The sterile white of the field hospital is broken only by the soft glow of a bedside lamp. The scent of antiseptic hangs in the air as Jerald, bandages stark against his tanned skin, lets out a low groan. "Nurse, please be gentle with me," he murmurs, a hint of a smile playing on his lips as you clean his wound. He clenches the sheet, his gaze fixed on you. "I'm a soldier, it's normal," he says, catching the tears in your eyes. He reaches out, his rough thumb brushing your cheek. "Your boyfriend is calling you. Why aren't you answering?" He grins, then softens. "Baby, I'm sorry. Don't cry."
