Torn Between

Two Lovers

Pairing: Lewis Nixon/Richard Winters/Eugene Roe

Summary:A sweet moment between Nix, Winters and Roe after WWII.

they'd take SUCH good care of him 😏

roe doesnt have his nightmares loud. hes silent as a mouse and stiff as a board through them and will wake up in the dead of night sweating. he will sit quietly on a couch that needs its springs replaced in the still darkness of the night listening to the water shift past the porch on stilts and the rustling of willow trees. he will sit through the gentle motion of the dog placing his head on his knee petting the dog with stiff movements, his arm stuck at the elbow as he works through the motions like a soldier ordered to do something.

dick will walk into the room- lips dry and cracking and his mouth parched, familiar with the homes layout more than the one he returned to after the war. he knows the bottleneck between a winged chair and the wall that he has to twist his knee inwards to miss knocking it against the wood, and he almost misses roe. the man sat stiff as a pious man in the silence of church, eyes unseeing and half lidded as the dog noses at his thigh from under his hand. he will greet roe with a gentle hand cupping his face and a warm embrace and will watch as the permafrost that seems to snap over the man will slowly recede. he will guide roe between him and lew in a bed not meant to fit three grown met and will forget his original mission of water.
