I need to write something and since Invisible is *gasp* finished (well, okay, mostly... there's still tweaking and editing to do), I'm making a bigger dent on my drabble lists. :D They're all angsty, very angsty.
1 - #095 betrayal for
ficlets100 Ending It - PG-13
"I love you," he told me last night, but he was lying. If he loved me, he wouldn't sleep with Calleigh behind my back then turn around and pretend nothing's happened.
When Natalia mentioned they were sleeping together, I didn't believe it at first. Then I started to notice things, small things that told me what I'd been dreading - Natalia was right.
So instead of continuing to put up with his lies, I am going to end it. Tonight. When he comes over for dinner. I made my mind up last night, now if only my heart will cooperate.
2 - #055 lies for
ficlets100 Lies - PG
Lies. That's what their relationship thrived on. Lies and passion. It held the fragile remains of their sordid affair together and compelled them believe that they could make it work. But it never would.
"I hate you."
"I want you."
"I need you."
"I love you."
They couldn't remember who had said what, but it didn't matter. Sometimes it didn't hurt to lie... but most of the time, it did. But none hurt so much as the last. They both wished it were true, but knew it never would be. They couldn't love each other. Their relationship wasn't about love.
3 - #025 goodbye for
ficlets100 Farewell - PG
I couldn't save you; I didn't get there in time. When I saw your lifeless body lying bloodied on the cold floor of that trailer, I nearly lost it. What happened? Why didn't somebody get you out of there?
I couldn't go to the funeral, I'm sorry. I couldn't stand there and watch them bury another of my teammates. First Speed, then you.
I know we had our hard times, our disagreements, but I never wished this on you. I never wanted this to happen.
Anyway, it's been over a year now and I've finally come to tell you goodbye...
4 - #013 death for
ficlets100 ; 'alone' prompt
persikay gave me months ago...
Broken Promise - PG
I can feel you around the lab all the time. Your presence is stronger there than almost anywhere else. Of course I know you aren't really there, Eric. Calleigh caught me looking around for you once, asked me if I was alright. I told her I was fine, but ended up leaving work early anyway. It's been hard since you died. I have cried my eyes out wishing for you to come back, wondering why you would just leave me here. You told me you'd never leave, promised me. And now you're gone, and I am alone. I miss you.
