Chapter 1: Welcome Aboard
AUTHOR'S NOTE:Phandomhunter give me this story to repost it so I hope you will enjoy in this story from chapter 10 because it will be part where I am starting with my writing works.
Hey everyone. So this is my new story. I have two others- My Secret Past and Around The Corner. This is AU- I have made Mike a dad, know Bomber already. Those are few of the things so far. Disclaimer: I don't own the right to any of these characters, I only own some of the storyline I will try to stick to episodes (only my favourites though). There will be new characters. Bomber will be the youngest. So let's start.
Bomber's POV
"When are you leaving then"
"Straight after graduation" I responded. I cringed when my mother started yelling.
"What, were you just going to up and leave. Not even tell me you were leaving that soon. Were you just going to leave a note or just walk out, for me to never hear from you again. Will I see you again?" she eventually got softer as she started realising what I was doing.
"Mum you don't get it, I've been stuck either here or with dad for my whole life and as much as I love you both I need to leave. I'm going crazy, plus I've done all the interviews so all I need to do is go to training. I thought what better way to start my life then on graduation day. I realise I hurt you and I'm sorry but I have to do this."
"If you leave for the Navy, then you will never come back here again" mum suddenly said.
"Then fine, count me out of your life" I scream back at her. And with that I turned walked into my room, packed what little stuff I had there, then ran out of the house towards the school for graduation. Yes that's right, today is the day my new life will begin. The one where I can only count on myself.
4 MONTHS LATER
I saluted as I walked up the gangway. Just as I was about to step onto my new ship I heard someone calling my name.
"Yes sir" I said as I turned around. You see I already know the captain. He is my best friends dad, who is like a dad to me.
"I just wanted to welcome you. Come I will show you to your cabin." Mike replied, grabbing my bag and walking past me.
"You know I can carry my bag by myself right, I'm not a child. I want you to treat me like any other sailor" I said sternly.
"I know, but its your first day, just please let me do this" he responded with a grin, obviously knowing I would give in.
"Fine, but just today" I sigh out slinging my arm around his waist. He wrapped his arm around my shoulder and led me through the hallways til we reached my cabin.
"Thanks Mike" I say as I walk into the cabin. It was larger than I expected but still really small. I noticed there was no belongings in there.
"Is there no other girl in here" I asked
"Not right now, for now you have the cabin to yourself for about a month. Then we will pick up an AB from Sydney and you will share with her." he responded.
"I have to go back up to the bridge, but feel free to explore. Your buddy will be Buffer, so if you need anything and I mean ANYTHING Bec just find him and ask. I will show you to him soon." he said and then started walking away.
"Hey Mike" I yell as I stick my head out into the hallway.
"Yes"
"Thank you" giving him a small smile I turn back into my cabin, shut the door and started unpacking.
