First Cars fic! Yay! Well, sorta yay. This didn't come out very good if you ask me. Dangit. I've been having some writer's block of late.

I've got an idea for a longer fic, which I'll start soon. Until then, enjoy this ficlet. Honest reviews are appreciated. I mean it! No going nice on me because I'm new or any of that!

Disclaimer: I don't own Cars. Pixar does. However, this fic is mine.


A Heavy Word

By Netbug009

It made him sweat.

It was one thing to be going out with somebody. It was one thing to enjoy spending time with them and being close to them.

But, loving them was a totally new thing for him.

He knew it, but saying it was the hard part. Love was more than just a casual thing. It was a heavy word, only to be used with care and commitment. But, at the same time, it was something you couldn't hold in when you felt it.

"Sally?"

She turned to him, and he gulped. It was a strange feeling. He knew she liked him, and he felt the same way, well, sort of. He didn't just like her anymore, and that was the hard part.

"Um..." He put on a smile and blurted it out. "I love you, you know."

That was it. It was just 3 small words, yet from the look on Sally's face, they meant more than anything to her. She smiled at him. "I love you too Stickers." She gave him a kiss on the cheek and drove off happily.

It made him smile.
