Michelle wakes up in Tony's arms and holds him closer for a moment. She feels his breath against her skin, the way his head rests against hers, and she thinks that she's going to miss him.
She doesn't want to let him go, but she knows that she has to - knows that things have to happen in a certain order, in a certain way.
It's only about a month for me, that's not too long, I can be without him for a month...
He said he's leaving today. Which means that he's leaving. She doesn't let herself really think about the future.
She takes a breath, willing herself not to cry, because there's nothing to cry over. They have a future together, they just need to live through the next month apart. Jack is going back to certain death, compared to that, this is a minor sacrifice.
But she wishes that it didn't hurt so much.
