Soldier's Story: Chapter 4

My heart races again because my guy could be anywhere on base; he is alone and I need to be by his side. I search my thoughts and can’t think of anywhere he might be; then it clicks the one place that he can be. I run across the base to where our practice range is; I took Adrian there once to shoot some guns when he was having a bad day. Adrian loved it and I remember him telling me that this is a good place to shoot of some steam…literarily. As I am getting closer I can hear some gun been shot and I know that’s Adrian. As I get closer I see a group of twenty soldiers behind the person who is shooting.

I stand behind all of them trying to catch my breath and about teen feet away I see Adrian who is shooting some guns. I take another breath of relief but then my heart breaks as I see that Adrian is in pain. Jose stands right next to Adrian “Out of thirty bullets…twenty five of them hit the target how bad ass am I?” Adrian says to Jose as if nothing is wrong. “Adrian…” Jose begins to say. “I’ am coping okay…this is how I cope” Adrian says with a shaky voice. I turn my back for a second because I just couldn’t see Adrian like this. Adrian is the best thing that has ever happen to me in my miserable life and I can’t stand to see him like this. I won’t let Adrian break; I couldn’t believe that I was on the edge of crying and one tear ran down my cheek. I quickly wiped it away and took a deep breath; I turned around and walk straight for Adrian. “Adrian” I say in a low voice; I can see that he heard me but he paid no attention to me.

I stand by his side “Adrian” I say almost in a whisper; “Give me the gun” I say while placing my hand on his. “Adrian give me the gun” I say again but Adrian doesn’t move or hand me the gun. I then place my hand on the back of his neck and I can hear that his breathing is becoming more uneven. “Adrian….Alan is your brother and he is my best friend…” I begin to say as softly as I can “And if this is his time to go then we should be there to say good bye to him” I say as Adrian starts to lose his grip from the gun. “Come with me Adrian…let’s go say good bye to Alan…together” I say as I take the gun away from him. My hand is still on the back of his neck but I don’t move until he moves, Adrian stands still for a while. After a couple of deep breaths Adrian turns and walks back to the hospital; I walk beside him in silent. We walk slowly but eventually we get to the hospital; everyone is still here; Jennifer stands up but I shake my head.

Adrian sits down I am on his left and Jennifer is on his right; I then look at everyone. Everyone continues talking to each other as if nothing had happen; my hand is still on the back of this neck. I then rub the back of this neck I know for a fact that the neck is Adrian’s biggest weakness. I rub his neck with my fingers and about a minute later I feel Adrian relax and he sits back on the seat.

Dr. Collins

I watch as Adrian and Jennifer leave my OR I then take a deep breath and walk in. there have been only a few moments in my career when I have been nervous but in this situation goes beyond anything. As a surgeon I have to leave every emotion behind because a life is at stake. What separates any surgery from this is that this is Alan the brother of my son. For a couple of months now I have been calling Adrian my son but only in my head. Adrian and Jennifer are the son and daughter I never had and I wished I had. Their love for medicine and their hunger for it reminds me of myself when I first started out as a surgeon.

I stand next to Alan “No tricks Davis” I say to Alan as I grab the scalpel and cut into his chest. I work around his chest trying to find the bullet before he bleeds out; I search and search but the bullet seems to be stuck near his heart. I take the bullet our slowly but every time I move it just a bit the bleeding starts and it’s hard to control. Never in my twenty years of been a surgeon have I sweated but I guess there is a first time for everything. I take another deep breath and push my feelings aside for yet another hour. “Dr. Collins your plane leaves in thirty minutes and…” a nurse comes into my OR saying. “Did you get me another flight out of here later on the day” I say while not taking my eyes off of the bullet. “Sir there isn’t another plane until tomorrow morning” the nurse says. “Then book it for tomorrow” I say almost screaming at her. “Dr. Collins you told me that under no circumstances you would miss this flig…” the nurse says but I cut in saying that “The circumstances have changed…like hell I am going to tell my son that I did everything I could to save his brother” I say while working a bit faster. I couldn’t believe I just said that; I publicly announced that Adrian was my son. I look around rather quickly and saw the nurses giving glances at each other.

