Subject: The place was safer now..cops paroling..and no one was ever in this building, except her.

She came here every so often, walking the halls, remembering the night. Now she was sitting in the room where it had all taken place, her knees curled to her chest. She was done crying, now she was just staring off blankely. How could this happen, he was supposed to be gone, she was supposed to be able to move on..and yet she was stuck here, in the past, with ghosts that had come alive.

(He'd taken his police issue glock out of his back pocket and stowed it in the bike, it didnt seem right to bring it here. His soft footfalls carried him into the place he'd saught peace more than once, it was the place that had shown him in a flash of painful memory how much he really loved Sky. His left boot was untied, and as he knelt to tie it, he felt her presence, a trained response to freeze emerged.) (NT) -- Nikolai, 07:29:50 05/04/02 Sat
- The wood was stained where her blood had soaked in, and her eyes were trained on that until she heard the footsteps. She moved quickly against the wall, her gaze hard. "Who's there?" (NT) -- Sky, 07:31:18 05/04/02 Sat
(He raised, flattening against the wall where she couldnt see him around the corner. Absolutely silent, not even the best agent would know he was there.) (NT) -- Niko, 07:33:55 05/04/02 Sat
- Her brow furrows, reaching for her purse slowly and pulling out the small .9 keeping it pointed straight ahead of her and level. "Don't play with me damnit." (NT) -- Sky, 07:35:39 05/04/02 Sat
(He frowns, keeping his breath intake slow as to not make a sound.. why was she here? He was biding his time, knowing she would have that damn gun, and not about to get his ass shot again. When she got close enoughhe would move.) (NT) -- Niko, 07:42:10 05/04/02 Sat
- She stepped out, swinging back so that she was facing down the hallway, her eyes adjusting slowly to the darkness of the hallway. (NT) -- Sky, 07:43:17 05/04/02 Sat
(His hand snaked out and grabbed her, her back to his chest, his hands against hers, the gun straight out - no one was getting hurt, except, perhaps, for his labido.) (NT) -- Niko, 07:45:24 05/04/02 Sat
- Except for the fact that she hadn't realized it was him yet. With a growl she lands a boot clad heel on his foot, using the moment to slam her elbow into his ribs, hard. (NT) -- Sky, 07:46:56 05/04/02 Sat
(He cursed himself and her in spanish, his eyes closing as he doubled over, his breath knocked out of him. Several choice phrases came out in spanish, a few words she would know mixed in.) (NT) -- Niko, 07:51:25 05/04/02 Sat
- She drops the gun, running a hand over her hair as the other went around her ribs. "Fucken...Niko? What the hell were you doing??" (NT) -- Sky, 07:53:02 05/04/02 Sat
(Out of danger, he skidded down the wall to sit.) Same to you, Amante. (He utters, fingering his side, she'd been working on her defense, he would have gotten her before, now she got him - it hurt in more ways than just the bruises.) (NT) -- Niko, 07:56:43 05/04/02 Sat
- She kneeled beside him, her hand moving his arm. "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was you..." Her defense may have strengthed, but emotionally, she was broken now. "Are you ok?" (NT) -- Sky, 08:00:00 05/04/02 Sat
(He smiled at her.) You pack a punch there, skylar. (He swallowed, not showing exactly how much she'd hurt him, though he knew the bruises were deep on his side.) (NT) -- Niko, 08:01:22 05/04/02 Sat
- His smile took her breath away. "I..yeah..they've been working me pretty hard." She looked away, swallowing. (NT) -- Sky, 08:02:56 05/04/02 Sat
(He ached, and it wasnt superficial ache, it was the one he had suffered with his entire duty abroad.) I can tell. (He looks down at his hands, cursing softly before shifting his weight, he should get out of there.. it was hard just being near her.) (NT) -- Niko, 08:04:34 05/04/02 Sat
- "So you heard I got back with the agency huh?" She bites her lip. "I got my own place...closer to base...." She felt she needed to make it clear to him she lived alone. (NT) -- Sky, 08:06:05 05/04/02 Sat
(He nods, unable to control himself so close to her and so needing her. Raising to his feet, he paced to the corner, the scene as eerie as the day she'd been shot.) I...thought I should take my leave here for a reason.. (He felt he needed to make that clear to her.) (NT) -- Niko, 08:07:54 05/04/02 Sat
- The little Dobe puppy was growling at his feet, before he yipped playfully, she had gotten the pup from one of Rico's dog's litters. "Why?" She wanted to hear it from him. (NT) -- Sky, 08:10:25 05/04/02 Sat
(He only glanced, didnt move.) I thought some people here might need me. (He shrugs.) But loose ends have a way of tying themselves up. (Though the new knots were never as strong as the one either strand had originally come from.) (NT) -- Niko, 08:12:25 05/04/02 Sat
- She swallowed. "I shouldn't have to feel guilty about dating someone else, but I do..." She bites her lip, not looking at him, still sitting on the floor, looking down the hall with dead eyes. "I thought you were gone Niko. For good." (NT) -- Sky, 08:14:14 05/04/02 Sat
