Ben smiled and kissed her palm gently, "we had a great time, Meg. But don't regret us not ever being together, look at your beautiful boys you had."

Meg smiled, "Yeah. Two boys with two different fathers, a ruined marriage with a man old enough to be father...what's not to regret?" She asked softly, "I love my boys, I do. But Alex, God he made me so angry these past few days. He'd try and just as he's getting somewhere he'll back off completely."

Ben took her hands gently, "because you're not helping him." He said softly, "you can't sit there and hope he'll read your mind. Hell, Kara taught me that. You have to tell him, you have to sit and talk to him, stop edging around all these problems."

"I tried." She said softly, "I wanted him so much and I just wanted us to be happy and he didn't want any of it."

"You can't just flick a switch and be happy. You both have backgrounds that are effecting your relationship. Why won't you just sit and tell him everything?" Ben asked softly.

"What's there to tell him?" She asked, "He knows about Josh and he's read my military file."

Ben sighed and waved a hand slightly, "and what do you know about him?" He asked, "about that wife he had before you? About his past? Did you ever think he doesn't know how to be happy without thinking he's disrespecting his ex-wife's memory?"

Meg blinked slightly and looked at him for a few moments, "This is my fault." She said and blinked again a few times as she came to the realisation that made her heart drop.

"Maybe it is, maybe it's Alex's," Ben said softly. "You won't know if you keep running away from him."

Meg squeezed her eyes shut and looked downwards as she felt herself starting to cry, "He deserves someone better, someone true. How the hell can I keep him happy when he doesn't even want me around, Ben? I can't do this anymore. I want to go back."

Ben wrapped his arms around her and soothed her gently, "you can't leave, not now. You have too much here, honey." He said softly, "get a good nights sleep and go see him in the morning. If there's still a chance to work things out, wouldn't you rather take it?"

Meg sniffed slightly and nodded, "I want to be able to love him again. Like I did before. Why did he have to start pushing me away?" She asked and squeezed her eyes shut, "For so long..."

Ben kissed her forehead gently, "why did you let him?" He asked softly.

Meg blinked, "Screw you." She said pushed him away, getting up.
