Alrighty! So next chapter is here! It was faster than before! It would've been posted faster, but I had a busy weekend... I went up to my best friend's place to help fix her car she was in an accident a few weeks back, and her bumper and the side of her car is all smashed... she's ok though and to celebrate my birthday early as they're not free this weekend. That was fun, fixing her car... getting all greasy and showing up the guys when they didn't think chicks could do it... but when I got home, the next day I found that my other friend whom was working on the car with us, was in hospital and the docs thought what she had was a rare disease and could kill within days. So needless to say we were worried, but everything is fine and she's ok! So, before I continue, a few mentions
Halliwell-luver - Yes! Plenty of teasing, which you will read in this chapter... hee hee hee!
Gryffindor620 - Hot is my middle name... LOL! Just joking.
SaraLou - Well, HEARING your parents having sex and SEEING your parents having sex when you are younger is totally different - Me: "DADDY! GET OFF MY MOMMY! YOU'RE HURTING HER!!" - Mom "SHIT! GET OFF! GET OFF ME!!" (peeks over the covers) "Daddy isn't hurting Mommy. We're just playing a game" Then when I got older I realized what they were doing then, and I'm scarred for life. Yes! Break for Lindsay, but that doesn't mean she isn't going to stop teasing them about it. And as for the ER episode you were watching... I believe that was Season 4. I have Season 3, and I know they found out she has HIV, but I don't think she fired her then...
torajack - Like I said, hot is my middle name... LOL! And you need to build the trust and the intimacy between couples, don't ya? Or else it's just gonna be a "sex" session and nothing more... and that's just boring... :-P
GoldenLocks - Yeah, they do love each other... I like how you said be together through it all, considering there's a twist at the end of this chapter... uh oh! Did I just say that? Yep! I just did:-P
iluvdarts - You know how I said I wanted a few more twists in the story before I end it? Here's one of the twists, it's been playing out in my head for months now. And I'm excited. And when are you gonna update "At The End of the Rainbow"? I'm waiting patiently my friend... :-)
"Mom! Sara! Get up! We have to leave soon!" I hear Lindsay knocking on the door
I turn my head to look at the time. 7:10. Fuck.
"Mom! Sara! Come on! Wake up!" Lindsay continues knocking on the door
Catherine stirs beside me
"Babe, we have to get up." I say, trying to get up and answer the door
"No… I'm tired"
"Yeah, me too hon. But I have to get up and answer the door to your daughter"
"Ugh… ok…" she releases me, and I get out of bed trying to find something to cover myself up with… fuck it… a sheet will do and I pull it away from Catherine
"No… I'm cold…" she mumbles
"Well unless you want me answering the door naked, I'm gonna take the sheet babe."
Catherine groans, then she gets out of the bed and goes into the bathroom. I wrap myself with the sheet and go to answer the door
"We're up, Lindsay" I say rubbing my eyes
"Sara… couldn't you find clothes before answer the door?" Lindsay says smiling at me
"Well, you were knocking on the door and it didn't sound like you were gonna stop, so I had no time to find clothes… what with them scattered all over the room and all" I smile, sticking my tongue out
"Oh please! I don't need to hear about yours and Mom's sex life! I had to hear it already! Going at it like bunnies!"
"Yeah… sorry about that, Linds. Look, give us 20 minutes and we'll be over there." I hear the shower going and I really want a shower before we leave
"Ok, and if you're not out by then, I'm gonna pound the door down…"
"Ok, ok. See you in a few" I say closing the door. I need coffee.
I take off the sheet and join Catherine in the shower
"Is that you, babe?" Catherine asks
"No, it's Greg" I say trying to imitate his voice, then return back to my voice "Of course, it's me" I reply entering the shower and wrapping my arms around Catherine.
