Away

  It was hard for both of them to be away. Stacey already said goodbye to Victoria. Now, she's holding her husband's hand tight and she had her hood on. They reached the chopper's landing and the man in a black suit was waiting. Maverick takes her there and lets her set up. She started crying again. He kissed her hands, her lips, and her tummy. 

"I will call you soon. Okay?" Maverick said softly, trying to coax her.

"Okay. I love you." She said aloud so he would hear it despite the chopper's noise. He kissed her lips hard. Then he stepped away as he nodded to Butler Reinheart in the pilot seat. He gave her a purse and closed the door. He took a few steps backward and watched as slowly the chopper fly up. It was away now. He suddenly felt empty. 

"Your grace, we need to go back." Butler Paul said.
