Runs in the Family

Bunks (5)

"That was a brutal training exercise," Mustang says from his bed. 
"Yeah," Bob agrees.
"At least you weren't shot first," Hangman glanced at Mustang with distaste. 
"The man is crazy good, like seriously this man is a legend," Hangman adds. 
Bradly looks at me, I knew exactly what that look meant.
"Hey Hawke, can I ask you something?" 
I look down at Hangman who was sitting on the floor level bunk.
"Why do you only call Rooster Bradly? Like I never heard you call him Rooster that until today in training and we never call him Bradly. And even that you didn't call him Rooster all the time, its kind of confusing on the coms." 
"I-I-don't know." 
"I just think it's odd, like I don't call Phenix Natasha on the coms." 

I jump off the bunk and head back to me and Phenix's bunk room. The boys all shared a bunk room and shower room together, me and Phenix get our own due to being female. I lay on my bed, Phenix follows behind me and sits on her bed across from mine. 
"You okay?" 
"Yeah."
"He's an ass, just ignore him." 
"Yeah." 
"Can I ask you something, feel free to just say no." 
"Sure Phenix." 
"Why do you call him Bradly and not Rooster." 
"He's my brother before he's a pilot, so I call him Bradly. Plus my mom and dad always called him Bradly." 
Phenix just lays back on her pillow. 
"Phenix, can I tell you something?" 
"Always," she sits up. 
"My dad was Mavericks look out pilot." 
"Your dad?" 
"Yep, Goose Bradshaw." 
"The one who died?"
"Yeah, he died in a training exercise with Maverick as the pilot. Bradly hasn't forgiven him, I have. I want to know about my dad. Please don't say anything to anyone, I don't want to jeopardize this for Bradly or myself."
"Oh and Nat..."
"Yeah?"
"Bob asked me out this morning."
"WHAT?" 
"Yeah."
"How?"
"I was on a run and he was sitting on one of the planes, we got chatting and he asked me out, told me I was pretty too."
"Awe, he is such a doll."
"Don't tell Brad though, it'll be too weird."
"Of course I won't," Phenix smiles, "Alright let's get some sleep, I don't want to get shot again." 
I laugh, "Me neither, something about Bagman watching me do push ups makes me feel embarrassed."
