Song Last Night by Skillet
I don't own the song or the characters.
Last Night Alone
You come to me with scars on your wrist
You tell me this will be the last night feeling like this
I just came to say goodbye
I didn't want you to see me cry, I'm fine
But I know it's a lie
Catherine:
I wake up to knocking on my door and I open the door surprised to see Sara looking upset. She asks to come in and I let her. As she walks in I notice scars on her writs that I didn't notice before. She tells me that this is goodbye and that she will miss me.
Sara:
I tell her goodbye and that I will miss her. Even thought she doesn't know it I've always loved her and will always love her even though I cannot be with her. She's looking at me like a deer caught in headlight.
This is the last night you'll spend alone
Look me in the eyes so I know you know
I'm everywhere you want me to be
The last night you'll spend alone
I'll wrap you in my arms and I won't let go
I'm everything You need me to be
Catherine:
I look at her realizing what she's saying to me. I look into her eyes and she looks down at the floor. I reach out to grasp her head to make her look at me and tell her that I can help her, that this is the time she'll ever feel alone. I reach out and embrace her in a hug. She starts shaking and sobbing. I have to convince her not to want to take her own life, I've always been fond of her and I've always been afraid to tell her how I really felt about her. I promise to myself once I get her better I will tell her how I feel.
Your parents say everything is your fault
But they don't know you like I know you they don't know you at all
Sara (flashback):
"Its always your fault you little fuckup. Get out of my sight", yelled my mother.
I'm so sick of when they say
It's just a phase, you'll be o.k. you're fine
But I know it's a lie
Sara: I tell her about my parents and how my mother killed my father and how I became sullen and depressed. Doctors said that I would get over it but in all these years it still hurts me as much as it did that first night. I think they were just lying to me so that I would believe them, think positively and in turn that would make me better.
The night is so long when everything's wrong
If you give me your hand
I will help you hold on
Tonight
Tonight
Catherine: I hold Sara while she sobs and wait for her to calm down. When she does I lead her over to the couch and make her sit down. I get down on one knee in front of her so I can be on the same level as her. I reach out to hold her hand and then look into her eyes. I tell her that she is an amazing person and that I won't leave her side again. She looks back at me, smiles says thanks and reaches for me to hug me.
I won't let you say goodbye
And I'll be your reason why
The last night away from me
Away from me
Epilogue
Catherine: I got Sara the help she needed and was there with her for every step. This brought us closer together and eventually I told her how she felt and I found out she felt the same. Two years later she proposed to me and I accepted.
