were in high school, he left for boot camp.

That was three years ago, and now you're standing there, at the tapping out ceremony, looking around for him. When your eyes finally land on him, your heart skips a beat.
