Wwwwwwwhhhhhhhhoooooooosssssshhhhhh.

Some last-minute trainers flew over the base.Jamie watched them from the BTS office.He directed his attention to the lonely bunker on the north side of the base.A small dot was visible on the roof.Jamie sighed as he pulled up his chair to the window,sat down with a piece of paper and a pen.He clicked the pen and wrote;

Dear Maria,

Wwwwwwhhhhhhooooooooossssssshhhhhhhhhh.

The fliers flew another lap around the base.Maria sat on her roof,arms wrapped around her knees,her head resting on them.Maria stared at the sun that was just now setting.The two moons of planet Zi just visible,along with a few stars.Maria flatted the piece of paper in front of her and clicked the pen in her hand.She was unsure if this was a good idea,but wrote one thing across the top before stopping;

Dear Jamie,

Knock,knock,knock.

1 "Mr. Hermons?You have some mail"

Jamie took the mail and thumbed throught it.One from his dad,he set that one on the desk to read later,and a few from the development center,he also set those on the desk to read later,and one from….

"What's this?"Jamie said as he looked at the plain white envelop with his name scribbled on the front.Jamie grabbed his letter opener and slid it through the envelop.He unfolded the letter and read;

Dear Jamie,

I thought that I should write to you,not just Leena.I'm not sure if this is a good idea,but think of it as a theory that I have to test.I'm not even sure what to say.Heh,I could get in more trouble then I'm already in if I get caught writing this.You may think at this point,getting in trouble is a past time for me,that I LIKE to get in trouble.Maybe I just like to bend the rules alittle,not really a smart thing to do out here is it?I'll get my wings back,they can't take them away for long.Anyway,If you do get this before some one else does,write back to me.



From,

Maria C.

P.S

Don't worry,I'll take the blame if we do get caught.I can't get into any more trouble,can I?

Jamie finished reading the letter from Maria.She was right,they could get in A LOT of trouble for this.It was a rule that pilots or officers could not send letters within the base.But,he also felt that maybe this way they might get some feelings out.Jamie had to think long and hard about where that little thought came from as he slid his letter opener thought his dad's and unfolded it.He started to read…

Bam,bam,bam.

Maria looked up from the book she was reading.She walked to the door."Mail for ya Cloud." "Thanks."Maria shut the door.She only had two letters,one frome Leena,she set that one on the bed,and one from…

"What's this?"Maria said as she looked at the plain white envelop,her name neatly printed on the front.Maria tore it open,unfolded it and read;

Dear Maria,

I'm really not sure how to start this,other then,I heard what happen.I can't Believe Johnson would do that to you!And for that amount of time too!Uh,I noticed that you're the only girl staionted up here,just making an observation, but now I can see why you get into as much trouble as you do.I hope that you will write back,I think that it would be good for us to write to each other.

From,

Jamie Hermons

Maria was alittle speachlees.Jamie?Writing to her?She didn't know what to think,other then to set Jamie's aside and read Leena's letter.

Mr. Hemons,

We regret to inform you that you father,Mr Osacer Hermons,Has past away due to a heart attack...

Jamie only had to read that line to drop the letter.He held on to the desk to support himself.He couldn't believe it.Jamie covered his face as he started to cry.He pulled out a piece of paper,a pen and scribbled;

Dear Maria,

Dear Maria,

I'm afraid that the food is the same at every base,we should protest,lol.-_- They give everybody the SAME amount of ammo and we HAVE to be careful with it,they'er no fun.I wish that I could say more but its so dull here so write back.

-Leena Toros

Maria smiled at the letter,she'll have to write to her after work.Maria took out a shoe box,put Jamie and Leena's letters in it,slid it back in its hiding place and got ready to go to the supplies shed.

Jamie dried his eyes,folded the letter in the envelop and stuffed it in his pocket,he would mail it later,right now,he had work to do,But,a few minutes later,he was sobbing.Jamie,asked if he could take the day off.Noone asked what was wrong,they just said that he could.Jamie thanked them and walked down to his bunker,where he spent the rest of his time crying.

Maria wasn't having the best of luck either.Some guys harassed her,whitch she forced herself to walk away from,She dropped something that she was carring,and it spilt all over.Maria cursed as she picked the things up and cussed out any one that came to see what had happened.After a very long hour,Maria sat behind some extra tiers,paper and pen in hand.She clicked the pen and wrote;

Dear Jamie,

Jamie spent the rest of the day in the bunker.He only answered the door once to get some late mail.Jamie looked at it as he sat on the bed.Another one from Maria.Jamie opened it and read;

Dear Jamie,

How do we mange to put up with those pilots!Two of them came and harassed me,which I did walk away from,stupid conscious. After that,I dropped something and made a big mess.I'm so stressed right now.But,I did get a letter from Leena today.I'll have to write to her when I get out of this sweat cage.I hope that your work isn't driving you insane as mine is.

From,

Maria C.

Jamie smiled.He would have to write to her later.Jamie thought about it,"Hey,writing to her might be a good thing.Wait…Where is that coming from?"Jamie thought out loud as he rolled over in his bed,but,then more thoughts came to mind.Jamie soon went to sleep,the thoughts never leaving him.

Maria slammed her bunker door,muttering under her breathe.She put on her gloves that had the fingers cut off and started her routine of hitting the punching bag.No sooner had she started,some late mail came.Maria only stopped her mutting when she noticed it was from Jamie.She opened it and read;

Dear Maria,

I just got some really bad news.My dad died.I can't believe it,I just got a letter from him last week and we sounded fine.I don't know what to do,I'm taking the day off,maybe even tomorrow too.They asked me to sort of his belongings! I can't do it Maria!I can't do it!

From,

Jamie Hermons

Maria couldn't and didn't want to believe it.She collapsed on the bed as she read the letter.She quickly grabbed a pen and a piece of paper and scribbled;

Jamie-
