Disclaimer: Numb3rs does not belong to me in any way, shape, or form. This has not been beta'd, so I apologize for any glaring mistakes.
A/N: numb3rs100 Prompt 177: Enemy. This is part of my Carter!verse, but can stand alone.

When Dwayne had approached Colby on behalf of the Chinese while he was at Quantico, Colby wasn't sure what to do. In the end, Colby did what he had to. When the DOJ decided that Dwayne Carter had outlived his usefulness, it was Colby that convinced them that Dwayne still had contacts that they could exploit. Colby owed Dwayne that much, after all.

Colby had been happy to see Dwayne, but less than thrilled that it was because of a Chinese spy. When Colby confronted Dwayne at the harbor he was upset and angry. Colby was angry with Dwayne for slipping up, for getting caught, for making Colby the enemy. As he unbuttoned his shirt, revealing the hidden microphone, he could see that Dwayne felt all the same things. In the end, what hurt the most was that they both understood that Colby was only doing what he had to.

Comments are love.
