The Creatures: Fluff

ImmortalFox Pt. 2

Alternate Ending #2

>>>>>>>>>>The Day<<<<<<<<<<<

Aleks' POV

Today was the day the troops would return home. I really hope he is okay and not a scratch was made on him. He means the world to me and I don't want him in pain.

The day seemed a lot more gloomy than it actually had turned out to be in the small town. I adjusted my shirt and my hair before sitting on the uncomfortable cushions of our worn-out couch. I guess I need to buy a new one. I waited, waited, and waited. The tension in the room made itself present awhile ago, only growing bigger and bigger witching each minute that had passed. The soldiers were supposed to be hear in the towns around 3:40, right? I glanced at the wall clock. Right now it was 4:28 and no sign of Eddie. My patience was wearing thin and worry began to weigh down my heart. He has to be here.

*Knock knock*

I have never been more anxious in my life to hear that sound. I quickly run to the door, my chest becoming heavy. I swing the door open with tears forming in my eyes at what I saw. Chills ran down my spine at the sight in front of me.

It was Eddie's torn leather jacket that rested in the hands of a male that seemed to be of a higher command. I stared it, my hand over my mouth to hold back the sobs. That's when the tears began to fall.

The officer carefully handed me the jacket, not saying a word. Only a hint of sympathy remained in his eyes. I brought the item of clothing close to my heart, hugging it as if I were hugging Eddie himself. After a long time spent of pain-filled sobs, the officer dressed in the uniform finally spoke.

"I'm sorry about your loss. He was a great man... Eddie was like a brother to me. He had also wanted my to give you this."

He handed me a crisp white envelope, a rare wax symbol over the flap. Before I could look up from the envelope to thank the officer, he had already left.

I closed the door behind me and trudged my way into the living room. The tears stung my eyes even more than the other times I have cried and my hands trembled as they tried to carry the leather jacket in one hand and the letter in the other. My thin shaking legs could barely carry myself over to the couch as I sat myself down. Setting my lover's jacket in my pale lap, I opened up the envelope, pulling out a neatly folded letter. I opened it and read.

Dear Aleks,

If you are reading this letter now, I am dead. I'm sorry that I couldn't make it back to you to be with you one last time. I would do anything to share one last kiss, hug, moment, or second with you again. The reasons why I risked my life for you was that I couldn't stand seeing you helpless, hurt, or dead in my arms. I did my best to protect you. I'm sorry, Aleks. I'm sorry for putting you through all the pain. I'm sorry for ever disagreeing or fighting with you. I can only hope that you will forgive me. Even though I am not with you now, I will always be there watching over you. I love you so much. I love you.

Your Love,

Eddie

I had finally broken into tears. I screamed, wanting Eddie to come back to me. I lost all control over my emotions. I screamed and screamed, thinking that he would come back, but he was dead. Eddie wasn't coming back because he was dead. I wouldn't be able to spend one last moment with him to tell him how much I loved him. Not ever again. My Eddie was gone.....forever...

I cried harder and harder, hugging the leather jacket that was once Eddie's even tighter. Then I heard a familiar but light giggle come form outside the door. I had stopped crying and ran outside. My hopes got the best of me...

It had just been the wind blowing through the streets as white petals of spring flowers dancing on stone street, the sun shining its face through the clouds...
