Letters From A Soldier

Chapter 9

A month later:

I woke up with a weight on top of my chest and stomach. When I opened my eyes I was met by Camila's head on my chest and the rest of her body wrapped around my stomach. "Cami..." I nudged her making her groan and open her eyes.

"No..." She complained and rolled off of me. I got up from the bed and went to change and shower before she got up herself. I shut the bathroom door and did my daily routine quickly only taking a total of ten minutes. The military taught me how me efficient and quick at the same time. I walked out and she did her routine that took longer. She came down the steps as I finished the pancakes and bacon.

"Hey beautiful, here's breakfast." I said making her smile and kiss my lips gently. We ate, talked, and laughed before I picked up our plates and put them in a sink. "So I think I was supposed to meet my group at the studio today."

"Mm when you come back I'll give you a reward." Camila smirked pushing me into the counter.

"You're making me wanna jump in my Camaro and leave now." I grabbed her hips and pulled her closer. She laid kisses on my neck and purred in my ear before whispering.

"Then you better hurry your cute ass out the door." She giggled into my ear. I grabbed my keys and ran out of the house faster than I did when a drill sergeant was on my ass.

Four hours later...

"Good work you guys! That's it for recording. You can leave. I let out a breath and celebrated internally because after four hours of being sexually frustrated... I can finally go home to her. My band noticed my frustration early on in the day when I broke a pencil in half.

"Long day?" Hayley asked and I let out a huff before opening my car door.

"Camila..." That's all I said before driving away down the street. Fifteen minutes of slow and aggravating drivers I pulled in and parked the car inside the garage. I walked in only to be met with the lights dim, and the candles lit.

"You're back." I turned to the stairs to see Camila in a robe. "Good." She untied the robe and let it fall to the ground. My mouth dried when I saw her in some sexy lingerie. I was so fucked...

It was 5 AM when my phone rang on its loud ringtone. Camila groaned and put her head in her pillow. I sat up and grabbed it looking at the ID. Army Reserve Office... I got up and answered the call downstairs. "Private Carter reporting for duty." I said formally pacing the dining room table.

"You have received orders of deployment to the war zone of Syria on July 10th." I almost dropped the phone from my hand in shock. The speaker went on for two more minutes and then hung up.

"Who was it?" Camila asked and I just closed my eyes and hung my head. "Lakyn... Baby what happened?" She asked in worry and I looked up a single tear streaming down my left cheek.

"I'm getting deployed." I whispered weakly. Camila didn't say anything until she slowly broke down and sobbed into my arms.

"Where, when, how long?" She asked while her voice cracked from the sobs.

"I'm going to Syria, on July 10th, and it's a short 5 month deployment." She cried into my chest and I held her tight. "I'm so sorry Camz." I whispered in her ear.

"D-Don't be sorry... It's your j-job." She gathered her bearings and hugged me close.
