It wasn’t like this at the start, if someone would’ve told him that you, had disappeared after a mission, a year ago he wouldn’t have cared as much. But you grew on him…texts from him got more different to say the least. The closer you got the more he got attached to you. You two had went out and laid under the stars one night, sharing a small kiss but it wasn’t awkward, it just pushed you both closer to each other.

Soon he was taking you out on dates when there was no missions or training on schedule. It was perfect, you both were perfect together. But it was a secret, that was the only semi bad part, he couldn’t touch you around others, simply holding your hand would expose you both and you’d most likely get written up or worse, transferred.

It had been over a year now since Simon had made it official with you, it was the cutest, he got his dog to give you a letter that he poured his heart into. You got the opportunity to be assigned to a mission with Simon. It went…smoothly at first. That wasn’t the case for long, Simon was pulled out of the mission for some big meeting, all Lieutenants were said to attend it. Simon was replaced by someone else and that’s when things went wrong, everything happened so quick and you were lost. The team miscounted and forgot about you. Simon was infuriated, the devil couldn’t reach him so he grabbed the best part of Simon and held onto it for dear life until it was gone, you were gone.

Almost a year flew by and they investigated, a general found some pieces of your hair, some blood, and torn clothing that was later identified as yours, they confirmed you were KIA. Thought that wasn’t the case, Simon never knew that but he believed you were dead, you couldn’t be.

He kept texting your phone, said he watched the stars and thought of you, that Riley misses you, but…his recent message torn your heart apart. “Please find me again my love. I’m begging you. I’m not the same, I’m only half a man without you.” What he didn’t expect was an address in response..
