So this Liz! Figured I'd help write a bit but don't get used to it lol I'm only doin it cause I love this story and there is no way

Maci sat outside of the house she and the other girls were staying at. She was hoping to see him. She hadn't even seen a glimpse of him since, well it was a long time. Sighing heavily she stood and looked one more time around at all the soldiers. He was still no where to be seen. She slowly turned and headed inside. She paused for a second when she thought she heard some one clear their throat. But no it couldn't have been. Her imagination was getting the better of her.

"If you don't turn around there is no point in me staying." He said with a slight smirk on his handsome face. Maci turned slightly and looked at him over her shoulder. She then turned back to face the doorway.

"Do you need an invitation?" She asked. "Or are you going to come in?"

Speirs stood their a second longer then walked up behind her. He wrapped her arms around her slender waist and brought hr to him. He kissed her neck tenderly.

"Have you been behaving?" Speirs asked in a husky voice. "Other than staying the night with Bull?"

Maci smirked to herself. He never missed a thing when it came to her.

"That was the worst night." Maci admitted more to herself than to him. "Sleeping in a hay pile, not knowing if I'd be woken in the middle of the night by German gun fire or be found in the morning by our people."

Speirs held her closer to him. Knowing that she had been scared. And he hadn't been there to protect her.

"Maybe you should transfer to Dog." Speirs suggested. "I can protect you more."

Maci laughed and turned in his arms. "You know I can't do that. I can't leave my friends. And Bull took care of me. We are needed in this company more than they know. They need us girls."

Speirs smiled down at her. "Your right. The men of Easy look after you girls more than they do themselves. But I still don't like being separated for as long as we were."

Mac lightly kissed his lips. "Get used to it. We are in a war you know."

Liebgott rolled his eyes as he came out of the girls' sleeping quarters. Once again his girlfriend was missing. It seemed like every time he turned his back she disappeared. Her friend weren't helping his growing annoyance one bit. They always told him the same thing. "I thought she was with you." "She's a grown woman Joe, let her be for once." or the one thing he hated hear the most. "Go find Roe. he'll know."

She had been spending a lot of time with the medic. His once competition was beginning to worry him. He couldn't lose her to him. Yes he was a good man. But Liebgott had been through so much to win Estee over. It was like he had been fighting two wars. And he wasn't going to lose either.

"Joseph." he heard her call his name. Such a sweet sound despite his anger with her. She walked up to him and placed her arm around his. "I heard you were looking for me." She said placing a kiss on his cheek. He blushed a bit, but kept his eyes stern.

"Where have you been?" He asked. His voice already giving away his ceased anger. "Two days I have been looking for you."

Estee smiled sweetly at him. "Doing some typing for Nixon. He was gettin behind a bit."

Liebgott almost sighed in relief. She hadn't been with the medic. But his annoyance grew when the medic walked up to them and he felt his girlfriend tense. It grew even more when he felt her shudder as he gently placed a blood stained hand on her face. The medic nodded and walked away. that's another added annoyance. The lack of conversion between the two the last week. They never talked any more. Yet there was some kind of communication going on. Because they always knew what the other one would say or do.

"So what was that about?" Liebgott asked looking down at his girlfriend. She jumped at his question as if forgetting he was standing there. She had been watching him leave. Once again the damn medic was grabbing her full attention. His annoyance grew once again.

"He was just making sure the swelling was gone." Estee replied. "I guess it should have gone away awhile ago. So he thought it might have been a broken bone."

Liebgott sighed heavily and Estee rolled her eyes. She knew Lieb was very jealous of Roe. She stopped walking and made Liebgott face her. She put her hands on either side of his face and looked deep into his eyes.

"Joseph Liebgott, you have nothing to be worried about." Estee told him. "Because even though you piss me off alot, I still love you."

Liebgott smirked. "Did you just tell me you loved me?"

Estee rolled her eyes and lightly kissed his lips. "Don't let that get to your head."

