The Advent Drabbles
by Slantedlight

7th December


There was something he should have done that hadn't been done, and Doyle tossed and turned in bed, worried over it. It wasn't a big thing, was something small - so small that Cavendish would probably never notice, Darby wouldn't blink.

But he knew.

He just didn't know what it was. He knew his cover backwards, knew Duncan from miserable childhood to villainous twenty-ninth birthday. He knew the place, the time, the plan. Everything was ready.

He turned over again.

He wondered what Bodie had been doing today, what had been behind Door Seven. He wondered if Bodie had laughed.

I hope we're going to find out what he'd forgotten otherwise worrying about it will keep me awake!!

I didn't do this one very well, did I? He'd not really forgotten anything, he just felt like he had cos he'd not looked at the advent calendar with Bodie... *g*
