Dear Soldier II closed

DEAR SOLDIER sounded much too stiff & formal, but DEAR RODRIK sounded much too familiar & casual. She ( finally ) settled on writing DEAR GE- NERAL FORRESTER at the top of the snow white paper. For the tenth time that day Elaena took the 5 x 7 photo of the serious( rather attractive )  man from the stack of papers that she had received  upon signing up to be a pen pall of sorts to a soldier overseas.

Elaena followed all of the ‘ instructions ‘ that she had been given, she told him her name, how she had come to be writing this letter, a few things about herself & included her own 5 x 7 image. The whole thing felt awkward & forced - in fact she wouldn’t blame Rodrik if he didn’t answer her.

When he was told he had mail Rodrik almost laughed - no one sent him anything, not anymore. Asher had, once, & both his mother & Talia sent the occasional hope-you-aren’t-dead-we-heard- something-on-the-news type letters. It was new & he felt an almost immediate sense that something was UP.

He read the letter maybe two days after he had gotten it. It wasnt like Rodrik was too busy to read it, he just wasnt in the mood to. However, once he had read Elaenas letter, he wished he had sooner. She seemed to be a radiating ball of energy, & she was beautiful, funny & apparently grew up near him.

Rodrik began writing back almost right away, eager to keep in touch with Elaena so he might feel a bit less l o n e l y out here.

Hurt/wounded sentence starters

"Listen.. listen t'me... I'm so proud of you..."
"The world's not as bad as you think it is."
"Call it a metalcut. Like a papercut, but bigger and more lethal."
"It hurts."
"Call an ambulance!"
"Help me."
"Are you all right?"
"No, stay with me. Stay awake."
"Wake up!"
"We need to get out of here."
"Forget it."
"I can patch you up. You'll be fine."
"Stop complaining!"
"Who did this to you?"
"What are you doing in a hospital-- why are you bleeding?"
"It's just a flesh wound."
"What do you mean, you're okay?"
"Put it down."
"How did this one happen, exactly?"
"If you didn't want her to slap you, you shouldn't've been an idiot."
"Are you serious right now?"
"Do you remember me?"
"Do I know you?"
"How are you feeling?"
"Don't speak. Just.. look at me."
"Keep your eyes open."
"Look at me."
"It's allowed to hurt."
"I can't do this!"
"Just let it happen."
"I don't care. If it will save you, I'll do it."
"I'd do ANYTHING to keep you alive so don't for a second tell me to not worry."
"You're meant to be stronger than this."
"Pull something out that will fix this. You always have something."
"I'm not actually a doctor."
"IS THERE A DOCTOR ON THE TRAIN?"
"Stop moving."
"Shut up for once, would you?"

Dear Soldier

Muse A picks up the address of a soldier, Muse B, stationed overseas in a local charity program. They send a care package and a letter, but don’t really expect to hear back from them. Weeks pass, they forget, and then in their mailbox they find an envelope from the soldier.

It goes from there, and sooner or later, that random soldier, becomes, to Muse A, their soldier. Letter writing leads to phone calls, phone calls lead to skype sessions, weeks folding into months. Muse B excitedly let’s Muse B know they’ll be coming home, and now they face the decision, will they meet?

Possible Twists: 

1) Muse A or Muse B is in a relationship already.

2) Muse B gets injured and is sent home, with Muse A deciding to help care for them.
