"There's someone else, isn't there?" Mike Branton asked Elizabeth Weir's retreating back.
Stopping dead in her tracks, Elizabeth pivoted to face him, a denial already visibly forming on her lips.
She hesitated however, something making her reconsider her immediate response. Perhaps, she had decided he at least deserved better than a lie.
"Yes," she said simply before turning and hurrying away.
Three days later, Mike ran into John Sheppard as the latter was exiting the gym.
"You're a lucky man, you know," Mike told him.
For a second, Sheppard looked confused before understanding lit his face.
"I know," he replied.
