As Laurel Lance's jeep pulled over in front of their new home, Sara observed the place from the co-driver's seat. It was a pretty nice home, with two floors and attics. It was separated into two it seemed really large. The outside was consisted of many windows on the first floor, balconies on the first and large windows on the attics. The whole house was covered in white bricks and it looked very nice with well-trimmed lawn and a parking lot and garage.
Sara and Laurel got out of the car, breathing in the air and looking at their mother, Dinah who had just gotten out of her car.
"Do you like it girls?" she asked her daughter as they walked towards the front door of the house. Sara was about to answer her mother but suddenly she felt something strange. Like someone watching her closely. She looked around and her eyes settled to the house next door where the front door opened and a girl walked out.
She looked 17, about Sara's age and had long brown hair and big icy blue eyes. The girl walked out of her house and moved towards her-Laurel and her mother having already walked inside.
"Hey, I'm Lisa Snart; I live next door." She told Sara and gestured towards the large house with the black bricks next to her own. The girl-Lisa, was smiling brightly and Sara shaked the hand that she had stretched towards her.
"Hi, I'm Sara; Sara Lance." She said and smiled back at her. "Just moved here." The girl smirked at her as she toyed with a curl from her hair.
"I can see that Sara. You going to Central City High?" Lisa asked and Sara nodded. "That's great! Maybe you wanna meet tomorrow morning so we can go together. I know how crappy it can be to go alone on the first day in a totally new school." She smiled a little at Lisa.
"Well, actually I have my sister Laurel. Would you mind if she might came with us?" Sara asked her and she smiled to herself, confusing Sara.
"No problem. Meet outside my house at 8.30?" Lisa asked Sara as she started to feel the eyes on her again. A weird emotion and feeling like she was being watched, a feeling she was familiar with.
"Deal. See you tomorrow Lisa. Nice meeting you." Sara said and waved off at her neighbor as she walked inside her house, looking around again.
The house was even more beautiful from inside, with light colored wooden floors and ceiling and white and nude furniture and many new things. She walked up the large staircase and moved down the long hallway until she reached the last door. Her mother had informed her that she brought her new things and had kept most of her personal items and had placed them in the last bedroom.
It really was beautiful, with a large bay window that showered the room with light, a big closet, a king sized bed in a Victorian style, shelves filled with books, a large glass desk, a bastille chair filled with furry pillows and a large chandelier that hung from the ceiling. She moved and started unpacking all of her suitcases.
She felt it again. The eyes; the intensive stare from someone as she made every move. She walked to the bay window and looked outside.
She saw that across from her room was an exact same bay window that had another room. That room looked totally different than hers. With dark walls, dark wooden floor and bed, dark wooden office, dark colored wardrobe. Everything was dark in that room and the only thing Sara could make out was a mere shadow of a person; a man sitting in the bed with his head between his hands. The curtains hid everything else and she took a step back and continued unpacking before the man noticed her presence.
Sara was awakened from her daydream by Laurel walking inside her room with a suitcase in hand that clearly was hers.
"Come on Sara, this is unfair. I got a bigger room; but you got a bay window." Laurel complained as she cocked her head and looked outside the window, seeing the man. "And a first row seat to the probably new neighbor's room." Sara lifted her eyebrow and Laurel laughed before handing her the suitcase.
"I met a girl from next door, Lisa and I'm gonna go to school with her tomorrow. Wanna come or you gonna go with Iris?" Sara asked and Laurel still looked around her room.
"I'm gonna go with Iris, sis. Haven't seen her for a while." She said and suddenly her phone started ringing. She took it out of her pocket and immediately smiled; that meant that Oliver was calling.
Sara still didn't understand how after everything that had happened with Oliver, she still forgave him and was with him. She knew that his cheating ways hadn't stopped and that in fact something had happened between him and Felicity. Sara thought that after everything that had happened between the two of them, he would have learned his lesson; but obviously the playboy Oliver Queen didn't learn his lesson even the hard way.
"Hey Ollie." She told him softly and then he told her something, to which she giggled. Sara rolled her eyes as she placed the last of her clothes to her closet and putted the suitcases away. "Sara I gotta go now. See you in dinner." And that's how Laurel walked out leaving Sara in her thoughts at her new room.
The rest of the evening passed low-key; the girls mostly helped their mother settle in their new house and tidied up their things and by the end of the night, they finally had putted everything to their rightful place.
The house felt somewhat empty to Sara, without her father there. She called him before she started getting ready to go to bed and told him that she missed him and loved him. She felt bad for him, all alone in Star City, while they were 600 miles away.
She putted on her boy shorts and tank top and settled to bed, after saying goodnight to her mother and Laurel. Sara had no trouble to fall asleep, but before she did she felt that thing again; more than before. There was definitely someone watching her.
In the morning, she got ready for school and tried again to ignore the mysterious boy from across her room, by drawing her curtains. After grabbing her backpack and saying a quick bye to her mother and Laurel, she walked out and moved towards the Snart home. It was much bigger than she thought it was in the first place, with the garden perfectly settled and the grass trimmed. She sat in the wooden swing in the garden and pulled out her sketchbook to sketch and keep herself occupied until Lisa arrived.
