“Well between General Prescott and General Blackthorn, I’ve been lectured enough.”

Lucas looked up. “Excuse me?”

“What?” Derek asked.

“Blackthorn? As in Brody Blackthorn?”

Derek nodded. “Yes, he’s the general who took over.”

Lucas sat back. “Well I’ll be damned, he put on general.”

Derek looked at Lucas and the talk with Blackthorn came to mind. “The man you said always chose his career - he wanted to work things out and you still walked away, didn’t you?”

Lucas mouth fell open. “How did you know that?”

“Because he told me,” Derek smiled at the look on Lucas’ face. “Well now, this is interesting. I got the distinct impression that General Brody Blackthorn is still in love with you.” Derek chuckled. “Is everyone gay?”

Lucas sat back in shock. “He said that?” He whispered.

“His exact words were: If you love this man, tell him, because if you don’t someone else will. Believe me when I say I know what it’s like to wait only to have it slip through my fingers, and once it’s gone you can’t get it back.” Derek sat back smiling. “So it was you.”

“How is he?” Lucas whispered.

“He’s sad, I could tell that right away. He was very cold when I met him.” Derek pulled out his wallet and looked around for a pen. “You have something to write with?”

“Um, yeah.” Lucas motioned to the drawer by the stove. “Junk drawer has pens.”

Derek grabbed a pen from the drawer and took out one of his business cards. He wrote his old office number down for Lucas as well as Blackthorn’s cell phone number. “The first number is my old office number, Blackthorn occupies that now. The second number is his cell phone number and he has it on all the time.” Derek looked at Lucas inspecting the card. “Do you still have feelings for him?”

Lucas looked up. “I…I have tried to put him out of my head. I thought the only man I’d ever love would be James. I met Brody on assignment and we hit it off right away. He was still rising in the ranks and taking mission after mission. We hardly saw each other, I finally told him I couldn’t live like that. I only saw him sparingly and it was killing me when I didn’t hear from him for weeks at a time. The unit he was in was incommunicado for over a month and I just couldn’t do it anymore. I broke it off. Six months later he came to me and asked me to work things out. He said things would change. I just couldn’t do it anymore.” Lucas sighed sadly. “But I never forgot about him.”
