Ok everyone; so, this is a 2-shot that I came up with recently. It's a Mo/Charlie story because I absolutely love the two of them together and I wish that they got together in the movie! Grr! Sorry to those of you reading this who are reading my other stories. I've been super busy and it takes me a while because some of the stories I have to write as I go, and some of them I have to tweak a little bit and it may take me awhile. Anyways, on with the story!
Disclaimer: I do not own LM or the characters. Only the plot line and my OC's. (If I did own LM, Marlie would already be happening).
STORY TIME!
*Airport, no one's POV*
5 years ago, she stood there in the middle of the airport waiting, as the love of her life, her boyfriend of many years, was going to depart. He had been one of the many new recruits for the war. He had chosen to be in the Army and was now wearing that dark green camouflaged uniform with his matching camouflaged duffel bag thrown over his shoulder. His brown locks had been cut down to an Army cut due to the fact that all men in the service had to get a military style haircut. He made his way down the line of people in the airport bidding them all a farewell. He made it the best that he could, for he didn't know how long he was going to be away from all of them.
First, he said goodbye and hugged his mother, who was weeping, and his father, who looked as if he did have tears in his eyes, and then his older brother, who he was super close with. Next, his close friends that he had since his freshman year of high school. They had all grown so much together through high school, and he couldn't imagine his life without them. And finally, his beautiful girlfriend; who as of the day before, was now his fiancée.
When he got to her, he could see the tears threatening to fall from her beautiful chocolate brown eyes and make their way down her perfectly tanned skin. He hated seeing her that way, but he had to go. He felt that this was something he needed to do. To go and serve his country. He set his duffel bag down on the ground next to him and placed both of his hands on either side of her face to make her look at him. A single, almost crystal-like, tear escaped her eye and began traveling down her soft, smooth, light tan skin. At seeing this, he moved one of his thumbs and wiped away that lonely tear.
"Don't cry," he said, "and don't be sad." She looked up at him with those sad, glossy eyes. She opened her mouth to speak but closed it again, not wanting to start crying. He waited for a moment and noticed that some of her long, dark brown hair had fallen down in front of her face. He slowly and carefully moved his hand to that piece of hair, gently tucking it behind her ear, as he had done many times before. Then he spoke once more, "Also, don't count the days that I've been gone, count the days that I'll be loving you from afar and the days until I'm home. Before you know it, I'll be right back here again, giving you a great big bear hug, because I'll be home, for good." She looked at him once more, and this time, she couldn't hold them back any longer.
She let all the tears she was holding back fall from her eyes and down her face as she jumped on him, wrapping her arms around his neck enveloping him in a hug. "I'm gonna miss you so much Charlie!" She said through her tears while she continued to hug him.
"I'm gonna miss you too Mohini," he replied as he nestled into her hair, taking in that wonderful smell that he wouldn't have for a while, "I'll be thinking of you every day until I return home."
She pulled back and looked him straight in the eyes, "Promise?"
He smiled at her, "Always." She smiled at him and then crashed her lips to his for the last time before they would be able to see each other again. They both savored that moment in each other's arms, enjoying the feeling and warmth.
Finally, they were interrupted from their moment by the loud speaker above. "Now boarding, Flight 139 to…" that was all that they needed to hear to know that it was time to part their ways. He did his final goodbyes and hugged his fiancée one last time, then walked to the gate to board his plane.
He had just given his ticket to the woman at the door and was almost through when he turned around and met the eyes of his beautiful fiancée. "You'll wait for me," he called to her, "Promise?"
She looked at him and smiled, "Always."
With that final word, he turned and walked through the door to his plane, the door shutting behind him. Leaving that world and everyone he loved behind.