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

Diana cuddled up to Winters and smiled up at him. He smiled back and wrapped his arms around her. He lightly kissed her neck and she giggled at his touch.

"What are your plans for after the war?" Winters asked. Diana brought the blanket up closer to her and shrugged.

"Who knows. Find a good man. Have babies." Diana said. When Winters didn't reply she laughed lightly and turned into him. "I'm joking. I'll be with you. Where ever you go. That's where I'll be."

Winters kissed her and brought himself on top of her. "Good answer."

Diana brought him closer to him and the were interrupted by a knock on the door. Diana sighed and quickly grabbed her clothes. Winters on the other hand just put his pants back on. He then answered the door.

"Sorry to interrupt. But we're movin out." Nixon said with a knowing smirk on his face. He then looked over Winters's shoulder knowing Diana was some where in the room. "Smith, I'll give you the ok to tell Olive."

"Thanks Nix." Diana said coming to the door. She gave Winters a quick kiss then turned to Nixon. "That will just make her day."

Nixon smiled at her and tossed her a bottle. "That should cheer her up."

Diana nodded and walked away. Winters watched her go with a smirk on his face.

"Damn Dick, I already know you slept with her." Nixon teased. "You don't have to stare at her like that."

Winters glared at his friend. "I'll be out soon Nix. Go ahead and get the others ready."

Winters shut the door and Nixon chuckled to himself. He loved messing with the two of them. First because they still acted shy around each other when others were around. And second because he knew they were the only couple that would put up with his crap.

Diana walked up to Liebgott and Estee. They were sitting on the steps Estee sitting between Liebgott's legs. She walked up to Estee and tossed her the bottle.

"What's this?" She asked holding it up.

"Peace offering from Nix." Diana replied.

"Why is he sending her a peace offering?" Lieb asked confused.

Estee sighed heavily. "Cause we're moving out again."

Liebgott sighed heavily. "Well this will be a joy. Better start packing."

Diana smirked down at Estee. "Five cigarettes say's she's already packed."

Estee smirked back. "Over heard Grandpa say we were moving out soon. So I packed two days ago."

Liebgott chuckled. "Maybe a heads up would be nice next time."

He kissed her lightly on the forehead then went to get packed. Diana smirked as she watched her friend. She was watching her boyfriend walk away with a slight tilt of the head and a smirk on her lips.

When Liebgott was out of sight Estee sighed heavily and turned to Diana. "Mind telling the other girls? I have a few things I need to do before we leave."

Diana rolled her eyes and nodded. She knew the girl was most likely running off to see Roe. That's where she always ran off too. Estee nodded and walked away. In the opposite direction Liebgott had gone. When she reached the med station she took a deep breath and walked in.

"How's he doing Doc?" Estee asked walking up to Roe and another medic as they stood over a man, changing a bandage.

"He's well enough to move out." Roe replied. "But the other on doesn't look to good."

Estee sighed and walked up to a bed across from where Roe and the other medic were. She sat down and took the man's hand in her own. The man groaned at her touch and slightly moved his head to look at her. He smirked when he saw her and closed his eyes once more.

"You don't have to come see me every day Estee." Rod said with a heavy sigh. "They'll be sending me home soon."

Estee smirked and shook her head at him even though he couldn't see her. "Who say's I'm here to see you? My cousin is across the room from you with a whole in his leg."

She smiled sadly at him and took a deep breath. "Rod if you don't eat, you wont be strong enough to be moved."

Rod chuckled lightly. "Don't worry about me Es. Your medic has taken good care of me and Clay. We'll both be home soon. We'll write you. Unlike Jeffy Pooh."

Estee smirked in response. He opened one eye and looked at her. "I should have known you were smirking. You know if my eyes are closed I can't see you right."

Estee rolled her eyes. "Yes Rod, I'm aware of that. And I'll be looking for your letters."

Estee stood and went to visit Clay. He and Rod had taken enemy fire while on patrol. Travis was also with them. But he made it with only a slight scratch on his arm.

She smiled down at him. "Stay safe on the way home."

