SUMMARY: Early morning...

NOTES: This is my first at any fic that is both due South and 
slash related. It is 150 words, so I'm calling it a drabble 
and a half. I can write happier stories, and longer ones. Just 
not at 3am in the morning. Oh well. Hope you enjoy it. And I 
think the notes are longer than the story. Opps!

****************************************************************************

I watch the sun rise, through your window. Rays of light 
scatter around the room, odd shadows are cast, not all the 
light pass through your blinds.

Your hair looks like gold. I almost reach out to touch it, 
but then I might wake you. And the smile that you wear in 
your sleep would disappear. I would have to leave.

Why do I come here, every night? During the day, we are 
nothing more than partners, perhaps friends, but at night, 
when we touch... are we lovers?

What am I to you? Why do I not ask you?

Perhaps I will, now. Perhaps you'll say you love me.

But I won't. Because I love you.

I can live with the dream of you saying those words to me. I can't live
with the reality of your silence.

Before I leave, I consider reaching out, touching your gold... 

I leave.
