My Navy Seal II: Undeniable Attraction

KIM

I am busy with my last surgery when Nita comes walking in and telling me that Nick is waiting outside for me. I have never closed up a patient so fast in my life as I am doing right now. It is as if the thought of seeing him has given me new energy. As soon as I am finished I tell the nurse to and bandage him up and then I take off my gloves.

I open the curtain that separates us from the rest of the patients and then I see him standing there. The sun is about to go down and the color of the sky is almost a red color. He is standing at the entrance and starting at the camp.

His silhouette is perfectly shaped. It is as if he is calling me with his perfect body. I can see the muscles in his arms bulging while his hands are resting on his hips. For a split second, I can not believe that this is the man that I am going to marry. I get to wake up next to that every day.

I walk as fast as I can and then I put my arms around his waist from his back. I rest my head on his muscled back and I take a deep breath just taking in his scent.

NICK

I am patiently waiting for Kim to finish her surgery. I will wait for her even if it takes an eternity but I know that I am not going to sleep unless she is next to me. Then suddenly, I feel her soft perfect hands embracing me from the back. I feel her head resting on my back and I know that she belongs with me.

I quickly put my hands on her hands and then I turn myself around in her embrace.

"Fuck...it is so good to see you"

I do not care who sees me as I give her a kiss. I feel her soft lips between mine and I know this is where they belong. She looks up at me with that smile that I missed so much and she says.

"I am so happy that you are safe"

"You must know that I won't leave you alone if I can help it"

I watch a she smiles and gives me another kiss. Then I put my hands around her waist and say.

"Are you ready to get out of here?"

"I thought you would never ask"

I take her hand and we start to walk to our tent. I have placed our tent a bit away from the other tents as I want some privacy with her.

"I hope you do not mind but I got only one tent for us"

KIM

I can almost see insecurity in his eyes as he says that he only got one tent for us. It is as if he needs my approval before he does something like that. But what he does not know is that there is no way that I am leaving his arms ever again. I look up at him and say.

"Nick, I am not sleeping alone on this deployment. I need to be in your arms for as long as you will have me"

I can see how he smiles in appreciation of my words. Then we get to the tent and I feel my body almost giving in of pure tiredness. I fall down on the sleeping bag and I realized that I am falling on the ground and not a soft bed but I really do not care because I am too tired to.

It is not long after I fell on the ground that Nick falls right next to me. He lies on his back and then he opens his arm for me to rest my head on his chest. I feel his arm envelops my being and keeping me safe. This is how I will be sleeping this entire deployment. Just being safe in his arms. Then I hear his deep voice rumbling through his chest.

"God...it feels so good to have you in my arms"

"I know exactly what you are talking about"

It is not even a few minutes and we both fall asleep. We have had a tiring day and tomorrow will bring even more work for us. It feels like we have slept for only an hour as I wake up with the sun in my eyes.

I feel my head laying on something soft and I know that I am not in Nick's arms anymore. I quickly open my eyes and let them focus, I do not see him anywhere. This is definitely not the way that I wanted to wake up. I quickly stand up and bewildered walk out of the tent but then I see Nick walking towards the tent with something indescribable wonderful in his hands.

"How did you know?"

He hands me a warm cup of coffee and then he says.

"I know by now that you need your coffee in the morning and I want you to know that I will bring you one every morning"

"You are a wonderful man"

We go back into the tent and we sit on the floor. I take a sip of this precious coffee and then I find a way to focus again.

"What time is it?"

"It is almost six"

Then I look at Nick and I realized that his hair is combed and he is dressed and ready for the day. I gesture with my hand to his body from the bottom to the top.

"When did all this happen? How is it possible that you can just look like this?!"

He starts to laugh and I love that smile of his. Then he says.

"Well, while you were sleeping. I was already up and ready to go. You must know that a Navy Seal never sleeps"

Then all of a sudden it hits me where we are. We are in the middle of nowhere and we came to save the base. But not just that. As far as I know, we are here to eliminate the enemy and that must mean that Nick will be leaving today.

"Are you going out today?"

Suddenly the smile on his face turns to sadness and he avoids my eye contact. He looks at the ground and then he says.

"Yeah. We need to see it with who we are dealing with"

"So, that means that you might not be back tonight?"

"Yeah..."

Then he looks me straight in the eyes and I can see that he is studying my expression. I know that this must be very difficult for him as he never had someone that waited for him. I try to look as confident and certain as possible.

"I get it. I know you need to do this"

Then he moves to sit next to me and hold me around my waist. I can see that he is very serious about what he is going to say.

"But you know that I do not want to leave you? You must know that?"

I put my coffee down and then I turn to hold him around his waist. I put my head against his chest and I say.

"I know that you do not want to but I know that you have to and if you doing this is going to keep us safe, then I guess you have to"

Then I feel him laying his cheek on my head and sadly say.

"But I do not want to..."

I look up at his face and I can see that this is very hard for him. I know that there are no words to comfort him and there is nothing that I can do about it. So, I do the next best thing. I lift my head up and press my lips against his. I need him to feel what I feel.

I need him to know that I love him more than life itself and that when he goes that a part of me goes with him. I will never really be whole again until he returns.

"I love you, Nick Roberts"

He gives me his cocky smile and then he says.

"I love you more, Kim McPherson my future wife to be"

Then I hear John outside the tent.

"Master Chief, sir"

Then I hear Nick softly curse in my ear.

"Fuck"

He takes a deep breath and then says

"I am coming"

He put his hands on his face and rubs it as if he wants to focus again and get the thoughts out of his mind. He turns to me and says.

"I got to go now"

"I know. Just promise me you will be back"

I see the sadness in his eyes again and then he says as he standing up.

"You know I can not promise you that but I can promise you that I will love you forever"

Then he turns around and walks out of the tent. I fell back down on the ground and I just stare at the ceiling of the tent. I realized that this is going to be very hard.. It is probably going to be close to impossible to say goodbye to Nick every time that he leaves and every time I do not know if he is going to come back again.
