Title: Smoke and Mirrors
Rating: PG
Characters/Pairing: Abby/Connor- unrequited
Word Count: 122
Spoilers: None
Summary:  His love for her is unrequited, but he doesn't want it to be forever.
Notes: My first ever drabble, so that's why it's so rubbish and over 100 words. Oh well!

“Abby, I, I know this isn’t what you want to hear, and this isn’t the right place to say it, that’s why I’m going to keep it short.”

 

Brushing back his hair slightly as he spoke, Connor smiled.

 

“Ever since I met you, I loved you, really. Really, I did, and I know it’s going to sound strange, but you know I have, I’ve made it so public and er…”

 

He struggled, swallowing hard, thinking for the right words to say.

 

“Yeah… I love you, that’s pretty much it.”

 

And as he stepped backwards a little, he looked at himself in the mirror and the door behind him opened, Abby stepping through followed by a pleased looking Stephen.

 

Connor blinked. “Of course…”

Awwwww. Quite cute, though angsty. Your connor voice is good too. Densely packed emotionally for jsut the 100 words, good job.

Also *glomps you for writing Abby/Connor*

Aw, that was nice and angsty. And very good for your first attempt.

You now have a shiny new author tag! And if you could keep your future drabbles nearer 100 words that would be lovely. ;)
