Chapter Five:

She looked into his eyes and saw something she had never seen before. Tears. Hannibal Lecter, the serial killer and cannibal did not cry... What was he crying about anyway? He had nothing to worry about, she wasn't going to turn him over to the F.B.I he knew that long ago.

"Good evening Clarice." The Dr. said with the faint sound of longing in his voice.
"Good evening Dr. Lecter."
She searched his eyes and saw something that disturbed her...
"Dr. why are you crying?"
He looked away for a second, knowing that he was showing vulnerability, and that was not something he wanted her to see.
"Clarice...you know I've always been honest with you, but for now, I can not answer that question."
"Why not..."
"You know why Clarice. You just want it verbalized."
"Dr. Lecter...are you crying because you love me...or because you can't have me?"
He looked at her and sat back stood up from the bench, "Both Clarice. I love you, and I can't have you. I miss you terribly, and I want to shoot myself because of it! I'm not supposed to act this way Clarice, I can normally cut myself off from everything, yet this struck something that I can not let go of! I can't explain it Clarice...I just can't..." he trailed off.
He looked down and felt Clarice move closer to him and embrace him in a hug. She whispered in his ear, "I knew you would never leave me...I just knew it..."
