who will get the girl//bradley "rooster bradshaw vs jake "hangman" seresin

part 1/maggies pov

i woke up to my alarm blaring in my ear, i hit it to shut it off, still half asleep. i crack my eyes open and notice the time, the clock reads 8:15am "HOLY CRAP" i jump out of bed, i have to be at at the airport in 30 minutes, i scramble to get ready and then speed to catch my flight. 'todays the day, today i leave for top gun' i think to myself. i get to the airport and check my bags in and board my flight, i sit at the window seat and just reminisce on my experience in the navy so far, as the plane fills with people from all around the world.

someone comes and starts to put their luggage above my seat and i look up and lock eyes with the one and only bradley bradshaw, my jaw drops and he blurts out "you've got to be kidding me" "holy crap, if it isn't the one and only bradley bradshaw" he nods "the one and only" i smile slightly and he starts to sit next to me

"well mags, how've you been?" he asks and i look at him, the familiar nickname rolling off of his toungue. we make eye contact and i search for the slightest bit of insincerity and there was none. i sigh "i've been good roo, what about yourself?" he smiles at the nickname that i created for him the first day of top gun. "i've been good, mostly just going on missions and what not." i nodded in understanding and turned my attention back to the window.

"so... i'm guessing they called you back to top gun?" i just nod "i'm guessing you were too?" i say mocking him. "yes but only because i knew you missed me" he smirked and this caused me to look up at him laughing "yeah right, the only thing i missed about you was kicking your butt all the time" he scoffed "as if!!" i giggled and we made eye contact, for a second i got lost in those beautiful eyes of his. he smiled, as if he knew exactly what i was thinking.

i snapped out of it and quickly tried to change the topic "do you know who else is going to be there?" he shook his head "no idea, but since we're both here, it's probably all people who graduated top of their class" i smirked "then why in the world are you here?" he rolled his eyes "you barely beat me, princess" i scoffed and stuck my tongue out "i still beat you tho!" he laughed "you're so childish mags" i returned the smile "they don't call me princess for nothing." he laughed and we returned to a comfortable silence.

'maybe i did miss him' i thought to myself as i gazed out the window and the plane took off. we continued to talk every now and then, just about what we'd been up to after top gun and what we think this mission is about. about half way through the flight, i started to drift in and out of sleep, fighting to keep my eyes open. eventually i rested her head on his shoulder as i gave up trying to stay awake.

*3rd person pov*

as she slept on his shoulder he just gazed at her but not in the creepy way, in a loving and caring way. he was so happy to have her back even if that meant he would always have someone better than him around, he didn't mind as long as it was princess. his princess, he just didn't realize it yet.
