I give her one hard kiss and then turn to go.
I look behind me as I’m opening the double doors to go in. She stands there, looking lost and so very, very sad. I open my mouth to say something else, but then close it. I don’t haveanything. Nothing profound. No words of wisdom. This just sucks.
Sophie wishes me goodbye at the entrance to security. “Be safe, brother,” she mutters, “come back in one piece and don’t do anything stupid.”
I give her a tight hug and then let go. I gulp when I realize that time has come again. The time to leave the familiar and go back to a world where my future is unsure, where every day is not promised and the people I love most are an ocean away.
“Brian! Wait! Brian!” My head flies up at my name being shouted by a very familiar voice.
I swing around to see Reina running through the airport like a crazy person. My face splits into an easy grin.
I barely manage to catch her when she launches herself at me. Her long legs wrap around my waist. She rains kisses on my face, and I barely manage to keep up.
“What happened to not making a big fuss? And not running through the airport like a crazy person?” I ask when she finally stops kissing me.
She pulls back. “I was an idiot. You’re worth running for. You’re so worth it. I love you, soldier boy. Love you so damn much.”
I kiss her, tangling our tongues together in a rough kiss that is probably not suitable for public viewing, but feeling no shame about it.This woman.
“I love you, princess,” I whisper when we finally pull apart.
I put her down and she gives me one last lingering kiss. “You can go now. I don’t want you to. But you can.” She grins and her eyes still glitter with a trace of tears.
“I’ll write you, Reina. I’ll write you all the damn time.”
Chapter 34
Letters seem a little pale in comparison to the real person. I miss him. I miss his body, his smile, his laugh, and well, his everything…-Reina
Reina
I receive my first letter barely a week into his deployment. He’s already called me a few times, but I had forgotten about the delay time in letters. I hold the envelope close to my chest as I walk to my favorite bench. The concrete is cold as fuck under my ass, but it’s tradition to read his letters there, so I suck in a sharp breath and ignore the chill.
Dear Princess,
It’s hard getting back into the swing of things after having you with me for almost two months. I miss everything about you. Holding you close, the silky feel of your hair…everything. Damn it, I’m getting emotional as I sit here. I’m not supposed to do that. Forgive your tough soldier, sweet girl. I’m trying.
Everyone seems to be in a bit of a slump since we got back together. The lieutenant is still going through a shitty divorce with his wife, and Diaz apparently fell in love with a girl back home too. I never would have thought the ladies’ man would have gone ass over teakettle, but he has. It’s some girl he knew from high school, and he’s pretty much batshit for her. I know how he feels.
Things are busy here. I’m supposed to be reporting for duty in like ten minutes, but I had to write you because I promised, and I miss you so damn much it feels like my heart is going to fall out of my chest. I’m used to being able to push aside these feelings, but damn since we got back, I can’t seem to.
I think I promised some dirty talk, so here goes, princess.
When I lay in my bunk at night, I think of our time together. I remember the soft feel of your skin and how you felt moving underneath me. The way it felt to be inside you and feel that tight pussy strangling my cock. The way your breathy moans would give way to screams as I fucked you hard. And that final moment when you would shatter in my arms.
Great, now I’m hard as hell in my uniform, and I have to go work with a bunch of smelly dudes. Thanks, princess.
God, I miss you. This is the last time I’ll say it, but I can’t say it enough. Only a few more months to go.
How is everything there? Have you talked to your mom yet? Send me a drawing of yours. I want to have another one here with me.
Love you always,
Your soldier, Brian
P.S. I know I said I wouldn’t, but I’ll say it again. I miss you like crazy.
Tears are falling down my cheeks at a rapid pace now. I fold the letter carefully and put it back inside the envelope. Only a few more months, right? I can make it that long.
