Hey everyone, hope you like this shortie.
I don't own Nikita and the rest.
I'm not good enough for you...
You're giving up...
Not giving up, accepting...
No difference when you're leaving me...
One year ago today. One year of loneliness, of pain and longing. One year of trying to forget, struggling to remember what it felt, how he felt when he held her. She could still hear his voice... She had been strong, she could be strong. Until she couldn't anymore, and then he was there.
Owen.
He'd been her friend, her confidant, the one she turned to when she couldn's sleep. She'd let him hold her as she cried. And he had, without ever saying anything. She loved him for it, but not enough, not like him. Never like him.
Somewhere inside she knew he'd return, that he couldn't stay away even if he wanted too. She knew it like she knew her own heart, and then one day he was there. Owen wasn't happy, she was though, but a part of her felt betrayed. He'd left for a year, a whole year. It hurt, and she hated him for it.
She refuses to talk to him, he talks anyway. She pretends not to listen, but the words she's been wanting to hear all year seep through her defences and she's had enough, she tells him that it's not enough that he's left her so many times now that there's barely anything left of her heart to even beat.
The stubborn tilt to her chin tells him all he needs to know. She wants him to beg, and she knows he won't. It's not stubborness or even ego, it's just a fact. Michael dosen't beg for anything, not anymore.
They stare silently at each other from across the room, wondering who will give in, who will leave, who will end this thing they've been craving so long that it seems like it's always been a part of their bones. They both know that it's for real now, they've been apart for a year, they won't take another year, another goodbye, this time it's for good.
Not really happy with this, but I'm trying to get some inspiration back. So I thought I should ask, I'll write another chapter to this one, and you'll decide what happens. Want Nikita or Michael to make the move to forgiveness (and probably sex knowing me lol)? Who will be the one to give in?
