the journey had just begun.

we were invading europe. one of the biggest, and dealiest wars yet to come.

of course, we were all joking around. still wondering if europe was the main destination.

"guys, I'm glad I'm going to europe. hitler gets this across the windpipe. roosevelt changes thanksgiving to joe toye Day.....and pays me $ 10,000 a year for the rest of my life." toye said playing with his knife.

you giggled which made him look up at you smirking.

"what if they send us to North Africa?" smokey asked.

"my brother's there. he says it's hot" guarnere said puffing his cigarette.

"really? it's hot in africa?" malark joked

"shut up. point is, it don't matter where we go. once we get into combat, you trust only yourself and the man next to you" guarnere mentioned.

"hey, as long as he's a paratrooper" toye jumped in once again.

"yeah?"

"what if that paratrooper turns out to be sobel?" luz said climbing to his bunk above christenson.

"if I'm next to sobel, i'm moving down the line. hook up with another officer, like heyliger or winters." christenson spoke up.

you nodded in agreement, which some other did as well.

"i like winters. but when bullets fly, i don't want a quaker fighting for me. "guarnere said jumping down from his bunk throwing down his finished cigarette.

"how do you know he's a quaker?" someone spoke up.

"he ain't catholic"

"neither's sobel"

"that pricks a son of abraham" guarnere said.

"what?" lieb spoke up offended

"he's a jew" guarnere answered.

"oh fuck," lieb threw his smoke down on the ground and jumped off the bed in anger making his way towards guarnere, "i'm a jew."

"congratulations. now get your nose ouf my face." and with that lieb launched toward guarnere with a punch making everyone around them jump to their feet and try to stop the fight.

you sat on your bunk watching from above, shaking your head at the two children fighting. you were tired, and sleep deprived. ever since you guys got on the plane, you haven't slept well.

the anger built inside of you to the point where you jumped down from bed, and help break up the fight.

"STOP IT!!" you yelled making everyone stop immediately, looking a you in surprise.

"i am not feeling well and the last thing i want to fucking hear is you guys arguing," you said looking between the two guys, " i have a headache, i'm tired, and i'm not feeling well. so if you two want to fight and scream at each other like children, i suggest you take it on the dock" you yelled at them with tears swelling your eyes.

"y/n, i'm-" lieb started, but you cut him off.

"do whatever the fuck you want. i'm going up there to get some air and away from you assholes" and with that you left to head to the dock, leaving all the men down below speechless and full of regret.

~~~

you had stood on the dock for about 2 hours now. watching each wave go by. minute by minute it started to get colder and colder. you had forgotten your coat, but didn't feel like going back down there yet.

soon after, you heard footsteps behind you and felt something warm go over your shoulders.

you looked up and saw liebgott.

you looked back down at the water and held the jacket tightly to you.

"hey, i am sorry about earlier. i didn't mean to yell at you guys. i'm just tired and sick and i shouldn't have taken it out on you" you said softly with tears swelling up in your eyes again.

lieb looked at you confused, "why are you sorry? we were the ones who were being assholes. we didn't think before we acted. we put a lot of anger and stress on everyone down there. we should be the one to say sorry."

you gave him a small smile before pulling him into a hug.

"love you lieb"

"love you too princess"

~~~

after talking for awhile, you both headed back down below where some men were sleeping ans some were still awake talking.

you made your way over to you bunk which was right next to skinny's.

you laid down and faced him with a small smile on your face.

the men looked at you as you tried to get comfy. with their voices getting lower to let you sleep, you soon started to drift off.

you look so peaceful, which made the guys happy. skinny reached his hands over to yours and rubbed the back of your hand with his thumb softly. on the other side of you, toye looked over with a small smile before laying back down to sleep.

you and the men were on the troop ship for 12 days before coming on land of england where the real training of war began.
