I wake up with a jolt. I look around the bunk room and notice it empty. Wiping the sleep out of my eyes, I grab my camera and head outside in search of everyone. I find them playing volleyball sans shirts. With a shake of my head, I grab a quick picture for Katie, Amber, and Avery. They do it more than you would think, I asked them why once and they said something about it feeling like home. All I know is that the girls love it, and if they knew I didn’t take a picture, they would have my ass.

I watch them for a few minutes, using the training they’ve all been through to make the game look more like a choreographed dance. Most of us have been together long enough now to anticipate everyone’s next move. Cowboy finally notices me standing here, camera in hand, when they all stop to take a water break.

“Hey LT, what’s up, man?” Cowboy asks when he sees me.

“Just taking some pictures for the girls. I figured since it was Newb’s first deployment and we won’t be together forever we could take some pictures.”

Hard-On and Cowboy exchange a look before crossing their arms over their chests. “Bullshit,” they say in unison.

“Fine, don’t send pictures home to the girls. I’m sure they wouldn’t want some anyway. I took pictures of you guys playing volleyball. I won’t get into trouble.” I shrug my shoulders and walk back toward the bunkhouse.

“Well, hang on a minute,” Hard-On calls out. Got him.

Setting down my camera, I reach behind my head to pull my T-shirt. When I look back at the guys, they’re all looking at me weird.

“What?”

“She’s more than just a pen pal, huh?” Hard-On asks.

“What are you talking about?”

“You come out here to suggest we take a picture, feigning to help us, then take your shirt off for said picture without us ragging on you. There’s someone you’re trying to impress.” Arms once again crossed, Cowboy and Brass chuckling because they know they got me.

“Shut up.”

Grabbing a passing soldier, we group together; some with arms crossed, some with an arm slung over a shoulder, but it’s all of us. We take some together and separate, I even take the time to play a game of volleyball. Now, these are some real pictures I can send to Becca and Olivia.
