Sep. 27th, 2004 08:40 pmIt is a very very long time since I posted a can't-sleep-at-one-in-the-morning drabble. Yet here one is. Sports Night, Dan/Natalie (
maggis I can hear you from here and I'm not amused) for the
sn100 Paul Simon challenge.
Learn How To Fall
Dan isn’t a guy who has trouble getting dates.
Where he runs into trouble is when it comes to long-term relationships – so much so that he’s reached the age of thirty without ever being in love.
His mother has taken to soft reproaches and sighs, wishing for grandchildren. Abby mutters something about commitment issues. Casey just rolls his eyes, offering his expert advice.
“It’s easy Danny… all you’ve gotta do is learn how to fall.”
He’s trying to be helpful, but Dan doesn’t tell him that falling’s not the problem.
Not when looking at Natalie makes him want to fly.
