AN: Sorry for all the short-ish fics ... I've got big plans for the next few letters, I swear!
Sometimes I think it would be nice to just up and leave. To be able to forget everything I've seen in this job.
To never have to face another murder, another rape, another death. I'd love to be able to forget the pain I see every day.
It would be really nice to see a decent side of the human race. To not have to see the anger or the sadness or the hate that seems to ooze from this job.
But then, I remember her. My one relief. The one person I look forward to seeing every day. The one tower of strength that keeps me going. The way she comes to check on me after a hard case, the way her golden hair hangs around her face like a halo, the way she says my name ... these are the things that make me live again. That make me capable of love in a world that seems so cold.
Sometimes I think it would be nice to just up and leave. To be able to forget everything I've seen in this job.
But then I would have to forget her.
END
