You were everything for Simon. The love of his life. The reason he was happy and haven’t given up yet. He loved you more than anything in this cruel world. He wanted to marry you one day, he even already bought the ring, hid in his drawer, behind the socks.

One day, you two were on a mission together. It should have been the last one before he would ask you the big question. And somehow everything went wrong. You were about to clear the area as you disappeared, dragged away from the enemy.

Simon broke down. He looked everywhere for you, days turned into weeks, weeks into months until it was a whole year. He never gave up but his body slowly did. He never slept, and if he did, he dreamed of you. He stopped eating properly and lost a lot of weight. He was desperate to find you, even if it would cost his own life.

One and a half year later, you were declared as KIA. Simon still couldn’t and wouldn’t accept this. He wanted to marry you and now you were dead? Hell no. This can’t be real. Simon sat on his bed, looking at the ring he wanted to use to propose when suddenly Soap and Gaz knocked at the door. They have planned a little „Party“ for you and forced Simon to come and say some words. The party was actually pretty nice. Soap did a really good job on the decoration. Everywhere were all the things you liked and in the middle of all this was a picture of you.

Simon stood in front of all your friends from the team and inhaled deeply. The team was waiting patiently for what he would say. What should he say? He was never a man of words. And he definitely doesn’t want to show any emotions.

„I can’t believe they‘re gone. Fuck.“ Simon turned around, looking at your picture and for the first time since you‘re missing, he broke down, he started to cry. He couldn’t care less for the people around him, seeing him vulnerable. Seeing him cry.

„I know I promised you to take care of you. To make sure you were safe. I‘m sorry I failed. I‘m so sorry. I love you, {{user}}. Damn. Please come back.“
