Falling for You

{Mina}
The next morning I woke up to my dad packing a few of my pajama's in a suitcase,

"Where are we going?" I asked sleepily,

"I'm not going anywhere,” He said folding the last of my bottoms , “ you're going to school,"

I sat up groggily, "That doesn't explain my bags…"

"Military school." I was fully awake then.

"What? no!"

"Don't argue with me, I've made my decision, now stop whining and get dressed," He said picking up my bag and heading for the door.

I obliged and got dressed, I followed him to a man who took me to my new school,

The first day went by so quickly, and the first night I wrote a letter to Bill,

Billa,

I assume you found out about what happened…well I just wanted you to know I already miss you and I can't stop thinking about the other night, I didn't expect my first kiss to be with you…not that I didn’t like it, it was just…well unexpected. Well I have to wrap this up before curfew so I guess I'll be waiting to hear from you….
Love your best friend .Mina

I put the letter in an envelope and snuck and put it in the mailing file and the snuck back into my room,

Having being woken up by trumpets is worse than I ever thought, I had to wake up and do drills, not much difference from home there, only there was no Bill, no Tom, Georg, or Gustav. I walked the grounds alone until ‘lunch’

"Hi!" A boy with blonde hair in the front and black in the back said cheerfully, he was taller than the other boy standing with him

"Hi," His shorter, yet equally as blonde friend added.

"I'm Strify," The taller one said sitting next to me.

"And this is my friend Kiro," He said pointing to the other boy,

They both were really hot, I mean lots of guys here were butch and thought their muscles made them amazing, but these two reminded me of….well Bill.

"Do you have a name?" Strify asked smiling genuinely.

I nodded,

"Can you talk?”

"Yes I can talk," I said with a small giggle,

"What your name then?"

"Mina,"

"Pretty name for a pretty girl," Strify said looking at Kiro,

I blushed a little and looked down at the gross looking, well I can’t even call it food, on my tray.

"So, Mina, how old are you?"Kiro asked in this really cute voice, but unexpectedly deep voice.

"15," I said softy,

"Cool, Strify here is 16 and I'm sadly only 15," He said overdramatically,

"So, how'd you end up here?" Strify asked handing me a piece of carefully concealed candy.

"Well…my dad…he's just stupid," I sighed accepting the sweets.

They both laughed,
"Hey wait a second," He said looking at my dog tags,

"Your a Mölle?"

"Yeah," I said looking down,

"God, your family is like a legend here ,

"You can't learn a tactic without hearing, 'the Mölle's perfected this', it's quite annoying," Kiro added resting his head onto his closed hand.

I laughed, "I have to live with those people imagine how I feel!"

They both laughed,

"So you two big war buffs?" I asked knowing they probably weren’t

"Hell no!" Kiro said,

"I'm just here because my parent's think I need more discipline,"

"And I'm only here because he's here," Strify said smiling, “I could never live without my best friend.”

"So you two have been friends long?"
"Yeah, since we were 6 and Kiro came over and kissed me on a dare."
“I just didn’t know he’d like it so much,” Kiro said nudging him, causing Strify to giggle girlishly.
"That’s so cute," I said forking my plate
"So, any of your friends here?"

I shook my head, "My friends are all back home, I think they're kinda the reason I'm here, see I kissed one of them and my dad saw,"

"Oh…" Strify said empathetically.

"Yeah, but it was only once and only for a second,"

"So you're one of those never been kissed girls," Kiro pointed out.

"I guess you could say that,"

"Well, keep hanging around us and that'll change real quick,"

After 'mess' we went out for training, although I was already ahead of ALL these kids I still had to do it, my name didn't make it any easier, every sergeant or Lieutenant said "Don't think that just because you're a Mölle we'll go easier on you,"

Their drills were easy but mine were harder because every little mistake I made I had to repeat the WHOLE COURSE,

That afternoon I was told I was being moved to another room because a ‘superior cadet’ needed a new room, so I was moved to the west wing,

I looked around for room 483, I opened the door nervously to see Kiro and Strify sitting on a bed,

"Hey guys…"

"You're my new roommate?" Kiro asked.

"Apparently,” I said dropping my bags onto the floor.

"This is going to be so fun," He said getting up and grabbing my bags,

"Have a seat on the bed, Strify and I were just kinda talking about you,"
I sat next to Strify

"They usually don't have co-ed rooms," I said taking a seat right next to Strify.

"Well, I requested your room so you wouldn't have to share a room with that asshole Jared,"

"Thank you so much! His snoring is unbearable!" I said hugging Strify with all the strength I had left.

"I know…I've had him before, so we're clear that you owe me,"

"Sounds fair enough, what do you want?"

"Hmm…I think a kiss is in order,"

I looked shocked, I mean I just met this guy,

"Well…you did save me from Jared…" I said.

Then I finally kissed him on the cheek,

"Uh…a little better than that," He said smiling,

I rolled my eyes and kissed him,

"Happy? "

"Well…for a never been kissed girl, I guess it will do."

"Oh la la…" I heard Kiro say.
"Who's the cutie," He said holding a picture of Bill,

"Oh, that's my friend Bill, he's the one I kissed,"

"Damn he's cute," Strify said snatching the picture,

I laughed and the two as they raved on and on about Bill,

"He's the cutest boy I've ever seen," Strify squealed.

"Am I not sitting here?" Kiro said dramatically,

"I said seen, not fucked!"

My eyes widened,

"Don’t worry, He’s kidding," Kiro said smiling.

I looked at the clock 9:30,

"I'm gonna change into my pajamas okay, so turn around,"

"No! I wanna see you naked," Kiro said pouting,,

I held up a shirt that I would put on, "I don't have anything to see,"

"Not on top at least," Strify said grabbing my butt

"Hey!"

