Author: Meghan Elizabeth
Series: DS9
Part: 6/7
Rating: PG
Codes: B/Vicki Ann, male and female non-canon

Disclaimer: Paramount just owns Bashir and the Dominion this time.
Everyone else is mine:-)
Archive: Not sure why you'd want to, but sure, just ask first.
Author's note: This is really just a writing
exercise to help me get back into writing (the muses have been away due
to personal problems). Consider it a preview or coming attraction of
the story I'm working on now in which Bashir helps a group of POWs while
confronting his own past in the Dominion camp. Nothing is given away to
spoil the full story and I believe the drabbles stand on their own.
Feedback should be sent to the usual place:

Time: Saturday's child has far to go.

"Time"

She had quite a way to go before she could forgive him. She was no stranger to pain, but he'd hurt her like no one else had before. That was due to the fact that she'd trusted him. Implicitly. And he'd betrayed that trust. Even if he did apologize and change, no amount of groveling could change the past.

She knew he was sorry. She knew he would do anything to take it back. But, she needed time to get over her anger. He needed time to deal his past. They both needed time. Time that felt like an eternity.
