“Thanks.”
A man hurried across the chow hall wearing shorts and an Army T-shirt. He headed directly toward their table.
Nora didn’t recognize him. “Expecting someone?” she asked Rucker, tipping her head toward the man.
Rucker turned, a frown pulling his eyebrows together. “Why the hell’s Dash awake?”
Nora frowned. “Dash? Please tell me that’s his callsign, not his real name.”
Rucker laughed. “It should be his real name. He’s first into the fight, and he’s fast.” Rucker stood and faced his teammate. “What’s up?”
“CO wants us all in the Tactical Operations Center,” Dash said. “On the double.”
“Guess that’s my cue to exit.” Rucker turned to Nora. “I enjoyed our talk.”
She nodded. “Me, too.”
Dash grinned. “Tell you what…I’ll stay and finish your conversation while you see what the commander wants.”
Rucker hooked Dash’s arm twisted it up behind his back, and gave him a shove toward the door. “You heard the CO, he wants all of us.” Rucker winked at Nora. “I hope to see you on the volleyball court before you leave.”
“Same. Good luck.” Nora’s gaze followed Rucker’s broad shoulders and tight ass out of the chow hall. Too bad she’d only be there another week before she shipped out. She would’ve enjoyed more volleyball and coffee with the Delta Force operative.
He’d probably be on maneuvers that entire week.
She stacked her tray and coffee cup in the collection area and left the chow hall, heading for the building where she shared her quarters with Beth Drennan, a nurse she’d become friends with during their deployment together.
As close as they were, Nora didn’t bring up her conversation with the Delta. With only a week left at the base, she probably wouldn’t run into him again. Though she would like to see him again, she prayed he didn’t end up in the hospital.