Catherine turns around and starts to kiss me, teasing me with her tongue
"No fun in the shower today. I told Linds we'll be ready in 20 minutes"
"20 minutes?!" she asks
"Yeah, so shower quick and we'll just throw some clothes on and then leave"
"I can't get ready in 20 minutes!" she says while I start to wash my hair and body
"Of course you can… you got ready in 15 minutes last week"
"But I looked like shit" Catherine pouts
"Amuse me, honey and I'll reward you when we get back" I say rinsing my hair and body
"Really?" Catherine starts washing her hair
"Sure" I have a hard time putting words together when I haven't had coffee and lack of sleep
"Sure? That doesn't sound too convincing, Sara" Catherine says to me while I step out of the shower
"No coffee makes me sound unconvincing" I smile at her before turning to grab my toothbrush
"Ok, I believe you" she says turning off the shower and stepping out
"Youfth beffta, baffbe" I mumble as I'm brushing my teeth
"What was that?" Catherine says wrapping her arms around my waist. God… she feel so good naked against my back. I spit out the toothpaste and rinse out my mouth before turning around to face Catherine
"I said 'You'd better, babe" I give her a kiss "Now hurry up. We don't wanna keep your daughter waiting"
"Ugh. Drill Sergeant!" she says to me and I just smile and walk into the room to get dressed
"I'd better be rewarded good! I look like shit!" Catherine says as we're walking out of the room
"You will. I promise" I smile and put my hand in hers before I knock on the door "And you look beautiful. The 'just fucked' look, looks good on you"
"OH SARA!!" Greg answers mocking Catherine's words from last night
"Shut up, Greg" Catherine and I say in unison
"Busy night, then? Must have been, Sara woke us up at 5 screaming your name Catherine" Greg smiles allowing us into the room
"Greg, I've had no coffee. You remember what I'm like when I've had no coffee and no sleep, right? You need a Valium for her? If I remember correctly…" I glare at Greg
"Sorry. Anyways, Lindsay's just checking over Lindsendrix before putting her away. We've already put the drum set and mike in the car"
"Thanks" I say while Catherine goes to help Lindsay
"So you got the keys then? I'll bring Lindsay's bags down so Lindsay and Catherine can have some time together"
"Yep! Here you go" Greg says handing me the keys
"Great, thanks" I walk further into the room
"Hey, Linds. These bags yours?"
"Yep!" she says as she zips up her gig bag "Ready! Let's go"
"You obviously didn't get the quick getting ready genes from your Mom" I laugh
"Hey!" Catherine says
"It's true, Mom. You take forever to get ready!" Lindsay laugh
"No, I don't" Catherine pouts
"You do" I kiss her cheek "But if you want, I can lie. But I hate lying" I turn around and throw the bags over my shoulder
"Let's go" I say, holding the door open for everybody, Catherine is the last to leave "You look hot, anyways" I whisper to Catherine before closing the door and putting my free hand in Catherine's.
Once the elevator door closes Lindsay and Greg decide to tease us
"OH GOD SARA! SO CLOSE! FUCK CATH!!" they start laughing hysterically
Catherine is about to flip on them
"Let me… watch this" I whisper into her ear
"OH GREG! SUCK ME GREG!" I mock, Greg eyes going wide in shock "NICK, SPANK ME… HARDER NICKY BOY!"
"Uh… when did… how… when… what…" Greg stutters with his face turning redder than a tomato
"I heard you guys in the shower at work, the locker room as I was walking by and when I was outside your apartment… I was knocking, but you two were too pre-occupied" I smile a huge smug grin
"I… Nick… we… how… don't…" he sputters out
Lindsay and Catherine are in a fit of laughter, when the elevator door opens, I walk out with a laughing Catherine and I hear Lindsay behind me laughing at Greg
"I thought Mom and Sara were doing it like bunnies, but I'll say you and Nick are the bunnies!"
"Shut up, Lindsay" Greg says, but that only causes Lindsay to laugh harder
"My wittle bunny wabbit, Gweg" Lindsay laughs
"Remind me to bug you if I ever hear you and some dude going at it" Greg says
"Feel free. After hearing Mom and Sara… I think I'll wait 'til you guys are deaf, which will make me… 50!"
"Good, but I want grandkiddies, Lindsay. So don't wait until you're 50… maybe 49…" Catherine says to Lindsay as we get into the car
"Very funny, Mom" Lindsay laughs
We're finally on the road, we stopped at the coffee shop to get us some food and much needed coffee before the trip to the airport, and Shirley was working. Obviously she wanted to meet Catherine and Lindsay, so I brought them and Greg in to meet Shirley. But you know what women are like when you get them together, they start talking about anything and everything. Shirley and Catherine were chatting away while Greg, Lindsay and I stood there bored and getting annoyed. We tried dropping them hints that we had to go, but I don't think they caught on. So we left and sat in the car, still nothing. I don't think they even noticed we were gone.
"Sara, go get Mom. I'm gonna miss my plane at this rate!" Lindsay says sighing
"Why don't you?" I turn around asking Lindsay
"You're her girlfriend. I'm sure you can figure out a way to get her to shut up and leave" she replies, glaring through the window at Catherine
"But I don't wanna…." I whine "You should know how hard it is to get women to quit talking when they start…"
"Yeah, I do. But she won't listen to me, I'm only her daughter. She can ground me for being rude and interupting"
"She can ground me too!" I say, Greg raises an eyebrow at me with a smirk "Shut up, Greg"
"How? You're an adult" Lindsay questions
"You know what your mother is like…"
"But how can she ground you?"
