The year was 1939. News of a war had started as everyone was not in a panic in Great Britain,they thought it was just gossip and nonsense. But it wasn't,it definitely wasn't.

In London,two men were holding a house party,inviting friends and neighbours to join in.
' ' would you like another drink..?' William asked as he sat next to Alex..looking down at him with a smug gaze
' ' I'm quite alright..' Alex grinned as he watched the people leave..it was late and people would be having their tea by now. They both said their goodbyes as they closed the door. Wilbur took Alex's waist and kissed his cheek ' ' I've been waiting for that..' he smirked as Alex turned a pinkish blush all across his face. ' ' your no good..' Alex grumbled as a knock on the door interrupted the two,his blush disappeared and they let go of each other, Wilbur answering the door.

A quote strong looking man with military badges displayed on his uniform was on their doorstep with two letters.
' ' is this the property of Alex smith and William gold..? ' The man who spoke had a thick northern accent.
' ' yes sir..' Alex spoke.
' ' you both are being drafted.

What..?
The words hit them like a truck as they stared at the letters they were handed,the man simply leaving,he had bigger fish to fry obviously as Alex stared at Wilbur then the letter.
' ' what.. this can't be serious..' William stared at the paper. He clenched it so hard the sides started to crumble underneath his grip.
' ' this is nonsense! ' Alex huffed,reading the letter.  It went something like this.

**dear Alex smith.**
You are being drafted to work on the frontlines for your country. You will be sent to France on the 3rd day of the 10th month ( tomorrow) please report to the community hall at  2 pm and the docks at half 2 pm. Your country needs you.

DISCLAIMER
If you have any medical experience,report that to the head officer at the community hall when you go to be drafted. Assistant is needed.
Signed deputy commissioner,Robert mulligan.

Alex read it.
' ' I have medical experience..? I might do that..' he mumbled as Wilbur nodded his head in agreement.
' ' you'll be a good medic..your good with your hands..' he winked at him as Alex blushed.
They were still semi in shock as they remembered the details and mentally prepared themselves for what was ahead. It was already late,so they'd have their tea and go up to bed. Alex was nervous as he slept in with Wilbur.

The next day followed,they both got up bright and early as they found a picture of them both and cut each-others faces out.
' ' put this in your locket so if we loose each other we can find us again ' Alex mumbled as he put Wilbur's photo into his own.
' ' how?!? These are to complicated!' Wilbur struggled to fit the photo inside the small locket.
' ' here let me try I have smaller hands..' Alex whispered as he took the locket and the photo,putting it inside neatly for him. ' there.

Wilbur smiled as he kept it close to his heart.
' ' promise me Alex..' Wilbur took his hand..staring into his eyes as Alex looked at him nervously.
' ' we're going into this blind..I want you to know that if neither of us makes it- I've always adored you.. even tho your a pain in the ass sometimes I can't help but love ya..' Wilbur grinned as he sniffed..smiling at him as Alex cackled.
' ' if anything happens I'm never ganna even try to replace you.' Alex swore,crossing his heart as he stood up,looking at the clock.
' ' let's get going..' Alex nodded to him as Wilbur stood up and followed him. They walked to the community hall,where they were given a visa and new passport..Alex's photo was a mess.. it looked sorta like this,tho the camera quality wasn't the best.

Wilbur was next,he had some trouble fitting into the frame because of his height,but he squeezed in and this is what his photo looked like

They were smiling..they really didn't think this drafting would be a big deal, no idea what was ahead as they went to the docks. They were officially administered.
They walked onto the kinda cramped boat and found a place to sit where they shared a cereal bar and chatted.
' ' wait a dam minute..Wilbur look at that kid..' Alex mumbled as a small,scrawny and blonde headed boy stumbled through the crowd in a uniform that looks way to big.
' ' holly shit..how old is he?!? ' Wilbur grumbled,his face stuffed with food as Alex stared at him and rolled his eyes.
' ' much to young,he isn't a day over 16! ' Alex mumbled..
' ' yeah he shouldn't be here..' Wilbur rolled his eyes as he noticed Alex judging him..
' ' call him over he looks lost..' Alex pointed out as Wilbur stood up and dusted off his t shirt.
' ' HEY KID! COME OVER HERE! ' Wilbur called out as the scrawny blonde stumbled over.
' ' yeah? ' he sounded like he was from around central London..Alex and Wilbur exchanged glances.
' ' what's your name kid? ' Alex asked as he pat the floor next to him,gesturing to sit as he did just that.
' ' I'm tommy..! Yous? ' he grinned,he thought these two looks like hero's with their muscles and tight t shirts,when really they were just two unlucky dudes.
' ' I'm Alex and-'  Wilbur cut him off.
' ' I'm Wilbur..the better one of this duo..' wilbur winked at alex..grinning as he  reached across and shook his hand, tommy laughed.
' ' say..how old are you kid? ' Alex asked as he quickly bonked Wilbur on the head.
' ' am 14! Ik..amazing..' he grinned and pretended to show off his muscles when really his arms were those of twigs..

Wilbur and Alex exchanged a worried glance.
' ' are you old enough for this? ' Wilbur mumbled.
' ' uh..no but- shush I need to get out of the orphanage..and I say this will be grand! ' tommy smiled..Alex and Wilbur nodded in agreement as the 3 chatted,Alex kinda snuggled up to Wilbur as it had gotten cold..yes they were MENT to hide their relationship but,sometimes you just need a snuggle.
' ' so..how old are yous? ' tommy questioned.
' ' I'm 18 he's 19..' Alex mumbled as he rested into Wilbur's arms..Wilbur's chin rested on Alex's head as he nodded..the boat finally started to move as most people were asleep. Tommy being one.

' ' yk..' Wilbur whispered as he played with Alex's hair..they lay back and listens to the waves,watching the stars*
' ' I've always dreamed of a daughter- or even some sorta kid that we could look after.. call our own..' Wilbur whispered as Alex nodded..listening.
' '. Would've called her tallulah..little lulah running around calling our names..' he started to say dream and whisper sweet nothings into his ear..Alex was half asleep..they were both dazed as they shared a soft kiss and fell asleep in each others arms.
