WATCHING IN SLOW MOTION AS YOU TURN AROUND AND SAY
i gave jake a smirk "but how do i know your not playing with me?"
TAKE MY BREATH AWAY
jake looked at me like he was serious "because i would die for you"

my heart broke for maverick and for everyone else that was close to maverick. i know iceman was a good guy.
watching maverick with teary eyes as he punched the navy thing ( i'm sorry i don't know what it's called) into iceman's casket
i was standing in the middle of my mom and dad, they both had some tears falling down their faces. i linked my arm with my moms.
my dad and are both wearing a navy suits, along with everyone else that was in the navy. this was a very sad moment, iceman was a well respected human being in all of ours life
my thoughts were interrupted from my mom "sweetie is been over for a couple minutes and you've just been standing here, everything okay?"
i nodded at her question "yeah, it's just sad" i tell her "hey jake come here" i called for him
he looked over at me and my mom and walking over to us with a smile
"hi mrs bait, it's nice to see you again" she shook her hand "how are you doing?"
she smiled at him then to me "i've been great, such a bad place to talk though, tom was a great guy"
jake put his hand around my waist and i leaned into his side "that he was" jake said
i nodded with a smile "we're gonna go talk to our friends okay momma"
"okay, talk to you later jake" she waved us bye and jake and i walked away
"so" i started, looked up at him as we stopped walking "you okay?"
"yeah" he then asked me "are you? i know you were closer with him more than me for sure"
i nodded, i laid my head on his chest and he wrapped his arms around me "yeah, it's just hard"
"i know it is" he kissed me head

today we were back at work, in one of the rooms. like everyday i was sitting by coyote while chewing a piece of my gum.
"captain mitchell is no longer your instructor, as of today there are new mission parameters" the admiral informed us "time to target is now 4 minutes"
since when? i thought, and why?
"you'll be entering the valley level at reduced speed, not to exceed 420 knots" he continued
i really wanted to gripe at him and tell him to go and fuck himself but that's not me
"you have a fighting chance against enemy aircraft, more than the odds of surviving a head in collision with a mountain" he responded to bobs question, i didn't even here bobs question "captain mitchell taught his way, i teach a different one"
"you'll be attacking the target from a higher altitude. level with north wall" i shook my head in disbelief at his words
a couple beeping noises came from the screen, i meander my elbows against the table, confused until i heard his voice
"maverick to range control, entering point alpha. confirm green range" mavericks voice came out of the speakers
"range control to maverick. green range is confirmed, but i don't see an event scheduled for you sir"
"well im going anyway" mav said
a smirk had appeared on my face, what a badass, i started bouncing my leg
"nice" she heard phoenix from behind her
"seeing time to target, 2 minutes and 15 seconds"
"2 minutes and 15 seconds?" payback deleted mags words "that impossible"
"mavericks inbound"
the time started and he's been doing good, really good. there could be an actual chance that us fighters can do this mission
i leaned more in my seat when the timer hit 1 minute and 30 seconds
he started to go a bit faster, when he was about to release the bombs we all stood up
"you got this maverick" i mumbled
"bombs away" we heard his voice say, he did it. he was now struggling with the deep mountain, pulling 10 gs
