Danny awoke the next morning to an empty room. He sat up and wiped the sleep from his eyes while trying to focus on the clock. Hmm.6:00 AM and no one is back. I wonder if Rafe stayed out with that nurse all night. That doesn't seem like something he would do.

Danny crawled out of bed and stumbled to the shower. He couldn't hear Rafe come in and collapse on the bed. When Danny came out of the shower, he discovered Rafe lying on the bed staring at the ceiling.

"Hey, man! Where were you all night?" Danny asked. "Were you with that nurse?"

"Yeah, but its not what you think, nothing happened. We sat down on the pier and both fell asleep." Rafe replied.

"Is that the same nurse you met the other day?" Danny said.

"Yes, Evelyn her name is. Oh, god.she's beautiful. There is nothing wrong with her. She's pretty, funny, cute, smart, sexy." Rafe continued.

"Wow, it seems the two of you really hit it off." Danny said, once again thinking about the mysterious nurse he had seen last night.

"Yeah, she's great. But I have good news for you. Our orders came in and we're being sent to Pearl Harbor. I don't know why, its about as far away from the fighting as you can get."

"Neat." Danny said, while thinking that he might never see his nurse again.

"That's not all. Evelyn and her group of nurses also got their orders. They're going to Pearl too. Maybe your nurse is with that bunch." Rafe finished.

Danny's heart jumped with momentary hope. He still didn't know what to do about it though. Maybe if.

The ring of the telephone interrupted his thought. Rafe rushed to the ringing receiver and picked it up. Danny, judging by the way that the conversation was going, knew that it was Evelyn. Much to Danny's surprise, Rafe asked Evelyn if she knew of any of her friends that saw Danny last night. He explained the look the two had shared. Evelyn said no, no one had said anything about it, knowing that the mysterious nurse was her.

***************************************************** Evelyn hung up the phone and sat down in the chair and thought about what just happened. Obviously Danny was still thinking of her. And she couldn't stop thinking about Rafe's handsome friend, Danny. But she was with Rafe. After their magical moonlit stroll last night, she had completely fallen for him. But her thoughts kept returning to Danny. Suddenly, another thought entered her mind. What if Danny saw her and Rafe, since Danny didn't know that it was her. But if he saw her again, what would happen? Evelyn buried her face in her hands and contemplated her choices.