Clay smirked back at her. "I'm not going home. There sending me to a hospital to get healed then I'm comin right back. Unlike Jeff. Little pussy."

Estee rolled her eyes. "You just make sure you recover."

Clay nodded. "I'll be fine."

Roe grabbed her arm and Estee said goodbye to Clay then followed Roe outside. "What are you going to tell Diana and Maci when they figure out their ex fiancées are gone?"

Estee sighed heavily. "They haven't found out yet. I'm sure they think Speirs is keeping them away from us."

Roe shook his head. "Eventually they will figure it out that they are gone. Then what are you going to say?"

Estee rolled her eyes. "That I kept it from them for their own safety."

"And what happens when they find out you lied?" Roe asked trying his best not to raise his voice at her and failing miserably. "I've seen how you girls take being lied too. This could break you girls."

Estee couldn't believe what he was saying. Roe had never believed what she did was wrong. Or at least he never told her about it. "When did you start second guessing me?"

Roe rolled his eyes. "I'm not second guessing you. I'm trying to make you think of the out come. Maci and Diana were in a relationship with these men."

"And Clay is my cousin!" Estee demanded. "You think this is easy on me? Seeing my cousin, who I'm very close with I may add, laying in a hospital bed with a whole in his leg? Or my cousin's best friend laying next to him with legs almost burnt to a crisp. This isn't easy for me to hide Eugene. So maybe next time you second guess my actions, maybe you should remember I never do something without second guessing it myself!"

Estee started to walk away but Roe grabbed her arm. She pulled away from her but Roe grabbed her arm again. "I'm not second guessing you Estee. I'm worried about you. And don't think I haven't noticed how hard this has been on you. To tell you the truth, Speirs told me not to tell you at all."

Estee looked at him in surprise. But before she could answer she heard some one call her name. She turned to see Liebgott standing across the street with Luz. Liebgott came over and took Estee's arm out of Roe's grasp and put her behind him.

"What the fuck are you two doing?" Liebgott demanded. All the annoyance he had before turned to rage as he looked at the medic.

"Nothing Joseph." Estee said moving back in front of him. "If you must know, I'm so fucking pissed off at Roe right now, that I'm about to step aside and let you beat him to death. But we need a good medic, and I need to have a word with Lieutenant Speirs."

"And because we don't need you kicked out of the army." Luz said grabbing Liebgott and leading him away.

Estee walked away and as she walked to the house she was staying in she met Speirs in the street. She walked up to him and put her hands on her hips. "We need to talk."

Speirs looked down at her but said nothing. So Estee spoke first. "Why were you going to keep Clay and Rod's injuries from me? Clay's my cousin. Out of all the girls not to tell. Why would you keep that from me?"

Speirs looked at her with no emotion in his face what so ever. "Why would I? They aren't your men. They are Dog men."

"He's my cousin!" Estee demanded.

Speirs leaned into her as if the streets were crowded and he didn't want any one else to hear. "Why haven't you told Maci or Diana?"

Estee opened her mouth to explain her reasons but fell silent. She wanted their minds on the war. Not worried about their exs.

"Exactly." Speirs replied as if he had read her mind. "Like you, I had my reasons. Know tell me this? Are you going to be able to fight this war with a clear mind. Or will it be back in Iowa worrying about your cousin?"

Speirs walked away and Estee bowed her head in shame. Speirs was right. Since she found out Clay had been injured, her mind had been back in Iowa. But she wasn't worried over Clay. She was worried about her parents. Was her dad keeping up with all the farm work as his farm hands were off fighting this war. Was her mother able to go on with the house work knowing her only child was playing war hero. She was worried about her other friends back home. Did some of the men join the war as well? Did they even realize she was gone? She was even worried about her dog Daisy. Was she still going to be there when she returned. For the first time since she joined Easy company Estee was realizing what kind of a toll she must be putting her loved ones through. She had to return home safely. No more risking her neck. No more heroics. She had to return. Return for her family.
