So this is my first attempt at a story, I've already written a couple of chapters but I'm going to post this one first to get a feel for what people think of the story. So please read and review to let me know, that would be amazing!
Summary: Sarah gets messed up in with backstage politics that ends up costing her the man she loves.
Chapter 1:
How did I end up in this mess in the first place? I mean usually I am the one that avoids drama and backstage politics. I play it safe, it makes life and work much easier. No here I am right in the thick of it all, and I feel like crap. Why would people ever want to be involved in this bullshit on purpose? This people must be gluten for punishment or something like that. I mean here I am, moments away from breaking this innocent man's heart, just because I basically sold my soul to the devil.
"You remember the plan?" The sinister voice whispered in my ear. Shivers shot down my spine while my stomach twisted and turned with dread. I shook my head obediently.
"Good, remember what will happen if you back out." With that he left, to let wallow in my misery. A tear slid down my face.
"Sarah?" I closed my eyes tightly for a moment, trying to prevent anymore tears from falling. "Hey what's wrong?" I felt his hand on my shoulder and gently turned me around. I could use the look of concern on this face when he saw my tears. "Sarah, what's wrong?" he asked again.
"Nothing," I smiled through my tears and wiped my face. "Just got some mascara in my eye, that's all." Ugh I lied to him, I hate lying to him, not that I hadn't been doing that the entire time we were together. Why did this have to be so complicated? This web is very tangled and I hated it. I can't do this to him, it's not fair. But if he found out the truth then he'll never speak to me again regardless. Either way I lose.
"Ok, well you comin' out to the ring with me for my match?"
"Yeah, of course," I said. 'So I can embarrass you in front of the entire world' I thought to myself.
"Awesome, let's go then." I nodded and started walking out the door. "Wait," he said, pulling me into his arms.
I gave him a questioning look. "What are you doing?" I asked, wrapping my arms loosely around his neck. I watched him sigh and try to collect himself, he looked very nervous. "You're making me nervous," I said. I'm not gonna lie, I was kinda hoping that he was going to break up with me right there and then. Saving me the trouble from doing it later.
He took a deep breath. "You don't have to be nervous. I just wanted to say thank you. After the divorce I thought that I was done with all of this, but you came out of no where and gave me life again. I didn't think that I could have something life this again. I just wanted to say…I love you."
My heart jumped up to my throat or dropped down to the pit of my stomach, I'm not quite sure. Either way, I felt like I was going to be sick. He loved me, and I had fallen for him as well, but it didn't matter, not after tonight.
"Are you going to say something, anything? I kinda put myself out on a limb here."
I exited my train of thought and sighed, "You love me?"
"Yeah, I do," he smiled as he tucked a strand of my hair behind my ear. Man this was something straight out of a chick flick, I'm totally loving it thought. Simply for the fact that this was probably the last moment I'll ever have with him.
"I love you too Shawn."
A/N: Ok so that's the first chapter, I already have the next two written, I'll probably post them later today. Let me know what you think!
