NAME: Gold AUTHOR: Krystyne PAIRING: Fraser/Kowalski RATING: PG FEEDBACK: Always. E-mail me at spiritheaven@yahoo.com. DISCLAIMERS: Standard disclaimers. The characters of due South belong to Alliance and Paul Haggis. I am not earning anything from this story. However, this story is my own. Do not archive anywhere apart from Hexwood without express permission of the author. Story archived at Spirit's Heavens (http://www.spiritheaven.free-online.co.uk/) SPOILERS: None 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. ************************************************************************** ** Thank you for reading.
