Rhys stares again at me with annoyance. “Nicely, go discover him. We don’t want him wandering round alone, bear in mind? Carry him to me. I have to see that radar footage from earlier.”

“Sure, sir.”

I bend over to seek out my boots, silently cursing his identify.

Dammit, Carson.

Fox gestures to Rhys. “Sir, have you ever heard from command concerning the convoy?”

“Ignore it?”

He nods. “Apparently, it’s not attention-grabbing sufficient to waste sources on. I’ll maintain you guys up to date if they are saying the rest however, within the meantime, ignore it.” He spins round to depart. “And discover Carson.”

I anticipate the sergeant to vanish earlier than sighing arduous. “Did you see him go away?” I ask Fox.

He shakes his head. “I’ll go together with you.”

I slide my jacket on and anticipate him to lace his boots earlier than charging outdoors into the windy evening.

“Why?”

“Caleb, come on. It’s apparent.”

“I do know it’s and I don’t prefer it. This isn’t the place for his crush.”

“It’s not simply his.”

I cease in my tracks. “Excuse me?”

He smirks. “Caleb.”

“What?”

“Caleb.”

My jaw sags. “You suppose I…? Him?”

“Yup.”
