Steam. The steam was the last thing that she wanted to see as She held tight to her son. Thomas, Age 21, looking at him, duffle bag on his back, ready to head to train, to fight against a local enemy. With teary eyes, she stares up at her curly haired son with a weak smile.
"Of all the things you could promise me my son," thick tears began streaming down her face as she dabbed them away with her tissue,"Please be safe, and take care of yourself. Most of all please come back home. "
"That I will try to do mother, I promise, everything will be alright.." He smiles weakly, his own eyes filling with tears as his mother grabs him tight for final and last hug goodbye as his train pulls into the station.
"ALL ABOARD!" The conductor called out, the words shooting straight through both of their hearts.
"I guess this is goodbye... " stated Tom Slowly turning towards the train, "For now. "
Kissing his mother's head he slowly begins to walk towards the train, stepping up into the train, looking back at his mother a final time, seeing her wave, he steps onto the train. Taking his seat he stares silently out the window, as the train slowly pulls away from the station. The scenery quickly changing.
"Excuse me sir, Sir?" Being broken from his trance of blurred trees Tom's head turns up to a young, dirty blonde haired woman in a professional dress attire, "I need your ticket sir. "
"Uh... OH yes. " He fumbles through his bag, "One moment Please. " He hands it to her, "Here it is. "
"Thank you sir. " She stamps it, and hands it back with a smile "My name is Elizabeth. "
"The names...Tom" silence fell for a few seconds then Elizabeth begins to speak again.
"Military?"
"Yes ma'am."
"Are you scared for whatever might happen?" she inquires.
"Do you want the truth?" He chuckles with a slight smirk.
"If that is what you want to give to me. "
"Then I am. Very much so. " He states, "Terrified actually. "
"Either way," she states, "You are brave to serve your country like then, then you are an exceptional man. " She smiled, "If you need anything...and I mean anything please feel free to let me know. "
"I will do. " stated Tom looking back out the window as she slowly walks off . Time passed quickly as the sun soon set over the horizon. A days trip, to his destination, made him feel almost weary, as he stares out looking at the night sky. Most of the people in his car was asleep. His smaller thoughts were soon interrupted by the voice of the female from before breaking the silence.
" Hey!" Tom turned quickly to the sound of the voice. It was Elizabeth, standing there with a weak smile on her face.
"Yes mam?" the moon outside the train lit up his blue eyes as she gestured for him to stand.
"Come, please follow me,but keep quiet."Tom obliged, slowly rising up and following her through the quiet train car. Keeping his balance as she opens the door, towards the end that lead to a storage cart. Stuffed to the brim with larger luggage and crates, the door shuts and comes to a light click.
"What is it that you are -" PHAM! In a split moment Tom suddenly finds his back against the wall. Elizabeth's body is press against his as she kisses his lips softly.
Pulling away she smiles slightly. " I know what you are doing, and I just want to show my appreciation towards you. IF you are willing to let me. "
Nodding in approval, she lifts up his arms and slowly peels off his shirt. Breathing down her neck kisses her down it, with light kisses, pulling the snap button blouse apart he kisses down towards her breast. In a split moment Tom flips her. Slamming her to the wall hard, his kisses getting heavier and heavier as his hand trailed down her sides. Her massaging his chest. It was a hot and heavy frenzy.
"Hey! Have any of you seen my assistant Elizabeth?" A voice echos from the opposite car."Crap. Why now? Hurry get dressed!" She growls as in a frenzy they get their clothes back on. Pushing the door open, Tom's eyes have a saddened look, as she only shoos him on. "I wished I wouldn't have been a tease," she whispers, "But find me again, after your training, and we'll finish what we started. "
Tom nods, quickly walks to his seat, saddened he sits back down, thinking of what could have been.
Soon, he found himself asleep, those exact thought are what he dreamed of, but was awaken as the sun was back over the horizon, as he sat up, looking around he noticed that the train was now pulling away from another train station, and from the corner of his eye, on the side dock, was Elizabeth, staring at him, a small suitcase in hand waving to him, the words "Find Me. " coming from her mouth, before she went out of site.