Once again, she got lost in her drawing, with her hand almost subconsciously sketching the Snart home with every detail. Suddenly, Sara heard the large wooden front door open and she lifted her head to see if Lisa had come. But instead of the girl, she saw two men walking out and moving towards the garden.
The one was about 1.90 with almost shaved head and really rough face with a grim expression. He wore a pair of dark pants, a black t-shirt and a large jacket with a pair of boots. His eyes were fixed on the ground as he walked and the man next to him spoke to him in really low volume.
But it was the other man that caught Sara's attention the most. He was shorter than the other man, but muscular too. He had short-cut dark hair and obviously a jawline for days. He wore a pair of black skinny jeans, with a dark navy blue sweater; a black leather jacket and combat boots. She stared at him, trying to memorize the way his mouth moved as he spoke and the way his lips curled a little when the other man answered.
Then, the door opened and Lisa run out and reached the two men. Both of them turned and faced her, as she handed the shorter man a phone.
"Lenny, can't you stop forgetting your things home?" she asked the man-Leonard, who just shrugged. She then turned her head and looked at Sara sitting there watching them, smiling at her brightly. "I am so sorry I am late, I overslept again." She grabbed Leonard by the hand and walked to her, with the other man following.
Sara stood up and putted her sketchbook back in her backpack, as she tucked a blonde curl behind her ear. She smiled brightly at Lisa, but tried not to look at either one of the guys.
"No problem, I just came." She said and shrugged. Lisa smiled and turned to look at the men.
"Sara, this is my big brother Leonard and his friend Mick. Guys, this is Sara Lance. She just moved next door and she is going to be in our school this year." Lisa said and nudged Leonard in the shoulder to signal him to stretch out his hand towards her; which he did.
Sara lifted her eyes and looked at him as she reluctantly shaked his hand. Then, as she met his eyes she froze. They were blue, like Lisa's; but there was something different in them. She felt like he was seeing right through and suddenly she was vulnerable under his gaze.
Those were the eyes that were watching her the other day and he is the boy that sat in that bed across her room. She cleared her throat, deciding to speak first to hide her uneasiness.
"Hi, I'm Sara." She told him as she shaked his hand. He was surprisingly warm in her stone cold hands and the November weather of Central City.
"Leonard." He told her, with his voice calm and with evident sarcasm. "Nice to meet you, Sara." The way he spoke her name was enough to send shivers down the girl's spine. She flashed him a small smile and turned to the other man and shake his hand.
"Hey, Sara. I'm Mick." He said and smirked at Sara who smiled at him.
Little did she know that a pair of icy blue eyes were watching her and observing every detail of her from head to toe. Leonard looked at the younger girl in front of him, closely. She had long curled blonde hair than felt down her shoulders perfectly and bright sapphire blue eyes that signed under the morning light. Her lips were looking soft and were a painted pale pink under her white skin with small freckles. She wore a pair of black jeans that clad low in her slender hips, a fitting dark green long sleeved blouse that hugged the girl's curves and a small black leather with a pair of high heeled combat boots.
But apart from the girl's stunning appearance her scent was about to drive him out of his skin. She smelled of lilies and something else; something that-for the first time in his life, he couldn't pinpoint. But one thing was for sure; that the smell of the girl-Sara, was slowly driving him crazy and if he hadn't improved his control so much with the help of Mick he would have totally lost it.
Much to his luck, the two girls walked away together leaving him alone with Mick who asked him what the hell was wrong with him. He just shrugged and moved to his car, trying to ignore Mick's questions.
Lisa introduced Sara to her friends, Kendra and her boyfriend Ray, her own boyfriend Cisco, Barry; his girlfriend Iris, Jax and Caitlyn. They all introduced themselves to her and were really nice to her; especially Kendra-Lisa's best friend.
They talked about their favorite movies, favorite things to do, favorite places and they found out that they got along perfectly with each other. Then Sara told her new friends that she had to go find her sister and ask her to give her a spare key for their house, because she had forgotten hers.
So, Sara walked away from the cafeteria and moved to the empty hallways to find Laurel who was currently in Calculus class, which was in the totally other side of the school. But as she walked down the empty hallway of the second floor in the east wing of the school, she stopped her tracks upon hearing an angry voice.
"Why can't he and his pack stay in their own territory and stop causing trouble?" she heard Leonard Snart yell at someone, even though he seemed to hold himself back.
"Don't know boss, Jax and the Boy Scout confronted him about it, but he wanted to talk to you only." Said Mick to him, with his deep voice. Sara now decided to walk down the hallway and act as if she didn't hear any of their yelling. Both of them turned and looked at her with their eyes clouded and their pupils dilated. Mick didn't pay much attention to her, though Leonard looked at her in the eyes and smirked as she waved towards them and turned around the corner, putting an extra sway to her hips which definitely didn't go unnoticed.
