I know that this is a really teeny tiny chapter but i promise the next one is going to be much longer and may even be up later tonight. Enjoy x
NO! No no no! This was all wrong! Lydia had waited all day for Catherine to arrive to pick up her car. At quarter to three someone arrived. But it wasn't Catherine.
When Lydia first saw Sara wandering up the road her heart skipped. She barely resisted the urge to run over and throw her arms around her, she was that thrilled to see her. That was until she realised why Sara was here.
And it was not good.
"Hey, well look who's back!" Steph announced when she noticed the brunette sauntering up the road.
"Auntie Sara!" Charlie shrieked, running towards her. Sara crouched down and scooped the little boy up, holding him high in the air, before placing him on her hip.
"Hey Chucky!" she grinned, calling him by his nickname. She placed him back on his feet on the garage forecourt but he stuck by her. Steph walked over, wiping her hands on a dirty rag, and dragged her friend into a hug.
"Good to see you back on your feet Sidle, we've missed ya haven't we?" Charlie nodded eagerly, wrapping his little arms around her long legs. Sara chuckled and eventually freed herself from the grip of the Scullys.
After a few unsuccessful attempts on Steph's part to find out what was going on between Sara and Catherine, the blonde handed over the keys and with a final hug, Sara clambered into the car.
"This isn't over Legs, I'll find out your dirty little secret!" Steph hollered through the open window as Sara pulled out of the forecourt laughing.
Why was Sara here?! She shouldn't be here. When she saw Steph handing over the keys to Sara her heart skipped a beat. Sara was going to drive Catherine's car. Lydia knew that she should stop her, say something. But she couldn't. She couldn't move. Frozen by fear, all she could do was watch her girl drive off in a ticking time bomb.
This was bad.
What had she done?
