A/N: For the P100 challenge 272: Keeping Secrets. Part of my Making An Impression drabble series and follows The Worst Day In Connor Temple's Life. Thanks go to the ever wonderful Fred for casting her eyes over it for me, cheers.


Matt wondered if the old custom of crossing your fingers for luck was based on fact. He crossed them anyway.

Even before Connor had collapsed when he'd heard the news, he wouldn't have been Matt's first choice for this mission. The younger man had blurted out the truth about the operation before and someone had died; who knew what he'd do in his grief.

Matt sighed, knowing Connor was their only chance for success and he deserved to know the truth – whether James was really dead and if it was Burton's fault.

This was one mission he'd keep secret.

Matt keeping secrets again? He should be careful with those. Poor Connor though, I want to scoop him up and wrap him in cotton wool.

[anyaheart.livejournal.com]

Matt needed to be careful with this secret.

And poor Connor too *hugs him*

[eriah211.livejournal.com]

Matt should be careful with this, Connor doesn't need more angst in his life.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

He is, but this time it is more of Connor's secret than his own ;) *nods* I am being mean to Connor.

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Matt will be, he just hopes Connor will as well.

*nods* Poor Connor needs a hug.

Thanks for reading.

[clea2011]

Yes, I think this time Connor will keep it secret but Matt's probably right to be worried.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

I'm sure Matt will be. *nods* Connor certainly has enough angst.

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Connor will do his best, this time it is personal ;) Matt is just worried that Connor might let something slip, but Connor has a good incentive to keep his mouth closed this time.

Thanks for reading.

[lukadreaming.livejournal.com]

Matt and his secrets always make me twitch a bit!

[fififolle]

Is he going to help Connor? I hope so!! Come on, Matt!

[talliw.livejournal.com]

Someday all his secrets will blow right into his face.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Ah, but this is more Connor's secret *nods*

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Hopefully, Matt and Abby were to two who knew something was 'wrong' with Connor.

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

It is certainly a possibility.

Thanks for reading.

[cordeliadelayne]

Sounds like more shenanigans in store!

[adafrog.livejournal.com]

*bites nails*

*looks frantic*

[dreamer-98.livejournal.com]

Hope Matt doesn't keep it secret from Connor for too long.

[flaccidduck.livejournal.com]

fabulous sense of suppressed tension!

[judithjohn.livejournal.com]

really powerful!

[celeste9]

Oh, so many secrets! But I think Connor will keep this one. *hugs him on principle*

[nietie.livejournal.com]

Erk! I hate secrets.

[deinonychus-1.livejournal.com]

eeep! I'm even more worried about Connor now.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Quite possibly it all depends on the prompts ;)

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Um, sorry. I'm sure Connor will keep this secret.

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked that.

*blushes* Thanks, I'm quite enjoying writing it.

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Mind those nails.

Sorry, hopefully the next prompt (or two) will help.

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Um, it isn't Matt's secret, it's Connor's this time.

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Thanks, glad you liked it.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked it and thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*nods* They've all got them, but this one Connor has a real incentive to keep. *Connor always needs a hug*

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Sorry. I don't think Connor does either, but this is one he will kepp.

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Sorry. Don't worry, Connor will hopefully be OK.

Thanks for reading.

[telperion-15.livejournal.com]

Awwwwwww, poor Connor! I can kind of see why Matt's keeping his secret though...

[fredbassett]

Interesting to see Matt's perspective here.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

*nods* Matt doesn't trust Philip, so he hopes it all works out for the best.

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Glad you liked it, Matt seemed to be the expert at keeping secrets. Thanks for looking at it and for reading.

[ebonyfeather.livejournal.com]

ooh, great installment!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

Thanks, glad you liked it.

[kristen-mara.livejournal.com]

Ooooo Matt!!! Make the right choice, both of you!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

The boys hope it will all work out OK.

Thanks for reading.

[tay-21.livejournal.com]

Uh-oh. I'm not sure keeping secrets is really the best choice in this circumstance. Matt better be careful.

Poor Connor. *Meep* *Huggles him close*

[lsellersfic.livejournal.com]

Well I hope Matt does find out the truth and quickly!

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

It possibly is - they are keeping the secret from Philip.

Connor needs a huggle.

Thanks for reading.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

So does Matt.

Thanks for reading.

[samueljames]

Keeping secrets doesn't always work out well but I can understand Matt being worried.

[knitekat.livejournal.com]

True, but Matt has the best of intentions.

Thanks for reading.
