Insomnia = drabble

Rating: PG

Summary: Harper watches his Captain.
Disclaimer: this is fiction, I did not create these characters, they belong to Bernard Cornwell, I only borrowed them to make this drabble.
Feedback: welcomed and appreciated
Note: my first official Sharpe drabble!

Sergeants are supposed to keep a good eye on their officers, and I’m a fine bastard of a Sergeant, and so I watch mine like a hawk, though he hardly notices it.

He’s a rare one, my Captain, always running around trying to get himself killed, always full of piss and recklessness, unsatisfied until he’s riled up over some fool woman. The man needs someone to shake some sense into him. Desperately needs someone to lay hands on him and… oh, but if I tried that, he’d murder me for sure.

Aye, I watch him, and he doesn’t even notice.

I love Harper and Sharpe. This was an excellent drabble!!

Thanks so much for it.

(I sincerely hope there will be many more from you!!)

Thank you! I hope that there will be more Sharpe/Harper. I haven't watched the movies or read the books in a while, though that would be a good excuse to go find some inspiration for fic. It's really no hardship at all watching Sean in that green uniform, ;)

Thanks for reading!