The nurse in the door way is looking at me shocked but then looks down. “Sir” she says almost in a whisper. “Look I have been married for twenty three years and my wife was not able to get pregnant…we tried almost everything but nothing work….and now that I found a person who I wished was my son more than anything in the world” I say but pause for a minute and look up at the nurse. “I am not losing him…and I know that Davis here means the world to my son…..I am not losing him” I say almost on the verge of crying. The nurse looks at me for a while “I’ll get you a seat for tomorrow sir….you can count on me” she says with a soft voice then heads out. I then look around one more time and see that most of the nurses understood where I was coming from. I felt a huge weight off of my shoulders and I take another deep breath.

But my relief is short lived when Davis chest suddenly squirts out a good amount of blood. The machine is beeping faster and faster telling me that his heart is beating abnormally. I work faster trying to clog the blood that is escaping Davis’s body; the machine still beeping. Suddenly the machine stops beeping and I look up to see a flat line running across the screen. I grab the two sticks and place them on both sides of Davis’s heart; “Clear” I say and then a thump. Davis’s body jerks a little but the line is still flat; “Clear” I say again but the line keeps flat. I look into the screen hoping for a miracle but nothing happens the line is still flat; “Don’t do this to me Davis” I say to him “CLEAR” ……thump.

Adrian

I take a breath in and let it out; I take another deep breath in and let it out. I feel more at ease; I have my hands in between my knees, Jennifer has her hand on my forearm and Mark has his hand behind my neck his thumb is lightly going from side to side. “I ummm…” I begin to say as everyone turns and looks at me “I know that some of you have to get on a plane in a couple of minutes…go home guys….and thanks for your support” I say while standing up. About thirty soldiers got up and shook my hand; all of them bid me good luck and left. Some even wanted to stay with me until I heard news of Alan but I made them get on the plane; I didn’t want them to use me as an excuse not to go home to their families. As I shook the final soldier’s hand I see in the distance Dr. Collins walking towards me; he’s kind of far away that I can’t read his expression.

All I could do is stand still my breathing becoming more uneven; the rest of the soldiers that were there turned and looked at Dr. Collins as he is walking towards me. You could have heard a pin drop that’s how quiet it was; Dr. Collins has a blank expression on his face. I was on the verge of crying but I had to know; I had to hear it from Dr. Collins that my brother is dead. Dr. Collins stands in front of me and just looks at me; we stay looking at each other for a while. Dr. Collins then smiles at me and nods his head. Everyone jumps up for joy, laugh, cry and start hugging each other; I on the other hand have tears rolling down my cheeks. I then smile and give Dr. Collins a hug “You can see him tomorrow we have to keep a close eye on him for now” Dr. Collins tells me in my ear. As Dr. Collins walks away I turn to Jennifer who is jumping for joy I look at her with a strange look. “What?” she says smiling at me.

I then look at Mark his dark blue eyes lock on mine; “Let’s get out of here” Mark whispers in my ear. As each soldier went on their separate ways the sun was setting and a day of turmoil has finally ended. I then open the door to my room and Mark follows behind me; I jump on the bed and lay there on my back with my eyes closed. Mark gets on top of me; he hugs me and places his head on my chest. Mark holds me for what seemed like hours but that didn’t matter I was here with him and Alan is alive. “You know I still need to take a shower right?” I say to Mark. Mark just looks up at me and smiles “Well then let’s go” Mark says as he quickly gets up and lifts me up over his shoulders.

Mark

I don’t know why but I always feel like a kid again when I am around Adrian. I then gently get him off of my shoulder; I just love the way he laughed. I wanted to hear his laugh again and so I press my lips against his neck and mumble. He always laughs when I do that and it gives me an excuse to touch him; I then push him to the counter where the sink is. I place my hands on the counter trapping him so he can’t escape my mumbling. Adrian laughs and says my name a couple of times; I then stop and kiss his neck. I hear him moan in pleasure and that turns me on more than anything; I then pull away and look into his eyes. If ever I had a doubt about our relationship his eyes would snatch it right out; I then press my lips against his. The mixture of butterflies in my stomach and excitement mixed into one just like the first time I kissed him. I then feel him undoing my pants and my dick gets hard instantly; he pulls my pants down and kneels at the same time.

