  The sun rose over the tall buildings of the now waking city of Coruscant, a woman stood looking out from a platform. Her sigh seemed to suggest that she still had tears in her eyes but tried hard to hold them in. She felt a hand grab her shoulder, she turned to see a trooper. She smiled, though, the smile soon faded as he took off the helmet, their eyes met and she turned away, it was not the trooper she was hoping it was.

The trooper frowned, he understood her feelings, he too missed him. The feeling in the air was cold and at moments even unwelcoming, but he stayed and even approached her. 'I am sorry I am late...' He stated as he wrapped his arms around her.

The woman tried hard to hold back her tears as she wrapped her arms around him. She dug her head into his chest, she didn't dare to say a single word, neither did he. They stood there, in each others embrace, quietly. The woman felt tears land on her head, she looked up to see the troopers eyes closed and the tears still streaming down from them. She reached up and wiped away the tears, the trooper opened his now red eyes that seemed to state his emotions of sadness.

'Boil...' she said, her voice seemed careful. She did not want him to think she was being cruel or unemotional, though, Boil knew every well that her simple act of acknowledgment of him was enough. Her {e/c} seemed to beg him to stop his tears which he could not do.

As he gasped for air with every breath he drew, his tears seemed to hurt him even more and they seemed to hurt her as well. They sat at the edge of the platform, she held him close as his cries grew louder and even heavier. She fought to keep her tears from rising, soon her tears fell. The thought of him made their hearts hurt, this kind of pain wouldn't be easy to get over.

The man wasn't some random clone brethren that both could get over within a thirty-six-hour timeline. The man was important, he was a lover to {Name} and a true brother to Boil, the troopers absence was noticed and felt by both.

'I miss him so much.' her voice was cracked, she had closed her eyes as the light hit them. Boil watched as her tears shined in the light and on the spur of the moment, Boil had gently moved {Name}'s head, she opened her eyes to be met with his brown ones. He was an inch away from her, his eyes scanned her face. He was looking for some kind of sign, something to stop him, but his body moved forward and their lips met.

The kiss only lasted a few seconds but to them it seemed to have lasted longer, {Name} stood up and frowned at Boil, who stood up as well. {Name}'s look was mixed, but the most dominant emotion that finally stayed on her face was disgust.

'Why would you do that?!' she yelled at Boil, he yelled out to state that she did not tell him to stop. {Name} was angry, she moved her arms around as he grabbed her and held her.

'I'm sorry...'
