Strangers
By Saz
Sequel to Still Holding On
~*~
Sara's face is impassive and I begin to wonder if I've overstepped the bounds. I shove my hands into my pockets, waiting for her to reply, waiting for her to tell me to go away.
But she doesn't, instead she stands there studying me.
I shuffle my feet nervously. "I owe you an explanation too."
"No," she responds, voice quiet, "You don't."
I feel my brow furrow. Is this her way of coping, by pretending it never happened?
"Yes, I do. I was out of line, Sara. I didn't mean to hurt you."
She sighs softly. "Let's talk inside, Nick."
