Have some smut because I've been out for a bit :)
Mitch Pov
I laid in bed listening to the muffled yells as Scott and his father fought again. I closed my eyes and ran my hands over my eyes. I curled up when the yelling got louder and the front door slammed shut.
Scott and his father always argue about the military. Scott's dad and gotten him a spot but Scott declined it after he found out I was still really sick. I heard Scott stomp up the stairs, but his footsteps softened as he got closer to out room.
He opened the door slowly and peeked in to see if I was awoken from the yelling. I opened my eyes and looked up at him.
"I'm sorry for waking you up baby." He stepped in and gingerly shut the door. I sat up slowly as Scott sat down on the edge of the bad next to me.
"What did your dad say?" I grabbed his big hands with my small ones.
"I-I have no c-choice. I-I have to go with him." I could tell he was holding back his tears. I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes as I climbed onto his lap and embraced him tightly. I felt the warm tears slide down my cheeks and soon felt my shoulder getting wet from Scott's tears.
"W-when do you l-leave?" I asked with a shaky voice.
"T-three days." This answer only made me cry harder. Scott held me tighter and we cried in each others arms for the next hour or two. After that I remember Scott cradling me and falling asleep in his arms.
Much as I expected those three days went by too fast. Before I knew it Scott was packing essentials and getting ready to leave.
I was near tears again when we both walked out the door and got into the car. The drive to the airport was silent but millions of words were said. Once we had gotten there I clung to Scott's side as we walked through security and to his gate.
When we got to the gate we saw many other couples embracing and kissing deeply before their loved one left. The announcement was made and Scott pulled me into a tight hug and kissed me deeply. Cries could be heard as loved ones walked away and boarded the plane.
Then all too soon I was another cry in the crowd as Scott walked away in near tears. I dropped to my knees along with a few other people and cried into my hands. Then out of no where I felt a pair of small, yet loving arms, wrap around me.
I looked up and saw my good friend, Ellie, hugging me. Her husband, Peter, was in the military also.
"It'll be okay Mitchy." She said while rubbing my back softly. She helped me up and made sure I got to my car safely.
Once we made it to my car she leaned on the door and kissed my head, which didn't help because it only made me feel shorter. Her and Peter are very tall, like very very tall.
"Wanna go get coffee with me?"
"Sure." I said softly.
"Meet me at the Starbucks by your house then babe." She hugged me tightly and rubbed my back. I laid my head on her chest and sighed.
"It'll be okay." She said trying to comfort me. I nodded again meekly and pulled away. She smiled weakly and I could see her pain now too. Without any words being spoken we both got into our cars and drove to the coffee shop.
Once we got there we found each other and sat down, each of us holding a coffee and cookie of some type. She looked down at her lap before looking up again at me.
"Are you okay?" I asked leaning forward. She nodded and put her sleeves over her hands.
"Yeah I'm okay. " I nodded and leaned back softly, putting my hand on my stomach.
