You felt like you were being squeezed to death. You couldn't will yourself to suck in a breath, Your ribcage constricting the erratic pounding of your heart.

" what? " you could barely choke out a word. Tucker merely sighed, rubbing the back of his neck.

" It's over, (y/n). You just weren't enough. I'm sorry " with just those words the sky seemed to shatter into a million pieces, your whole world crashing down on you. You couldn't even tell if time was passing, eventually finding yourself alone, tucker gone.

The tears finally made their way to your eyes, emotions finally starting to fully kick in, leaving you more breathless than the start. Gentle arms wrapped around your shoulders, leading you away as you start sobbing.

" it's okay. Don't cry " the words uttered didn't sound comforting at all. the tone used made it sound like you were already being a burden. Blinking the fog of tears out of your eyes for a second you could only make out the face of a stranger.

-----

You were awoken by someone shaking your shoulder roughly. Eyelids fluttered open and you were met with the irritated face of your, now close friend, kimball. Groaning you rolled back over.

" Leave me alone woman! " your eyes closed again, granting you a blissful darkness for a few more seconds before something heavy landed on you.

" Ugh! You fat bitch, get off! " a whine parting your lips into a smile as kimball sat on your stomach.

" This is the second time this week that you've slept in! Get your shit together (l/n), you're a general now" kimball frowned down at you, brushing some of the morning bed head out of your face.

" I propose, the higher the rank, the more sleep ins you're allowed " you chuckle as your friend slaps the top of your head.

" get up, we have to welcome our new heroes " with that she left you to get ready.

-----

You and kimball walked swiftly to the med bay, apparently one of the 'heroes' was waking up. As you approached you could hear voices.

" -you guys put up a good fight, I can see why kimball and (l/n) want you " Felix's voice was clear as day, although you had no idea why he was there.

" who the fuck are they? "  at the second voice you froze, kimball bumping into you slightly. You looked up at her fearfully, her hand slipping into yours. She had no idea why you were suddenly troubled, but being the good friend, and leader, she was, she knew you needed comfort.

" we are. Vanessa kimball, leader of the new republic. This is (y/n) (l/n), one of our generals " Vanessa gave you a gentle push forward, but you couldn't move, just the sight of him made all of your old feelings stir up again.

" glad to meet you. I wish it were under better circumstances though" kimball continued, although tucker had already figured out who you were.

" uh, yeah " he seemed unsure, causing waves of rage to wash over you. How dare he be the one to feel bad, he knew what he was doing all those years ago. How could he have to audacity-

" your friends are waiting for you up near the mess hall,  it's just north of here. Why don't you go catch up? We'll talk later " kimball, ignoring the tense atmosphere, was quick to dismiss him. Which you were obviously thankful for.

" yeah.." Tucker muttered half heartedly, then walked right past you, leaving you feeling cold. You glanced back at him only to have your attention brought back to kimball and Felix.

" you're not getting paid the full amount "

" I know "

" you're lucky you're even getting paid at all "

" I know! "

Kimball turns to you, gesturing you closer as Felix walks away.

" so what was with the little emotional breakdown kinda thing " kimball leant against the wall, taking her helmet off to reveal beautiful almond skin and electric blue eyes, bearing a smile.

" it's him... That's tucker "

-----

" pst, hey look! It's them! "

" woah! "

You grit your teeth I'm silent protest. You were beyond sick of everyone obsessing over the Reds and blues. It also didn't help that tucker had been making an effort to hook up with every single female friend of yours. Including kimball.

Standing up, you went to return your lunch tray. As you went to put yours away someone knocked into you, getting your leftover food all over your armour. You spin around to be met with Tuckers ugly face.

" oops, my bad " he shrugged, turning to keep walking. At this point, you'd had enough of his bullshit. Picking up your tray you aimed, then threw it. Directly at his manhood.

" oops, my bad "

Sorry if you wanted something romancey, I felt like making it kinda depressing XD
