I'm standing in the sarge's office with Georgie on the outside I'm as cool as a cucumber on the inside I'm a mess. "So you's are probably wondering why I called yous in here" "yes boss" the brig is coming later he wants to see the 3 of us." The brig aka the brigadier a senior rank in the army just below a major general. They normally don't get involved in platoon business so fuck knows what's going on right now. "Any clue as to why boss" my voice sounding more calm then I actually am "no he never said but be presentable and please Chris I'm begging make sure poff is on his best behaviour" "I will certainly try boss" "ok go change back into uniform he will be here in an hour" "yes boss."

As we leave the office I see Leah coming down the corridor and no one with her "Leah what are you doing? Where's poff?" "I'll catch you soon Chris." Georgie heads to her room "poffs asleep so I snuck out." "LEAH!" "I know but I wanted to see you alone" how can I stay mad at that gorgeous face damn this is hard "come with me" she follows me into Georgie's medical room and I lock the door. "Leah I would love nothing more for us to actually get some alone time together but what you just did was so dangerous" "your right and for that I'm sorry but I'm not sorry for what I'm about to tell you though" "and what would that be?" "Steph swapped rooms with Kim so we can spend some time together" "aww she really is sweet" "yes now can I have my kiss seeing as we have not had one today?" "Like I can say no to you."

We end up making out for a good 15 minutes "Leah" "yeah?" "We need to go up to the room I need to change into my uniform someone higher up is coming to see me" "is everything alright?" "I'm not sure I'll find out in 45 minutes." when we reach the room I wake poff up "dude you need to get ready the brig is coming and please be on your best behaviour otherwise your going to get me in shit with the boss" "al be cool Chris" "and for fuck sake if he does speak to you don't talk like that" "this is just how I talk innit" "not in-front of the brig you don't." I go to my room and gather my uniform then head to the bathroom to change "for fuck sake I've picked up poffs top why is his stuff near mine?"

I leave the bathroom in my combat pants and sports bra on and I knock on the door "poff I've picked up your top give me mine" you see all the girls staring at you "what? Is there something on me?" Steph walks past you and whispers "yes there is it's called muscle" I have to laugh because all of these women are seriously toned "poff give me my fucking top before I'm attacked out here" he opens the door "here" "don't be mad at me keep your shit away from mine." I put my top on them go back into the bathroom to do my bun but my hair is not wanting to play ball today "FUCK SAKE!!" Beth comes in "everything alright?" "My fucking hair is being a cock" "it looks fine" "we can't have a hair out of place especially when the brigadier is coming!" Steph comes in as do most of the girls so Steph takes control "right everyone out Leah help me with Chris" "ok."

Everyone leaves and Leah comes over to you holding your face "Chris talk to me what's going on? Your really shaking" "the brigadier is coming and he wants to see me Georgie and the sarge Leah what if they know what's going on too many people know" "only Steph knows and she hasn't told anyone" "no I promise I haven't" "Georgie knows" "do you think she would of told anyone?" "No but if it has slipped up" "Chris whatever happens it happens to both of us ok please don't give up on us" "I won't I promise." Leah gives me a quick kiss and they both help me with my hair then it's time to head down to the canteen I'm so nervous right now kingie comes up.

"2 SECTION!" We all stand to attention "line up" we all line up and the brig walks in sarge and kingie stand to attention and we all salute he salutes us "at ease to 2 section" we stand at ease "Sargent James private Taylor and private Lane step forward" shit! It's happening I'm done for bollocks bollocks fuck shit "yous 3 are hard to get hold of going straight from a tour in Iraq to protection here first Private Lane Private Taylor your work in the army is exemplary" wait what the fuck is happening? "So without delay I would like to present 2 section with 2 new officers Sargent Lane and Sargent Taylor" it is taking everything to not to jump grab Leah and celebrate with her. Not even Georgie but Leah wow I really am falling for this woman "thank you sir" "no thank you Sargent." ok I never actually thought this day would come but now it has I can't believe it "now Sargent James step forward" "2 section allow me to present to you captain Charlie James. Congratulations you 3 I look forward to the celebrations when this mission is over" kingie stands to attention "2 SECTION OFFICER LEAVING." we all stand to attention and the brig leaves.

