AUTHOR'S NOTE: here is next chapter. Thanks for reading it all. I promise in this will be a lot of Bomber/Mike
BOMBER'S POV
After I spent a night full of passion with Buffer, next morning we returned in our old relation. We agreed it shouldn't happen again for sake of our jobs. Even if I didn't regret for a moment on it. And today, when all that mess with kidnapping happened, only thing what I wanted was to wrap my arms around him but I couldn't. Then I wanted to be in wardroom to "help" Swain during his treatment on Buffer but Swain said I am much more useful in galley. I sighed. Why all loves have to be so complicated?
"Bombie what is for a dinner?" 2Dads asked as he pop his head in my galley.
"Fish with chips." I answered. He smiled and take a cup of coffee.
"Sound delicious." he said and wink. I rolled my eyes frustrated. Why every guy was trying to flirt with me? Especially Spider and 2Dads. They were kids in comparing with Buffer. No, no, no Rebecca Brown, shock these thoughts. Now. When I looked up again I didn't see 2Dads, he probably went on bridge while I was thinking about Buffer. And there was Zac, he was trying to be like when we start this relationship. And he said he is having a surprise for me. I sighed again and I didn't notice I get a company in galley.
MIKE'S POV
As I entered in galley, I saw that Bomber was bad. She was sighing and definitely she was distracted. I was even scare to let her on boardings. Now I noticed she was so preoccupied with her thoughts she even didn't notice me coming in.
"Becca are you ok?" I asked. Bomber looked for a moment in and then put a fake smile on her face.
"I am. I am. Just too tired." Bomber answered. "Honestly Mike. This was long tour. That is all." she added with smile.
"You look bit distracted since you came from sick leave. And I saw you and Buffer are not on good lines either." I said remembering how they were avoiding each other on any ways they could.
"We are good. Just l... you know us." Bomber said and smiled.
"Ok. I will take a coffee." I said and take a cup of coffee and I returned back on bridge where Buffer was in his own thoughts too. 'Great. What the hell happened while I was in coma?' I thought and sit in my chair.
Couple weeks later
NOBODY'S POV
Hammersley docked back in his home port after one more successful finished tour. Crew was leaving a ship for two weeks for a shore leave between tours.
ZAC'S POV
I was waiting Becca on dock with little present for her. She was all for me and only thing what I was having in my life and I wanted to spent rest of my life with her. I wanted to return all what we had before she came on this bloody and hell ship. I watched her as she went out of ship and stand to chat with that guy, ship's buffer. I didn't like him from first moment. Obnoxious idiot and arrogant jerk. He was thinking he was best and he could order to anyone. And the hardest thing was Becca liked him much more than just as a friend. I saw that on Samaru island. I sighed. Walsman should to kill him, it would be best for all of us.
BOMBER'S POV
I walked out of ship and was walking towards front deck when I was faced with Buffer. We barely were speaking last couple weeks, trying to avoid each other.
"Buff, we can't like this. It is killing both of us." I said and he stopped and looked into me with his beautiful brown eyes.
"I know. Mike asked me 100 times till now why are we avoiding each other. I said he is wrong." Buffer answered with sigh.
"I am sorry for all. I shouldn't kiss you. We should to stop it but we didn't." I said with sigh. Buffer looked into me and put his hand on my cheek and caressed it with his hand. I trembled. Every time when he was touching me, even just in passing by, I was trembling and forgetting on everything and everyone. Just like now. Again I just wanted to wrap my arms around him and to kiss him, but two things stopped me. A) navy and rules and B) my boyfriend who was standing on dock looking slightly pissed.
"It is not your fault. I should to stop it and not to take advantage on you while you were upset." Buffer said still caressing my cheek. "Take care of yourself and see you in two weeks." he added and move his hand. I nodded and kiss his cheek not carrying where we were. I smiled and went on dock ready for Zac's jealousy impact.
I step close to him and looked into him waiting he start again that I am too close to Buffer. But he didn't.
"Do you know how much I love you?" he asked and looked into me. I was little bit confused with that question.
"Yes I do..." I started to answer but he stopped me.
"No you don't know." he said and knelt in front of me as he held little box with ring in front of me. "Will you marry me and made me most happy guy on planet Earth?" he added. I was totally shocked with his question. Before I would answer him without thinking and now I wasn't sure in anything anymore. I looked for a moment on deck where Buffer was standing now with Swain and Charge. I knew if I said no it will bring a big trouble to me and Buffer because I won't be able to hold these feelings behind.
"I will." I said feeling weird. He pick me up and twirl me in air and kiss him and put a ring on my hand while I was thinking on another thing. Rest of crew was coming and congratulating. Mike was happy as everyone other. Stacey, who came too just hug me knowing all what happened in last awhile.
