It was his last free day until he came back. He had made through so much in so little time, so he didnt know how to handle it. Except go text Emily, which he was scared to do. But then Max thought in his head:" I'm going through war, pain, and no shoulder to cry on. And I'm scared to text one of my best friends??" And he worked up the courage to get to his phone and turn it on....

Only to see the shocking text that Enily had sent him. He put down the phone, thinking about what had happened. He also lost all of the courage that he had gained, and tried to work up the courage to pick up the phone. He did, and sent Emily back a text

As he sent it, he thought about the song that she showed him back in high school. He couldn't stop thinking about it, and then looked up to see Flynn looking down at him. "What's the matter Max? You have to be enjoying today, it's your last day off!"

Mac sighed, and showed him the text. He then dropped the phone and roared with laughter. Max caught the phone, and put it on his bed where he found the text. Flynn got up and laughed a little more. "Ahhhh, hehe my boy. So this one really does like you then? I can't see why not. She has the right idea." Max tried to understand what had happened, when Flynn sat on the edge of his bed and pated it, beckoning him to sit down. "My boy, I think I finally understand why you came here after all. You like her, I can see that. Did anything related to this happen in the past?" And max thought, and realized the song she showed him. He explained that day to him, and showed him the song on his phone. After, Flynn spoke some more. "Son, you like her so much, that you knew that this was the only way to impress her. You had to do something big, bold and beautiful to show the girl you love her. The song got to me, I admit. But listen here and listen well. This girl you like so much? Have you even called her to talk? I bet she misses you. I bet she thinks that you'll forget about her. Well don't let her think that. Call her, right now. That's an order mister." Max picked up the phone and dialed her number, shaking like a wet chihuahua. He knew that she had set her number to go to voicemail at the 6th ring. And the phone started to ring

1 ring, 2 rings, 3 rings "c'mon Emily, I know you can pick up, pick up for me."

4 rings 5 rings... And then someone spoke on the other end of the line. "Hello? Who is this?"

"Uhh, it's Max. Is this Emily?"

"No, I'm sorry. This is her mother.

Listen Max, about that text earlier, it wasn't Emily. It was me. I got a bit a crazy last night and my drunk self thought I was doing Emily a favor. I'm terribly sorry."

"It's alright Miss. I just need to talk to her."

"She saw the text and kinda freaked out and passed out. So would you like me to take a message?"

"Yeah, tell Emily that I say hi, and this is my last free day. Also tell her... I love her and I miss her so much..."

There was silence and a little "aww" on the end of the line

"Sure, you're a good man max. Keep serving our country."

"T-thank you maam. Good day"

"Good day Max."

And the line went dead. Max put the phone on charge on the plug in the wall, and went to hang out with his buddies.

Emily and Kaylee watched Wipeout in Emily's room and rolled on the bed with laughter until her mother came in and jumped around with Emily's phone in hand. She was looking like a 5 year old girl, jumping and squealing. "Mom, what's up??" Emily said. Her mother stopped and smoothed down her skirt. "Honey, it seems I haven't made any mistake about sending that message!!!" And she jumped around again. Kaylee got up and started speaking, her voice dry from laughing. "So wait, you're HAPPY that you ruined her one and only crush ever!?!?! Pffft, what a sick mom you have gurl."

"Honey, Max just called me."

Emily stopped and jumped off the bed, fell to the floor, and climbed up Kaylee to get to her feet. "H-he did?, what did he say?"

"Hon, good news and bad news. Which one did you wanna hear first?"

Kaylee and Emily agreed to hear the bad news first. "Bad news is that this is his last day before he comes back. Good news is....is........" And Emilys mom absolutely lost it there. She started to cry and said how big she was getting and go on and on. "Mom, can you please tell me?"

"He said he loved you and he misses you so much."

They had a screaming fest. Kaylee and Emily grabbed eachother's arms and jumped around like teens would. They took the phone from their mom and Emily hugged it. She texted him back as well:

"I, I can't believe you like me. Max, I love you too. I've loved you for awhile, and just...omfg. ily ily ily!!!

And she sent the text. As it sent, the song slowly replayed in her head, filling her mind with a melodious tune as Kaylees mom knocked on their front door to pick Kaylee up.
