Back to present day

YOUR POV

I snapped back to reality by the waiter saying " Here's your (favorite food), sir." I thanked him and he walked away. I still didn't eat my food yet because I was busying looking at old photos in my phone. I scrolled down until I saw a picture of me and Lena on the day she was put into the slipstream.

Flash back

"Are you sure you are doing this, Lena?" I asked her in a worried tone.

"I'm going to be alright, love. I'm the most skilled pilot here!" She answered with a warm smile.

"*sigh* Yeah."

"Don't worry love. Anyway, let's take a selfie before I go."

I nodded and grabbed my phone and took a selfie. Then I put the phone back into my pocket. Then I hold Lena's hand and take a deep breath before saying, "There's one thing I want to tell you before you go, Lena."

"What is it, luv?" She replied.

"Lena... I-I lo-"

I was interrupted by my pilot friend, James saying, "The slipstream is ready, Lena."

"You can tell me when I get back, love. Gotta go now! See ya' later Y/N!" She said to me with a warm smile before turning away and walk to the slipstream.

I turned to James and said, "What the fuck bro! I'm about to confess my love to her!"

He chucked and said, "Sorry about that mate. How about I pay you a drink in return."

I thanked him before walking away from runway to the HQ's bar since it already passed my working hours and tomorrow is my day-off.

Time skip: a day later

I was sitting at the bar since I had no plans for today. "Why didn't Lena come back yet?" I said to James. "She'll come back." He replied. Then Winston walked to me with a sad face.

"Never see you in a bar before, big guy." I joked him.

"I'm not here to drink. I have bad news for you, Y/N" He replied in a serious and sad tone.

I nodded. He took a deep breath before saying, "We've lost contact with Lena for a day now. There's no sign of her being alive. I'm sorry Y/N but... Lena is dead..."

Tears flowed from my eyes as he comforted me before leaving the bar. I can't believe it... Lena Oxton, the love of my life is...dead. Then I heard Winston on the TV, announcing that Lena is dead. I then start weeping very loud that everyone in that bar can hear me crying "Take it easy man. Maybe she's still alive. " James tried to comfort me by rubbing my back as I guzzle the beer.

"WHAT! HOW DO YOU KNOW SHE'S ALIVE! THERE'S NO SIGNAL OF THE PLANE! THAT'S A CONFIRM THAT SHE'S DEAD!" I shouted at him. Then I quickly calm my voice. "Sorry for that...I shouldn't shout at you.." I apologized him. Then I ordered 5 bottles of beer. Then I gave the bartender the money and head back to my room with my beer. That whole night I didn't sleep. I grabbed a photo Album. I flipped the page and see a picture of me and Lena on our graduating day. She was holding my hand while we took the picture. I smiled at the picture while tears rolled from my eyes .The next morning I rushed to uncle Morrison's room.

"Good morning, Y/N. Is there anything I can help you? Oh and, I'm sorry for your loss." Uncle Morrison said. He clearly know that I cried a lot last night, due to my eyes being very red.

"I want to take a break for a while. I will come back to work when I'm ready to move on." I said

"*sigh* I'm giving you 4 months at most."

Then tears stared coming from me. He quickly tried to comfort me by saying, "Lena was a great woman. I know you love her, Y/N." "Also, we got a message from Lena before we lost contact with her." He added then he opened an mp3 file of Lena's last message.

She said, " This is Lena Oxton. please give this message to Y/N. This will be my last couple minutes of my life, so I want you to listen to this, Y/N. Thank you for everything you did to me, Y/N...*sniffing* You were my best friend...since high school. Remember that night that I asked you to sleep with me? I can't sleep because of you, Y/N. Y/N... I lo-"*signal failed*

by the time the message ended, tears were all over my face. I thanked him and walk back to my room. I quickly packed my stuff and asked the dropship's captain to take me to (your hometown). He nodded and send me there. When the drop ship arrived at (your hometown), I thanked him and then the ship flew away. I rang the doorbell of my dad's house. He opened he door, and then hugged me and asked, "Why didn't you tell me first that you were coming home, son? Are you alright? You looked like you just cried over something."

I replied, "Dad... you remember Lena, my best friend right?"

He nodded. "She's dead..." I added then I hugged him tightly while tears are falling from me. Then he led me inside the house, then handed me a glass of wine. I thanked him and said, "I'm going to head to my room and unpack my stuff."
Time skip: 3 months later
YOUR DAD'S POV
It's been three months now since he moved here. My son, Y/N hasn't really smiled yet since he came here. He just can't move on without Lena. He tried dating other girls, but he just can't forget about Lena. Almost every night I can hear him crying a bit
"Y/N, dinner is ready!" I called him.
"Coming!" He answered as he walked out of his door.
YOUR POV
"I could've make the dinner for you dad." I said.
"It's okay. You already made food for me everyday since you moved here." He replied.
Then we ate our dinner
"And when are you going to date another girl?" He asked.
" I told you like million times already dad. I'm tired of love. I don't want to love an another girl." I replied.
Then my phone went buzzing. Winston called me. I quickly answered the call.
"Hi Winston."
"Hi Y/N! I have a surprise for you! A dropship will be picking up you within 2 hours from now. Bye!"

"Wait, what the surpr-" He ended the call before I can finish my sentence.

"What did Winston say, Y/N?" Dad asked.

"He said he have a surprise for me. He also said a drop ship will be picking me up within 2 hours from now."

He nodded then we continue eating our dinner. Then, after the dinner, I went back to my room, packing my stuffs. An hour later, I already finished packing my stuffs. The drop ship also arrived at the house. It was faster than I expected.

"Bye dad, I'll miss you. And thank you for letting me stay here." I told him as I hugged him.

"I'll miss you too, Y/N" He replied.

I waved at him with a smile then walk to dropship.

Time skip: When you arrived at the base

As I walked out of the drop ship, I said to myself, "I wonder what's the surprise Winston told me."

Then a voice of a cute brit saying,"I am the surprise!" Wait! It can't be! That voice...belongs to Lena! She's alive! LENA OXTON IS ALIVE! I then sprint as fast as I can to hug her.

"Don't leave me again, Lena!" I said as tears of happiness ran down from my eyes. Her tears started falling too as she replied, "I'll never leave you again!"

Back to the present day

I then snapped back into reality. Then I noticed that the food started cooling down to the point where it's not hot anymore. I chuckle quietly before eating (your favorite food). After I ate the food, I paid the cashier and drive back to the hospital. When I got to the room, Lena was breast feeding the baby. "Hiya! Where have you been, love?" She greeted me. "I just got out to eat some (ur fav food)." She nodded then said, "Look at him, he's so cute."

"Indeed he is." I said, giving out a smile. Then the rest of the was either Lena breast feeding S/N, which I liked the most cause I get to look at her boobs, or it was people visiting Lena. Then, the Doctor came checking Lena and S/N and told us that we can leave now. After I paid for everything, we left the hospital and head back to home. Then Lena took a shower while I played with S/N. After I took a shower, we decided that we should head to sleep. And we had a peaceful sleep without S/N interrupting our sleep.
