A/N So here's the second and final chapter. Thanks so much for the reviews. It just so happens that the most popular choice for Sara's friend is my favourite too! So in this chapter I'll reveal their identity.
They say that silence is golden. Well right then it just felt uncomfortable. Neither party spoke on the car ride back to Sara's apartment, confirming her earlier worries. They were two friends who ordinarily had no problem chatting away for hours. Now, however, both were keenly aware that their friendship was caught in limbo.
There was potential to move forwards into intense, intimate new depths. She could sense their desire for her and figured that she too was radiating a similar emotion to them. However, if they took that step forwards, there would be no going back, They wouldn't be able to re-establish the same friendship they had had previously.
So now they were both torn. Did they play it safe and continue on in denial or risk their friendship for a new, exciting, potentially better form of partnership? Since these thoughts occupied both their minds they remained enveloped in silence until the car stopped outside Sara's building.
Sara swallowed nervously, still not sure where she wanted to go from here. Not wanting to seem ungrateful she invited them in for a drink. They accepted.
Sara closed the front door behind them and turned. They were watching her, a mixture of curiousness and amusement on their face. If she looked as terrified as she felt then she wasn't surprised that they found her funny. She suspected she looked as though she was about to go and have all her teeth extracted by some demonic dentist. She smiled nervously, before her eyes locked on their intense gaze.
Suddenly it struck her how much she wanted them, needed them. All her fears about possible consequences evaporated as she began to move towards them, slowly, almost as if she were hypnotised. In a way she was, unable to tear herself away from those amazing eyes. As soon as she was close enough they reached out and placed their hands on her hips, pulling her closer. They were so close she could feel their rapid heartbeat. They were as nervous as she was.
If the situation had been different, less intense, she would of laughed. The idea that a friend could have such an affect on her seemed ridiculous, but it wasn't. These feelings were very real.
Sara wrapped her arms around their waist, relishing the feel of their warm, firm body. She wet her lips in anticipation.
"Sara, are you sure?"
She closed her eyes, suddenly afraid by the raw emotion displayed on their face.
"Please, just kiss me Nick."
He didn't need telling twice. As his mouth made contact with hers, a wave of pleasure swept through her body. She parted her lips, allowing his tongue the access it sought. Their hands moved freely, exploring one another's bodies.
As the kiss intensified, Sara's confidence increased. She'd made the right choice. She had seen it in Nick's eyes. A feeling beyond the love of friends. She could trust him. She believed that now. When it comes to friendship, it feels right, it probably is. She took a chance and now her reward was leading her gently towards the bedroom. Without breaking the kiss she smiled.
Everyone needs somebody who'll reach out to them in the rain.
The end.
A/N I don't know if I'm happy with this chapter, but please review and let me know what you think. I hope I haven't upset too many people by making Nick the mystery person. In case you were wondering I wrote it using they instead of he/ she, because the second person I had in mind when I wrote the first chapter was Catherine, so I was keeping my options open. Hope you've enjoyed this.
