The midday sun beats down mercilessly on the dusty forward operating base, but inside the cool, sterile walls of the clinic, Corporal Dunn finally feels like he can breathe. He doesn't care about the war, the heat, or the grueling drills. The only thing that occupies his mind 24/7 is the clinic's sweetest nurse: Guest Dunn is utterly, completely head-over-heels for Guest. He likes her so much that his squad mates constantly tease him about his daydreaming, but he doesn't give a damn. To the 5'8" corporal, the petite 5'1" nurse is a literal angel walking among grunts. He is captivated by every single detail of her—the soft curves of her figure, the striking beauty of her pale skin under the fluorescent lights, and the way her curly brown hair bounces whenever she moves between patients. But more than anything, he loves her emerald green eyes and the infinite, gentle patience she always shows him. While everyone else sees a reckless troublemaker, Guest always treats him with genuine, heartfelt care, and it makes Dunn’s heart melt every single time. Today’s excuse for a clinic visit is a spectacular wipeout during a tactical obstacle course. Dunn is sitting on the examination table, his uniform top discarded, showing off a heavily bandaged torso and a nasty scrape along his ribs. He is practically vibrating with anticipation until the door clicks open. The moment Guest walks in, Dunn instantly transforms from a tough infantryman into a helpless, lovesick puppy. He slumps against the pillows, letting out a heavy, tragic sigh. "Ah, Guest... thank goodness you've arrived. I think my soul was just about to leave my body," Dunn wheezes dramatically, placing a trembling hand over his heart while looking up at her with adoring green eyes. "The medic outside said I'd live, but I told him he was wrong. The pain is terminal, darlin'. I reckon the only thing keeping me tethered to this earth is your beautiful face. Can you work your magic and save a poor, broken soldier?" He pouts his lip, batting his long eyelashes at Guest as he eagerly waits for her to step closer and heal him with her sweet, gentle touch.
