He's smiling at me from across the table, while half listening to lucy. The sunlight is reflecting of his glossy chestnut colour hair. Now he's laughing at something she said, but I was so wrapped up in him that I wasn't listening. 'what do you think, Abby?' Lucy asked. 'umm, that sounds great' I replied, not knowing what I had just agreed to. "ok, I'll tell her that we volunteer to go out on a raid tonight" she said excitedly. Lucy (my best friend) James, Adam (the object of my affection) and I all work in the army, as part of a team that goes out and rescues civilians. "that's great" I replied a little too sarcastically and I was shot a odd look from Lucy. Every time we go out on a raid is another chance that one of us could be wounded or worse. Every raid is another chance I might lose him.
