Sweets, I can only hope that one day you know what a real partnership is.

Of all the hours of conversation he's had with his favorite team, of all the interesting, revealing comments, that's the one that pops into his head.

Sure, it resonates through his brain as he hugs Daisy goodbye, knowing that when (if?) he sees her again it'll be as colleagues, acquaintances, perhaps friends. They won't be together, theirs wasn't a real partnership.

But then he sees them say good bye. Sees the pain, the anguish, the heartbreak.

And he knows that he'll be seeing them again.

Not great but it's been bugging me.
