character/pairing: nate
rating: pg
author's notes/warnings: drabble twenty-two?

Nate was used to running with his father on Sundays, rain or shine (never snow) - it felt wrong without him. At the end before turning home, Nate caught his breath and hoped like Hell his father was having a ball in Dominica or Puerto Rico - wherever the fuck he was - on a warm beach while Nate was in wet Manhattan, breath smoking out before him in cold puffs. Swallowing hard and bitter, he pushed himself hard on the way home, hoping the acid burn in his legs and lungs could replace the pain of his father leaving.
