[quote][b]Dominic (Aug 09, 2001 12:00 p.m.):[/b] It had been a long day. In actuality, [i]every[/i] day had been a long once since he and Donovan had arrived at the International Fleet's central command post just a week earlier. Their time at the Creche Keep had been relatively short; five weeks, just enough time for the doctors to ensure that they were fit for duty, and to give them a little retraining course; and then they were shipped off again. Dominic was pleased with their placement, however, and willingly adjusted to the new routine. After all-- as long as Donovan was with him, he could have gone anywhere and been happy. But he [i]wasn't[/i] entirely content, and the source of his unease had a name. [i]Rox...[/i] Six weeks now had passed since he and Donovan had been taken from Command School. Six weeks now had passed since he'd last seen Rox, and since his twin had last seen Dante. Their training hadn't prepared them to fall in love, but it helped to hide their grief, if only superficially. Donovan had grown detached from everyone far more than Dominic had expected, and as for himself, he found that he was slightly more perturbed than he should have been. So although his brother didn't seem to miss Dante, and he missed Rox more than he could be comfortable admitting, it was an undeniable fact that things were just not the same. He sighed and entered the quarters that he and Donovan shared, not at all surprised to find the room empty. Communication between them had been strained for the past few days, but Dominic was almost too tired to care. If there was a serious problem, his twin would tell him. If not, then he would not be the one to ask. The message light on his desk was blinking furiously, but he ignored it until he was undressed and ready for sleep. Only then did he pick up the desk and settle into his bed, logging onto the mail system and opening the letter he had received. Expecting a routine notice or note from another soldier, he was completely unprepared for the signature at the end of the long missive. Indigo eyes widened, a shocked smile beginning to move the corners of his lips, and Dominic laughed with delight. The writing was random, fractured and horrendously misspelled and unpunctuated, and his grin broadened as he read. [i]dear dommy-- it took me forever to find you the creche keep security didnt want to tell me where you went and neether did the if maneframe but last nite sumone i no said they saw you at the comand post and i manedged to get in. itll be ez to send mail now so you have no excuse to avoid me. i miss you sweets i wasnt sure if id ever find where you and donovan went. i hope you two are doing ok. things have finaly settled down here there was a fucking huge uproar after you got taken away cause of the fite and all. we all got questuned but no one talked so i guess they gave up or sumthing and its not like any of us realy new what was going on anyway but oh well. busness has been slo cause they titened security up evrywhere and i cant get in too mutch trubble cause i greaduate soon so ive been good. the old hedmaster is back we herd that sumone arested that ia guy who burned rabin but no one realy nos for sure. nicolai tryed to mack on dante after donovan left but then she hit him and swede and mik beat him up realy bad and so he doesnt talk to us anymor but it was funny and evryone made fun of him for weeks and lem gave him so many demerets. speeking of dante how is donovan. dont tell him im asking cause dante doesnt no im writting to you. she realy freeked after he left but now shes all quite and icy and she doesnt realy talk to anyone but me wich doesnt say mutch cause you cant realy call it talking but im worreed even tho she says shes fine. all she does is work and shes like wen nathan and her fot at battleschool. i dont no what to do but i culd give her a letter if donovan wants just let me no. you can tell him that theres been talk shell transfur to comand ait in a few months alredy wich is a hole year early and sumone even said wen lem and i greaduate in less than a year the administrashun mite give her pheenix. wouldnt that be awsum maybee sumday well be at the post togethr then you can make up for beeng gone and shell be nice agin. i no she misses you two even tho she doesnt say so. oh gosh lots more is going on here but i want to no how you are doing so pleese rite back. hey i fourgot but there was sumthing i need to tell you. if you or don ever need anything like contraband or a hack or you no who i hang out with so anything ilegal basicly then theres sumone there you can talk to at the post. his name is mark mcavrey and hes a lootenant in the sistems tecnishin divison there and he alredy nos who you are so ask him and he can get you stuf ok. avreys the one who found you two for me so dont worry hes safe. ill make him keep an eye on you so you dont go out with other gurls. i miss you lots and lots and wen landry finishs this camra hes bulding for me i can send you picturs. remembr to talk to avrey if you need anything and dont worry bout the cost cause he takes it frum my acounts. dont do anything i wouldnt do wich i no isnts mutch but stay out of trubble and tell donovan hi for me. rite me soon or else. xoxo aichaku xoxo roxy[/i] There was no doubt the letter was genuine, and he laughed again as he pictured her writing it. Those chocolate eyes narrowed as she typed furiously, her half-smile when she had to bite her tongue to concentrate... he should have known she would have found a way to contact him. Now he never had to worry, because he could always reach her; if he couldn't have her beside him, then this was the next best thing. Dominic ran a hand through his spiked hair, midnight eyes sparkling, and was still laughing softly to himself when the door to his room opened and Donovan entered. There was nothing he could do to hide the amusement and affection and slight tinge of guilt in his gaze, and his brother's silent question remained unanswered for a long moment as he debated whether or not to show him the letter. [i]If he got a letter from Dante about Rox, I'd expect him to show me. How can I refuse him the same? I know he misses her, even if he doesn't show it. I have to let him see this.[/i] "Rox got a letter through, bro. Would... would you care to read?" Now it was Donovan's choice. Dominic smiled a little insecurely and held the desk out toward his twin, offering it with veiled reluctance and a bit of concern.[/quote]
