Title: In the end
Sum: Jack reflects spoilers for "Do no harm"
Disclaimer: Nope, not mine.
Notes: First work of slash, not even sure if it counts as slash. But, oh well….please let me know what you think!
Jack stared at the limp and lifeless body. No tears fell from the doctor's eyes as he looked down at the younger man. Boone. So young, fresh and full of life, his life tragically cut short by whatever had happened in the jungle. He traced the wounds that marred a perfect face and felt his anger begin to boil. Why wasn't Locke there? Why did he lie when he knew that Boone's life was at stake? Was this not the man who trusted the older man more than anyone else?
He suffered too long. Too long, and Jack couldn't even save him. He let him go. He had lost one patient in his life, and letting her go was the hardest thing he ever did. But now, Boone, realizing that he couldn't be saved had pleaded with him. Jack, let me go. Those words rang over and over again in the doctor's head. Jack looked into his eyes….his bright eyes dulled from death. He placed his hands over then, closing them. Permanently. Jack would always remember his eyes.
"I'm sorry. I never got to tell you. I love you." he placed a small kiss on the young man's lips, the last and first time he ever would. The tears finally fell. He got up from his knees. With one last look, he turned and left to the beach. He still had to tell Shannon and the others. And then, he would find the man responsible for this.
FIN
Lemme know what you think!