Everyone stands there is shock until me and my big mouth "WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED!!" The platoon jump on us cheering "party at the end of this" "any excuse for a party brains" "guys I'll be back in a minute I'm just popping to the toilet" as I'm walking down the corridor I hear Georgie run after me "Chris wait" "what's up?" She hands me a key "here your going to need this" I look and it's the key to her med room "why?" "You'll see go straight there" "right ok." I go straight to the medical room and wait as instructed. Not too long later the door quietly open and I see the blonde hair first I know exactly who this is now I'm really excited. As Leah comes in she has a big smile on her face I run over to her picking her up and spinning her around "congratulations Sargent" "thank you" she puts her hand on my cheek "seriously Chris you should be so proud" I'm just staring into her eyes "are you going to put me down?" "No but I'm going to kiss you" "stop talking then." I do so and kiss Leah and again everything in the world feels so right I feel complete right now.

There is a knock on the door "shit" "it's ok it's just Steph she is keeping an eye out for us" "sorry to interrupt but we should go back before people get suspicious" "ok thanks Steph I do actually need to go the the toilet thou so I will meet yous in the canteen" "we are moving to the chill room" "ok I will meet you there." Leah and Steph leave first then I head to the bathroom to use the toilet I still can't believe today I'm now a Sargent. Once I finish I run up to the apartment and grab my guitar running back to the chill room "did someone request a song" "weyyyy there she is I was wondering what was taking so long" "well boss I think we have cause for celebration here." I pull out the guitar and we all start singing along even the arsenal team. I have to stop myself from looking at Leah I know if I do then I will never look away. As the night progresses the songs get more upbeat and we all end dancing about aswell it has been the most fun we have had for a hell of a long time, but it's now late and it's game day tomorrow so time to head back to the apartment.

We are walking along the corridor when I hear a thud "shhh everyone be quiet" I can hear whispering "poff get the girls behind you up against the wall everyone don't move" I radio through "backup needed corridor C someone's in the building." Before I know it fingers is at my side "we have at least 2 down corridor B" "I've got your back sarge" "poff when we storm you throw Leah over your shoulder and rush the girls to the apartment" "got it" "no Chris" I look at Leah "no one argues yous do as your told all of you. On 3 1,2" I draw my side arm and take a breath "3" me and fingers round the corner guns at aim "don't move stay where you are" "don't shoot please" "up against the wall now move it. Who are yous?" "My names Sam and this is Louise" I search them "what you doing here?" "We are fans we wanted to see the team we heard they were staying here we snuck in we're sorry" I turn them around they are just kids "how old are yous?" "14 we are 14" me and fingers put our guns away "come with us we will phone your parents to collect you what yous did was very stupid." We take them to the captains office and he phones for their parents and they are told anything like this again and charges will be pressed and they are taken home.

I make my way up to the apartment what am I going to do about Leah she almost give us away and also tried to disobey an order that was to keep her safe not just her but her team mates. I get into the apartment and collapse on the sofa I will have to deal with the situation tomorrow so I get changed into my shorts and vest lie down and close my eyes. "Chris?" You've got to be fucking joking me right now "yeah?" "Are you alright?" "Yeah" "really because you haven't opened your eyes to look at me" I sigh and open my eyes sitting up I pat the sofa beside me and Leah takes a seat beside me "Leah I can't have you disobeying orders like that you could of put you and your team mates in danger" "I'm sorry I was scared something might happen to you" "I get that but this is my job. My first most important job is to keep you all safe no matter the cost Leah and you could of give us away aswell" "yeah I had to answer some questions but just said are yous not bothered if something happens to you that stopped the questions." "See Leah please we have to be careful" "I'm sorry I will go back to my room" "werwwww not before my cuddle" I realised I was being strict and that this is my life not hers so I'm used to the orders and everything. This is all new to Leah so I gave her some slack this time. Next time I kick her arse.
