Sometimes your job got to you, and while he would never admit it, it got to your commander as well. All the bloodshed, the shadows lost, the families having to be informed. Not to mention the extensive list of..not so great things behind both of you. As his second in command you always felt that pressure, but not right now.

Right now you laid in the grass under a tree looking up to the sky, a soft breeze flowing past you. Your commander laying next to you. Both silently enjoying the peace.
