As Michael was making his coffee, he noticed was thinking a lot about Sara, but then he didn't know where she stands, she has a boyfriend but Linc said she seemed to like him, and she did seem to flirt with him, or was she just being friendly. Michael didn't know what to think so he decided to go for a walk in the park and clear his head.

As he walked through the park he couldn't get the thought of Sara out of his head, and for the first time in his life he wanted to think about work but even there she haunted his thoughts.
The leaves were falling from the trees as it was fall, he watched one of them fall to the ground, when he looked past it his heart leapt from its place, she was walking alone, her head lowered to the ground, she looked so sad. Thinking he will just say hello, he walked over to her.
"Hey" he greeted, her head jumped upward at the sound, she was obviously in deep thinking
"Hey" her whole face lit up at the sight of him and she smiled as if she was never sad
"How are you, your hand isn't too stiff is it?" he teased
"No my hand isn't stiff, and as I recall I won over you" she answered smiling
"Well if I hadn't missed my turn because of a certain someone, I wouldn't have argued" he laughed at the look on her face, she looked guilty and innocent like small child
"I still won" she said replacing the guilty look with a triumphed smile
They were quiet for a bit as they walked
"So alone huh?" Michael asked interrupting the silence
"Yeah well, I like fresh air" she answered, "and I am meeting someone later today here, you?" she added
"I always come here to clear my thoughts" he answered
"What is blurring your thoughts, me?" she asked cutly
He laughed trying to hid his blushed cheeks, but not good enough, she too blushed when she saw his rosy cheeks
The park was emptier than usual so Michael asked "wanna go to the swings, i'll push you" he offered
She laughed, she hadn't been on a swing since childhood " Michael, aren't we a bit old?"
"You are never too old for a swing, besides there is no one at the swings
"Ah well" she finaly agreed
They walked to the swings and Sara sat on one, Michael started pushing her from behind taking in the smell of her hair, his hands on her back pushing her gently, then he found himself wondering if she was feeling the same feelings he was
"My mother used to take us to the park when were kids" he said to comfortable silence, his voice was low not wanting to disturb it
"I remember my first visit to the park with my mother, I was seven, my mom didn't like me getting dirty so she didn't take me sooner, but one day I kept begging her till she gave in and took me, I stayed on the swing most of the time, then we went and bought chillydogs, I had so much fun that day that she took me everyday after that, until she died" she said in the same low voice Michael used
"My first time into the park was when I was three, my mom took us saying that the park is a lesson for life, you work hard to get to the top of a slide, to then slide down and enjoy your time, I didn't understand what she meant at the time, but now I look back I wish I was a kid again, my greatest worry to get a new race car, I actually stayed on the slide all day long, I remember Lincoln staying on the monkey bars" he said chuckling a bit, she smiled at his laugh it was music to her ears
Silence then filled the air as he pushed her gently, but not tensed silence but that of understanding
"I'll race you to the slides" Sara said suddenly and ran to the slides, Michael was surprised for a moment but then ran after her, she was already at the top of the ladder, he turned around and ran to the end of slide, she came fast down the slide and into his open arms, he cought her and fell back on the playground's sand still laughing, she was also laughing she ahdn't been this happy in along time. Their laughes turned into small chuckles and then into fading smiles as they realized their position, they didn't move though but stared into each others eyes.
After a minute or so Sara moved off his body with her cheeks extremly red, michael then got up, dusted the sand off his back and said "now I haven't had that much fun since I was a kid" trying to ease the tension out of the air
"Neither did I" she said smiling
"So you wanna grab-" Michael was saying before he was interrupted by yell
"Hey sara!!"
He walked to her side and kissed her lightly
"Erm.. Michael this is Keith my boyfriend"
(Before you start throwing stuff at me I tried to postpone his appearance for as long as possible, but he had to come out eventually, oops stuff thrown anyways, ok despite Keith I hope you enjoyed this chapter as much as I did, it really was a blast writing this chapter, it is my favourite so far, oh and REVIEW!!)
