Second Best(2yeon/Najeong version)

Whipped

Jeongyeon

" I am just pointing out you are whipped" Bambam razzes me as we unload the gear its been two weeks since I have heard her voice two long weeks where I have wondered and worried all the damn shit I swore I wouldn't do.

Our simple in and out mission was of course delayed once we got boots on the ground I am tired, irritable and need to see her.

" At least I am not calling and going to voicemail."

Bambam shouldn't talk shit considering he's called Nicha at least five times and she refuses to answer but the ass hat keeps trying.

" She'll come around."

" whatever.... I'd rather be whipped than a pussy who can't get the girl."

He snuffs" I am what I eat."

We both laugh and finish with the offload unfortunately I still have a ton of shit to do before I can even be close to calling home there's a stack of paperwork with my name on it.

After about three hours of mindless crap and a debrief with the Commander I head back to my barracks luckily I have my own room and don't have to deal with anyone I want to sleep for days but tomorrow we have another meeting for an upcoming mission and need to prepare.

I grab my phone and pray to god the wi-fi isn't going to give me shit today.

" Jeongyeon?" her voice is sleepy and I would give my left nut to be able to touch her.

" Hi sweetheart."

" Hi are you okay?" she asks disoriented I look at the clock for the first time and feel like shit its 3A.M her time.

" I am sorry I woke you I just got back to my room and missed you."

She groans and I picture her stretching " I miss you I am awake."

" Go back to bed" I give her an out.

" Yoo Jeongyeon shut your face and talk to me."

" Kinda counterproductive there isn't it?" I joke and smile lying back down.

If I close my eyes I can pretend I am with her the silence stretches between us as I imagine myself holding her.

" Everything okay?" her quiet voice soothes me.

" Now it is."

The mission was one thing after another and I'll be gone a lot more frequently as there's movement again in Africa my team is the most ready to handle that region and the other team is already tasked to another area I don't want to fucking think about it.

" Good" she sounds wary" how long will we be in touch for?"

" Not long I swear this deployment is going to destroy me" I admit to her" I can't fucking handle the bullshit every time I get something in place and I am snapping at everyone I swear one person adds something to my plate and I am going to lose it."

" You seem overwhelmed" her voice rings of defeat but why?

" What's wrong Nay?" her long pause does nothing to calm me I hear her sigh and my adrenaline spikes" Nayeon" I say sitting up.

" Nothing's wrong I am fine."

" That word again" my voice is harsh but I hate this" Talk to me sweetheart" I calm myself because she doesn't need to deal with my shit.

She lets out a deep breath" I am just missing you Jinyoung moved out this week and there's some stuff going on at the office."

Just the news of Jinyoung moving out of the house is enough to make me feel better I would have never been the one to push it but knowing he's gone will help me relax a little the idea of him being there when I couldn't was killing me.

" How's he doing?" I wonder no matter what our friendship will never be the same I could never look at him knowing he got the girl and I can't imagine he'll be calling me for a beer anytime soon there is no way this can end well enough for either of us to the point where we can go back to what we were if she picked him I could never go around there looking at her with him would destroy me Jinyoung will always be tied to her through Emma and I respect that she's his daughter and though I may love her like she's my own she's not the loss of his friendship weighs heavily on me.

" He's good I hope he is at least he's in counselling and Mark is helping a lot is this weird?" she asks.

" Its not pleasant but he's part of our lives."

" Yeah" she sighs.

" I was thinking of Krissy today" I mention my sister for the first time in a long time.

" Oh? You never mention her anymore" Nayeon notes with her voice sounding more alert.

I feel like a dirtbag for not talking about her Krissy was my younger sister and I doted on her when we were kids we were best friends and later I protected her from asshole guys who wanted to fuck her which considering we were twins and only ten months apart meant I broke a lot of my friends jaws.

" Just wishing she could see me now... changing diapers and shit."

Nayeon laughs and I smile I love the sound she makes and how her eyes brighten I can see it in my head " You don't change diapers you massacre them but you'll have a lot of time to learn."

" Fuck that I'll let you handle all of it" My eyes close and I could pass out.

" I don't know...." she trails off.

" I hate to cut you off but we just got back and I am exhausted can we talk later? I am beat and I have another shit day tomorrow lets hope everyone steers clear because I am liable to snap."

" Of course get some sleep I love you" her voice is low and my eyes keep closing.

" yeah I need a nap love you I'll call you soon" we say our goodbyes and I swear I am asleep before we disconnect.
