Peace between two fires

Major Carter hurried the halls of the SGC facility. Why she was running, she couldn't have told you, all she knew, was that he was dead. A man that she knew loved her, maybe not completely, yet obviously had been infatuated with her, from the moment their lonely eyes met. She could never be with him for the reason she feared the most, she cared for more than one person. "Carter!"
Sam stopped to see her Commanding officer not more than 10 feet of her. Her eyes were still swollen from the rush of tears trying to break through the cracking surface. "Are you okay?"

"You lost a man you loved, of course you're not okay." "Know I didn't...I mean, I care-cared about him, but he's not the man I love." "You know, He might still be ali- Wait, you don't, love him?" Her voice quite and unsure lingered before answering. "...No..." "Who do you love Carter?" His mind was unaware of the question which escaped from his lips, yet heart encourage it, seeking a solid and substantial answer. Suddenly, his attention focused on her answer, his eyes were praying that she'd answer accordingly. Instead she stared at his eyes for a second; so dark and sorrowful, that she lost herself in them for a brief moment. She took his hand that had resorted to cupping the side of her face, a placed it on her lips, gently placing a kiss on his fingertips, and then placing his fingertips to his lips, and leaving him, stiff and frozen in reaction, she walked into the elevator..........leaving the man that she loved.............
