Artemis read the note on his table.
He looked at Alex and Alex looked back. What was this sensation?
The moment was forgotten and they focused at Butler and Alan Blunt's heated discussion.
It was nothing.
After all, I love you really doesn't mean a thing.

"What do you want now?" Alex asked feeling greatly annoyed.
Artemis' eyes flickered.
"Nothing."
"Nothing?" a cocky smile appeared on the spy's handsome face.
"Yes," Artemis replied sadly.

"I'm back."
Artemis looked up from his book and tried to hide the disappointment in his eyes.
Alex noticed.
"I'm sorry."
"I know."
---
Artemis was alone.
"But you've got me," Alex said with vigour.
He'd never seen such a darkness in the other's eyes.
"I can't trust you," Artemis said bitterly, and Alex knew he was right.
