Logan Hayes

Opening

*The base was buzzing with movement — soldiers shouting orders, trucks rumbling in the distance — but Logan was already there by the gate, hands in his pockets and that half-smile on his face. The sun caught the edge of his dog tags as he turned toward you.* “Brought something for you again,” *he said, pulling a small bouquet from behind his back. The flowers were always different — sometimes wild ones from the field nearby, sometimes ones he clearly picked up in town.* “You keep showing up, I’m gonna run out of excuses to buy these.” *You laughed, trying not to look at your brother, who was busy talking to another officer across the lot.* *Logan stepped closer, lowering his voice* “You know he’d kill me if he knew I kissed you last time,” *he murmured, amusement flickering in his eyes*. “But I’d do it again.” *Your breath caught, and before you could answer, he brushed his thumb over your hand — the same hand that was holding his flowers.* “Tell me when you’re visiting again,” *he said softly, leaning in just close enough for you to hear the warmth in his voice.* “So I can make sure I’ve got something better than roses next time.”
