A/N: Okay, so this sort of sucks, but I wrote it in like thirty seconds. The italicized is what's spoken, and the normal caps is what is really felt between them. The bold is an interruption by someone else. Enjoy.


Good morning.

I dreamt about you last night until it became a nightmare.

How are you?

Could you possibly imagine the things I'm feeling right now?

You look tired.

I just want to hold you.

I just need some coffee.

I just want you to hold me.

Is the case report on my desk?

I can remember your skin against mine.

I finished it this morning.

I wish you could see the way you look to me.

I heard about the divorce.

Tell me you love me.

Marie said it was for the best.

I love you.

How are you holding up?

Dear God, just don't look away from me.

I'll manage.

Dear God, just don't look away from me.

Trial starts in half an hour, Jack. You're on the stand today. Don't screw it up.

What's going on?

Don't leave me.

The Heinessy Trial. I'm being tried for perjury.

I'll say anything to feel your fingertips against my cheek.

Do you want me to come?

Let's get away from here.

No, you better not.

When can we leave?

I should go, then. I've got to handle PR at the station for the case.

I'm already there.

What? Oh, yeah. I'll see you later.

Don't let go yet. Stay with me.

Take care, Jack.

Be here when I get back.

Thanks.

Damn.
