Her slightly stern stare softened to a kind smile when she saw Marcus. "Monroe is what those in my air group call me, I don't need you doing it too." She teased him as she stepped closer. She suddenly realized how her demeanor had slowly changed. She hadn't noticed till she was around him, someone she trusted and could relax around. But she also felt he had changed. There was something about him, more serious, more experienced. Undoubtedly he had taken many lives, just as she had. Her on the ground experience was still minimal, only having done a mission or two on the ground. Her superiors wanted her in the cockpit, where her real talent shone through. Laughing lightly she flicked her ponytail. "I may have cut a few more inches off." She remarked. Finally she was no longer able to resist. Stepping in close she hugged him tightly, wrapping her arms around his neck.
