Danny true to his word wrote Ann on a regular basis and she wrote back. Danny jr. had only been a way for a month and she missed him dearly, she counted down the days till he returned for Christmas, it was the beginning of September thus he would come in about four months, that was an eternity for Ann.
Danny jr. was right in assuming that hell came with the air force. It was a packaged deal. All his ranking officers seemed to hate him but enjoy ruining his life or what he had of one at this point; the military life was nothing of how it was explained to him by Rafe. Danny jr's best friend Nick was at a different base and it was hard making friends, he was so lonely not to mention he was homesick and missed his family.
Ann hated school which she had started earlier in September and Evelyn jr. was driving her crazy showing up at inconvient moments and trying to turn her into a " lady" now that she wasn't running all over creation with Danny jr. God how she wished he would come home.
The autumn soon turned to winter and the leaves were replaced with white snow. It was near Christmas and Danny jr. was coming home soon. On the last day of school before break. Ann ran home as fast as she could to escape the damned cold that pierced her very skin and sunk into her bones. Upon arriving home, she found a note on the door instructing her to change and report to her Aunt and Uncle's for dinner. Damn thought Ann, not another session on how to be a "lady" thought Ann as she ran up stairs and changed out of her school clothes and made her way across the street. Ann walked up the steps and through the front door. She wondered why the hell was she called over when she turned and came face to face with none other than Danny jr. " Danny, you scarred the hell out of me" she squealed as she hugged him. " Glad to see you too" said Danny jr quietly. Ann pulled away and looked at him, he looked so tired and unhappy. She tried to ignore it as she went to sit at the dinner table with the rest of her family.
Danny jr. went to his bedroom after everyone had left and his mother had stopped fussing over him. He looked around, God how he had taken this for granted when he was younger. In the military, he had to share a room with a bunch of mainly drunk party animals whom he tried to avoid usually. He mainly kept to himself. He quietly walked down the stairs, he needed to get some fresh air. After quietly shutting the front door, he walked to his fathers grave and sat down. God how he wished he were young he thought shutting his eyes reflecting on the last few months. He opened his eyes and sighed, his last few months had been some of the worse he had ever had.
Ann needed to get out of the house, after her parents fell asleep she went where she always went to find solace, her uncle Danny's grave. She stopped in her tracks at the sight of someone, she knew who it was. It was Danny jr. He was silent except she could see him shaking slightly with his knee's tucked to his chest. She watched him for a moment silently. It broke her heart to see him like this.
Danny jr. was crying silently to himself. He was so lonely and confuesed he didn't know where to start.
Ann slowly walked over to Danny jr. and sat next to him. " Aren't you cold"she asked breaking the silence. "Doesn't really matter" he replied quietly looking down. " Oh " she said not knowing what else to say. " Danny what's wrong" asked Ann she knew earlier he was upset but this was beyond what she thought. Danny didn't answer her. " Danny" she said uncertainly. He still didn't answer. Ann was just about to get up when he finally spoke " Ann don't leave" he whispered. Ann was caught off guard. She sat back down and tried her question again " Danny what's wrong, why are you so unhappy"? Danny jr. was silent a moment and sighed " I just guess I'm having a hard time adjusting to the military life style and I'v been a little homesick too" said Danny jr. " The other's hate me but enjoy making my life a living hell" he added. " Why didn't you say anything" asked Ann. " You never mentioned it in your letters" Ann added. " Your right, I didn't" replied Danny jr. getting up. He pulled Ann up and told her to keep up.
" You see I live in this building with a bunch of heavy alcoholics who party and stuff and let's face it I don't tend to be that kind of person very often" said Danny jr. " I pretty much keep to myself and only do what i have to do" he continued. " I guess what i am saying is I really regret joining the air force" finished Danny jr. " So why are you still in the air force if it makes you so miserable" asked Ann confused. If he hated it so much maybe he would stay home. " I don't know, I guess that I don't want to be labeled as a quieter you know" said Danny jr. " Besides I signed a year contract and I just can't stay, I have to go back" said Danny jr. " Danny are you sure because I really miss you and you aren't happy......" started Ann. " Ann I have to go back in a few days and there's nothing you can do" interupted Danny jr. " And you had better go to bed before your parents find out you left and worry" instructed Danny jr telling Ann good-night as he walked her to the door and went home.
