[Haddock-Raseri Apartment]

As planned, Troy and Hayden took all of Monday to unpack from their honeymoon. Troy and Hayden woke up around 7:40 am, feeling entirely rested and recovered from the fantastic week they had, and then the equally long flight home to Archia Isle. Troy and Hayden ended up making love for forty-five minutes after waking up, then they continued to lay in bed, snuggling together until about 9 am when it was decided to get up and shower. After the shower, Troy and Hayden started unpacking, then cleaning the place up for when family and friends would inevitably come over after their workdays ended. Troy and Hayden set the time to be 5 pm, and they would take care of dinner too. Troy and Hayden decided to go out and by the things to make a big batch of baked macaroni and cheese with broccoli and chicken.

"There. Everything is all done," Hayden said after he completed setting the table. The fun part about their four-seater dining room table is that it could be pulled out and add leaflets to make it larger space for everyone to sit at. If that wasn't enough, Troy and Hayden had a folding table with metal chairs in the basement.

A knock on the door got their attention. "And just in time," Troy chuckled as he kissed Hayden lovingly. Troy and Hayden moved to the main entrance and opened the door to be instantly greeted by Cole, Rosanna, and little Evalina who now a year and two months old, beginning to walk and talk. Next was Spencer and Vivian, followed by Avery. After them came Rachel and Dustin. Hailey and Fisher with Drew, then last to enter was Rylee, Tyler, and Shane. Gabriel would arrive a bit later because he had work until 5:30 pm.

"Oh, it's so good to see both of you again," Rachel hugged her son, and son and law tightly.

"You too, Mom," Troy told her while Hayden was hugging his parents.

"It sucks you too just got home and have to leave at 5 am," Tyler muttered after shaking Troy and Hayden's hands.

"It's the way it is; we'll be home in January, though," Hayden informed.

"Seems so far away," Vivian stated.

"Are you two all packed for tomorrow?" Spencer wondered.

"Yep," Troy nodded, motioning to the bags by the door.

"Dinner smells divine," Rosanna giggled.

"Hayden's recipe," Troy smiled as everyone entered the kitchen/dining room area to take a seat.

"Hayden got his ability to cook from me," Spencer chuckled, promptly earning him a smack on the arm from his unamused wife. "What, Viv? You know you can't cook,"

"And you know where the couch is because that's where you're sleeping tonight," Vivian remarked.

"Viv! Come on!" Spencer complained. Vivian ignored him with her arms over her chest as Hayden and Troy fought snickering at the two.

"So, how was the trip?" Avery asked.

"I don't even have the words to describe it," Hayden admitted. "Everyone just get comfortable, and we can tell you over dinner, then maybe show some pictures. Everything is on Troy's laptop," he said as everyone did so while the meal was passed out.

. . .

By 5:45 pm, Gabriel arrived and joined in right at the moment Hayden and Troy were beginning to show photos of the hotel, each park, and memorable moments throughout the day.

"Your room is beautiful," Hailey swooned. "Fisher, can we go there for our honeymoon?"

"How about we get engaged and married first babe," Fisher chuckled. Hailey nodded to him, content with the answer.

"Did you two get a chance to do everything you wanted?" Rylee asked.

"And with time to spare," Troy replied.

"Oh, and we brought everyone a little something," Hayden added as he went to get the bag from the bedroom. Troy and Hayden handed everything out. Evelina got a Mickey Mouse hat with ears and her name embroidered on the back. Everyone else got a character keychain with whoever their favorite was. Gabriel got a t-shirt, though, because Hayden had a feeling Gabriel might lose anything small.

"Awe, thank you guys," Avery and the girls admired their keychains.

"You're welcome," Troy said.

"Do you two have a definite on when you return in January?" Shane asked.

"Not yet, hoping Bludvist will have an answer soon," Hayden responded.

"We'll let you know," Troy added.

"Well, I'm glad you two had a good time," Vivian smiled.

"Was way better than good," Troy remarked.

"Troy…" Hayden warned.

"What babe?" Troy said innocently. Hayden already knew where his husband was going with that comment. "The trip was incredible," he chuckled as Hayden eyed him a moment, then relaxed. "So was all the sex, including this morning,"

"Troy!" Hayden glared, trying to be mad. Troy smirked as he moved behind his husband, locking his arms around Hayden's waist.

"Relax, Love. You know it was an amazing week for us," Troy whispered, brushing his lips against Hayden's ear. "All the times I held you like this on the balcony of our room after a long day at the park, telling you how much I love you," Hayden's anger began to melt away, snuggling into his husband's loving arms. "Kissing you just the right way that made you go weak in the knees before we'd shut the curtain, turns off the lights, and make sweet love for an hour or two," this time Troy pressed his lips to Hayden's neck in the sensitive place that drove Hayden mad. Troy sucked on it a little as Hayden's knees nearly gave out, but Troy held him up, so he didn't fall. Troy chuckled a little and hugged Hayden tighter.

"Damn, never seen Hayden get like that before," Shane snickered with Drew and Tyler.

"Hey, s-stop that!" Hayden protested. "What have I told you about sucking on it?"

"You're gonna have to be specific, babe. Sucking on what because last I check you loved the orgasm you get when I give you a blowjob," Troy smirked.

"T-Troy!" Hayden stammered loudly as Troy sucked on the spot again. "S-Stop it! Y-You know what it does!"

