Last Time on A Band of Heroes

Oh that's right Rory…YOU ARE UNDER WATER!

My mind was in a daze covered in a thick mist of confusion, pain and PMS.

So then I started my trek to where ever only to hear a distant giggle…

RPOV

Fucking Sobel…stupid C-47…I muttered to myself as I fought through the dense foliage. I could have sworn that I heard someone up ahead, so here I am cutting through the most inconvenient bushes I have ever encountered. Suddenly another high pitch giggled sound from my right this time much more clearly went through the air. I had no clue how long I had been walking but it felt like weeks to me and my stomach. Stomping through the bushes I felt anything but ladylike with my dress ripped up to my thigh and even then I had to hitch it up higher because it got caught easily to the little prickers that surrounded this particular area.

A low moan rose up to my ears only about ten steps away. Okay this is just getting ridiculous…I hope to god that I am not hearing things in my head! Marching over to a cluster of bushes I trampled through to find the source of the noise.

Shoving back the little curtain of twigs I felt my whole face turn red. As I peered back once more I found that the man that was attached to the women was no other but George Luz. Well this was not my plan of finding Easy Company…but hey it worked. I started to get really jittery at the fact that I was saved and completely forgot the state that the two lovebirds were in as I jumped from behind the green. Hmm that was kind of creepy just standing there…I felt a little like a pervert…oh who cares!

I let out a huge scream at Luz in utter joy, but not before doing a little victory dance that would surely look to an outside party the mark of a mad women. By that time I had gotten their attention because the woman suddenly gasped and fumbled to find her shirt to cover herself up. The woman was yelling and Luz being Luz thought this was because of him which only made the woman angrier.

When Luz finally realized that she was trying to tell him that some random woman was dancing around and jumping up and down practically right in front of them his eyes snapped up to mine. Um okay well this could be worse. I doubt he can even recognize me with all this dirt on my face…

Rising up Luz held the girl protectively but instead of trying to convey a fierce attitude I had looked lower down his body…and damn it could get worse. Not saying anything against him but this was seriously embarrassing to see one of your best friends *cough cough* if you know what I mean?

Good thing he came to his senses as he found his pants and slipped them on. I could not hold onto my excitement any longer as I leaped over to a very confused, angry Luz and hugged him; although he shoved me off. At first I was a little offended but then he probably still did not recognize me and to him I was just some random girl hugging him.

"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!?" Luz asked like he had been seriously disturbed.

"God dammit Luz it's me, Rory…you know the one nurse at Camp Toccoa, one of your best friends!?" I yelled slapping his arm in a playful manner.

"HOLY SHIT!"

"I KNOW!"

"WHAT THE FUCK RORY!?" he yelled before enveloping me into a huge hug although it was kind of awkward him being half naked as well as me. Out of the corner of my eye I saw the beautiful blonde huff before storming away. I also caught the look of longing that Luz portrayed as he watched her form disappear from his sight. He looked like an abandoned puppy!

I swung my head down in shame for not letting him have his moment with said blonde but something in my memory sparked and I recalled seeing her again. With a small smirk I said to Luz with a hand on his shoulder "If it's any constellation she had HIV…"

Luz's eyes widened but quickly he got on his goofy old grin and slapped me on the back of the head in a loving way before saying "what would I do without Rory Sobel". I smiled with contempt.

I think he also sensed that at the moment I was not in the mood for talking and did not ask any questions on how I got here…smart boy. He put a protecting arm around my shoulder as we headed back to where I assumed the makeshift base was. After a few minutes of awkward silence Luz chose his words very carefully.

"So what brings you here today, sunshine?" Luz asked.

"Oh you know…the sights" I said smirking in his direction referring to Luz's little encounter with the blonde girl.

"Uhuh, sure." He said before childishly sticking his tongue out at me.

And what a sight we must have been. Luz's hair was mused as well as mine. He only had pants on and I looked like I could work at a brothel with my stockings and lacy garter showing. After that we walked about a mile before I decided to pick up the conversation.

"So you like blonds; I never took you for a blonde guy." I stated teasingly.

"Oh shut up" He said bumping his hip into mine making me stumble but not before I grabbed hold of his arm and we both tumbled down out of surprise. It turns out we fell into a huge puddle/dirt pile and fell onto each other. Lying chest to chest I looked down at him and once both our eyes meet we burst out in hysterical laughing at our predigament.

I tried to get up but it was so slippery my head fell right into Luz's chiseled chest which made me laugh harder. We must have looked like drunken fools as we lay in this dirt pile, half naked and laughing like maniacs.

A loud cough interrupted our laughing fit as our eyes traveled up spit shinned shoes to meet the Colonel Sink and about seven of his men that were taking some type of tour. All conversation stopped as they looked upon us. Not knowing what else to do I gave him a salute in a serious face as did George. All Sink did was give us a slight nod and stalk off muttering to himself 'I am getting to old for this.'

Looking back at Luz made the fits start again at first giggles to blown out chuckles. But again we were stopped by the clearing on someone's throat and the oh to familiar comical voice question

"Rory is that you?"

…SHIT

Yay!! She found her way back!! Oh so I guess you all know who is talking to Rory at the end huh?

I thought this chapter was pretty funny when they were having that yelling conversation LOL

I am on a writing high at the moment so I should be starting my next chapter soon!
