Days after his texting conversation with Alison, Pete held a silent vigil for it. A week later, he was in NYC on a case to find a man. It was his own style of bounty hunting, not that he would ever call it that, because he had extras to make it so not that way.
He was so close to marching up to Xavier's door and truly having it out with his former fiancee and see if there was going to be anything left in the debris. He was tired of this limbo. Tired of getting nasty little notes from her on his phone. Tired of it all. And the text exchange they had the other day proved that.
To top it off, the bar ran out of his favorite scotch. so, he couldn't even getting drunk the way he wanted. So, he was just angry now. After getting back from having a fag outside (the bar finally cracked down on that too), Pete came back and was met by the face of Arthur Centino on the telly.
"Bloody fucking hell..." he muttered. He knew the bloke would come out of the cracks someday, but he didn't quite expect him to be out there like this for all to see including..... "Alison..." he said weakly.
He sat down in his seat and watched the interview, getting most of it. He remembered their conversation years ago when he took the high road and told him to contact her. He was never going to be content knowing that she would want to be with Centino instead of him. He never heard about it. He figured ignorance was bliss.
But now... with everything that is going on... Shit. Should he be giving up now?
