You were tensed. This was supposed to be your last lunch in a camp before going to the field, but you didn't have much appetite. You turned your head to your right and then to your left; and saw that you weren't the only one that wasn't eating. You completely understood why. Your team consists of 12 members, and all of you were aware of the fact that at least four of them are not coming back from the battle today. You glanced towards your boyfriend Chan, who was sitting across from you. He didn't even touch his food. His hands were on his head, eyes closed. He was trying to process all of this, just like you did. Lena, your best friend, was leaning on the cold stone wall, eyes opened, but an empty look. The rest of your team was quiet as well. Nobody dared to say a word. You knew situations like this would happen. That is the price of joining the military. You survived until now, but you were ready to sacrifice your life for any person that was currently in the room. They were all your friends, one of them even your boyfriend.

You joined the force 4 years ago, you were the last member to join the team. Lena was friendly from the beginning. You became best friends very quickly. You had a very good relationship with everyone, except for Chan. He used to send you different glances, or he just simply ignored you.

You didn't want to push your friendship, if he wants to talk to you he will. That was until one day you were in the field and he saved your life. You were badly injured and he picked you up with all his strength and carried you to the camp, all alone, while being severly injured himself. Your team split up and you two only had each other that day. The whole time he was carrying you he thought you were unconscious when in reality you were aware of everything that was happening, you just weren't strong enough to say something. He talked to you the whole time while he carried you "Come on Y/n, don't give up. Fight! You can't leave. Not yet." but there was one sentence that probably led to you two being in a relationship "You can't leave me, I haven't said anything that I wanted to say yet. Please... stay with me" later you woke up in the hospital wing of the camp, he was sitting on a chair next to you. When he heard you grunting he immediately grabbed your hand. That was the day he confessed and when you both started dating. Everyone from the team knew that you were dating and they were all supportive about it.

You were taking your weapon, and preparing for a mission when you felt two hands sneaking around your waist. You immediately leaned back to his chest. He kissed your neck "I love you." That was all he said. You sighed "I love you too Chan." You turned towards him and kissed him. He hugged you and whispered in your ear "Please let me hug you like this again later, when all of this is over." You hugged him tightly.

"You will. I promise you will. You won't get rid of me that easily" he chuckled "I'm glad to hear that." he kissed you again "Okay love birds, it's time to move, you can be all lovey dovey when we return" Minho suddenly appeared behind you. You both awkwardly chuckled. You picked up your bags and went out of the tent, towards the vehicle that should've taken you to the destination where your enemy was supposed to be.

You tried to immobilize Lena's leg while Minho and Chan were covering you. She was shot badly and was losing a lot of blood. Something was telling you she wasn't going to make it, but you refused to give up. "We need to get her out of here! Now!" you yelled as you realised she started to lose consciousness. Chan turned his head towards you and sighed "Y/n, we are trapped. It is questioning if we will be able to get out of here even without carrying an injured person" you were in disbelief "I'm not leaving her behind!" "You will have to!" Minho yelled before Chan had an opportunity to say anything "But-" "Y/n that's not up for a debate. She probably won't make it anyways. She lost too much blood already. Grab your gun and move, we are going to cover you" Minho ordered. You wanted to protest but Chan grabbed your hand "Baby please, let's go and get this over with. Please don't make this difficult." you sighed. Your heart shattered but you knew they were right, she is already gone and you have a chance to make it out of here alive.
