The POVs of Pete and Myka during the season finale. Enjoy
Pete:
I've been having bad vibes today. They're the kind of vibe that means one and many things. I need to focus on the task at hand though; I push it to the back of my mind.
Myka:
Several times, the dull throbbing encases my abdomen, leaving me with the tedious and nerve-wracking task of calling the doctor's office over and over again. But now, he wants me to prepare myself for something I'm not ready to do. At the end of the week, I was going to have surgery done to remove the cancer. That in itself was going to be hard enough, but to make it even better, the surgery had been moved up to today.
Pete:
Whenever Myka argues with me, she is more beautiful then ever in her frenzied state. Sometimes I argue with her over pointless things just to watch her. This time, though she acted like her strong and confident self, I can plainly see that she is terrified. At times like this I want to badly to hold her. Simply hold her in my arms and never let go.
Myka:
I've become such a different person over the last four years. I was always so alone and different,; now I have four other people just as strange and lonely as I am. They are my family, and I would do anything to protect them. Even if it means concealing how bad my cancer is from Pete.
Pete:
I want Myka to have a cure so badly that I make myself believe there is one. Since no one else is in my head (probably), I'll admit it. I love her. Before, with Amanda and Kelly and all the others, I thought that was love. But my love for Myka is One Hundred times stronger. If I have to take my secret to the grave to protect her, I will. I love Myka Bering.
At the Warehouse as Myka is leaving...
"I don't want you to leave me, Myka!" cries Pete in anguish. The emotional pain is visible on his normally smiling face. "I have a thing about that." Myka walks over to him with a sad smile playing at her lips; if you looked into her grey eyes you would see that she is crying with him.
"I know you do." She grips his shoulders gently and looks into his wavering brown eyes. "I'm not going anywhere. Everything's going to be fine." She plants a whisper of a kiss on his forehead just as he had done earlier, gives a little wave, and turns away. As tears finally well up in her eyes, she thinks 'I have to be strong for Pete.' Pete. the realization dawns on her, and Pete turns around because she had absentmindedly called him. This realization shocks her yet shouldn't. Was it not evident? That she, Myka Ophelia Bering, has fallen in love with this wondrous man? She turns around and without words flings her arms around his neck and kisses him sweetly on the mouth. After this, she hugs him and finally leaves, Pete standing a there in mild confusion. But it was a good ending, better than the first one. To him it means that she still has hope left.
