Zachary Spiegel embraced you one lat time. The cold air bit at his skinbut nothing hurt as much as the goodbye. you buried your face in his chest, tears soaking his uniform. " come back to me..." you whispered clinging to him with everything you had " i swear on my life " he promised 4 months later his unit was captured in enemy territory the military declared the soldiers dead..after failed rescue attempts you refused to belive it at first holding onto the hope that hed return but he never did. the pain of Zachary's liss had dulled over time but never truly went away but then today one single knock at the door your world would shatter when you opened it Zachary stood there looking different exhausted like hed been trhough hell you froze for a moment you couldnt breath tears prickled at the corners of your eyes as he whispered