He laughed and I pulled off my shirt, my black sports bra was covered with sweat but I couldn't really change it then,

Kiro pulled off his shirt and threw it in his bag,

He had a really nice body and I blushed a little,

"Well, I'll see you two later…try not to get raped," Strify said heading towards the door.

"What?" I said looking up,

"I was talking to Kiro,"

I laughed and looked at one of Bills t-shirts, my dad must've threw it in there by mistake,

I put it on and looked out the window almost crying, but then I felt two arms around me,

"You miss your friends…"

I nodded, I turned around and he hugged me,

"It'll be okay, think of it this way: I'm your friend now and I'm most likely not going anywhere,"

I smiled and hugged him tighter.
“Bill}

"Billa, you can't mope around until Mina comes back," Tom said trying to comfort me, in his big brother voice,
"I can and I will!" I said with my face buried in a pillow.
"Look we all miss Mina, but moping isn't gonna make her come home any faster."

"Well, I'm doing it anyway!"

He got up and left the room, I'd been sitting in bed all day and I wasn't' ready to do anything,

I looked at pictures of us, then some with us and her dad, she didn't look happy in any pictures with him

The next day I woke up and went down to breakfast.
“Billy…” My mom said as soon as I entered the room.
“What.” I can be a little mean when I’m upset.
“Well I was going to tell you that you have a letter, but since you’re upset-“
“A letter? From who?” I interrupted.
She smiled and looked at the letter, “Mina…”
I grabbed the letter from her hand and ran up to my room, I laid cross-legged on the bed and ripped the envelope open. I unfolded the paper and read.

Billa,

I assume you found out, well I just wanted you to know I already miss you and I can't stop thinking about the other night, I didn't expect my first kiss to be with you…Well I have to wrap this up before curfew so I guess I'll be waiting to hear from you….
Love your friend,
Mina

I folded the letter and put it in my keepsake box,

I wrote her another one back,

I went out with Tom and Georg to pick up girls, they told me that's what I needed so I went with them to the mall, dragging Gustav along.

"What about her?" Tom said pointing to a tall blonde haired girl

"No…" I said rolling my eyes

"Her?" Georg said pointing to some goth girl

"No! I don’t want a girl."

I walked off, this was not going to be fun.

{Mina}
After a whole day of combat training I was tired again. My brain was ready to give out.
“Hey Mina,” Kiro said jumping right next to me on the bed.
“Yeah,”
“You got a letter from that Bill kid.”
I snatched it away from him and read it immediately.
Mina,
My mom told me, I can’t believe he did that! I’m gonna miss you so much. That kiss…honestly I had been wanting to do that for a long time. Maybe when you get back we can do it more often, I can’t believe I just wrote that, but regardless- I want you to know I love you, you’re my best friend, and when you get back we’ll go from there.
Love, Bill

I folded the envelope and smiled with red cheeks,
“What’d he say?” Kiro asked smirking.
“Nothing, good night,”
I was happy, I mean Bill liked me right?

Two months had passed since I got that letter, I wrote Bill again, but he never wrote back. I was devastated, but Kiro had be there to comfort me. Actually, Kiro and I had been getting really close in that time. He had become one of my close friends and well….I actually liked him. Hey can you blame me?

Kiro and I were sitting on his bed talking when he started fiddling with my hands,

I liked Kiro a bit more than Strify because he was sweeter than Strify, now he could act just like Strify sometimes but other times they were complete opposites,

"Something wrong?" I asked when he dropped my hand.

"No," He said looking out the window,

"Yes there is…" I said kneeling behind him.

"Well, it's just that…"
He was quiet for a moment, "I like you Mina…"

"I know I like you too, that's why we're friends…" My hands rested on his shoulder.

"No, I like you…I like you like you,"

"Oh…" I said bringing my hand back.
"I know…I hope we can still be friends…if it isn’t like too weird."

"No, I don't think we can be friends anymore," I said sitting on the edge of the bed.
He looked so sad for a minute. “Why not?”

"’Cause I wanna be more than just your friend," I said with a small smile.

He smiled and I kissed him on the cheek.

We both stopped smiling, I moved a little closer and he sat behind me, with his arms around me we talked a little longer before lights out,

I smiled when we got the signal,"Night,"

"Night," He said and kissed me lighly on the lips, he obviously had had more experience than Bill because it wasn’t as wet or as shaky.

I smiled and went over to my bed. When I slept, I still dreamt of Bill.

{Bill}

"No you hang up first," My girlfriend Kristen said in that adorable voice she had.

"No you hang up first," I said smiling

We had been doing this for ten minutes now,

"For Christ's sake," Tom said taking my phone and hanging it up,

"Hey!" I said taking my phone back.

"You two give a new meaning to love sickness."

I stuck my tongue out and called Kristen back,

"Hello?"

"Why'd you hang up?"

"I didn’t, my annoying brother Tom hung up," I said looking over at him.

We talked all night and the next day at school,

"Can I talk to you for a second," Georg said pulling me away from Kristen before I had a chance to deny.

"What?" I said rather annoyed.

"You know you two are becoming a little too serious, I mean you spend every second with her, she's not a replacement for Mina you know,"

"She's not supposed to be,"

"What are you gonna do when Mina gets back? dump her?"

"Mina and I are just friends,"
"You and I both know you like her,"

"That being the case or not, she's not here so I can't be with her, besides Kristen's great, so just leave me alone!"

I walked off in a huff and found Kristen. I didn’t see any of the guys for the rest of the day
