"Johnny, babe. You gotta stop doing this to yourself," Bruce whispered as he moved up close behind his lover. Gracefully, he draped himself around Johnny, pulling the lighter man close to him. "There was nothing you could do - no way for you to know."

Johnny turned within the strong arms and nuzzled against the face that represented home to him. "I know. I just feel so helpless. I wish I hadn't gotten involved in the first place."

"I did try to warn you. Stuff like that never ends up good." Brushing Johnny's golden hair off of the sad face, Bruce dropped a light kiss on the furrowed brow. "I knew from the beginning you were gonna be dragged down with it and I didn't want to see you hurting like this."

Bruce angled his body so that he could look into Johnny's tormented eyes and pulled the other man even closer. As much as it was tearing his beloved up inside, it was hurting him just as much - John's pain was his pain.

It was times like these that made Johnny so thankful that he'd found Bruce. Their lives were so entwined that they completed each other.

John hated how he was feeling because he didn't want Bruce to feel this, but he couldn't help it. Life could be so damn frustrating! "I know." He lowered his head, snuggling down more into the offered comfort. "It's just not fair!"

"No, it's not, but it's just the way things are. There's no rhyme or reason to it."

"Yeah, but this is me we're talking about. I should have seen it coming...I should have KNOWN and then I wouldn't have let myself get so hooked on it."

Bruce lifted the lowered head nd kissed both sides of Johnny's mouth, "Babe, you can't predict everything. There was just no way you could have known Medical Investigation was going to get cancelled!"

The End!
