The bar at tappers was full of beers and empty glasses.
Sargent Calhoun was sitting in her stool dazed in thought as she sipped her beer with out even knowing she had drank half of it in less then a minute.
A big arm tapped her on the shoulder.
"You alright there sarge?"
Turning to see who had knocked her out of thought. She tried to glare at the man that had just pissed her off but quickly lost the feeling of agression when she saw that it was Ralph.
"No I'm not alright Wreck-It."
"What is on your mind there?" He sits down next to her knocking of the bar to get the crazy barman who was running around. "Hey Tapper two beers over here. Since the sargent has drank her's dry in one gulp."
Looking at the glass in bewilderment. She just order this and she all ready sucked it as dry as the sahara desert. MAybe she might have a drinking problem but quickly lost that thought when the next beer came in a swift motion down the bar.
"Thanks Tapper!"
"No problem there Ralph!" Said the old timer as he filled three drinks in prompt motion.
"So Calhoun what's wrong?" Looking at her as he sipped his beer. You could tell just by looking at her she hasn't been sleeping well. But he doesn't know why. She had been dating Felix for 4 months now. And she had been a lot more pleasent then she was when they first met. Since she did slam a helmet in his face.
"Nothing I'm fine Ralph." She stared at her glass, swirling it around in the clear foam covered glass. She silently cursed herself. She never called him Ralph unless she wasn't in a good mood. It gave her away and she knew it.
"Come on Tamora. You can tell me, I know I am your bestfriend. I know I am, we tell eachother everything. Sure Felix is your best best friend but thats because you guys are together. Please tell me so I can help you."
"It's not a big deal Ralph. Okay?" Now finally looking at him in the eye. Not caring that he had just called her her first name, since he only used it when he new she was sad. She couldn't help but let out a chuckle at his face which was a "are you kidding me" face. "Ugh!" She swung her legs over to the side so her body was in a way that she could she him even if she didn't want too. "I don't know what to do about the situation I am put in."
"And that is...?"
"Felix asked me too marry him."
"Wow I didn't think he had it in him. Well here's a good question. How do you feel about him? Do you love him? Do you not love him?"
"Thats the thing I love him more then anything but I am not sure if I am willing to get married since Brad. I don't want it to happen to Felix. I know Brad is programmed but the feelings of his loss are so excrusiatingly painful. And for thoses feelings to be just programmed and cut so deeply in me. Just the thought that this love is real and I could actually loose this man that means the world to me just scares me. I don't want to loose him ever."
"Okay well Sarge, here's all I have to say."
"Okay"
"If you love him. Don't let him go. You know that you love him, so don't hold back. Felix loves you more then anything Tamora. How do you feel now."
"I think I am ready to give him my anwser."
"And what is that going to be?"
"I guess you'll find out Solider. I guess you'll find out."
