Prompt #23: Connection...
Title: Remembrance...
Pairing/Characters: Colby/OFC, Don, David
Rating: PG-13
Summary: A reunion of sorts, but did she remember?
Word Count: 200
Spoilers: none in this one
Notes/Warnings: Part 5/33 in The Sparkling Series. Again, I know it's tricky territory presenting OFCs or OMCs - but since Colby doesn't really have a love interest in the show - I'll ask your forgiveness. I tried hard to put this in 100 words, but the situation wouldn't let me. Comments and criticisms are always welcome. (Many thanks to my beta, the lovely and wonderful julietm...MWAH!)
Disclaimer: If you recognize it, regrettably - it's not mine.
Colby watched nervously as Don made the introductions. He cast a glance to David. Did he remember her from that night at the bar?
If he did, he gave no indication of it as he stepped forward to shake her hand.
Colby was last to be introduced. He shifted his weight uncomfortably, wondering if there would be an awkward moment of recognition.
She cast him a casual smile, extending her hand. “It’s a pleasure to meet you,” she spoke as coolly to him as she had to every one else.
Where was the liquid warmth in her voice? That fire in her eyes? If she remembered him, she gave nothing away… until he touched her hand.
Flashes of that night were in her eyes as he looked at her. She saw as he did… her chest heaving with her quickened breath, his own accelerated breathing heavy in her ear as he nipped at her, the sweat-slicked skin of lovers slipping about as heated silk met rigid yearning.
A connection… then… now… broken as she pulled her hand away. She straightened her shoulders as both hoped no one else noticed the crackles of electricity cutting through the air, sparks flying everywhere…
