Nick Vaughn and Caroline Woods were high school sweethearts and had been dating since the 9th grade. Two weeks after their high school graduation, Nick enlisted in the Army and was sent off to war in Afghanistan.
After being gone for a year, he was...

The next morning, I woke up around six and got ready for the day. By seven, I noticed that Logan still wasn't up, so I went to check on him. He was still fast asleep and I wasn't sure whether to wake him up or not. He's usually gone to work by now...
"Logan?" I yell from the doorway. He kind of moans and turns over. "Shouldn't you be getting ready for work?"
"No, I've got the day off..." He mumbles.
"Oops... My bad." I turn around and shut the door. I'm sure he'll probably go back to sleep anyway.
I go into the living room and log onto my laptop. Andrea should be contacting me about some houses soon, so I checked my emails and sure enough, she had messaged me late last night. I pulled the email up and read:
Good Evening, Caroline!
I have been doing a little house hunting for you today and I found three houses that fit your description. I have attached their information with this email, so take a look and let me know which one(s) grab your attention!
I Look Forward To Working with You,
Andrea
I click on the first link and see a clean, white two story house. First, I check the description. It says it has three bedrooms, two baths, a large kitchen, and two car garage. I then start to click through the pictures as Logan walks in.
"What are you doing?" He asks, sitting down beside me.
"My real estate agent sent me some houses to look at... Sorry, I woke you."
"Its fine, I needed to get up anyway. So, is this the first house?"
"Yep, pretty nice, eh?"
He gazes on as I continue through the pictures. Once I get back to the beginning, he points to the edge of the screen. "See that?"
"What?"
"Right there," He points again, "That's dry rotted. Trust me, you don't want that house."
"Okay, let's look at the next one..." I click on the second link and a one-story brick house appears.
"Same problem." He says and points to the side of the front porch.
I glare at him.
"What? I'm just warning you, you don't want to get involved with something like that, it'll cost you a lot of money."
"You're ruining my enthusiasm, Logan."
"Better ruin it now than wait and let you pay for an inspector to come out and tell you the same thing that I just did."
I groan and click on my last option. God, I hope this one is okay...
"Whoa." This looks perfect from the outside! It's a gray stone, two story house. It seems to have a pretty decent yard and it says it even has a full basement. "Holy crap!" I shriek once I see the kitchen. It's fully updated, all stainless steel appliances, white cabinets, and light blue walls. "Wait, before I get excited, is there anything wrong with this one?" I ask as Logan takes control of the mouse and takes a closer look at each picture.
