TITLE: The One
STATUS: new, complete
DISCLAIMER: Jim, Blair, and all things Sentinel belong to Pet Fly Productions and
UPN. I am infringing on their copyright by writing this story, but I don't really care.
DISCLAIMER 2: I took some of the dialogue in this story directly out of the episode
"Love Kills." That dialogue belongs to the writers of the episode, and not to me.
WARNINGS: This is a slash story. Therefore, if you have a problem with
homosexuality, skip this story.
SPOILERS: For "Love Kills."
NOTES: Just a little drabble that I wrote; it's a little over 100 words, but close
enough. It hasn't been beta'd or anything, so please be kind.
"The One"
"Ever had one of those times, you were with a woman, you know, if things had
just turned out differently, she could have been the one?"
"No, but it sounds special."
Living with a Sentinel has improved my obfuscation skills; I do it easily now,
without thinking, without reacting to it on the surface -- Jim would have caught it,
otherwise. Or maybe he was just too wrapped up in himself to notice, I don't know.
I hate irony. It belongs to the realm of fiction -- novels, movies, that sort of
thing. It shouldn't show up in my life. Or, at least, it shouldn't hurt this much when it
does.
A woman? No, Jim, not a woman.
"If things had turned out differently." I wish . . . . No. Get real, Sandburg. If
wishes were horses, beggars would ride.
But still, sometimes -- especially moments like this -- I can't help but think
about it, and wonder. In another time and place, maybe. Another world.
Oh, Jim. My special one.
THE END
