BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! Jason's alarm went off. "Uuhggughh! Shut up you stupid clock! I'm getting up!" Jason wasn't in a good mood today and desperately needed coffee. He got dressed into his uniform and headed to the Mess Hall. "Good Morning Squad Leader Jason!" Seth one of his squad members greeted sarcastically. "Mmhm." Was the only response from the tired squad leader. "Good Morning Jason. I got you coffee." Ray another member of Jason's squad and his best friend. "Thanks, Ray." "No problem dude." Jason gave a small smile as the smell of the coffee entered his nose. Jason walks outside and leans against the fence. "Hey." A familiar voice said from next to him. "Hey, Mike." "Rough night?" "Yeah. But nothing a cup of coffee can't fix." Mike let out a small chuckle at Jason's comment. "That's one way to think about it." This time it was Jason's turn to chuckle. "I guess." He gave one of his signature smiles. Mike always seems to cheer up Jason without even realizing it. Getting a sudden burst of confidence Jason leans over and kisses Mike's shoulder. Mike was caught off guard by this but smiled nonetheless. "What was that for?" "Just a little thanks for always cheering me up." "Well, to be honest, I do it because I care about you. Plus I really like your smile, it's cute." "Thanks. And um...I find your sniffing habit cute." "Really!?" "Yeah!" "I like your scent. You always smell really good." "Haha! Thanks!" Jason sets his coffee down and hugs Mike. Mike hugs back and sniffs him in the process. Jason pulls away. "I love you, Mike Zacharias." "I love you too, Jason Fujioka."
