War AU

--------------------

"Hey dude, you ready?" Nick glanced at Cory who shrugged and smiled softly, "You say it like we're hanging out." Cory said softly. "We are, we'll be back, so it kind of is Cor." Nick used the annoying nickname he hated, but allowed it.

"Nick, what if we don't come back?" "Then now would be a good time to tell Bri you love her." Nick said simply, "You're just accepting death, just like that?" Cory stood. "I don't have a lady waiting for me, not like Jon, not like Tommy, or you." Nick stated sadly and looked down, "But Cory, you do, go tell her you love her. We're leaving soon, but if you run you can make it. You can't just leave her like that without saying something. You're going into war and you can't even gather the courage to tell a girl you like her?" Nick scoffed lightly.

"Kinda dumb when you think about it, isn't it?" Cory adjusted his helmet. "Go on," Nick looked up. "Go tell her." Nick stared at him, "Go on you idiot! This truck isn't staying here forever!" Nick shoved him off, but Cory was pushed back on. "Like you said Nicholas, this truck isn't staying forever." Uni climbed in as the truck burst into life, "Wait, Uni, please, there's a girl--" 

"You had your chance Crater," Uni snapped while watching a girl wave at him. "Mousie? You didn't tell her?" Cory asked ((I picked someone random ok okay)), Uni shook his head sadly while breaking eye contact with her. Tommy, Jon, Dawn all clambering in the back with them. "Ashlie said she'd wait for me," Jon was smiling goofily. "Shelby did too." Tommy added, "I bet she's crying like an idiot." Tommy forced a laugh and wiped a small tear away. 

"What're you doing, Cory?" Dawn looked over his shoulder. "I'm writing Bri a letter if I can't get back to her." Cory sadly stated, "May I write one after?" Uni asked. "Yeah," Cory smiled and continued his letter;

Dear Bri,

Hey! I'm... scared, writing this, I think, I don't know my emotions at this point. But! When the truck took off, Nick told me to do something, that I just... I hesitated for so long, I missed my chance. I missed my chance to tell you in words, physically, standing in front of you, to tell you I love you. I said it! I love you, Bri. I realized it when we were at that stupid party, where you went off at me, you were mad at me for drinking the day before I had training. You cared about my safety more then anyone else, you made sure I didn't walk here alone and the last thing I told you was I appreciated you walking me here like an idiot I am. I'm so sorry I couldn't make it back, I'm sorry I was scared.

But Dear Lovely,

I care about you from the bottom of my heart, I love you and I couldn't be more lucky to have you as one of my best friends, and the person I love. I wish, I wish, I wish I could say this to you in person. You're my motivation, okay? You're going to keep me going through this, and I'm going to tell you right now.

If Nick doesn't deliver this letter to you, I will haunt him forever, because Nick is going back for sure, he's our best bet at winning this, and he's going to be a major part of us winning.

We won, right?

Hopefully.

Dear Lovely,

I love you.

-Cory Crater.

"To the helicopter!" Nick announced, Cory shut the journal and handed it to Uni. 

"Nick, do me a favor." Cory tilted his head at Nick who hummed in response.

"If I don't make it, deliver it for me." Cory said, Nick nodded. "I promise."

://: Four Months Later ://:

Shelby waited patiently with food, drinks, and a smile on her face. Mousie, Ashlie, Bri and her awaited for the boys to come home. A knock was heard, they all looked around tentatively to see who was going to get the door, Bri stood slowly.

She was shaking.

She opened the door, Tommy put a finger up to his lips and walked in the hall, Jon following, Uni... Nick...

But no Cory.

Tears welled in her eyes and swallowed a sob, a chorus of screams and squeals were heard from the living room.

"Am I late?" Cory rushed through the closing door as Bri let out a shaky breath and tackled him in a hug, tears spilling down her face. "YOU PIECES OF SHITS DIDN'T WAIT FOR ME!" Cory called, "Oh yeah, Cory's not dead." Jon added and continued hugging Ashlie.

"I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU." Bri shouted and continued hugging him, "Y'know I wrote this whole letter for you on a plane, it was supposed to be very emotional, but you just screaming those words are nice too." Cory laughed.

Bri's cheeks flushed and got off of him.

"Hey Bri,"

"Yes?"

"I love you,"
