Me and Julie: *clutching each other's hands while gasping out of shock* Oh my God!

Kevin: Are you 2 OK?

Julie: You will never believe what's gonna happen this chapter.

Me: I can tell you that it involves Sarah and Sonics and their past.

Nelson: I don't wanna know!

Ben: Can you tell us?

Me: *passes him draft book*

Ben: *reads and joins me and Julie in what we're doing*

Me: Aside from Sarah, Nelson, Zac, Vanessa, Rosalie, Sonakine and more, everything belongs to Cartoon Network. The song belongs to Justin Bieber. I love him so much!

Enjoy the story.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was after lunch now and Sarah was brousing through the royal library. Zac, Vanessa and Rosalie were stuck in a strategy discussion with the guards and Julie was with Lord Supespian helping the groundskeeper watering the flowers in the royal gardens surrounding the castle. Sarah spent some time in their room thinking. But she decided that if she stayed in there another moment longer, she would be tempted to call the others...which were something that she and Julie couldn't do. They were sworn to secrecy on the ship on the way to Sonakine about this whole journey in the first place.

"I know you're there, Sonics," Sarah warned as she never took her eyes off of the books on the shelf.

She heard a scoff and a laugh, something she missed from her ex-boyfriend. "You could always tell when I was behind you, Faith."

Smiling, Sarah turned around and faced the 119 year old Sonakite. Sonics returned the smile and approached her to grab a book from the shelf. Sarah blushed a little bit as his fingers brushed against her cheek slightly. She blushed even harder as he barracaded her in the corner. Sonics was blushing as well.

"Looking for something to read?" Sonics guessed.

"After not having a thing to do with me for 7 years, you still know what I'm doing," Sarah chuckled in disbelief before adding, "At least something to keep my thoughts distracted."

"From what?" Sonics asked out of curiousity.

"I miss the others back home. I'm now tempted to call the others and tell them what's really going on and why we had to leave," Sarah confessed.

"I know, Faith. But, you know what they say: Some things are best kept secret. (Ben: Hey! Me: What? Julie: That's the story title. Me: I know!) This just falls into the catagory of things that are better off secret," Sonics comforted.

"I don't believe that. We have no secrets between us. I can't bear to think about their reaction when they find out...if they EVER find out," Sarah retorted.

"It's just to protect you and Spirit. Their Majesties were distraught when you and your family left. Imagine how distraught they would be if you 2 got killed because you came clean about this current moment," Sonics threw back.

"That was low," Sarah grumbled, playfully glaring at him.

"You know I can go lower than that," Sonics reminded her.

They laughed at that. It was the first time they truely had a conversation since Julie and Sarah arrived on Sonakine. Sarah couldn't help but savour every moment possible. She was also scared that her old feelings for Sonics were returning. After all, the only reason they broke up was because of their accident and the fact that her memory was erased. She wasn't surprised. But she was scared about the possibility of being forced to choose between Sonics and Nelson.

"Remember our first year aniversary?" Sonics asked her.

Sarah's smile grew wider. Dating Sonics was the best part about living on Sonakine...well, in her opinion anyway. It was hard for her to let it go.

"The karaoke bar," Sarah recalled.

"We sang that song together," Sonics added.

"'Overboard' by Justin Bieber and Jessica Jarrell!" Sarah exclaimed.

"Exactly," Sonics responded.

"I have that song on my iPod. It's one of the songs Julie and I absolutely love. I always knew it had a special meaning," Sarah told him before she started singing the lyrics to that all-too-familiar song from their undying love on Sonakine.

(Sarah/Sonics/Both)

It feels like we've been out at sea.
So back and forth, that's how it seems.
Whoa and when I want to talk,
You say to me...
That if it's meant to be, it will be.
So crazy in this thing we call love.
The love that we got,
That we just can't give up.
I'm reaching out for you to tell me
Out here in the water and I...

Sarah and Sonics left that section of the library and started walking around while still singing their love song.

I'm overboard and I need your love.
Pull me up.
I can't swim on my own.
It's too much.
Feels like I'm drowning without your love.
So throw yourself out to me,
My lifesaver.
Lifesaver
Oh, lifesaver.
My lifesaver.
Oh, lifesaver. Oh whoa.

