Disclaimer: What, you think I own them? Oh, what a wonderful world that would be. Muahahaha... Sadly, no, that world is only in my mind. And you know what, I like it here!

Notes: It's the wonderful Czech's POV on a certain favorite couple of mine. No real spoilers, except for what TPTB should be doing with these two!


They banter again; him believing he knows all, which is usually true. She argues, thinking of another way, anything else. He shakes his head, gesturing vigorously that there is no other way. She accepts and looks to him to do what needs to be done.

Later, she and I walk together through the hallways. I babble scientifically, trying to impress upon her the situation. She looks at me; but she doesn't see me, she sees him . She sees the man I can never be. And it is then that I know she will never be mine.

He rushes up to us then, breaking the moment, having reached a conclusion. They jog ahead; him speaking rapidly, her listening, trying to understand. I watch them go and silently wish them the best. The taste of bittersweet is more bitter than sweet. But I remember that I still have her friendship and that is enough.


Please, please review. Feedback is my chocolate, my oxygen, my coffee! In other words, it is greatly appreciated.
