Walking By
(Drabble)

~ * ~


He hadn't been spying, more... following. Really.

Resting his hands on the steering wheel, his eyes fixed on a point several doors down.

They hadn't seen him, the years he spent in special ops assuring that.

He watched as Carter slowly got out of her car and walk to her door. He followed her there.

And kissed her. Disappeared inside.

A part of him felt pain. Jealousy.

Why couldn't it be him?

"So why do you leave these questions unanswered?"

Maybe it could be different.

Someday.

But that day would not come for a long while.

And he'd just have to live with it until that day came.

"And what did I do that you can't seem to want me?
Why do we lie here and whisper goodbyes?
Where can I go that your pictures won't haunt me?
What makes it so easy for you to be walking by?"
