Lavender Moon

I was always the bad boy. The kid from the broken home and the wrong side of the tracks. But in her eyes, I hung the moon.

The girl from my summers who I thought I'd never see again. Finding her now right before I'm due to deploy is like a gift, one I'm not going to waste. She was always meant to be mine and I'm going to make it official. My silly girl is now my spirited wife, giving me someone to come home to.

Little do I know I won't be coming home—at least not as the same man. Luna
