You're cold and I burn / Band Of Brothers Winnix

One shot {20} / Uncomfortable

Winters was frustrated.
He and Lew were dancing around each other for weeks now.

Since they got pretty close, kissed one time, and a period of holding hands when nobody watched them, suddenly Lew pulled back.

He completely backed off.
Spent his nights getting wasted. Rumour had it, he took girls with him every night. But nobody knew for sure.

Lew still came around to share information from the HQ. But he was all distant and cold. He avoided looking into Winters eyes

One day, Winters had enough.

He ordered Lew to his office.

Lew came but he looked like shit.
He had dark under the eyes circles, was unshaved and had messy hair.
It was clear that he was slightly drunk, still or again.

"You wanted to see me?"

Winters hid his shock about Lews appearance with a serious, business-expression and nodded.
"Take a seat!"

Lew sat down on the chair infront of Winters desk and watched the floor.
Winters sighed mentally and took a seat behind his desk.

"Any news from HQ?"
Lew shook his head.
"Are the men fine?"
"Yes."
"Are you alright?"
"What?"

Winters eyed him.
"I asked if you are alright?"
Nixon raised his head and looked him straight in the eye. For the first time in days. Winters still loved his eyes. Now they had a hard look.
"Why wouldnt I be alright?"

He was challenging him.
But Winters could play this game too.

"You tell me."
"What are you saying?"

Winters gritted his teeth. The only way to get something out of Nixon was a way he didnt like.

"I asked you a question Captain Nixon!"

Nixon stared at him. Then he stood up.
"I am fine Major Winters. If you excuse me, I have to be back at HQ!"

"Lew!!"

Winters stood up too.
What the hell was wrong??

But Nixon turned around and left.
