Life on Mars Drabbles

A series of unconnected drabbles written for prompts given at the LJ community Lifein1973. Various characters and pairings including SLASH. Ratings vary so i'm saying T to be safe.

10. A Stitch in Time

(Prompt: A stitch in time saves nine)

'Sam...'

'Go away Gene.'

'I can't do that Sammy. Not unless you come away from the edge.'

'This is wrong Gene. It's all so wrong.'

'I know Sam.'

'You don't know. You don't understand.'

'Then explain it to me.'

'He was my Dad and he's dead now because I killed him.'

'You saved us all, Sam. He was going to kill all of us.'

'But it's all my fault. I caused all this.'

'Sammy, come away from the edge.'

Sam stepped back and Gene wrapped his arms around him as Sam sobbed.

'It's ok, Sam. It's going to be ok.'
