Ok so I didn't get two updates in one day, but i did get two updates in! Hope you all enjoy! And don't forget to review!
The night was air was filled of German voices, singing in what sounded like a drunken state. Along with the light flash of lightning and the slight drizzle of rain. Diana had tried to get Blithe to come down into the fox whole that she and Martin had dug. But Blithe wouldn't budge.
"He'll come down when he's ready." Martin said with a roll of his eyes. "Leave him alone."
"I'm just worried." Diana replied. All of the sudden Blithe slid down next to Diana.
"What do they have to sing about." Martin asked. He still hadn't slept. And his attitude was showing it.
"God who knows Martin, maybe the fact that they have us stuck here." Diana replied. "Or maybe the fact that they have booze and we don't. Jerry bastards. They could have thrown a couple bottles our way with all those mortars."
Martin gave her an odd look. He had never really thought Diana was a big drinker. The other three girls could drink with the best of them. All of the sudden they heard some one coming around the trees. Both Martin and Diana raised their guns.
"Flash!" Martin demanded. Welsh came sliding down from the trees.
"Thunder." Welsh replied with a smile. Both Diana and Martin lowered their weapons. "Catchy tune ain't it."
"Hey lieutenant, what's the news." Martin asked settling back into the fox whole.
"Well, the same it was this afternoon." Welsh replied. "They're in their. Hedge row, we're in ours."
Diana had the faint suspicion that he was a little on the drunk side. And she was a little jealous.
"Spell me a minute sir?" Martin asked. Welsh sighed a bit then looked down at the sergeant. He didn't fully understand why he was asking, considering Diana was also in his fox whole.
"Let Blithe get some sack time. Diana you need to get some sleep as well." Welsh said and Diana shook her head.
"No chance of that any time soon." Diana replied. Then turned to Martin. "I told you to go a hundred times the past fifteen minutes."
"And leave you here with just Blithe." Martin said rolling his eyes. "I heard about the tongue lashing Lieb got. I'd rather have you over protected. So Welsh what do you say?"
"Is it really that bad?" Welsh asked.
"The back teeth are floating." Martin replied.
Welsh seemed a little annoyed by Martin's small attitude. He looked over at Diana and knew she was beyond annoyed by him. "Get back here ASAP, Martin."
"You can count on me sir." Martin said quickly getting out of the fox whole to only be replaced by Welsh.
"Thought you'd be with Winters." Welsh said and Diana sighed.
"Haven't seen him since he ordered me to stick with Martin and Blithe." Diana replied. Welsh smirked.
"Did he really send Estee to the front line with me and Luz?" Welsh asked. "Or did she just say that so she could get in on a little more action?"
"He sent her. He knew she needed to shoot something, or she'd go do something stupid." Diana replied. "Like she did in Carentan."
"Yeah, I heard she took out a house of German officers." Blithe said. It was the first thing he had said in a couple of hours.
"Yeah but Sami walked them into that one." Diana replied. "I was talking about her getting captured, then taking out one of those stupid German guns on her own."
"I heard there were only five men manning that gun." Welsh said and Diana rolled her eyes.
"Yeah, well that's not the point." Diana said. She then sighed. "But I don't know why I'm complaining to you. I saw your stunt taking out that machine gun. If Kitty had seen that! When i meet her, I'm telling her."
Welsh smirked then quickly changed the subject. Kitty had been a little upset that there were women in his company, so he had the girls write to her. Know the girls were great friends with his girlfriend. "How you doing Blithe?"
Diana smirked and closed her eyes. She attempted to block out Welsh and Blithe's conversation and try to sleep. But it seemed the moment she did she got woken up again by Martin.
"Hey, your to report to Winters." Martin said with a smirk. "He just went south with Welsh."
Diana groaned and got out of the fox whole. She stumbled her way to Winters and almost trip over her own two feet when she did reach his side.
"Did Martin wake you up?" Winters asked a little annoyed.
"Yeah, but he knew if he didn't, I would have yelled at him later for not...ok in my head that made better since." Diana said with a yawn. Welsh smirked and handed his canteen to her.
"Take a swig of that. It will wake you." He said. Diana ignored Winters's stern glare and took a swing. What ever it was, was very strong. It burned all the way down.
"Oh yeah, that is a definant wake up." Diana replied. "Just don't let Estee know you have that. She'll dry you out."
Winters smirked. "She's already snuck over to Nix. I'm sure she's doing just fine with what ever he had snuck to her."
Estee curled up in Liebgott's arms as she attempted to fall asleep. But sleep was the last thing her body wanted to do. She was a little scared to fall asleep actually. Afraid that if she did, she wouldn't wake up. Liebgott let out a small snore and Estee giggled. He instinctively brought her closer to him, then adjusted so she would be more comfortable. Estee smiled up at him. She couldn't help herself. She was starting to fall for him. She heard some one coming up to her fox hole and she quickly moved out of Liebgott's arms. He woke instantly.
