This is War (A MunchingBrotato One-Shot)

"Tyler... are you sure about this?" I asked my boyfriend, Tyler Christie, as he was setting off to Iraq.

"I have to help the country. They're counting on me." He answered, while kissing my forehead.

I grabbed him by the wrist and embraced him into a hug. "I love you... don't forget that." I whispered in his ear, tears forming up in my eyes. I sniffed a little.

"I love you, too, Katie-poo." he replied, wiping away the tears flowing down my cheeks. He kissed me one last time.

"Yo! Sergant Christie! You coming?!" Tyler's teammate yelled at him. I was crying at full speed now. I'll never feel safe around his arms, never be able to kiss him good night and good morning, I won't be able to be with him.

"Don't worry, Katie... I'll be back. I love you no matter what." he said. He hugged me and he was gone. The helicopter was already setting off. I gloomly went back home. I took out my phone and texted him.

I love you. <3

No reply.

"20 year old, Tyler Christie has gone MIA. The first MIA in Iraq." I heard the newsreporter say as my heart dropped. I broke a few plates in the time being. I heard the same guy who told Tyler to hurry into the plane. "Last time we saw him, he was cleaning and refilling the guns with ammo. When we came back, he was gone. With no trace."

I took out my phone and checked our last message together. I started crying. It said...

I love you, too. <3

Tyler was standing there, texting someone...

My phone dinged. The text meassge read-

Missed you

I hugged him. "I missed you, too..."
