AN: I do not own any of the Characters. I also am going to spoil the preview for the season finale, this is just my opinion of what happens in the finale I do not know what really happens so I could be way off base. If you haven't seen the preview and do not want to be spoiled you do not want to read this story.
It shouldn't end like this, with her kneeling in the mud, hair matted, gun to her back. It shouldn't end like this, he didn't mind that they were taking him away, probably to be tortured and killed, better him than her, and yet, he didn't know if as soon as he boarded the chopper they wouldn't shoot her in the back. Hetty's words echoed back in his mind from earlier that week, 'tell her while you have the chance, you might be surprised by her response.' He doubted that he would be surprised by her response; after all they have been dancing around this issue for three years now.
Then he decided, with a gun to her back and armed guards standing next to him, urging him to the chopper. This may be his last opportunity, it may have slipped him by, and there wouldn't be another chance to tell her how he felt. Ignoring the guards at his side, he walked over, took her face in his hands and leaned over. Their lips brushed as her eyes drifted closed. He stared down, he wanted to memorize her face, and he couldn't close his eyes. She deepened the kiss, the first to initiate contact, it wasn't like that simple kiss they shared under cover last year. This one meant so much more. All of the emotion they had been holding in check for the last three years came rushing out in that kiss, and he knew she knew.
They broke apart and her eyes came open, no longer were they guarded, instead he saw the love and hope in them that he knew she had been hiding for the last three years. Breaking apart he allowed the guards to pull him to the chopper, and he said a silent prayer that they wouldn't shoot her. After all he could survive anything now, no matter what kind of torture they put him through he could survive, would survive, and he would get back to her, their love was worth the fight.
