"Do you have to leave?" I say through tears. "I promise I'll be home before you know it." That's a lie. It'll feel longer than what it actually is. And it will all feel like hell. "I'll be lost and...and...alone without you, Matt" I sob even harder. "Don't say that. You'll have Aunt Kathy and Jo. Trust me when I say this: they know exactly what they're doing. They've been through plenty of these before." I nod, not trusting my voice, afraid I'll break down again. His hand comes to my cheek as he wipes a tear that's falling. His arms then indulge me in a huge hug, his familiar cologne invading my nostrils. "STARKS! We're boarding!" I flinch at the fact that its time to let him go. He kisses the top of my head, "I love you." He whispers in my ear. "I love you too." I respond weakly. "I love you most." And with a final, hard kiss, he walks away from me. Kathy holds me and lets me cry on her shoulder as Matt looks back at me, and walks into the plane. ~~~ **This is an original story by @QuackingDuck.

"There's this romantic idea that's built up around war. But the pragmatic view is there are tons of people of my generation who have lost their lives, lost their marriages, or lost their health as a consequence of being sent to wars which could have been avoided." -Pete Buttigieg Actual description: This is a military story shitpost. My other stories are objectively better than this dumpster fire. I have no clue how this topped to #5 on warfare. Disclaimer Photos are not mine Some of the contents and ideas of this story is inspired by many novels that I enjoyed reading. They are what motivated me to write this story and I wanted to make a modern military in another world genre that gives a fun but also practical experience for you readers. I do not own Gate, Japan summons, etc. and their characters. This story is filled with memes and Sabaton references so you shouldn't be taking this story seriously to begin with. This is basically a hotbed for my writing skills. Connect and make plots. And basically write whatever and see where it goes.
