I knew him as Nick Holden.
He left me as Neal Caffrey.
He met me as Alice Presley. 
And left me when I was her, too. 
The difference between Nick Holden and Neal Caffrey was the one thing that made a horrible foul-tasting dent in our perfectly sugary little love story. I liked Nick better. Nick Holden showered me with surprise sweet kisses when I was feeling down, and oh how those kisses lifted me up off of my feet. Nick walked the earth and back for me, Nick helped me through the awfully hard times with a tattered daisy-patterned blanket, his shoulder to cry on and a cup of delicious creamy soup. Nick didn't leave me. But he did, because Nick wasn't real. Neal was. 
Neal is real. The only thing I liked about Neal Caffrey better than his fake identity was that he told me the truth. Even if it was the cold bitter truth, he told it to me. 

Neal Caffrey was a better man in his drunken hours. And I was a better person in my sober minutes. How I wish I could change what happened in those drugged drunken hours...

Neal's arch-enemy has escaped from prison. Who will he target first? September 2007. Part of the Caffrey Conversation series. Follows the events in Mousetrap. My White Collar stories are set in the Caffrey Conversation universe created by Penna Nomen. In that world, Neal Caffrey--an expert forger, thief, and con artist--is recruited by Special Agent Peter Burke to work for him at the FBI. Neal begins his new life in December 2003 when he is twenty-three years old. Unlike the TV series, Neal was never convicted of a crime and didn't serve time in prison. Penna Nomen is the creator and chief muse of the series. She is also my writing partner. The complete list of Caffrey Conversation stories is on our blog, Penna Nomen & Silbrith Conversation. Our stories are also posted on Archive of Our Own and FanFiction. This story is for fun. I don't own the rights to the White Collar TV series.