Never understand when you say
Wanting me meet you halfway.
Felt like I was doing my part.
Get bringing your coming up short.
Funny how these things change.
Cause now I see...

So crazy in this love we call love
And now that we got it,
We can't give up
I'm reaching out for ya.
Got me out here in the water and I...

I'm overboard. (Overboard!)
And I need your love.
Pull me up (Pull me up)
I can't swim on my own.
It's too much (It's too much)
Feels like I'm drowning (Oh!)
Without your love.
So throw yourself out to me
My lifesaver.

Oh
It's supposed to be some give and take I know
But you're only taking and not giving anymore
So what do I do?
Cause I still love you
(I still love you baby)
And you're the only one who can save me.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, oh!

I'm overboard!
And I need your love to pull me up (pull me up!)
I can't swim on my own.
It's too much. (It's too much)
Feels like I'm drowning without your love.
(I'm drowning baby, I'm drowning)
So throw yourself out to me
(I can't swim)
My lifesaver

(Lifesaver, oh lifesaver)
My lifesaver
It's crazy, crazy, crazy.
(Lifesaver, oh lifesaver)
Lifesaver oh
(Lifesaver, oh lifesaver)
My lifesaver
(Lifesaver, oh lifesaver)

Yeah

(Me: *holds up 'Feel Free to 'Ooh' and 'Awwww' sign* Everyone: Awwwwwww... Me: *grumbling* Some 'Ooh's would've been nice, you know.) When they finished the song, they were in Sonics' bedroom. She had to admit. His bedroom was nice...but not as nice as the bedroom she and Julie are staying in throughout their time here.

"I'm amazed you still remember," Sonics confessed. (Kevin: Come on, Ice! Just write it already! Me: It's up next anyway so...*holds up a sign that says 'shuddup!'* Everyone: *goes quiet*)

"How can I forget?" Sarah retorted.

The next thing they knew, it happened. Sarah leaned in and gently kissed Sonics on the lips. She went to pull away, and then Sonics started kissing her back. The kiss got even deeper and passionate. He pushed her against the wall without breaking the kiss. Suddenly, reality hit Sarah like a ton of bricks. She's married and yet she's snogging her ex-boyfriend. She pushed Sonics off her breathlessly.

"What's wrong?" Sonics asked worriedly.

"I can't do this! I'm married now! I can't go behind my husband's back with my ex-boyfriend who is one century older than me and I can barely remember!" Sarah exclaimed.

"You kissed me, Faith!" Sonics argued.

"I know! And it was nothing but a big mistake!" Sarah screamed. (Me: *holds up 'Burn!' sign* Everyone (including readers and me) BURN!)

Sonics looked hurt at that. Obviously, he's still in love with Sarah. He knew that she loved him too, but she was married to someone else.

"A big mistake?" Sonics repeated, disappointed.

"Look, I'm sorry. I love you, but I love Nelson more. What we had is nothing but a memory. Don't make it choose between you 2, because it will always be Nelson. Always," Sarah pleaded.

"But, Nelson's nothing but a worthless Earthling who doesn't see your full potential," Sonics threw at her.

"Shut up," Sarah threatened.

"No! You should be with someone who sees your full potential! And it's me, Faith! Choose me! Not him!" Sonics shouted.

"FOR GOD'S SAKE, SONICS! SHUT THE FUCK UP!" Sarah screamed at him with tears streaming down her cheeks. (Me: *holds up 'Oooooo' sign* Everyone: Ooooooooooh.)

Sonics just stood there shocked at Sarah's sudden outburst. After recovering from his initial shock, he advanced towards her...only to stumble backwards after Sarah gave him a hooker to the jaw. He tried his advance again...only to have that ass back on the floor after Sarah punched him again, this time on the nose. (Me: *holds up 'Go Crazy!' sign* Everyone: *cheering* You go, girlfriend!)

"Stay away from me, Sonics," Sarah growled as she opened the door and ran off, leaving a heartbroken Sonics on the floor clutching his bleeding mouth and nose.

She happened to run past Julie and Lord Supespian who were finished in the royal gardens. Concern immediately started flowing through Julie's veins as Sarah continued running towards their bedroom.

"Faith!" Lord Supespian called out.

"I'll go talk to her," Julie told him before running after her sister, "SARAH! WAIT UP!"

