TM #315 - Jingle
Dec. 26th, 2009 06:47 pmChristmas Eve was not supposed to be a nightmarish day. It was supposed to be a day spent with loved ones. But last Christmas Eve, Fulcrum denied Chuck his peaceful holiday by holding everyone he cared about hostage.
Of course, Chuck and his handlers didn't know right away this was a Fulcrum agent. For some time, they thought he was just a down on his luck guy who snapped after being let go from his job. That was a nightmare enough. Chuck didn't know if he or those he cared about would make it out alive.
He decided to give Sarah her present early - a charm bracelet that was once his mother's. She thought she didn't deserve such a gift, but Chuck insisted. He gently placed it on her wrist, the charms making a faint jingle as he did so.
In that moment, it seemed like Sarah wasn't just his handler. In that moment, she was his girlfriend.
That moment, sadly, was a fleeting one.
