Once in the car and head to the cemetery where Sunny's dad was laid to rest. As we drive we talk . Then there's silence and she starts to cry she looks at us with those big blue eyes and asks my dad? Yeah, baby girl it's your birthday we thought you'd want to see him, spend time with him for a bit even if its only a symbolic way we thought you might like it. We also brought a blanket and your dad some coffee she laughed at that her dad loved coffee.Thanks guys I really appreciate it she said. No problem we will go up and set things up and pay our respects then let you have some time. Oh, and baby girl we brought you some hot tea. Wow she says you guys thought of everything. We love you and wanted you to have a good day, Ash says. I say baby girl your dad because he was in the military wrote a letter for every birthday and major event in your life in case he wasn't here for it your mom said he rewrote them last year just before the accident and this one is for today. But he wasn't supose to deploy again. I know baby but he wanted to always be prepared because he could have been called back if they needed him. She stars to cry and says thank you. We get her settled and then say we are going to the car when your ready to go just come get us and we will get everything and bring it back. We walk to the car and get in I look at Ash and say we need to talk. Ok he says. Ash are you in love with my Sunny? He gulps and says man if you're in love with her Danny as hard as it will be I will step back. I laugh nah man it's not like that with us I love her to the ends of the earth for sure but not like that. Ash I saw you two in the mall I saw love in your eyes now tell me did I see that wrong or not. He takes in a breath and exhales but says nothing. So, I tease ok man that sucks I guess I will be the one to give Sunny her first kiss and make it really good. He jumps up and grabs my collar what did you say I look at him you first. He lets go fine I'm in love with your best friend and not just the short term kind I want a future with her I want her to have my babies and be mine till death parts us but I can't do anything because she's too young. So, going to the Navy will help me till she is old enough they wanted me so much I was able to negotiate my contract I will be 2 years away then 2 years domestic providing there isn't a mission they need me on the feild for. Bro why not just stay here and work on your relationship? I can't he says I want her in every way in the way a man wants a woman. I have never wanted that from anyone and I fear staying here I will slip up and ruin her life. Wow ok well how are you going to cultivate a relationship from far away. I have a plan and set certain things in place before I leave but I will need your help I have a credit card that I will leave for you to buy her stuff like if she having a bad day I have written notes and have set up the florist for other occasions like holidays and birthday and some cheer up because your sad days. The sad days you'll have to be in charge of but there's notes for it all. I stare at my brother your serious I say. I am he says she's the love of my life. I look up how do you know that?

When I'm with her she makes me want to be better to change the world for her and our future children I long for her and no substitute will do. She is everything he says. I just look at him in awe. Now tell me about the kiss. I will I say just give me one sec. I know you're in love with her but brother or not you ever hurt her, I will kick your butt, got it. He says got it, now the kiss. We talked about it because she's never kissed anyone before she asked me to be her first kiss because she trusts me but I think you should kiss your future wife it will be way too awkweird if I kiss my future sister in law. He says I don't know bro I'm 18. I look at him and I say get over your age hang up or my tongue will be in her mouth tonight your choice. Ash says ok I'm doing it. I smile I knew that would get him. You know lots of people are older than two years who get married and some are high school sweethearts. So in reality its not as big of a deal as you're making it. Ok my brother says.
