A/N: I don't know, I get paranoid that I'm losing touch with Ashes To Ashes when really it's a case of I write too much. So I'm having a break, not from writing obviously otherwise this would be a fail. I'm breaking from long stories and having a day (or however long this last) of drabbles.

Prompt #399 from LiveJournals writers_choice

Title: 'When It Rains, It Pours' stolen from 30 Rock 5.2 ...We're in the midst of a love affair, it's intense.


Contact

It's all about the accidental contact. Nonchalantly touching Alex's knee when he was changing gears. He lived for the accidently on purpose.
It was the longest relationship he'd had with a woman since the wife left and it didn't go beyond the brushing of fingers as he passed her a tumbler of whiskey, the burning look they shared over the glass.

It's all gone now. She's Gone. There's no saving her, no accidently touching her.
It is breaking his heart. She's in heaven, as far as far away can be.

One more lost soul and he's done. The Pub waits.
