Roona walked towards the small landing pad that joined the village. Clad in a tank top, cut-off shorts, and sandals, it didn't feel like Lifeday was anywhere near... not here on the beaches of Alaris Prime. But the holiday was quickly approaching, and the former soldier had returned home.
And she came out to the landing pad to greet someone very important.
Her tall form came to stand at the coordinates she'd given to Commander [member="Valkren Calderon"] once he'd accepted her invitation. Despite the rather serious expression on her face, she was nervous. The two soldiers had been an item, close-knit during their time serving together. However, as their relationship continued, Roona had made the decision to leave the Rangers as she hadn't wanted to sully the commander's reputation. It'd been difficult, but once her mind was made up—she carried on.
Ever since, the two hadn't lined up their leaves with much success. But duty was duty. With the Silver Services, Roona had a bit more freedom–she was no longer out on the front lines. Part of her sorely missed the excitement and camaraderie. Most of all, she missed seeing Valkren. Hell, she even missed the other guys—even if they teased her endlessly (especially after finding out about her feelings for Commander Calderon).
It'd been months since they'd last seen eachother.
As a Silver Jedi transport ship set down, her heart skipped. Roona wondered if Valkren still felt the same. She didn't doubt him, but she knew that time often changed people. The rational part of her mind attempted to soothe her insecurities away, he had agreed to come meet her family, after all. For her own part, no matter the months or the distance between them, Roona's feelings hadn't changed.