I then feel his tongue playing around my dick and a couple of moans escape my mouth. I then feel his mouth around my cock and I place both hands behind his head pushing it in further. Adrian takes my whole dick in his mouth and throat he then plays with my balls and I moan louder. I then take off my shirt and as soon as I do Adrian gets up and starts playing with my nipples. I moan again in pleasure and tilt my head back enjoying everything he does to me; then I press my lips against his and I quickly take off his shirt. He puts his arms around me and presses harder against my lips and into my body. I then turn him around and pull down his pants along with his underwear I kiss his butt cheeks and stick my tongue into his hole. He screams in pleasure as I do this; I love losing him up with my tongue. I then get up and kiss the back of his neck; I spit on my dick to lube it up and place it outside his hole.

I push forward and my dick enters him; he tenses up for a moment but then relaxes to the point that my dick slides in. I love his hole it’s always nice and tight almost as if it was made for my dick. I push and pull out slowly so both of us can enjoy the emotions that follow; I love making him moan especially when I kiss his neck. I don’t fuck him I make love to him because he is my one and all; I treat him like he is mine to have forever. “Fuck me” I hear Adrian whisper to me. I take out my dick and place him on top of the counter; we kiss like there is no tomorrow. Both of our breathing becomes uneven but that isn’t an excuse for us to stop kissing. I then force my dick up his ass and for some reason his hole feels tighter. I then start fucking him with deep hard thrust. Adrian moans in pleasure and would sometimes pull my hair; I know what he is trying to say and as he pulls my hair harder I fuck him harder. Both of us are out breath, sweat covering our bodies, and moaning in pleasure. I then feel hot liquid on my abs and chest; Adrian moans and relaxes a bit but still pulls my hair. I then try to tell Adrian that I am close but before I could say anything I shoot my load deep inside Adrian.

I moan out loud but not once did we break our kiss; I then put my forehead on his and we both try to catch out breaths. I then unwrap Adrian’s legs from me and go turn on the water. I quickly run back to him and lift him up; his legs are once again wrapped around my waist and my arms are wrapped around his back. We step into the shower and the water is just right; as both of us clean each other off I can’t help but press my lips against his. We both make out in the shower for a while until I turn the water off; I then get one towel and use that to dry Adrian off. Adrian gets another towel and dries me off; naturally our lips meet. I then lift him up and place him gently on the bed; we make out for another ten minutes. I then get on top of him and place my forehead on the side of his head. “Good night” I say into his ear. “Good night” he says back while he plants a gentle kiss on my lips.

Adrian

I can’t believe I am saying this but Mark is mine; Mark is my one and true love. I have been waiting for him almost my entire life. I know Mark is the one for me because I have a feeling that I have never had in my past relationships. It’s hard to describe in words but I it’s there; the feeling of happiness, love, joy, and many others all wrapped into one. Mark wraps his big arms around me and falls asleep on top of me; I then stroke his hair gently. I take a couple of deep breaths and fall asleep with a huge smile on my face. The next morning Mark and I visit Alan for the first time since he got out of surgery; Jennifer was already there by his side. “Good Morning” I say quietly, Alan then opens his eyes.

I sit next to him and grab his hand; a wave of relief goes through my body as I hold Alan’s hand. I then start to cry; the tears are of joy. “I don’t know what I would have done” I say to Alan as he is looking at me. “You are one of the most important person in my life” I say as the tears are still running down my cheek. Alan then sheds a tear for me and pulls me closer to him. We hug each other as if we finally have accepted each other as brothers; Mark and Jennifer leave the room and close the door. Tears are coming down my face and for the first time since I got here I feel at ease.

How stupid of me to think that nothing else could go wrong from here on out. Nothing can bring me down…boy how wrong was I to think that. I guess I thought of that because I didn’t know what was to come.

Chapter 5 coming soon….
