__________________
Neal spent most of his day pretending to analyze cold case files and not staring up at Hughes’ office. What the hell did the old man mean, “There are things I can’t tell you. Peter can’t tell you.”
He closed the folder he was trying to work on, and found himself jotting down dates. The graduation date from Peter’s Harvard diploma, the year he started with the Bureau, his date of birth, the current date. Basic mathematics revealed something he should have realized a long time ago.
There were eleven years of Peter’s life that he knew nothing about. How did he miss this? It was staring at him in the face for nearly four years. Every time he walked into Peter’s office, everytime he saw the date on that damned diploma.
What did Peter do from the time he graduated high school to the time he started college? And more to the point, did he really want to know?
Yes. Most definitely yes, if it meant figuring out and stopping the people trying to kill him.
Neal tried to put away the hurt from last night’s brush off, he tried to concentrate on problem at hand. But he kept seeing Peter’s face, the second-by-second reactions when he told him about the explosives. It went from joy and pleasure to curiosity, concern and worry. And lastly, for the briefest of moments, fear. Then nothing. No anger - not even when Neal tried to tell Elizabeth about the danger they were in.
That son of a bitch! Neal all but exploded out of his chair. He played me. He wanted me out of there.
He needed to get back to the safe house, now. He had to see Peter.
FIN
Go to Get Back
