"Marshall!" You yelled banging on his door at 10:00 at night extremely angry at him.

The door flew open and there stood Marshall in a pretty big sweat shirt some worn sweat pants and an exhausted look on his face from working extra hours at Gilbert's lodge.

"Y/N Can you please not yell at me now i'm exhausted." He begged knowing he had this yelling coming.

"No it cannot wait, you almost made me lose my job!!" You yelled.

"Y/N...i'm sorry but what was I supposed to do I was hungry!" He yelled.

You gave a sigh knowing that Marshall had been extremely tight with money recently and he really wouldn't have done what he did if he wasn't extremely desperate which he was.

Marshall stepped down two steps of the porch so that he was directly facing you and you wish he wasn't because he looked absolutely worn and beaten down.

And you hated to see him like that, but you weren't in any better condition than he was.

"Marshall, I covered your bill but now I have no money to buy my kids dinner so unless you can pay me back my babies are going to be eating captain crunch cereal for dinner." You said not trying to make him feel guilty..but to open his eyes that he wasn't the only one who had problems.

His face turned into an even deeper stressed out frown as he sighed and motioned for you to come into his small messy house.

"Where's Kim?" You asked not seeing the blonde around.

"She left." He bluntly said going over to his fridge and opening it.

"Oh." You said knowing their relationship had been on and off for quite a while now.

"Here." He said handing you a pack of bologna  a can of ravioli and some club crackers. "That's seriously all I got right now." He said.

"Thanks, they'll appreciate it." You said.  "You have anything for dinner?" You asked wondering if the man had anything to eat.

"Yup, I managed to get some reject french fries and reject steak." He smiled.

"Ooh hit the jackpot tonight." You smiled back.

"Might get food poisoning but whatever." He said tiredly sitting on the couch next to you.

It was completely silent in the room for a moment as two very broken down people sat a minute and reflected.

One was a single mom of  three kids and the father was in jail after he committed an assault against a police officer who confronted him of selling coke. Later when he actually got out she asked him if he was going to help take care of their kids but she found he already had another girl and had no intention in raising any kids.

Because he couldn't even help himself.

The second was a white man living in Detroit trying to become a rapper while working double shifts to support his pregnant girlfriend who had just left him over another stupid argument that they had. 

Both were worn down and completely stuck.

"Walk me to the store?" She says suddenly.

"Sure let's go." He said tiredly.

He grabbed his old red looking hoodie that was getting to be to tattered to wash.

They walked down to the corner store where there was a small mini mart that had groceries. Some of the things might be expired already but no one really complained as long as the meat and vegetables were fresh.

They entered the store and was greeted by Anya an older lady who had moved to America from Russia when she was 10. She still had a slight accent but over the years her accent faded but her smile never did. She was one of the rare gems.

"Good evening Y/N, and Marshall right?" she asked smiling.

"Hey Anya." The two of them greeted the woman behind the counter.

"Hey beautiful, where you been?" A man said suddenly walking up to her.

"Ashton I'm not going on a date with you." She sighed tired of going through this.

"Alright, worth trying." He said.

" I'll take this." He said throwing a bag of chips on the counter along with a bottle of ciroc and vodka.

She was so tired of seeing such strong men give up so easily on themselves. Thats one of the main reasons she never went after Ashton Winters. Ashton was a really cute guy..but what he had in looks he lacked every where else.

Ashton grabbed his things after paying with some money he had stolen from his ex girlfriends. And quickly hustled out into a sad reality.

"Y/N your  absolutely right you can do better." Anya said once he left.

Marshall hadn't said much since you two had gotten there. And you looked over and saw him sprawled out in the middle of the canned good aisle.

You quickly ran over to see if he was okay.

"Marshall what are yo-" he cut you off with a groan.

"We hit rock bottom." He said.

"Yeah cause we're only human, we fall sometimes." You explained laying down in the middle of the aisle with him.

"I promise I'm gonna get us all out of here." He said his voice lacking conviction but she knew he meant it.

"I'm looking forward too it." You smiled.

" And then.." His voice trailed off.

"And then?" You asked wondering what exactly did come next.

"You won't have to cry anymore." He said. "Your my family and I hate seeing my family cry." He said shifting his head to look at you.

"Then we better get back to 8 mile then.. Its getting late." Was the only thing you could say after such a statement.

"Alright.." He got up and you realized.

He was a soldier. But only human after all.
