A/N: I don't own anything.

I'm on fictionpress more than fanfic. :D So I haven't done fanfics for a long time. But Covert Affairs? Man, oh man. I love the show. Sorry for the shortness. I just wrote this because...

God, how he hated the man Annie loved now.

The other man was too skinny. Too pale. The guy couldn't even see her.

But he knew it was just his jealousy talking.

After all, he should be happy for her.

Auggie was healthier for her. Auggie won't break her heart.

And Ben knew. Even if it hurts now, even if it'll hurt forever, her happiness was worth it.
