~β‘Soldier boy... Oh, my little soldier boy..β‘~
JJ didnt deserve all he had went through. His life was a never ending war. He couldn't catch a break, unless he was with his pogues.
John B had been his best friend since second grade. They were practically brothers. Their arguments ended with laughs and their bond was invincible.
Pope was JJ's rise or die. Though, JJ could be a bad influence, when with Pope there was never a frown. Pope looked out for JJ and JJ did the same. They loved eachother.
Kie was JJ's first crush, but that ended soon after. He realized that he loved her platonically. She was always making sure JJ wasn't doing something stupid.
And you, god.. you.. You were JJ's first love. His rock, his sun and moon, his voice of reason, everything. You meant everything to him. You were his first friend when you both met in preschool, you were the only person who had ever stood up for him.
But even with all of you, the war he was fighting all the time was slowly taking him. His father, his fears, his anxiety, his impulsiveness.. It was like he was the only soldier on his side of the battle feild, and to him it sure as hell felt that way.
