She sat around the bar watching the dagger squad belt out Greats Balls Of Fire. Kaia felt herself swallow yet another emotion of hurt, she so badly craved to be friends with them.
She wanted love someone like Maverick loved Penny. Everyday Kaia fought the urge to accidentally loose control of plane and die, but by then when they would investigate her death the navy would find out how much of coward she truly was.
Like always to stop herself from getting hurt Kaia removed herself emotionally, numbing whatever pain she felt. Most people thought she was cold hearted but they never realized this was act of saving the last bit of life inside her.
Before leaving she took one more glance watching the team shout Greats Balls Of Fire.
Kaia quietly slipped out of the bar walking towards the ocean watching the waves crashed violently.
She imagined what it would feel like to drown to death.
She wondered what it felt like to be gone from the living side of earth.
"darlin hasn't anyone ever told you being alone is overrated", Jake asked, gently pulling her into a hug.
Kaia pulled herself away from Jake blinking her tears away, her tears slowly came to a halt and her face relaxed into nothing.
"hey, hey no", Jake rubbed her knuckles with his hands easing her face into his chest.” dont have to hide from me Kaia”
"Too much for me handle" she mumbled into Jakes chest.
"I'll take half then"