"Indeed I do," Troy just turned Hayden's body and kissed him passionately, causing Hayden to instantly shut up and completely relax. Everyone else blinked at the sight when Troy bent a little and picked Hayden with his hands on Hayden's hips, then made sure to lock Hayden's legs around his waist before walking out of the living room and into their bedroom. A few people glanced around the doorway as Troy put Hayden' on the bed, back down.

"You just enjoy the pictures; we'll be done in about fifteen-twenty minutes," Troy closed the door with a grin. It wasn't tough for any of them, except for Evelina, to figure out that whenever Troy did certain things to Hayden; it turned him on quickly. That's why as soon as Hayden began to stammer and tell Troy to stop because he knew what it did, Troy turned Hayden around so no one would see him get hard. Now, Troy was taking Hayden into the room to take care of it. Oh well, what did it matter anyway? Troy and Hayden had to go back to Afghanistan tomorrow so they wouldn't be able to do these kinds of things there. Might as well soak up as much of the free time to have sex as they could. Everyone was still surprised about how fast it happened, but whatever. The group continued to scroll through the pictures, and wait for Troy and Hayden to return.

[Barbarki Base-Kandahar, Afghanistan; Sector A]

Troy and Hayden landed in Afghanistan at 9 pm after leaving Archia Isle at 5 am. There was a flight to go from Archia to Hungary, then Turkey, and finally landing where they were now. The layovers weren't bad, and the two already couldn't wait for January to come so they could go home and continue enjoying married life again. Reaching their sector on base; they had already been informed that all members of the company were in the Mess Hall for a late dinner as they'd all returned back from different missions at 8:45 pm. Troy and Hayden grinned as they walked in to see everyone.

"Hey! Guess who is back!?" Hayden and Troy announced.

"HAYDEN!"

"TROY!"

The two lovers laughed and made their way over to everyone, getting welcomed back. Finally, they reached Donovan. "Good to see you've returned," he said shaking their hands.

"Eh, there's only three months left; I'm sure we can handle it," Hayden replied.

"Happy to hear that," Donovan smiled. "So, I know I speak for everyone when I say…Tell us everything!" he laughed. Troy and Hayden sat down as everyone did their best to gather around to hear how the honeymoon went. Troy even hooked up his laptop to show the slideshow of pictures from the remainder of the wedding and the honeymoon. By 10:45 pm, it was decided to get some sleep because regular work resumed tomorrow for them. Hayden and Troy took up their old spots in the A-I1 Barrack and crashed fast. There were only three months to go; Hayden and Troy knew they could deal with that, then get to return to Berk and hopefully not have to worry about another tour for a while.

[Undisclosed Location]

"Hayden! Look out!" Troy yelled. Before Hayden could look or react to what his husband yelled, Hayden was shoved out of the way and rolled off to the side. Hayden coughed a bit and lifted his head just in time to see a zip through where he'd been standing and hit Troy.

"TROY!" Hayden screamed in horror and fear. Troy laid motionless where he'd been struck by the vehicle that had zoomed out of sight before anyone could shoot it. Hayden scrambled to his feet and hurried over, dropping next to his husband. Hayden was careful not to move Troy at all because he could see that Troy had definitely broken his leg from the hit. Hayden was scared, panicking, but he knew to stay as calm as possible. Hayden checked Troy's pulse, thanking Odin when he felt one and saw Troy breathing too. Hayden was almost grateful that Troy was just unconscious, but knew he needed medical care right away. Hayden wanted to cry; this happened to Troy because of him. Troy got hurt protecting Hayden because Hayden didn't see the Jeep coming.

"We need to get him back to the base, Lieutenant," Jannike stated quickly.

"We gotta make a splint to transport him," Andrew stated. Theodore and Harry brought over a broken board, then Jannike and Nicole worked to get it in place with some rope.

"Aside from the leg; he's a little banged up, and might have a concussion. The doctors at the combat hospital will be able to take care of it," Nicole informed. Hayden nodded, showing he heard, but of course, all his concern was if Troy would be alright. Hayden held Troy's hand, stroking it, and pleading for Troy to hang in there because he needed him. A few of the guys worked together to get Troy on the first chopper, and Hayden sitting beside him. Everyone else piled into the first or second helicopters, then they took off to return to the Barbarki Base.

. . .

(4:45 pm)

[Barbarki Base; Helipad]

An ambulance was waiting on the helicopter pad as the crew rushed Troy in and Hayden tagged along. Donovan rushed forward to meet them as he'd been informed by Seymour Wilde that Troy was severely hurt and unconscious after saving Hayden's life after the contact mission had gone horribly wrong and turned into a dangerous firefight. The three teams from the Inferno Platoon managed to unpin themselves and push enemies back until the area was secured, but a few enemies got away in a Jeep that was heading for Hayden fast. Troy pushed Hayden out of the way and took the hit himself. Donovan sighed, already knowing that if Troy had a broken leg, then his time on this tour at least, was over.

"We'll wait to see what the staff at the CSH has to say about Staff Sergeant Raseri's condition," Donovan stated. The Warriors nodded, soon leaving to get back to A Sector of the base.

. . .

(5:05 pm)

[Barbarki Combat Support Hospital]

Hayden didn't do anything after arriving except watch helplessly as Troy was taken into surgery immediately. Hayden could only sit in the waiting area of the OR(Operating Room), with his head down and in his palms while hoping that he got some information about Troy soon.
