Right Here By Saz

~*~*~

I don't expect pain on her face as she opens the door. I don't expect the red, swollen eyes, nor the dull emotionless-ness of her eyes.

She looks at me but doesn't see me as she pushes the door open and walks back into the apartment. Concern makes me follow and grip her arm, making her face me.

"Sara?"

Tears roll down her cheeks as her eyes blaze with hurt and anger. Without benefit of words I know what he's done.

"Hold me Nick."

I'm only happy to comply and draw her into my embrace, eager to show her that I care.
