The Fort
The fort was okay and I enjoyed the room we all shared. We lived in a big tent and had for one day. The General was pleased with all of us and said he had one more assignment for us but we didn't know what that assignment was so we just tried to be cheerful about things. It was now dark and we were all sleeping. I got up and smiled looking at Tommy and Becky suddenly I saw a figure outside our tent. "Gwen" a voice said and I walked outside. "Jackson" I said then a hand was put over my mouth as I was about to scream. "Yeah its me" he said releasing me "I just wanted to see how you guys were doing." "Well considering that for the last two days we have gone from place to place, been in a battle and almost died" I said "Were doing pretty okay." He smiled "Why didn't you stay with me during the battle" he asked me "I don't have a problem with it I was just wondering."
"I had a brother and sister to look after" I told him "Plus I didn't see you when the battle begun." "Gwen" Becky said "who you talking to."
"Hi Becky" Jackson said "How are you." Becky smiled all knowingly "I'm all right" she said "And now I'm going to give you guys alone time." She walked back into the tent smiling. "What did she mean by that" Jackson asked me. "Umm well you know siblings" I told him. "Okay but why would you need to be alone with me" he said then started smiling "Is it because you like me." I nodded "Yeah" I looked down "It is." "Well Gwen " Jackson said "I like you too." He kissed my cheek then left and I went back to bed. "No" Tommy mumbled in his sleep "Not the chocolates." Becky and I were cracking up.
"So would you rather fall in love with Jackson or find someone else" Becky asked me. "Hmm fall for Jackson" I said smiling. "Dang" Becky said "Now I have to find my true love." I started laughing. "Would you rather stop talking or be beat up by me" Tommy said "Cause I really hate it when people wake me up. "Stop talking" Becky and I replied. I smiled and then just when I was about asleep I had and episode. Tommy has Asthma problems and takes medicine, Becky has anger management problems and had to go through therapy but I am cursed with this. During an episode I shake uncontrollably no its not a seizure but at the same time its not good either. My Mom was worried it was some work of the devil so she had all these church practices done on me but no such luck. I get them when I'm under stress and today's I'm guessing was the aftermath stress from the battle. Fortunately I don't get an episode during a battle cause that would be bad. So here I was having an episode when it finally stops. I sigh and pull the covers over me and fall asleep.
"Good morning" Becky screams and I could've sworn I saw Tommy touch the ceiling. "Morning Bitch" I say smiling. "What did you call me" she said shaking a fist "Well you're the BAMF." She walked away grumbling. "Well that's one-way to stop her" Tommy said "Good job Gwen." "I try Tommy," I said smiling "I try." "Mail for Gwen Jones" a man said I went out and got the letter. "Whats it say "Becky said bounding up and down. "Hey" Tommy said "I thought you were pissed." Becky frowns then smiles hugely. "It says that Grandma is glad we made it through the war" I told them "And it also says that she knows we have another assignment and is pissed about that, but she can't wait for us to come home." "Aww Grandma" Tommy and Becky said. "Guys I have your mission" the commander said "You are to go with Captain Miller to save private Ryan because all of his brothers are dead and his Mom wants him back. Oh and your leaving tomorrow." "Aww FUCK" we all say together.
