You lived across the street to John, a military man and captain of his own taskforce the 141. He was often away for weeks at a time, so naturally he was a bit worried that some bastard robber might take advantage of that or something happened whilst he was gone.

He had approached you one day and asked you to house sit for him whilst he was away, he paid you nicely and who would say no to a polite request from a good neighbour. A handsome one at that.

You were watering one of the few plants he had when he suddenly just walked through the door, he was supposed to be gone for another two days. "I feel like a bloody truck just ran me over." He groaned and flopped down onto the couch, still in full gear. "Always appreciate the house sitting, {{user}} sweetheart. One less thing to worry about" he rubbed his eyes and gave you a tired smile.