"No sex for a month!" I slip out
"Oh! Ew! What is it with you adults and sex? I swear you're a bunch of sex addicts!" Lindsay says disgusted "Fine! I'll go get her. I don't wanna take away your stupid sex addiction" Lindsay storms out and into the coffee shop
"What's her problem?" I ask Greg, Lindsay had never blown up at me like that before
"Beats me" Greg replies
I see Lindsay walk up to Catherine, says something to her and start pulling on her hand to leave. Catherine turns to Lindsay and says something, then Lindsay replies and points to the car. Catherine's eyes widen and she nods her head, says something then turns to Shirley.
Lindsay comes into the car as Catherine starts walking out
"What did you say to her?" I ask, amazed
"That you told me to tell her that if she doesn't leave now, she'll get no sex for a month" Lindsay folds her arms and stares out the window. Greg chuckles, just as Catherine gets in
"Sorry, lost track of time" she says sweetly and kisses my cheek
"Uh huh." I say starting the car and peeling out of the parking lot
"Sara! Slow down!" Catherine says holding onto the handle on the car door
"Sorry, can't. We have less than 2 hours to get Lindsay to the airport before her plane leaves, plus she has to check in. It takes about 2 hours to get there, so I need to go a little faster that usual" I say, keeping my eyes on the road
"Oh, sorry." Catherine says
"It's ok, babe. It's Lindsay you'll need to apologize to. You know how she hates to be late" I say taking her hand in mine, and kissing her knuckles
Catherine turns in her seat to face Lindsay
"I'm sorry, honey. I didn't realize what time it was"
"Whatever" Lindsay mutters
"I really am sorry, Linds"
"Like I said! Whatever!" Lindsay yells
Uh oh! I don't think I've ever seen Lindsay like this… I've heard about it, but I've never experienced it before today
Catherine turns back around
"What day is it?" she asks me
"Um… the 20th, I believe. Why?" I ask
"Ah! That explains it"
I look at Catherine confused
"It's her time of the month." Catherine replies
"Mom!" Lindsay squeals "Why don't you announce it to the whole damn fricken world?!"
Ok… remind me not to piss Lindsay off when she's on her rag
"Sara? Can we put the radio on, please?" Lindsay asks
Wow! Bitch to nice in less than a second… definitely Catherine's daughter
"Sure, Linds. Any special genre today?" I ask
"Uh… just go through the stations and I'll tell you when to stop"
"Ok sure"
So I turn on the radio and start changing the stations
"Nope… nope… ew, country… no jazz… what the hell is this? Nope…" then we come across "Before He Cheats"
"Oh! Ha! I love this song!" Lindsay say and I chuckle
"You do know this is country, right?"
"Yeah, but this is an exception"
"I dug my key into the side of his pretty little souped up 4 wheel drive, carved my name into his leather seats... I took a Louisville slugger to both headlights, slashed a hole in all 4 tires... Maybe next time he'll think before he cheats." Lindsay sings along
When the song was finished, Catherine laughs at the song
"I should've done that to Eddie's car, when he cheated on me." She says
"Oh no, no, no, no, no…. yeah he may have cheated and he may have been an asshole, but you do not touch a man's car! That just isn't right!"
"Oh yeah, Catherine… our cars… don't mess with our cars. Do whatever else you want, burn all our clothes so we have to walk around at work in boxers, or the nude… whatever you want… but you do not touch our cars!" Greg says
"But if he cheats, he'll have deserved it" Lindsay pipes in
"Thank you, Lindsay. My thoughts exactly!" Catherine says
"But that's not a nice thing to do…" I say
"You know what we say at school?" Lindsay asks
"No, what?" I reply
"We say we'll do a Carrie Underwood if our boyfriends cheat on us"
"I guess that'll make the guys think twice about cheating then" I say, smiling at Catherine and Lindsay
Man, I can't believe that Carrie and women would do that to our cars! I may not be a guy, but I love my cars as much as the next guy! I am brought from my thoughts when I hear Lindsay squeal "TURN THIS UP!" she says
Then I realize it's Finger Eleven, of course this needs to be blasted as loud as the speakers can go!
"You do have great taste in music, Linds" I say, before turning it up. Then Greg starts doing the beats against the seats, while Lindsay and I sing along:
"I hold on so nervously to me and my drink. I wish it was cooling me. But so far, has not been good. It's been shitty and I feel awkward, as I should. This club has got to be the most pretentious thing since I thought you and me. Well I am imagining a dark lit place or your place or my place" We sing, I take a look at Catherine at that last line and I smile at her
"Well I'm not paralyzed! But, I seem to be struck by you! I want to make you move because you're standing still! If your body matches what your eyes can do you'll probably move right through me on my way to you!" we sing loudly into the car, while Catherine is smiling not knowing the song
"I hold out for one more drink before I think I'm looking too desperately. But so far has not been fun I should just stay home, if one thing really means one. This club will hopefully be closed in three weeks, that would be cool with me. Well I'm still imagining a dark lit place or your place or my place."
