[QUOTE="Phoenix8008, post: 6513699, member: 211"] Airman Babington comes to attention and pops off a quick salute while answering the Colonel with a [COLOR="#0000FF"]"Sir, no questions sir."[/COLOR] Once they are dismissed, he heads back to his room to say goodbye to his wife and kids... just in case. ****************************** Inside the door to their living space, he finds her pacing the floor. [COLOR="#0000FF"]"Hey you."[/COLOR] he says lamely, unsure of what else to say to her. [COLOR="#FFA07A"]"Hey."[/COLOR] she reponds as she stops pacing and turns to face him. [COLOR="#0000FF"]"They're sending me and some others with a squad of marines to check out the other Ark that we've found floating nearby. Should be just a quick recon and I'll be back before you know it." [/COLOR] [COLOR="#FFA07A"]"Unless you're not."[/COLOR] she says as tears well up in her eyes and she flings herself into his arms to hug him tightly like she was never going to let go. He hugs her back for a long time before pulling away enough to look at her- tear soaked eye to tear soaked eye. [COLOR="#0000FF"]"I have to go. It's my duty and I owe my service to those we could help, but I WILL be back. I promise. You and me- always & forever, remember?"[/COLOR] She nods and smiles up at him before pushing him towards the boys room to kiss them goodbye since they were asleep. She watched him, leaning against the doorframe, and then took his hand in hers while he gathered what he needed to report for duty. Then they hugged and kissed again at the front door one more time before he opened it and walked out, looking back at her in the doorway. [COLOR="#0000FF"]"I love you. See ya later, hon."[/COLOR], he said to her but she was too choked up to reply with more than a wavering [COLOR="#FFA07A"]"I love you too."[/COLOR], before shutting the door after he rounded the corner out of sight, leaving her to slide down the wall to the floor where she sobbed quietly. ****************************** Wiping tears from his eyes, Airman Babington made his way to the debarkation room to gear up with weapons and to meet the marines that were going with them. It looked like he was the first one there. Juno would be along shortly though, he was sure. Sitting on the bench in the locker room, he hoped that everything went well on the other Ark.
