Erin and I pull up to Jays apartment. "She unlocks his apartment and I go to the guest room where I'm staying. I go to the closest as Erin comes in. "I don't know what to wear tomorrow and while I'm under cover." "You want a hoodie because your gonna have a vest on at all times." Erin says grabbing a hoodie to big for me out of my closest. "One neon zip up hoodie and grab some leggings and a little purse for extra 9mm ammunition. "I don't have one" I say. "I have a few you can choose from." She says helping me pack my stuff. We head out and head to Erin's apartment. When we get there I grab my stuff and follow her. We walk in and she sits on her couch. "You want to order pizza" Erin asks "sure" "what kind" "mushroom and black olives" "ok" Erin responds picking up her phone I unpack my stuff and grab my dog tags. I have one with my name and another with Jays name on it. I look down at them and think to myself, where did I go wrong. "What's up kiddo" Erin says noticing I'm feeling sad. I hand her my dog tags. "I don't know where I went wrong in my life seven years ago. I screwed up and my family paid the price for my work." "They would have been proud, they were proud, they knew you were doing what you enjoy and was right, and good for your country" she says embracing me into a hug. "Your right but I miss them so much" I say. "Hey you got any stories about you, Jay, Mouse, and the others while in Afghanistan?" Erin asks laughing I mange to say "ohh there are so many". The door bell ringing. Erin answers the door and pays for the Pizza. She sets it on the counter as I I sit on a chair facing the island. She tosses me a few paper plates and opens the box we grab some of the pizza and talk. After I'm done eating I ask Erin "are you and Jay dating" as she looks at me at a loss of words. "I take that as a yes" I say laughing. "It's late you can sleep in the guest room or on the couch" Erin says heading into her room. I lay down on the couch lights on in all, and fall asleep.
