Las Vegas; condo

Derek POV

You were woken up by Mickey, you looked at the clock and it read 2:26 AM.

Mickey: Hey its been a few hours.

Derek: Gotcha gotcha, get some sleep now.

Mickey: Yea I will, I need this rest.

You got out of bed while Mickey got onto the bed. You walked over to a wall and grabbed your HK-416 and holstered your glock. You walked out of the room and went out to the balcony of the condo. You looked in the distance and looked at the city lights. It was peaceful, although it was short lived since you had to be on guard for any more of those mercenaries.

Timeskip 5 hours

Nothing exactly went wrong, there was no suspicious activity and you didn't notice anything odd about the surroundings. Mickey came out onto the balcony and walked up next to you with a 2 cups of coffee.

Mickey: *hands you mug* See anything?

Derek: *takes it* No I didn't. Judging by how long its been, the pilot should be on his way back soon. Might let us know when he's close so we know when to start heading back.

Mickey: You know, I enjoy staying with you on missions.

Derek: How come?

Mickey: Because we're almost like the same person, besides we make a good duo.

Derek: Well you are technically second in command.

Mickey: Yea even though I'm a Corporal.

Derek: Rank doesn't matter, if it did, then John would be second in command. Its all on how well you work with your environment and your team. John is used to receiving orders while you end up doing both.

Mickey: You're true about that.

Derek: Besides, we've all bonded well with eachother, feel like I've bonded with you more though.

Mickey: Yea, could say the same to you aswell.

Derek: You changed my life, don't know how I'd be now without you in my squad.

Mickey: I did?

Derek: Ofcourse, I didn't know what to do with my life, not having family and my sister enlisted in the military, leaving myself alone in my thoughts, I was silent during basic. My only purpose for enlisting in the military was to just have a reason to die. Then here you come, during basic when squads are formed, being enthusiastic as ever.

Mickey: I was an energetic kid.

Derek: You changed my whole purpose in life, thats why you're my second in command. Because I know when to rely on you.

Tux: Just kiss already.

Derek: He has a fiance dumbass.

Tux: Well how was I supposed to know.

Derek: .... good point.

Tux: So when do we leave?

Derek: In a couple hours.

Tux: So what do we do for the time being?

Derek: Wait it out? I don't fucking know. Or we could just start heading back and wait there.

Evan: Yea I'd much rather just start heading back there.

Derek: Alright its settled, lets go.

Tix: What about my choice.
