Chapter 1 – Date?
"What did I ever do to deserve this?" Sarah thought to herself.
Suddenly the door behind her slammed open, she whirled round on her rickety stool and there he stood, grinning at her like he always did.
"Hello Daniel" Sarah sighed while trying to bring her heartbeat down to an acceptable level. He was always startling her like that and she hated it, she should really be used to it by now.
Daniel was her co-star in the show they were currently performing. He was tall with dark hair and extremely arrogant.
"Please Sarah, call me Dan" he drawled while striding across the room to her. He began to massage her back, much to Sarah's dislike.
"Umm Daniel….sorry Dan, what are you doing" she wriggled uncomfortably beneath his grasp.
"I'm helping you relax babe, I can tell you're….stressed" he leaned down to her ear to whisper the last word.
Sarah had had enough of this; she pulled away from his hands and stood up. He looked startled when she turned to face him, perhaps hurt as well.
"Look Daniel…."
"Dan." he cut her off. Sarah sighed.
"Ok, Dan, whatever, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you or anything, you were just making me a feel a bit uncomfortable, that's all."
His cheeky grin was back, Sarah assumed the hurt look in his face had probably just been him acting, he was good at that, too good, she thought.
"Well Sarah, sorry for making you uncomfortable and all but I do have a reason for being here" Sarah looked up at him; he must have been able to see the confused look in her sparkling jade eyes. "Well I just thought I'd ask you out to dinner tonight?"
"Oh wow, um, Dan, sorry I really can't…." he cut her off by placing a finger to her lips.
"Shhh, no need to make up any silly excuses now is there? You know you want to go for dinner with me, so why deny it? You're mine Sarah, you have been since I first laid eyes on you, and what I want…..I get" a fiercely determined look flashed in his eyes as he said that. Sarah's eyes widened in fright but she just nodded silently.
The determined look in his face disappeared to be replaced by a cheerfully satisfied grin "Right, that's settled, until tonight, my love" he leaned in and kissed her gently on the cheek before turning to walk out of the small room.
Sarah stared as he walked out before collapsing down onto her stool. She rubbed her cheek viciously as if trying to eliminate the feel of the kiss. It was then that a sudden thought passed through her, he definitely reminded her of someone. But who? She thought hard but simply couldn't remember who it was. She pushed it to the back of her mind and went back to applying her make up in the dim light.
Short chapter but I wanted to leave it there, planning on having longer chapters in the future, please review and I will have the next chapter up as soon as I can!
