Tord P.o.v/
"Have a good day at work my dear." I felt a pair of lips meet my check. I sighed, brushing the lip stain off my check.
I nodded in response, walking out the door and not bothering to close it. The days always seem grey to me, like I can never see blue again.
The Red Army Base has moved to a more "Townish" like place. Ever sense I married Amber, my wife obviously, she wanted a place more social. Of course we moved near a town called Lehi, and my soldiers live in the town, as well as me.
The town was populated and about a medium size. It was alright, enough for me to buy. People who lived here are kind, sometimes mean when have to. They treat us like their protectors, which we are.
Amber sees the kids walking around and everytime she sees a kid she'll start talking.
She's always on my back with having future children of our own. I never told her about me being a Homosexual.. I really have no Intrest in her in the slightest.
Why did I marry her? I needed emotional support, and she was the only person there making me feel better about my lost "friend". She was going to leave one day, causing me to have to propose to her to stay. I sometimes think if I made the right decision in marrying her.
"Red Leader! Welcome." Paul saluted, making me nod in appreciation to him. He followed me inside the base. I was greeted by Celia, who is training to be second in charge.
"Red Leader, wonderful morning we have don't we?" She saluted, causing me to roll my eye(s).
"The mornings are nothing but a grey to me Celia.. It is not important to admire." I responded.
"Yes yes of course.." She looked away from me, probably regretting what she said. Celia, is a good soldier. But she can get off once in awhile. She always tries to get on my good side because she was going to be the next second in command, which I really don't want anyone in that position.
I walked in my office, looking plain as ushal. Patryk was there, saluting as I sat down on my chair.
"Red Leader, A beautiful morning today." Patryk smiled.
"Yes I guess it is." I responded, gaining a look from Celia." How are the troops doing?"
"Our new troop member seems to master the skill in sniper ability sir."
"And that is?"
"Alex."
I nodded, pulling out a file of Alex. She was a strong rookie, her black hair meets her waist, she is also one of the soldiers who accepted the robot arm installment for better aim.
I looked at Celia. Her short silver hair was a bit messy, her green eyes meeting mine. She saluted," Is there anything you need?"
"Bring Alex to my office. I shall see if she wants to join the sniper group." She nodded, walking out of the office as soon as I was finished.
"She's trying to hard.." I said, playing with a pen on my desk. Paul and Patryk exchanged looks.
"Well Red Leader.. you need a second in charge. You can't leave the position empty for long.."
"I know Paul.. I know." I placed my head down, looking at the blue but appears to be grey pen." I just.. it feels like I'll be replacing.." I trailed off and sighed. They both nodded their respects, as they knew what I was talking about.
"Sir!" I herd Celia said. She was standing next to Alex, the soon to be lead of the sniper group.
"You wanted to see me Red Leader?" Alex's voice was soft but fearless.
I nodded and signaled her to sit down." I would like to talk about your skills.."
After discussing her skills and weakness, I asked her to become the leader of the sniper group. She accept, and saluted," I won't let you down Red Leader."
I nodded as she left. Celia nodded to me as she left as well. I sighed once again, examining the, supposed to be blue, pen.
Time skip/
"Honey, it's getting late why don't you come inside?" I herd Amber call from inside my house.
"No thanks.. I think I'll go for a walk." I replied, looking at the vase that held the special rose that was on Tom's grave. I picked it up and looked back inside.
"Well do what you want love.." She said as she saw me walk out of the house. The moon was shining, and the streets where lit with the beautiful color of the it. I held the rose on my hand carfully, I took a deep breath.
"Hey Lucy, I remember your name.."
I started to sing. I looked at the moon a bit before taking in a breath once again.
"I left a dozen roses on your grave today..
I'm in the grass on my knees, wipe the leaves away,
I just came to talk for a while..
I got some things I need to say..."
"Now that it's over...
I just wanna hold her...
I'd give up all the world to see,
That little piece of heaven looking back at me..
Now that it's over, I just wanna hold her...
I've gotta live with the choices I made
And I can't live with myself today"
I lifted the rose, admiring how it was made.
"Hey Lucy, I remembered your birthday...
They said it'd bring some closure, to say your name..
I know I'd do it all different if I had the chance.. But all I got are these roses to give,
And they can't help me make amends."
"Now that it's over...
I just wanna hold her...
I'd give up all the world to see,
That little piece of heaven looking back at me..
Now that it's over,
I just wanna hold her...
I've gotta live with the choices I made
And I can't live with myself today."
"Here we are, now you're in my arms."
I pulled the rose close to me tightly.
"I never wanted anything so bad..
Here we are,
For a brand new start..
Living the life that we could've had."
"Me and Lucy walking hand in hand,
Me and Lucy never wanna end...
Just another moment in your eyes,
I'll see you in another life
In heaven! Where we never say goodbye.."
I felt a tear steam down my face as memories of Tom came to mind.
"Now that it's over,
I just wanna hold her..
I'd give up all the world to see,
That little piece of heaven looking back at me!
Now that it's over,
I just wanna hold her...
I've gotta live with the choices I made
And I can't live with myself today.."
"Here we are, now you're in my arms.
Here we are for a brand new start.
Got to live with the choices I've made,
And I can't live with myself today.."
"Me and Lucy walking hand in hand, Today.
Me and Lucy never wanna end
Got to live with the choices I've made
And I can't live with myself.... Today."
"Hey Lucy... I-I remember your name"
I took a deep breath and held back tears." God dammit Thomas.." I smiled, letting myself cry once again. I looked around the quiet place where I live and sighed. It's time for me to back home.
I turned around and started heading back home, whipping some tears away and trying to look normal. Little did I know that Celia was listening to me the whole time.
