(Jame's POV)

Pay song while reading 

I open my eyes to see some wood above me. I then remember, I'm not at home. I sigh sadly, missing being at home. I get up out of bed, stretching, "Good morning mate", I hear someone say. I look at at the bed above me to see my friend Nate, peering at me, over the bed, "Hey", I say tiredly. Nate sighs, getting out of bed, "So, ready for the ultimate training today?", he asks me. I sigh, taking my pajama shirt off, "No, I'm terrible at training and, I think they'll send me home if I fail", I say as I put my camo shirt on. Nate looks at me weirdly, "Don't you want to go home?", he asks me. I shake my head, hauling my backpack over my back, "Yeah but, I'm not gonna give up, even though I want to go home", I say softly. Nate nods, "Okay then, hey, your baby girl is cute, is her name Sophia?", he asks. I nod, "Yeah Sophia Grace Brennan", I say proudly. Nate smiles, "Awe, such a cute name", he says. I then hear the blow of the whistle, "Get up, time for training", I hear my commander say. I sigh, putting my boots on, "Let's head out, we don't Commander Braun to get mad at us", I say as I walk out of our cabin. Nate follows behind me, heading out to the field, "Listen up", I hear my commander say. I stand still, listening to every word she says, "You will be climbing ropes, carrying people, etc but, first, your gonna, your gonna do the rope climbing", she says seriously. I nod, glancing over at Nate, "First up, James Chandler, go on and try it, if you fail, there will be a consequence for that", she says sternly. I take a deep breath in and out, ready to be challenged.

(Olivia's POV)

"So,  the guy almost chocked you? This is why I should've went with Olivia", says Scarlett in a winy tone. Detective Prescott nods, scratching his chin, "So, you said he knows you?", he asks me. I nod, looking at all the bruises and cuts the guy gave me, "Yeah, he has been stalking me", I say. Detective Prescott nods, going through some files, "Well, we know he knows you and about your family so, you can find more information on him", says Detective Prescott. I sigh, "Okay but first, I need to clean myself up", I say as I go to the bathroom. I walk into the bathroom, going to the sink, splashing some water on my face. I wash the dry blood from my nose, washing my cuts throughly, "Your such a badass", I hear Scarlett say. I turn around to see Scarlett smiling at me, "Uh, thank you", I say hesitate as I splash my face again, drying off with a towel.  Scarlett sighs, "So, do you know how the suspect know you, like about your family and everything?", she asks. I sigh, walking out of the bathroom, "Yes, he has been stalking me", I say annoyed as I walk to my office, sitting in my chair. Scarlett sits in her office, peering over at me, "Can I please call you a nickname?", she begs me. I sigh, rolling my eyes, "No, you can call me Agent Chandler or Olivia, that's it", I say annoyed. Scarlett looks at me sadly, "Why can't I call you a nickname?", she asks me. I sigh, closing my eyes, "Because my husband can only call me that", I say softly. looking down. Scarlett smiles sadly, "You miss him, don't you?", she asks me quietly. I nod, "Yeah", I say, tears coming to my eyes. Scarlett comes into my office, rubbing my back, "It's okay, he'll be back, he loves you", he says soothingly. I nod, getting up out of my chair, "I'm gonna head out, thanks for the positivity", I say softly, getting my bag and heading out. I walk out of the agency, walking to my car, "Hey!", I hear Scarlett yell out. I turn around to see her running towards me, "I wanted to show you something", she says out of breath. I look down to see her handing me a photo. I loo at the photo to see Scarlett smiling in the picture, hugging a guy, smiling, "This is my husband", she say softly. I smile sadly, "He looks like a great guy", I say. Scarlett nods, sighing, "Before we got married, I has a miscarriage, we were devastated but, we got through it", she says sadly. I look down at the picture, then looking up at Scarlett sadly, "I'm so sorry", I say sadly. Scarlett nods sadly, "The worst part is right after I got over it, my husband died", she says sadly. When I hear that, my heart pounds in my chest, "How did he pass away?", I ask her softly. Scarlett sighs, looking down at the picture, "He got killed by a car hitting him, they hit him in the right spot and he died right there, on the street, the hospital called me and told me he didn't make it", she say sadly. I hand her back the picture, a tear coming down my cheek, "I'm so sorry", I say softly. Scarlett nods, "I'm kinda over it now but, when you said your husband joined the army, I felt very sorry for you but, I feel your pain", she says. I nod, tears now streaming down my cheeks, "Well, would you like to stay at my house tonight? You can meet my kids and we can have a movie night to get your mind off of him and it will help me too, get my mind off of James", I say, a small smile appearing on my face. Scarlett laughs softly, looking down, "Okay, but I don't have any clothes", she say. I smile, opening my car door and starting my car, "I have extra pairs, I'm pretty sure your my size", I say with a small smile. Scarlett smiles, getting in my car, closing the door, "Okay then, sure", she says. I smile, closing my door and driving home, knowing this is gonna be the first ever full day that I will be happy.
