One Last Time
by LittleKitten
~ * ~
The doorbell rang and he let the glass clink back to the table, its amber liquid swirling round, disturbed.
He pulled the door open, just as he had done for her every day.
One look at her rain soaked features, and he knew.
She knew the reason he had asked her to come.
"Carter."
Her eyes met his, and she nodded, understanding.
Moving closer, he brushed his hand over her cheek.
One last time.
A tear escaped, running through his fingers as he leaned in and kissed her.
One last time.
He forced a smile.
"Goodbye, Sir."
One last time.
"I know that I can't take this any more,
I can't take this any more.
Cuz I know that, someday, I'll see you
Walk out that door..."
