Re: Parker
"You do have something, you know. It might not be something you even realize you need until the risk of not having it is there," Neal offered. "That's how it was for me anyway."
Neal nodded, not smiling. He knew only too well how leaving anybody behind wasn't pleasant. "Me too," he said. "Just the one." Alex would search for a bit, maybe, and the bureau would do a search but it would be for Peter. Mozzie was the one friend he did have that would search high and low.
Neal just hoped he would give up before he got killed for asking too many questions.
"If I keep talking to you, Peter's going to give me the third degree later and will be convinced we're both up to no good," he murmured, sipping at his drink. "It was nice talking to you though, Parker. I'm selfishly glad that you're around."