"What's wrong?" Liebgott asked.
"Hey guys." Talbert said slipping down into the fox hole with them. "You guys get any sleep?"
Estee shook her head. "I didn't. But Joseph did."
Liebgott sighed. "You really didn't sleep?"
Estee shook her head once again. Liebgott bowed his head. "Maybe you should go find Roe. He told me to send you to him if you hadn't slept."
"I'll be fine." Estee said laying her head on his shoulder. Talbert smirked knowing that Liebgott was going red in the face. Liebgott lightly kissed her forehead.
"Go. Its my turn to patrol anyway." Liebgott replied. "And Winters ordered that none of you girls were to be with out one of us guys."
Estee smirked. "Yeah, only so Diana could stay in his fox hole."
Estee climbed out of the fox hole and went to find Roe. She knew he was a ways in the back. She found him in no time. He was fast asleep with his helmet slightly covering his eyes. Estee slid down into the fox hole, making sure not to wake him. She then laid down next to him.
"I didn't think you'd sleep." Roe said bringing her closer to him. "Liebgott must be on patrol."
Estee turned to face him. "You should be sleeping."
Roe smirked at her. "I had been. I woke up when you laid down."
Estee blushed a bit. Then turned her face from him.
"Can i check your arm?" Roe asked. "I know i can't see it. But i need to know if the bandage is soaked through or not."
Estee sat up so he could do the same. Roe once again helped her take off her jacket. As before he let his fingers lightly run down her arm. He felt the bandage, finding it dry. He then slowly brought her jacket back up into place. Estee gasped a bit as his hand lightly came to rest on her cheek. He ran his finger over her fat lip and all the sudden Estee was very aware that his face was only inches from hers. Roe moved his hand to the back of her neck and gently pulled her to him. Just as his lips lightly brushed hers, some one called out for a medic.
"I think your going to cause problems for me, Eugene." Estee said her voice cracked a couple of times. "Why do you affect me this way?"
Roe pulled away at once. He didn't know what possessed him to do what he had done. "I have no clue. I've got to go."
Roe quickly got out of the fox hole then stopped. "You'd better come. If Winters finds out i left you alone, he wouldn't be to happy."
Estee smiled and got out of the fox whole. She then followed. Her eyes got wide when she realized who was calling out for a medic. Liebgott and Talbert.
"Roe." Estee said worriedly. Roe took her hand and didn't let it go till they got to Talbert. He was laying up against a tree as he and Liebgott tried to stop his chest from bleeding. Liebgott was questioning him about the wounds, not even giving him the chance to answer.
"I got it from here." Roe said then nodded his head towards Estee. She was staring down at Talbert. Her mouth open slightly and tears trying to escape her eyes. She looked at Roe and met his eyes. At once they both looked away, a little red in their faces. Liebgott seemed to since something had happened between them cause he quickly took Estee to his fox whole, but when he got there he didn't talk. Estee sighed. There she went once again with the drama.
"Ich aufgeben." Liebgott said under his breath.
Estee looked up at him confused. "What?"
Liebgott turned to her sadly. "I said I give up."
Estee shook her head. "No."
She took his hands in hers and brought him to her. "You can't give up on me. Cause I do care for you Joseph. I care for you allot."
Liebgott didn't know what to say. She admitted it. After all this time, she had finally said those words.
"Do you like Roe too?" Liebgott asked. Estee knew there was no use in lying. He'd know if she did.
"I like you better." Estee answered honestly. She couldn't understand why though. With the entice sexual tension between her and Roe, Liebgott was still her number one choice. He always had been. Liebgott's lips pressed against hers before she could say anything else, but the kiss didn't last long. They were soon interrupted by Maci and Speirs. And by the look on Maci's face. Estee wasn't the only girl having an interesting night.
"Awe Estee got her first real kiss." Maci cooed.
"Shut up Maci." Estee said shyly. "It wasn't my first kiss."
"Getting kissed by Jeff doesn't count." Maci said with a smirk. "Its your first kiss from a man you didn't grow up with. How about that."
Estee crossed her arms and looked away. Liebgott smirked and wrapped his arms around her. "First kiss huh. Looks like i just won even more money on that bet.
Estee pulled away from him, but he laughed and brought her back into his arms. "Estee, i was just teasing."
"You'd better be giving me a cut of your winnings." Estee growled back at him. "Or that will be the only kiss you get from me."
Speirs smirked. "Sorry to do this to you two, but I was told to leave Maci with you two. Something about her wondering off."
Maci blushed a bit and if Estee hadn't been glaring at Speirs, she would have missed him wink at Maci.
"Thanks for walking me here, Lieutenant." Maci seemed to coo.
"Yeah thanks Speirsy." Estee said mimicking Maci. Speirs just smirked and walked away. At that moment nothing could tick him off.
