Summary: A missing scene from 'Sticky Wicket' between Hawkeye and Trapper

'Sticky Wicket'

"Hawk?"

"Go away Trap."

The door swung open. Hawkeye sighed and turned over to face the wall as Trapper entered.

"You can't stay in here."

"Yes I can. Get out Trap. I don't want you here… why can't I get any peace?"

"Hawk, we're just worried about you. *I'm* worried about you. You can tell me if you missed something. Just don't beat yourself up over it."

"I don't think I missed anything. Just leave me alone, I don't want to talk."

His voice was frosty, and Trapper began to exit the tent, pausing as he reached the door.

"You know something Hawk? You're so stubborn sometimes. Let someone help you for once. I'll be back soon, okay?"

"No. Not okay. I just want to be left alone."

Hawkeye shut his eyes, and rolled so that he lay on his back. He felt a light kiss placed on his mouth, and opened his eyes to find a pair of concerned brown ones staring back at him.

"I'll be back soon."

"I told you. I want to be alone."

Trapper just smiled and left the tent. Hawkeye shut his eyes again, letting his mind wander back to the operation.
