Scarlett's Marine

Chapter #54

Chapter #54
Scarlett’s POV
After Louri’s nightmare I have been a little extra clingy but she doesn’t seem to mind. I was on her back for like thirty or forty minutes this morning and she didn’t seem bothered by it quite the opposite actually. “Can we visit Mama at work?” Devon asks. “Um let me text her and see if she’s busy.” I tell him and he nods.
My Marine
Me: Hey how busy are you right now?
Louri: Not busy but I am bored.
Me: Devon wants to come visit you at work. Is that ok?
Louri: Yeah that’s fine are you gonna bring the girls too?
Me: Yeah I can’t leave them here alone with your brother they would be hyped up on sugar and I don’t want to deal with that.
Louri: Lmfao that’s so true.
Me: Ok we’ll be there in 15.
Louri: Ok love you see you soon.

Louri’s POV
Today has been slow which is good. I got a text from Scarlett asking if it was ok to bring the kids because Devon wants to visit me at work. I’m excited to show him around and what I actually do because when they came before I was too busy to actually stop and explain everything. “Why are you smiling like the Cheshire cat?” Greg asks. “Scarlett and the kids are coming over and I can finally show Devon what I do when I’m not in combat.” I say with a smile. “I can’t wait to have my kid.” He says. “You will be a great dad.” I tell him. “You think so?” He asks. “Yeah I do. I’ve seen the way you are with my kids so I don’t see why you wouldn’t make a great dad.” I tell him just before there is a knock on the door. “Enter.” I call out and Scarlett opens the door and Devon runs right into my lap and the twins are in their stroller. “Hey little Marine. You want to see something cool?” I ask. “Yeah.” He nods and I pull out my sat phone. “What’s that?” He asks. “This is what I use when I would call you and Mommy when I’m deployed.” I tell him. “You don’t use your phone?” He questions. “Well not my cell phone. This is a sat phone that connects to satellites so I can stay in contact even from the middle of a mountain range. I think that’s pretty cool don’t you?” I say. “Yeah but it’s funny looking.” He says with a small laugh. “Yeah I guess it is compared to my cell phone.” I agree. “Can you play games on it?” He asks. “No, not on this phone.” I tell him. “That’s boring. What’s this?” He asks, pointing to my secure laptop. “That is my secure laptop. It's different from the one I use when I’m home because this one helps me stay in contact with my unit and keep things that the Marines want private well private.” I tell him. “Why does it look like that?” He asks. “Because it has a bulletproof case. I use this laptop on deployment too. It's actually how I do video calls with you when I’m deployed.” I tell him. “Why does it have to be bulletproof and what is bulletproof?” He asks and Scarlett shakes  her head. “That is something I will explain when you are older.” I tell him. “What is this?” He asks pointing to the incident report I was working on for the loss of contact with the unit the other day. “This is a incident report. You see when something that isn’t supposed to happen does happen we have to fill these out here I’ll get a blank one and we can fill it out together.” I tell him going into my desk drawer. “Ok Devon think of something for us to report.” I say and he puts his hand to his chin as he thinks. “Uncle Chrissy ate one of my hot pockets.” He says. “Ok so we start here where it says to fill out the date of the incident. So when did Uncle Chrissy eat your hot pocket?” I ask. “Yesterday after you left for work.” He says. “Ok then we put in yesterday’s date ok.” I say handing him the pen and I put my hand over his to help him write a little. “Ok so what time did this happen?” I ask. “Um around 9:30.” He says. “Ok so you write that down here.” I tell him. “Perfect, so what exactly happened?” I ask. “Well Uncle Chrissy went into the freezer to find something for breakfast.” He starts. “Ok so we write that down in this section if you need help with spelling just ask.” I tell him.  “How do you spell freezer?” He asks. “F.R.E.E.Z.E.R got it perfect you are a natural at this little Marine.” I tell him. “I am a little Marine Mama.” He says pulling the dog tags Sherman got him for his first birthday out from under his shirt. “That you are.” I smile. “Ok so what happened next?” I ask. “I said “Uncle Chrissy those are my hot pockets and they aren’t breakfast food.” He says. “Ok so we write that down. Just like that perfect job little Marine. Ok so did Uncle Chrissy say anything?” I ask and he nods. “Ok what did he say?” I ask. “Uncle Chrissy said “I’ll buy you more later and I am an adult I can have anything I want for breakfast. When you are an adult you can have whatever you want for breakfast too.” Do I write that too?” Devon says. “Yes you do look at you little genius.” I say with a smile I didn’t notice till this point that Scarlett has been recording this whole thing so I give her a quick smile. “Ok what else happened?” I ask. “He ate my hot pocket.” He says. “Ok was anyone injured?” I ask. “No.” He says. “Ok were there any witnesses?” I ask. “What is a witness?” He asks. “A witness is someone who saw it happen. So was anyone there and see it happen?” I ask. “Yeah Mommy was there.” He says. “Ok then we fill that in.” I say. “Ok now finally we write who is making the report  which is you and so you write your name. Then where it says position and department you don’t have to worry about it.” I say. “I can say my position is kid and the department is family.” He says damn he’s smart for a six year old. “How do you know what position and department mean?” I ask. “It’s on your other paper, silly.” He says pointing to the report I had just been working on. “Ok so here we are. You just filled in your very first incident report.” I tell him.

“You did great.” Scarlett says. “What do we do with it now?” Devon asks. “Well normally I give them to my commanding officer which right now is General Banes.” I tell him. “Then let’s go give it to him.” Devon says. “Yeah I think that’s a great idea.” Greg pipes up. “Ok let’s go to the General then and turn in the report I have to turn this one on too anyway. Come on little Marine.” I say grabbing both reports and then Devon’s hand and we walk out of the office and towards General Banes office. “Ok knock on the door.” I tell Devon and he does and he changes his body posture to match mine. “Eintreten(Enter)!” He calls out. “That means enter.” I tell Devon and he opens the door and stands at attention just like me. “Hello Devon, what do I owe the pleasure of your visit?” He asks returning Devon and I’s salute and telling us to stand at ease. “I have an Incident report to give you Sir.” Devon says trying to mimic my Marine voice it’s quite adorable. “And I have the incident report from what happened the other day Sir.” I tell him. “Oh your uncle ate your hot pocket huh? That’s very serious, don't worry I will talk to him and it shouldn’t happen again. You did very well on filling this out.” Banes says. “Thank you Sir. Colonel Mama helped me.” He says. “Is that all you two?” He asks us. “Yes Sir.” I say. “Both of you  are dismissed.” He says and we give him another salute before heading back to my office. I think that was one of the cutest things Devon has ever done and the way he tried to mimic me made my heart melt.