(He shrugs.) I never thought you would have so much doubt in me.. I thought what we had was stronger than that. (He was leaning heavily on the window frame, as if to support himself.) (NT) -- Niko, 08:16:43 05/04/02 Sat
- She dropped her head into her hands. "I thought it was to, until you left on some other adrenaline rush." Her eyes close. "There was no word, your parents didn't hear from you much, and I definatly didn't hear anything..." She pauses for a long moment. "We just started dating..I don't even know if you would call it that..." (NT) -- Sky, 08:20:05 05/04/02 Sat
(He shrugs.) It's not my place to fight. I had to see if things would work.. and so much was going on before I left. (He shrugs again.) I was wrong to leave, but I cant take it back now, and I didnt have a choice then. (NT) -- Niko, 08:23:50 05/04/02 Sat
- She falls silent, her head against her knee's, curled into a tight ball. There was nothing she could say that would take away the pain, the confusion. How could you be falling for one guy, when another still held your heart in his hands? (NT) -- Sky, 08:26:23 05/04/02 Sat
(His fist hit the wall near the window in a solid and loud thud. Both hands through his hair as he gazed at his bike.. his escape.) I came back for you. (NT) -- Niko, 08:27:45 05/04/02 Sat
- She winces slightly at the sound, letting out a soft breath. "I don't know what to do Niko." She shakes her head. "I know what I want to do, but I don't know what the right thing to do is..." (NT) -- Sky, 08:29:54 05/04/02 Sat
(He turns his head, closing his eyes for a moment.) What do you want to do Sky. (He knew what he wanted to, but it seemed she had given up on him.) (NT) -- Niko, 08:32:06 05/04/02 Sat
- Her eyes were still closed. "I want to fall in your arms and run away from everything here." (NT) -- Sky, 08:33:22 05/04/02 Sat
(He swallowed, hard.) I want to take you away from here, where nothing but time itself matters. (NT) -- Niko, 08:34:46 05/04/02 Sat
- Her voice was muffled. "But we can't do that. I have the agency, you have JAG...." and she had her own jag now, although her emotions were cheating on him. (NT) -- Sky, 08:36:03 05/04/02 Sat
(He sighs.) I dont have anything I want anymore. (He'd made such a big deal out of JAG, left because he didnt know who he was - the thing with hs dad had screwed him up inside - and the pain of her having to have the abortion had scared him out of staying. Things happen.) I'd always dreamed of coming back to you waiting for me. (NT) -- Niko, 08:38:17 05/04/02 Sat
- "I waited...for a long time, I didn't leave my appointment for work." She smirks lightly. "I'm under Sullivan again, so I didn't feel like leaving most of the time...he made sure to keep me on the high risk assignment list too." She pauses a gain. "I'm sorry Niko." (NT) -- Sky, 08:40:44 05/04/02 Sat
(He wanted his life back, he wanted the pain and the fear to leave, and most of all - for her to have faith in him again.) I wanted to take you with me, Sky. I wanted us to get married and move away from here. (NT) -- Niko, 08:43:22 05/04/02 Sat
- She was silent for a long moment, before her hoarse voice was heard. "Why didn't you Niko? Why did you just run away?" (NT) -- Sky, 08:45:03 05/04/02 Sat
(He cursed himself in spanish, then in english.) Because I didnt have a choice, and I didnt know i fyou were ready for that.. I was afriad to lose you. (NT) -- Niko, 08:48:53 05/04/02 Sat
- "And we ended up both losing..." She lifts her head slowly, green eyes shining lightly, pain etching her young face. "I missed you so much Niko." (NT) -- Sky, 08:50:28 05/04/02 Sat
(He was eyeing her back, his eyes mirroring her pain.) I came back for you Sky. (He repeats it.) (NT) -- Niko, 08:52:14 05/04/02 Sat
- He was breaking her heart. "But I can't go Niko, and you can't stay...so what do we do?" (NT) -- Sky, 08:53:09 05/04/02 Sat
(He swallows.) I have no plans, Skylar. I can stay or I can go. (He had discovered that he did need her like that.) (NT) -- Niko, 08:54:12 05/04/02 Sat
- She mimics in action, swallowing, running a hand through tangled blonde curls. "You...you might stay here?" (NT) -- Sky, 08:57:36 05/04/02 Sat
(He nods.) If I have a reason to. I wont torture myself. (NT) -- Niko, 08:58:36 05/04/02 Sat
- Her eyes close again. "I can't rush back into this Niko, You have to give me time if you want this." (NT) -- Sky, 08:59:30 05/04/02 Sat
(He nods, though his stance and his eyes showed he wouldnt wait long, he needed her now.) (NT) -- Niko, 09:00:39 05/04/02 Sat
- Her voice was soft. "We were best friends when we got together last time, and thats what made it so special...We need to be friends again.." She paused. "I have things I need to figure out." Jag mainly. (NT) -- Sky, 09:02:07 05/04/02 Sat
(He nodded.. just so long as she would be in his arms soon, he was struggling to stay where he was.) I'll be waiting. (NT) -- Niko, 09:03:33 05/04/02 Sat
