going home. the best part of our missions.

being in the military had a great strain on our lives, but it was an honour to be serving for our country.

this trip had been two months long of camping out overseas in a makeshift bunker, and we were finally on a returning flight home.

the boys and i were on the plane, chatting, drinking and celebrating the success on our past mission.

'sergeant!' one of the boys, finn, called out from across the plane to our military leader, sergeant blake. 'want a drink?'

'no thanks.' the sergeant had said firmly, nodding his head and then resumed looking out the window and clouded with thoughts, as he did for the majority of the flight.

the sergeant was a man of mystery. he was with no doubt a heroic figure that all of our team looked up to. he was selfless and brave, always leading his team to the best of his abilities. however, this was the first flight he had taken back home with the team. normally, he would spend a few extra days in their bunker, ensuring everything was good. but this time, he came with us. many of the team made predictions about him, weather he had a wife, kids or if he was a bachelor. no one knew.

he stayed to himself most of the time, never talking personally about himself but always listening if you ever talked to him. sometimes i felt myself feeling sorrow for him, a man of such honour didn't deserve to be lonely.

shaking myself out of my thoughts, i picked up a shot of tequila and proposed a toast to the boys.

'for the sergeant!' i exclaimed, bringing my glass up to 'cheers' with everyone else. our glasses clinked together and then we downed the shot, the taste of alcohol burning down our throats.

i chuckled softly to myself as i watched the boys propose a toast in my honour. i was really lucky that i had a great team. we all worked together well, trusted each other with our lives. however there was a much more pressing matter that had occupied my mind: y/n.

long before i had been promoted to become a military sergeant i had fell in love with y/n. she had been with me through everything; to train with me, watch as i progressed through the ranks and eventually became sergeant. she meant everything to me.

as time went on i had to leave on overseas missions more often, leaving her at home by herself. at first they were missions in the country, leaving for only a week or two. but as time progressed i had to leave for months on end at times. i hated being away from her for so long but duty calls.

worry had struck me two missions ago when one of my team, finn, had told our team about his girlfriend leaving him due to his long absences. it's then that it occurred to me that y/n could decide to leave me because i wasn't around a lot.

ever since then i always stressed during the rides home, worried she wouldn't be at the gate for me when i arrived back home. although she had proved my worries wrong each time, i still couldn't help the bundle of nerves that always managed to build up.

time seemed to stretch out for what felt like forever as my thoughts consumed me until i felt the plane finally start to dip and begin landing back home.

walking off the plane, past customs and into the airport, the boys and i were greeted by each of our families with various presents.

as i was bombarded with gifts and hugs i couldn't help but notice the sergeant standing off to the side, searching intensely through the crowd. i watched as he scanned each person in the airport multiple times until he finally gave up, a look of hurt filled his entire expression.

'sergeant blake!' i exclaimed as i walked over to the hurt man, his body language immediately changing to assume the role of someone who hadn't had their heart shattered 'the boys and i were planning to head to the bar after this, wanna come?'

'no thanks, lincoln' he said genuinely with a half smile 'i'll just head home.'

it finally happened. she wasn't there.

although my thoughts had anticipated this moment, i never knew i would feel this much pain.

i was grateful for lincoln's sympathy but all i wanted to do was find y/n, maybe she forgot i was coming home today, maybe she's running late, she wouldn't leave you.

a million excuses swarmed my mind to try and compensate the immense loss i felt, but deep down i knew i was lying to myself.

i felt so broken- i started hearing her voice calling for me. my mind playing cruel games on me, it was as if i could hear her gentle voice calling for me from behind me.

with all my will i tried not to turn around and see if she was there as i knew it would break me even more to see she wasn't, but i just had to try.

turning around with a small glimmer of hope my eyes followed the path of her voice until i finally locked eyes with her; her small body running through the crowd, a wide smile on her lips, calling my name.

i had to rub my eyes to ensure that i wasn't hallucinating until i felt her body collide with mine, pulling me in for a hug i knew it was real.

she didn't leave me.

'you're- you're here...' my voice trailed off as i buried my head into the crook of her neck, tightening my hold on her.

'i missed you so much bell' she whispered to me as she placed a passionate kiss to my lips. 'so much'

'i was so worried you wouldn't show up' i told her truthfully as a few tears escaped my eyes, truly still shaken up from the thoughts of her not being here.

'i would never leave you blake,' she told me, wiping the tears from my eyes.  'ever.'

'well would you look at that!' finn exclaimed, reminding me that we were not alone and indeed in a very large crowd 'blake's got a heart after all.'

a/n:
