Note: Thanks for the lovely reviews. Yes, I am still going with this. To be honest, I don't know when it's going to end. I've got 3 more drabble challenges to go at it stands and some more plots for longer stories all linked in with this, so it could go on for quite some time. I'll be sure to put a note in to tell you when I'm done with it.

Title : Goodbye

Fandom: Hellsing

Pairing: Seras/Integra

Words: 347

Challenge: #6 Goodbye

I want to stay here forever, locked in her warm embrace. I know it's silly, I know I need to go soon, I've been here for nearly 2 hours already, but still, I want to sat here with her. Is that so wrong, after we've been apart so long?

I know that she feels I'm going to have to leave soon too. She's tensed up a little, become less affectionate. She still hasn't said a word to me and it worries me a little but feeling her here, holding me, kissing me, that's more then enough. She's still alive, she's still human and she still wants me.

But, it's time I went. I'd love to stay here with her forever but I can't. I need to go before I'm found out, that would be a disaster. I need to tell Walter I found her…

But I want to stay so badly.

Slowly, I push myself up from where I've been lying, beside her with my head just under her breasts. She looks at me, and again, I want to do anything but leave her. I don't have a choice though. I have to go some time and if I don't go now I might never leave.

"You're going," she says. It's the first thing she's said to me all day and it seems so sad. I just nod at her and she sighs, sitting up. I move to sit next to her, still not wanting to leave her. I just wish I could stay with her forever.

"Well…" She's trying to be tough, I know it. Well, I want to believe it. I don't want to let myself believe that she really doesn't care that I'm leaving again. "Goodbye."

"No," I say softly. She looks at me as if I've gone mad, maybe I have. "Not goodbye, just…'till next time…"

"…Untill next time," she says, still a little cold, but seeming to relax a little. I lean forward and kiss her again, briefly, then I leave, not wanting to prolong my departure more then I have to.
