He looked up at the sky. It's a blue moon tonight. The second full moon of the month. They call it a blue moon. I wonder if you can see it? Is the sky in Chicago as clear as it is here? Would you even notice the moon if you did look up? Probably not, but I can wish, can't I?
No. Wishing gets you nothing. Action gets you what you want, what you need. How did Ray put it? Wish in one hand and piss in the other and see which gets full faster. Crude, but true, it seems. Fraser sighed. Time to get moving.
Instead of calling to the dogs, he looked up at the sky again. The moon did cast a certain blueish glow onto the snow tonight. As blue as he was feeling. No sense dwelling on it. He'd been a coward and now he was alone. Things were as they should be. He told himself that every day. He sighed again and called to the dogs.
After a week's patrolling, Benton Fraser was tired, in body and spirit. The sled moved quickly over the blue tinted snow toward a cold, empty cabin with a cold, empty bed. Tomorrow would bring another day without Ray. Sometimes life sucked.
