Indian Ocean
Naomi POV:
"Damnit!" I said as I as leveled out my plane. Today we were doing a test, or as iceman called it, "A-who's-the-best-pilot",test.
"You're outta here Aphrodite." Said viper as her flew next to me and then back above the clouds.
"Everyone's down, return to base." Added jester as iceman came in next to me from the right. He grinned at me and then swooped down to the ship. We landed and I stepped out and took my helmet off.
I made it inside but was stopped by ice almost immediately.
"So have you figured it out yet?" He asked, having that same annoying smug smile on his face.
"Figured what out?" I asked.
"Who's the best pilot.." he responded.
"Yeah, I think I have a hunch." I walked away and he just laughed to himself.
"No points for second place, Davis!" He shouted before I turned the corner.
I headed back to my small room I fortunately got to myself because I was a girl. I started taking off my flight gear and changing into something more comfortable. Right as I took my hair down from a bun I heard the phone ring. I ignored it because I don't get any calls.
"Davis! It's for you." Shouted a crewman. Well then.
I quickly walked over to the phone and picked it up.
"Hello?"
"Hey doll." Oh my fucking god. Dallas Winston.
"Oh hey dal'.." you could hear the change in my voice that my smile was making. It's like you could hear it.
"So..I got your letter. I'm uh..sorry that happened to your father.."
"Don't be..he's better now."
"And uh..everyone liked their gifts.." he continued.
"Including you?" He chuckled.
"Including me." He said smiling. We got quiet for a second.
"Uhm.." he started
"Yeah?"
"Listen you better come back."
"I will, I promise."
"That's a big promise Naomi. You could be gone in an instant..and honestly, I don't know what to do without you." His voice got sadder the more he spoke, I've never thought Dallas Winston would be so emotional, especially over someone like me.
"I love you dal'.." I said quietly.
"I love you too doll.." and with that he hung up.
—————
Later that night I sat in my bed thinking about what dally had said. It played over and over in my head.
"You could be gone in an instant." I wanted to say "that's not true" or "no I won't" but I already made one promise that I know I can't keep, why should I make another. I hate telling dally that I will come back to him, even though I know I have a small chance of doing so.
"I don't know what I would do without you." Was the second thing that rang in my ears.
Well, first he would be back to regular dally. Second he would probably drink all the beers in my fridge. I don't see much changing if I was gone. I felt bad, guilty, vulnerable, ashamed, everything. I felt love for dally, and I felt fear for what might happen if I don't keep my promise. I feel angry for not telling him In person where I was going or about my dad. I feel lonely. I feel it all.
That night I sat in my bed crying.
