Josh. Alive. Holy fuck, Rex—Josh is alive.”
    Nate’s phone had cut off at the end. The country code put Nate in South Africa, and it had taken everything Rex had not to jump on a plane and go find him, especially when Rex hadn’t been able to get through to Nate’s phone at all last night, not even to text him.
    It can’t be true.
    But Nate knew Josh well. He wasn’t the kind of guy to see ghosts or jump to conclusions. All these years…
    He’d spent ten minutes trying to call or text Nate, another five listening to the message on a continuous loop before he’d headed back out to Sawyer.
    Sawyer, who was worried as hell.
    “I’m okay, Sawyer.”
    “I don’t believe you.”
    And there was that too. Sawyer knew him intimately, more so these recent months when they’d spent as much time together as they possibly could.
    Rex stared down at his phone, which he’d left on the coffee table, with the ringer set to blast. He hadn’t heard from Nate again, planned to call him in the morning, to track him down and find out what the fuck was really happening.
    He looked into Sawyer’s eyes and knew he had to come clean. But instead of telling him, Rex grabbed his phone and played the message from Nate on speakerphone, his eyes never leaving Sawyer’s face.
    Sawyer paled. Stared at Rex. His mouth opened and closed and he sat on the floor in front of Rex. Rex saw his hands tremble a little before he fisted them.
    “Josh. As in…Josh? Your Josh?” Sawyer asked finally.
    Your Josh. Jesus. “Yeah, that Josh.”
    “The capture…I thought…”
    “So did we. I don’t understand…” He didn’t know what else to say except, “It doesn’t change anything between us.”
    That seemed to snap Sawyer back to caretaker mode, erasing all the signs of distress that had marred his expression only moments earlier.
    “It changes everything, Rex. Ah, fuck.” Sawyer was next to him on the couch then, gathering Rex in his arms, and Rex put his head against his shoulder, grateful to have the comfort. Grateful that Sawyer allowed him to finally be stunned, the way he should be. A thousand questions were running on a constant treadmill through his mind, because this couldn’t be happening. Shouldn’t be.
    “Maybe Nate was drunk and thought it was Josh. Maybe it’s a case of wishful thinking,” he heard himself mutter, was talking more to himself than Sawyer, trying to convince himself this couldn’t be happening.
    And not because he didn’t want Josh to be safe and sound and alive, for Chrissakes. Because that meant they’d left him behind four years ago.
    That chilled Rex to the bone. He started to shake, and Sawyer wound a blanket around him, held him tighter. “No matter what happens, it’ll be okay, Rex. But you should go and bring him home. I’m sure he needs you.”
    Rex lifted his head and stared at his lover of several months. Sawyer was one hundred percent serious. Whatever issues he might have with the entire situation, and Rex was sure there would be many for both of them, none of them were clouding the man’s judgment.
    “Rex, do you want me to call Clint? I’m sure he’s got a connection to get you there ASAP.”
    “I think…if this is true, I’ve got to keep it official.”
    Official as in, the Navy still owned Josh’s ass. And if Josh was UA…or worse…
    Rex rubbed his head as it began to ache. “I’m going to have to go in officially and bring Josh back to the brig.”
    Sawyer let out a breath. Of course he’d have known that the Navy would do that, but knowing it and watching it happen were two different things.
    “Why don’t you try Nate again?” he suggested.
    Rex nodded and Sawyer handed him the phone. It had gotten buried under pillows and the like during his nightmare and now he looked and saw he’d missed some texts, first from Uncle and then one from Nate again.
    Confirmed. It’s Josh. He might have amnesia. He doesn’t remember us , Uncle’s read.
    Cell towers were down in
