She let her head rest in her shoulder, happy she had called him over, that she could spent a few precious minutes with her partner before she left him forever. Then the words that, despite the opposing feelings she had an hour before, sounded across the room and made a weight drop in her chest. "Attention, the 7:00am flight to D.C. Is now boarding" said a loud female voice. Natara didn't want to move, but knew she had to. Mal moved before she did, letting go. "This isn't a goodbye" he said "we'll make this work". Natara nodded, and knew. From then on, Mal wasn't her partner or even her friend anymore. Wordlessly, she knew she was about to be in a long distance relationship.
Mal Fallon
It was against anything he wanted, but he picked up Natara's suitcase while she grabbed her laptop bag. He walked her to the door that would lead outside to her plane, right to where the door she would soon walk through that would take her far away. He kissed her on the forehead, just as he had when they were undercover as a married couple. Only this time it was real. This time it was probably the last time he would do so for a long time. She boarded, and he swore he saw her shadowed form in the window, looking back at him. Then he was forced to turn away from her, to walk away as to not get run over by a plane.