She began to spend more and more time with Lisa and two weeks later she invited Sara over for a sleepover at her house. After a lot of pleading, Dinah finally was finally convinced by her younger daughter and at nine in the afternoon Sara stood in the Snart's doorway with a backpack in hand. She rang the bell and waited. Immediately, the door opened and Lisa pulled Sara into a hug and moved her inside the house.
The house was much more beautiful inside than outside if that was even possible, with dark wooden floors and ceilings and black furniture. It looked spacious, but somehow empty. She followed Lisa to the second floor and then walked up the stairs, that as she told her, leaded to one of the three attics. Her room had to be the biggest one in the whole house and it was an explosion of pink and girly things. She felt odd in a room so girly and filled with pink things that were so different from her plain one, with its walls covered in white bricks and its attic ceiling covered by beams and its large balcony door and balcony.
Both she and Lisa ended up sitting in Lisa's bed and talking about everything and nothing at all. They talked about Lisa's family and Lisa told her that her mother had left her and Leonard with their father when she was just two and him three. She told her that her father was a horrible man, an awful person who didn't lose a chance to spend their mother's fortune and abuse his children. When she got to the part where her father abused both of her and her brother and Leonard did everything to protect his sister, Lisa teared up and she ended up in Sara's arms.
At the end, she told Sara that her father had been killed in the woods, last April and from then; her mother's father had provided them with money and they lived there only with Mick.
And Sara had told her a little about her own life and how everything turned upside down from the moment her sister's boyfriend convinced her to go in his yacht with him in January 2015. There had been caught in a storm and suddenly one moment she was betraying her sister by sleeping with her boyfriend; and the other she was waking up in a hospital bed with fresh scars all along her body. She was sinking underwater and as she tried to swim back to the surface, somehow she was caught in a rock and as she tried to escape, her body was stuck in between the rocks.
When she woke up with the hospital Laurel was a mess, she was drinking and she had to be on drugs. She had yelled at her; told her that she destroyed her whole life and never come back home. But after a little she saw how much Sara was sorry and how broken she truly was and after a talk with Oliver she forgave her and they were stronger than ever.
And Lisa listened, just as Sara had and consoled her friend. Both of the girls fell asleep late at night, but Sara struggled once again with the nightmares.
She woke up from her troubled sleep with a muffled scream and for a moment she swore that she had heard some kind of noise. She decided to go downstairs for a glass of water and moved to the Snart's big kitchen. She poured herself a glass of water and sat in the stool.
Suddenly she heard a noise and then, Leonard Snart walked inside the kitchen holding carts of take out. Once he caught her sight, he stopped and settled the empty boxes on the counter. Then he leaned against the counter and smirked at her.
"Trouble falling asleep?" he asked as she drank her second glass of water. She looked up at him and lifted her eyebrows.
"Late night snack?" she asked him back and he smirked more at her. Sara stood up and poured herself another glass of water. She felt Leonard's gaze burning upon her and observing her again.
She had worn a pair of silk royal-blue pajama shorts and a matching top with rouleaux straps and a racer-back. Sara felt his eyes wander down her long legs and her backside as she walked and sat back at the stool.
"So, why are you up Sara?" Leonard answered as he opened the fridge and took out a slice of cold pizza.
"Can't I drink a glass of water, Leonard?" she asked the man who kept his eyes locked on hers. She suddenly felt it. The need inside her body rose up and she felt her heartbeat speed up at the sight of the man. "Or do I need to ask permission?"
He smirked at the feisty petite blonde girl in front of him and she surprisingly smiled at him. Actually smiled at him with her eyes shining under the dim lights.
"Of course not." He said to her and took a step closer. He knew that what he was doing was risky, but that little voice inside of him pushed him to the blonde. He barely knew her one day and she had turned his life upside down. He couldn't sleep that night and the moment he felt her wake up and scream, he rose up from his bed too, dripping in sweat. "You come here often?" He leaned closer with a playful smirk on his lips.
Sara leaned closer to him two with a bright smile on her face and before she could answer, Mick rushed inside the room.
"Boss, we have an issue. It's-." He cut his words, when he saw Sara sitting in the stool. He looked upset and somewhat different than how he seemed in the morning. His eyes were angrier and for a second she would have sworn they had glowed blue in the darkness. "We have to go, now." Leonard was already alerted and he walked over to Mick.
"I can feel it. They are close." He said and looked at her. "Sara, did you finish your water?" She lifted her eyebrows and looked at both of them.
"Can't I drink my water in silence?" she asked, but Leonard didn't seem to be joking anymore. Never the less, Sara stood up and let the water in the counter, before starting to walk towards the stairs.
But she stopped from a sound echoing all around the house. It was a howl so loud that made Sara stop at her tracks and look at Leonard and Mick that were clenching their fists. Something was wrong. She could feel it inside of her. Something bad was going to happen that night.
"What the hell is going on?" she asked them, but they didn't seem to hear her. "Leonard!" At the sound of his name, his head shot up and then Sara saw it.
His eyes were blood red and looking right at her as another howl was heard and now Sara was certain that it was coming from the Central City woods that were behind their houses.