Lord Supespian just shrugged and went back to his daily business. He never really understood why women were so emotional. And he never will since he believed that the female mind is frightening territory. (Boys: Very true. Girls: *holds up Null Void Projector* What was that? Boys: Nothing. Girls: *puts away Null Void Projector* It better be nothing if you want to keep a certain part of your anatomy. Boys: *confused* Huh? Girls: Your...*whistles* Boys: Yikes!)

When Sarah approached the bedroom, she pushed the door open and jumped onto the bed, burying her face into her pillow and sobbing her heart out hysterically. The door would've immediately slammed shut if it weren't for Julie opening it wider to gain access. She gently climbed onto the bed and started rubbing smoothing patterns on her back as an effort for comfort.

"Are you OK?" Julie asked worriedly.

"Do I look OK?" Sarah shot back, which was muffled by the pillow.

"Do you want to talk about it?" Julie questioned.

Knowing that her younger sister was persistant and wouldn't leave this alone, she rolled over onto her back. Julie copied her sister's actions.

"I kissed Sonics," Sarah confessed.

"You did not!" Julie exclaimed in disbelief.

"He found me in the library and we were reminiscing our first year anniversary as a couple," Sarah started.

"OK. I'm not really seeing the reason you're currently balling your eyes out," Julie confessed, who was obviously confused.

"Then, we sang our song," Sarah added.

"'Overboard'? I love that song!" Julie shouted.

"So do I. Then, the next thing we knew, we were in his bedroom – which isn't as nice as ours, by the way – and he said that he couldn't believe I still remember that day. That was when I said 'How could I forget'...and kissed him," Sarah continued.

"Are you serious!?" Julie exclaimed.

"I never joke about something this serious, Jules. He started to kiss me back and...well, things got passionate. As soon as I felt my back against the wall, reality hit me. I pushed him away and told him how I couldn't go behind my husband's back with my ex-boyfriend. Then, he went 'You kissed me, Faith!' and I retorted back by telling him that it was nothing but a big mistake. I hurt him when I said that. Then, I told him that I love him but not as much as I love Nelson and I was pleaded him to not make me choose between him and Nelson because I would always choose Nelson," Sarah continued.

"There's more, isn't there?" Julie guessed.

"Oh yeah. Then, he started dissing Nelson by saying that he's just a worthless Earthling who doesn't see my full potential. I told him to shut up at that. But, he kept going by saying that I should choose him because he sees my full potential. I started crying and screamed at him to shut up. He advanced towards me, so I gave him a hooker to the jaw. He tried again, but this time I punched him in the nose. While Sonics was on the ground clutching his bleeding nose AND mouth, I ran and you get the idea," Sarah finished.

"Wow," was all Julie could get pass her lips.

"Yeah," Sarah sniffled.

Julie reached over and handed Sarah a box of tissues. She took them greatfully and started blowing her nose.

"Come on. Let's go wash your face," Julie suggested.

They went to the bathroom and Sarah washed her face. After a little while...

"I miss the others," Julie blurted out.

"You're not the only one," Sarah agreed.

"You don't understand. I miss Gwen and her intellegent comments, I miss Kevin being immature, I miss Nelson nagging us about choosing a song for Hot Shots and I miss Ben holding me, kissing me, surprising me with random presents, saying how much he loves me every single moment possible and constantly talking about how excited he is about becoming a father. I miss how things were back home. There are some moments where I thought about what life would be like if we weren't aliens from a different planet," Julie confessed with tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Oh, Julie," Sarah sighed as she immediately pulled her younger sister into an embrace.

She started running her fingers through her hair and whispered soothing words, hoping she would calm down eventually. But, it didn't help because it wasn't long before Sarah started crying as well.

Eventually, they went back to their bed and cried themselves to sleep.

Me: It's not much. I know. JBAL19, thanks for helping me edit the chapter.

Ben: What was with the sign-thing?

Me: I wanted to try something new. I was listening to the new Justin Bieber album I bought, hence why I used a Justin Bieber song! About the author's note, I'm trying to limit by beginning and ending author notes to 100 words or less per chapter so I don't bore you.

Julie: We have to go now.

Me: Review. Add in your reviews if you want me to keep doing the sing-thing. Remember, your opinions DO matter.

Everyone: BYE!
