Author notes: I remain amazed by how much a person can say in only 100 words. I love drabble challenges. If you're familiar with "S.W.A.T" (the movie and book), then you know there's a very slashy pair in Brian and Jim. Brian leaves S.W.A.T. and L.A.P.D. after he and Jim have a big fight. (I won't say more for those who haven't seen the movie and might still want to...) Anyway, there's a ton of subtext there. Or so my husband and I believe! LOL.

~No Fairy Tale~

"Wait up, Brian! I'm coming with you!"

Brian stopped, pivoting to face a grinning Jim.

"Seriously?" Brian breathed.

"Yeah." Jim's dark eyes were dancing.

Brian opened his arms and Jim pressed close. They embraced, shared a kiss and both began to laugh. It was a joyous moment.

Brian shut then opened his eyes, staring wearily around him. There was no Jim anywhere in sight. He was walking away from the precinct alone; walking away from both S.W.A.T. and his partner.

"It was just a fairy tale," he whispered, shaking off the moment. There'd be no 'happily ever after' this time...
