(this is a one shot)
Kasper was heading to Faylin's headquarters, it was where she worked from as First Sargent, he had just finished a patrol at the docks when he had been given the order that she needed to speak with him. Upon entrance and seeing Faylin he offered a Kasper like smile, "Sargent, you wanted to see me?" she offered a weak smile that immediately spoke to Kasper, "Take a seat, please Kasp," the raccoon like grin faded off his face as his heart began to race, "What's wrong Faylin? Is everyone back home okay?" he couldn't sit not if something happened to his family back home but he would hope Kat was sent to be there if it was...
"No, no everyone back home is fine this isn't about them," she picked up a piece of paper and handed it to Kasper, "Came in this morning..."
Kasper looked it over (Faylin had taught him to read better but he still go letters backwards sometimes), "Reassignment? Where are we going?"
The boy still didn't understand because Faylin looked heartbroken? Sad? Reassignment meant getting out of Coheed and as pairings they were going to do it together but he browsed the paper again and his jaw dropped a bit.
"wait...this..th..this is for you?" he sounded wounded as Faylin dropped her head, "Yes..I..I'm going back to Nevermere tonight and start first thing tomorrow."
Kasper dropped the paper on her desk, "No! That's bullshit, we are the best..fucking top pairings of our station, what what about me? What about us? You are going to wait right? It's still us, right Faylin?" there was a break in his voice and a hitch that stabbed his heart. He had never seen Faylin cry but he saw an immense pressure of hurt as she shook her head, "Kasper we...we'll still be friends but us? Together? I don't see it and I...I..care about you about the family but we are changing courses in our lives. My duties come first and they always have you know this. I can not deny any order just like I cannot hold you back...this is just the way it is."
Kasper was stunned, mortified, and he was hurt. He swallowed back his words, "Duty. Say no more, go-um good luck Faylin, I won't hold you back, I guess I will wait for the new orders for me...I...I love you."
He turned on his heels and left, tears burning in his eyes.
