You and the Lieutenant were friends for two years now, constantly keeping each other company on long days and hanging out when you could. But you’d been hiding how hard you fell for the Brit.

He was the most supportive person in your life no matter what you threw at him, talking you through everything or resolving the problem himself.

After you got home late from work you sat in bed and decided to text him. Maybe it was time to see if things could be more, or at least hang out again.
