Adalyn sat in her room quitly. She liked to have time to herself since she didn't get it much anymore now that she was in college and had so much going on. She had just gotten back home from a party with some of her new 'friends' that she had made over the course of being there. She had a lot of them now, a lot of people that call her a friend anyways. She didn't really know about any of them though. She could think back to a time where she had one friend or actually more than that even. She pushed those thoughts away though, there was no need in thinking about that. There were plenty of people still caring enough to stay in her life.
 
A young man walked through the ladies section of the dorms in a university. He was dressed in uniform from the army, he archieved a lot but was released due to a injury on his leg. He walked with the help of a cane but it was preatty fast walker. A paper on his hand he crushed it placing it on his pocket, he looked at the number on the door and took a deep breath knocking three times. He heard her but did not answered he wanted to give her a surprise. His leg hurt a bit, the bullet went through his bone almost crushing it, he was lucky he did not lost his leg on that shot. He had done so much in the war for her, he hoped she would recognize him
 
Adalyn jumped up from her sitting place when she heard the knocks. She wasn't expecting anyone this late, but it wasn't unusual for people to visit her either. She went to the door and unlocked it before opening it. She stared for a long time before her mouth fell open. It took a moment before she could really comprehend what was going on and what to say to him. "You're alive."
Her voice didn't hold much emotion in it, only because she was starting to think that maybe she had drank even with a conscious effort to stay away from it.
 
He nodded looking at her, her reaction was preatty obvious. He smirked and hugged her deciding to break the ice. He kissed the top of her head as he used to do, he was taller than she was so it was simple thing for him to do, "I told you, nothing would stop me from coming back to you, not even a bullet". He broke the kiss and shook his head, "sorry I did not wrote, I was in a accident and I was unconcious for long time".
 
She smiled at him and put her arms around his waist. She was so happy to see him and maybe she wasn't dreaming after all. Realization then hit her as she backed away from him and gasped, "I'm sorry... I didn't know." She felt guilty for not noticing his leg was injured, "You can sit down." She said closing the door behind him. "I was really starting to worry when I didn't hear from you. I thought that..." She trailed off not wanting to say it.
 
He shook his head as he sat on her bed, "You kept me alive, believe it or not". He smiled pushing one of the legs of the pants up and revealing a very deep wound that had been treated, " A shot in the leg, and some burns in the back, a car bomb blew up behind me and I got some of the blast, the gear protected most of my body". He looked around and smiled, she had gotten on with her life, that was good. He looked around saw that the room was preatty big, "you seem to be doing well hun, you did go on with your life and that is good. I must ask you this, did you found somebody else? if you did I understand and will not bother in the relationship, but I want at least to still be your friend", he smiled and layed on the bed slowly as the pain shoot up on his burned back.
 
She looked him over feeling bad that he had gone through that, but it was for a good cause, she couldn't be mad at him for doing it. A chill went down her back as the words he spoke sank in. Found someone new? The thought of the few people she had liked and dated, but none of them had compared to him at all. She never wanted to think about that though, because she honestly didn't know that he would come back for her. "I... no one... is worth what I had with you." She honestly didn't know how to say it better than that.
 
He smiled pleased with the answer, she had gone through life but had not forgotten him. He sighed and sat up next to her, "I am sorry about everything, but I got good news, I am retired and cannot go back to war, I am here to stay. I will be living on my old house that is mine now". He took a deep breath and took something out of his pocket, it was a small box, "I will not take life forgranted anymore, I want to marry you, will you marry me?" he smiled opening the little box and revealing a very beautiful ring.
 
Adalyn stared at him shocked and then at the ring. She knew she shouldn't be surprised at all. When he first left that was all she had thought about, but then after she thought he was dead she didn't expect to get married so soon. She was still in college and didn't really think it happen until afterwords. She really didn't want anything more than to be with him forever, she just hoped that he'd be the same person he had always been. "I... I would like to." She closed her eyes before smiling at him, she was trying hard to keep her composer. It was a lot to take in at one time.
 
He smiled watching her reaction, he knew he had thrown her a bomb. He smiled and took the ring sliding it on her finger. He kissed her with all the passion he had stored for her, he loved her and the kiss showed how much his feelings were toward the woman. After he broke the kiss he smiled, "I am living on my old house alone, you are more than welcomed to go live with me, I already have a gift for you there but I need you to come with me, have any classes today?". He smiled grabbing his keys and looking at her, he grabbed a peace of cloth he had on his pocket and smiled waiting for her answer.
 
"No, classes end early on Friday." She replied as she stood up. She watched him wondering what he was holding. "I'll come with you for now." She replied and smiled at him. She was glad to spend sometime with him after so long. She was still so glad that he was even alive right now. She couldn't help but to walk up to him and hug him tight and smile more. She looked around her room for her keys to lock her door before going back over to him and smiling. "I'm ready."