Then we continue singing the chorus and before we know it the song is finished. We moan our displeasure at the song being finished as we all really like that song
"I like that song…" I guess Catherine does too "Who is it, and what's the name of the song?" Catherine asks
"It's Paralyzer by Finger Eleven. It's an awesome song. We play this song all the time in our little band." I say
"Really?"
"Yep!" I say smiling
"I'd like to see that sometime" she says
"Maybe you can" I say, pulling off the highway towards the airport
We get Lindsay all checked in, now it's time for the goodbye's
"Bye, my wittle bunny wabbit Gweg" Lindsay laughs as she hugs Greg
"Shut up!" he says smiling "Have a safe flight, Linds. And tell Nick I'll give him a call when I have a free minute, please. You know what he's like when I don't call..." Greg says rolling his eyes
Lindsay laughs "Yeah, I know. You'd think he was a girl!"
Lindsay turns to me
"Thanks Sara" Lindsay says
"For what?" I ask
"For flying me out here. I needed to see my mom, and I'm sure she needed to see me. You're good for her, you know"
I blush at that statement "Well, you're both good for me. And I think I should be thanking you for helping me out with your mom yesterday"
"Eh, it's nothing" then she gives me a hug "I'm gonna miss you, Sara"
"Me too. We have a blast together"
"That we do! Oh! I got something for you…" Lindsay says, grabbing her backpack and searching through it. She pulls out a CD "I got this CD, it's already burned onto my computer at home and it's on my MP3 player, so here… have a listen. I think you'll like it" Lindsay says handing me the CD
"Daughtry? Isn't he from American Idol?" I say slightly disgusted. I'm not really one to follow the mainstream music, especially people from American Idol... all they do is audition and they get through basically based on their looks, they don't work as hard as all the other artists do to get where they are now. I do like a few songs, but Daughtry?!
"Yes, he's from American Idol. But it's his band. It's a really good CD. Believe me, you'll be amazed." She says
"Ok, I'll take a listen when your mom and Greg are at work"
"Awesome! Well, I gotta go say goodbye to Mom, now" she squeezes me, then kisses my cheek "Love you, Sar"
I almost cry… wow… she just said she loves me.
"Uh, you too kiddo" I reply, giving her a kiss on top of her head, then turning away to wipe away the tears threatening to fall
Lindsay walks over to Catherine and gives her a big hug
"Hurry back to Vegas, Mom. I'll miss you too much" Lindsay says, eyes filling with tears
"I'll miss you too, baby" Catherine replies crying
"Well, I need to go. I love you, Mom. And I'll call you when I land. And I will be good for Aunt Nancy, so don't even say that.." Lindsay says
"Ok, ok" Catherine kisses Lindsay's cheek "I love you, hon"
"I know, and I love you too" Lindsay replies "I'll see you guys, soon." She says, wiping the tears from her eyes, giving Catherine one last hug before walking towards the boarding gate.
I take a look at Catherine, and she's crying watching her baby girl walk away. I put an arm around Catherine
"She's a big girl now, Cath. But you've done a great job raising her, you know. I'd be proud to call Lindsay my daughter." I say trying to comfort Catherine
"I am proud to call her my daughter. I just can't believe how quickly she's growing up. It's like just yesterday she was in diapers and needed me and now she's grown up so much and she doesn't need me as much as she did then."
"She needs you just as much now as she did then. Believe me." I say giving her a quick kiss on the lips "Let's go, eh? She'll be ok"
"Ok, thanks Sara. You always know the right things to say. I think I can get used to you, you build up this ego of mine" she laughs
"Oh, well in that case... I better be careful that it doesn't blow up and leave me with brain all over my face" I stick out my tongue
I can't wait to get back to the hotel and get some sleep! I'm exhausted. After we dropped Lindsay off at the airport, we went and returned the drum set and mike.
We finally arrive at the hotel
"Oh! We're back! I'm so tired!" Catherine says
"I know what you mean" I say
I look back at Greg and he's sleeping against the window
"Greg… wake up. We're back at the hotel" I say
"Huh?! What?! We're here already?!" Greg says waking up
"Yep. Come on, you can go take a nap in a bed" I say smiling
"Ok, ok" Greg stretches and yawns before getting out, and Catherine and I follow
When we leave the elevator and turn to go to our rooms, I see two police officers waiting in front of my door. What the hell?
"Are you Sara Sidle?" an officer asks
"Um… yeah?" I say, confused
"Ok. Well Douglas Stoberman has woken from his coma, and he wishes to press charges against you"
"What?" Catherine and Greg ask
"Sara Sidle, you're under arrest for the asssault of Douglas Stoberman. You have the right to remain silent…" I don't hear the rest as I zoned out
What the hell am I gonna do now?!
Uh oh! What did I do now? I think I'd better run and hide from all the evil glares I'm gonna be getting! Oh! So evil, but I love it! MUAH HA HA HA HA!!
