"Candy?" A heavy weight was brought down onto my back. And that damn familiar voice stung my ears. A lime green squirrel, with candy all over him, and a lazy eye. Nutty was his name. He always bothers me about candy or if I have candy. And he'll blackmail me if I don't give him candy. I'm serious thinking about putting him in a looney bin. "Your posture fuckin sucks. You walk like someone broke your spine." "What do you want, Nutty?" The squirrel was still on my back. His hands grip onto my shoulder to stay on.
"Candy." With that, he snatches the dogtags from my hands. "Nutty! Give it back! It's not candy!" He yell at him. Trying to get him from behind my back. He was like a roach crawling all on my body. He was fast too. I finally yanked his tail. I knew this because I heard a curse under his breath.
Lifting him up in the air and glared. Bearing my canines in a threatening manner.... Usually this would scare anyone. But Nutty is his own breed unfortunately. All he did was stare back at me....well one of his eyes did. He shoved the dogtags in his mouth....and swallowed it.

"!!!!" Oh fuck. I began to shake him upside down. Trying to make him throw up or spit them out. I knew he was an idiot but NOT this much! He wouldn't budge. I realized that I'll have to use a different method. I grabbed his throat. Rolled up my sleeves and was about to shove my arm down his throat to fish it out. To which he freaked.
"Wait wait!!! It'll come out!... Eventually! Geez, pay me dinner first if you wanna stick something big down my throat." "You are the pain of my existence." I didn't let go of him. Instead ....I cuffed his wrist and mine together. Throwing him off. "...Hey I ain't that type of hoe. You better pay me first. And if your gonna pull my tail at least call me pretty." He joked but sounded so serious. I wanted to die.

[Flippy's POV]

"I hope you enjoy your book. Bye." I smile at the person in front of me and bid them goodbye. Dropping the smile once they were gone. Sighing sadly.... I really wanted to spend more time with her. Officer. She's always busy and hardly sees me ...I wished she'd visit me at work ... Or sweep me off my feet from work like a beautiful Dame Knight... I was currently reading a sweet romance story of two Knights that fallen in love. The Dane saving the Sir and him saving her... It's so romantic~ I wonder if she reads romance books? I wonder if she likes to read! That way we can always see each other... We can talk about books and our future together. Maybe one day she'll marry me~

I was so caught up in my train of thought. It's like I was in my own world. I kept trying to remember thought of me and her way before then. When we were younger ... I remembered her teaching me the ropes ... And how to be a good solider....And the day she-

"The day when she took that bullet in the face for your pathetic sorry ass."

My once beautiful daydream turned into my worse nightmare. I was suddenly back on the field... Gun shots and grenades thrown left and right. Heavy rain poured down and the pitch black night made it impossible to see. The shine of the front part of the gun was the only thing visible to me. Like a deer in headlights I froze.

"CADET! MOVE!"

A strong impact pushed me out of the way in time. My head knocking on something hard. Causing my vision to be blurry and my ears ringing. The flash of the gun going off was the only light source I had. Allowing me to see who shot the gun. Unfortunately, they were head to toe covered in military gear. I couldn't even identify the solider. My body kept crashing over and over. I wanted to keep my head up. But the last thing I saw was her expressionless face and a bullet wound in her eye. Her skin already covered in so much blood and maggots chewing their way through her face.

"AHHHH!!" I scream out. Gripping onto the book I was previously holding. A few people who were in the library noticed my outburst. Some had faces of concern while others looked at me as if I was mental. Second hand embarrassment I felt. I slowly lowered my self behind my desk. Trying to hide myself. Hugging my knees to my chest.

"I'm sure she doesn't hate you...it's not like she saved your life and risked her own life. And yet you can't hold a decent conversation... Your pathetic solider. She needs a real man. A real animal to be by her side..."

"Your wrong... Shut up. You barley know her. You know nothing about her. She would hate you! ....she would hate us if she found out."

"We can fix that ...Your terrible with your words. Let me take over ....I'll make sure she remembers how to scream our name properly-"

"Quiet!! Don't talk to her like that! I wouldn't - she-"

"Flippy."

"Shut up! Don't talk dirty about her!"

"Philip!"

"I'm not listening! I don't want to hear it-"

"FLIPPY!"

I slam my head underneath my table. Making me groan and whimper. Holding my head and seeing a few pencils and paper fly off my desk. I was still at work. This day couldn't get any worse...
I lifted my body up of off the floor. Holding a pencil to make it seem like I was under there looking for it.

"I'm sorry to make you wait. What can I do for-" "Sup Flips." Nutty was practically sitting on his desk. He had handcuffs on one hand and the other end was attached to "O-Officer!" I grip onto my sweater where my heart was. Trying to calm the beating down. Officer was also cuffed to him. She didn't look the most pleased but kinda embarrassed.
"Sorry to bother. I need some help. I have a little problem-" "Say no more!!" Not letting her finish her sentence. I jump over my desk and take out a dagger. Nutty just stares at my knife. Completely unbaffled by the site. Officer on the other hand. Freaked. Quickly grabbed my arm. Her chest pressed up against my back. Chills....was all I could describe. My face went from green to red. Resisting the urge to just hug her tightly.
"No, the cuffs aren't the problem. I did that so this gremlin-" "Flirt." "-doesn't run away. Because he decided to eat something he wasn't supposed too."

She always looked like a goddess when she was upset. It can scare through the hearts of anyone. I'd like to see it when she's fighting me. I want to see if she still has that kick I love so much. She better not disappoint. Shaking the thoughts of my head. I ask her what exactly he had eaten. Knowing Nutty he'll eat whatever he wants. She sighed and rubbed the back of her neck.
"After you had left. I left a bit after.... I noticed that your dogtags had made their way to the ground.... Nutty noticed me picking them up. Thought they were candy. Wouldn't get off of me. Then swallowed it."

"........Oh."
