“He was…” Cindy stumbled over the words and almost tripped into Deek’s chest. “He loved you.”
“You keep saying that. I know it already. I’m not some dumb Jarhead. I’m Delta.”
Cindy could only stare up at him, “Jimmy loved you, Deek.”

“Cind?” He’d followed her back into the room though she didn’t recall retreating until she’d collapsed back into her chair once more.
“Jimmy…was never interested in women. And there was only one man that he ever loved.”
