Following is the long awaited third chapter in the Stuck series. Although, each chapter continues the story in one way or another, each is designed to stand on its own. Thanks to everyone who wrote and encouraged me to continue. I hope this meets your expectations and was worth the wait.

A nudge and the glare from a red tinted flashlight woke Tammy from her restless sleep. A voice in the darkness whispered "Lt. Olsen. Wake up. It's 0240. You're on watch in twenty minutes."
"I'm up…I'm up" Tammy replied sleepily. This seemed to appease the soldier and she heard the sentry shuffling out of the tent. The young nurse sat up in her bunk and let her eyes gradually adjust to the low light. Pulling on her bulky green Army fatigues she smiled at how easy it was to dress in the dark when she didn't have to worry about color coordination. She knocked her boots against a tent support to shake out any scorpions that may have taken up residence in the night. Once her boots were tightly laced against her slim ankles she made her way out and across the dark compound.
Moonlight filtered through a low fog, giving the camp an eerie deserted look. The only sounds were the natural chirps and calls of the surrounding jungle creatures. The few people stirring were moving as quietly as she or sitting still at their posts. She nodded at a young soldier, on guard duty, who sprawled lazily against a low wall of sand bags with his M-16 resting in his lap. He gave her a sleepy salute as she passed.
The early morning heat of Vietnam pressed against her and the uniform quickly grew damp from the heavy mist. As she walked the fabric seemed to tickle her in her most sensitive places. She knew that it wasn't entirely because of the weight and movement of the clothing. She found herself growing sexually excited at the prospect of checking on her new patient. She licked her lips as she remembered sucking his huge cock the night before!
As she walked she mentally scolded herself for allowing her long repressed sexual urges to get the better of her. Sucking cock was not something she did often or even thought much about, until the previous evening. In fact, it was rare even back home with her husband. But after 6 months of sleeping alone on a hard cot, only being able to relieve the loneliness by slipping her own hand down between her legs, getting off in silence as 2 other nurses slept near by, she was ready to explode.
Sergeant Melvin had pulled her emotional pin and she had pulled his physically. The fact that she had broken all the rules to do it filled her with guilt yet, made it all the more exciting. She had gone against the teachings of her religion, cheated on her husband, fraternized with an enlisted man and broken the unwritten code of her society upbringing by having sex with a black man. Her daddy would die, her neighbors would gossip and her sorority sisters would shun her - if they only knew.
These thoughts all ran through her head as she recalled the events that had brought her up to that point.
The previous afternoon, the handsome Sergeant Melvin had been brought in with a head injury. He and a few others were part of a patrol that had run into an ambush. He didn't look that bad but the Doctor was afraid it could be a concussion. As they had loaded the more seriously injured onto choppers, a Ranger Lieutenant had told the Doctors that Melvin had saved all their asses that day.
Because of the possible concussion Sgt. Melvin was ordered to remain awake and under observation for 24 hours. Tammy and her few remaining medical staff stood shifts, in the empty medical tent, to make sure Melvin didn't lapse into a coma.
The MASH unit was moving out to a safer site in a few days and only a skeleton crew remained to finish the packing. All incoming patients were being sent farther back. Everyone except Melvin, who would return to his unit as soon as they felt he was ok.
That night, on Tammy's first watch, they had been shelled. The noise and stress of explosions always terrified the young female officer but this time it drove her into the arms of the muscular black soldier. She pressed herself to him during the attack and found that the heat of their bodies lit a hot torch inside her. She resisted her own primal urges but the temptation proved too great, and she wound up sucking him off like a high school girl in the backseat of the family sedan.
'But he's no high school boy' Tammy thought as she strolled toward the medical tent. 'He's all man with the equipment to prove it.' Then reproaching herself she muttered 'Stop! Stop! thinking about that' Her thoughts went back and forth from lust to self control. She wanted to throw herself at him but her rational mind told her it was wrong. She was confused and horny and something had to give.
Corporal Fenton was telling Melvin about her prize Squash back at the Montana State Fair when Tammy walked in. The Sergeant was sitting on the medical sink and gave Tammy a look of great relief when he saw her.
"Morning Ma'am" Fenton greeted her. "I think the Sergeant's gonna be just fine. He and I sat up talking all night. Didn't we Sergeant? We aren't a bit tired. I was just now telling him about my prize Squash back at the State Fair back home…"
"Thank you Corporal" Tammy interrupted. "You are relieved. Go get some sleep."
"Sure thing Ma'am" Fenton said as she began walking toward the door. "Guess I am a bit tired. Long day tomorrow. Got to get the last of those supplies packed and loaded…"
"Good night Corporal" Tammy interrupted again.
"Good night Lieutenant! Good night Sergeant Melvin." Fenton kept talking but fortunately also kept walking until she stepped out into the warm misty morning air.
"Damn" Melvin said after Fenton was out of earshot "You're supposed to keep me awake. Not torture me. That girl wouldn't shut up."
"Sorry about that. Everybody's being shipped out and I'm short staffed" Tammy said as she unbuttoned her jacket and tossed it onto an empty cot. "Might as well get comfortable. We've got a few more hours. How are you feeling?" She tried to act casual but her heart was beating fast and she felt herself shaking
"Just fine now" Melvin said from the shadows.
There was a silence as they looked at each other in the moonlight. Although she still wore her green t-shirt and fatigue pants Tammy felt totally exposed. Like Melvin could see right through her. Her heart was pounding and her desires were building rapidly. She knew they shouldn't be left alone. If she wasn't careful she would throw herself at him. She squeezed her thighs together, sending a jolt of pleasure through her entire body.
She didn't know what to do and finally Melvin made the move they both wanted. He walked over and slid his arms around her waist. When he pressed his lips to hers she responded willingly and they kissed each other hard. Their tongues sparred in each other's mouths. He squeezed her ass, pulling her to him. She felt the large bulge in his shorts moving against her.
