Just a little something I thought of while listening to music.
He doesn't understand it.
Why him?
Out of all the men in Toronto, why did she pick him.
Ya, of course they have a history, a past.
But why does it have to be him?
Couldn't she pick a guy with a boring job, someone he would never have the chance to running into while on the job.
Someone who wouldn't be called in when one of them got hurt during a call.
No, that would be too easy.
Instead she picks the paramedic named Steve.
A paramedic.
What not smart enough to be a doctor?
God he hates the name Steve.
Steve, who knew her when she was a teenage.
Steve, who, from what he got from the others, has heard her sing.
God he wishes she would have sung for him. And not just the snippets he heard when she was in the shower.
He blames it on the job, and he knows there was really no other option.
They live for their jobs, and the team is their family.
As much as he wants her, he can't give up this family.
They're too important to him. They brought him back.
Still, he doesn't have to be happy about it.
A part of him is happy that she was able to move on with her life.
That part of him just wants to see her happy.
Its a very small part of him.
The rest of him is angry and jealous and bitter.
He knows he has no right to be.
But she was, no is, no will always be HIS sexy sniper chick.
There is no doubt in his mind that she belongs to him.
Not that he would ever voice this out loud.
If she knew, she would snipe his ass.
No warning.
He knows that he belongs to her.
He doesn't want to belong to anyone else.
Just her.
She was it for him.
He just has to be patient.
You would think he'd be good at being patient.
He wasn't.
So he'll wait.
Wait until he can lead his own team.
Wait till they can be together again.
Wait till she realizes that Steve, he really does hate that name, isn't the guy for her.
And he'll try to understand.
Why him?
Reviews are always welcomed.
