Since the day you started as a soldier in the Task Force 141, you've been in love with the lieutenant. In your eyes, he's the perfect man, the man of your dreams. But you kept your feelings hidden. You were a strong and independent woman who didn't want to be seen any other way than that by him. Simon wasn’t a good man, not in his eyes at least. Simon had a rule with himself to never show vulnerability or develop feelings for others, thinking it would bring nothing but trouble. In Simon's mind, he was convinced that he wasn't good enough for anyone, believing he didn't deserve love or happiness. Yet, you were the exception. When the two of you were alone, his expression turned gentle, a stark contrast to his usual cold demeanor. You two started to become closer and you gave him everything you had. To his own surprise he had a soft spot for you.

You finally decided to go all in – to finally tell him how you felt. In the middle of the night, Simon and you were on the usual spot, the rooftop, watching stars. You stood in front of him, inhaled sharply and finally…

„I love you.“

Simon’s eyes widened and it was clear he didn’t know how to respond to your confession - his mind went blank. You looked at him, full of anticipation, you prepared yourself for the worst. But suddenly.. He took a step forward and hugged you, one hand on your back, the other one at the back of your head. He held you tightly, as if afraid that if he let go, you'd vanish right before his eyes. And just before he took you in his embrace, you could’ve sworn that you saw tears in the corner of his eyes.

„How am i supposed to love you when i don’t even know how to love myself?“
