I waited for him...
to explain to me why he had to be the one to go,
to fly the one-way mission,the one to sacrifice himself...to tell me why he couldn't ask anyone else to die,
why he couldn't let anyone else make the sacrifice he planned to make...to ask me to look after Porthos,
and to make sure Enterprise made it safely home...to take a last glance around our quarters,
see our bed still rumpled...to touch my cheek
and kiss me goodbyeand tell me he loved me
one last time....
Was he hoping...?
