Sidney pulled back the silk white curtains and watched the police cruiser pull out of the never ending driveway, which circled almost all the way in back of house which led to the back deck and pool, and drive onto the main road and disappear out of site.

Sidney and Mickey were out of their hands now...the two of them were safe.

It had been almost two years since she left Woodsboro with Randy, trying their best to put the past behind them and move forward...now look what had happened.

She took a deep sigh, she had gone through a lot in the past few days, and driving past all those side streets and buildings she had grown up to know...didn't help. Everything still seemed to much the same.

When they arrived in town, the skies had darkened and opened up...pouring rain fell on the lush spring grass and filled up the pool even higher out back. Everything smelled so clean and fresh.

Being home brought back so many feelings, she had a lot of history in this house...most if it was stuff she wished she could forget.

Her father was out of the country, and wouldn't return until next month...she was glad he didn't know what was going on, much like herself, he had gone to hell and back.

Sidney's thoughts were broken when she felt Mickey come up behind her and wrap his arms around her waist and lean down to kiss her lower neck, his spiky hair brushed up against the side of her smooth face and she closed her eyes and gave a relaxed sigh as he pressed his arm lips up against her snow white skin.

She leaned up against him and smiled as she tried to close off her thoughts and try and relax, they were safe now...just what she wanted, and alone.

But something hurt her inside...it was guilt.

Rain began to hit the glass windows around them, sounding like tiny pebbles.

"Why don't you show me around." Mickey said...in the conner of Sid's eye she saw he had a smile on.

Sidney smiled and spun around and took his hand

"My pleasure."

With that she showed him everything, every room and every square foot of the house, Sidney couldn't believe how she was starting to relax, and how excited she was showing him her stupid house. But everything made her laugh and smile about being there with him. He kept joking around, each time she led him to a different part of the house, how he could get lost if he looked around by himself.

She showed him from the windows, her yard, and the decks, she pointed around the woods which was behind the house and told him a million stories about her growing up, happy things that made her smile, and remember her childhood before everything had started.

At the end of her tour was her bedroom, she couldn't stop laughing since all four walls were still covered in posters of bands she thought three years ago was cool, Mickey just looked around and shook his head.

He then sat down on the edge of her bed and laid back, drumming his fingers against his stomach and starring up at the ceiling. Sidney looked at him and smiled, he was tried.

She then crawled onto the bed and laid back beside him, the two were only a few inches away and smiled, looking into their eyes. She then smiled and thanked him for going with her. Mickey smiled back and told her that with everything going on, he couldn't believe it would take this long for him to find out how much he cared about her. She then smiled and snuggled closer, no one knew that they were in town together, no one really how why of all times they would feel like this, but Sidney couldn't help it...she loved him, in just a matter of forty-eight hours she fell in love.

She couldn't loose him...not now.

The rain was getting heavy outside, a low rumble of thunder was coming from the hills.

The two of them looked at each other in the thin gray darkness of the room, the gray sky outside was their only thin light.

Her dark eyes, and his hazel ones locked together. She then pushed herself up and wiggled over on top of him, sitting on his lower stomach, her legs pulled back on each side of him. He laughed when she did this and said she was to heavy, but she gave him a playful slap and then when they both stopped laughing, they looked at each other and Sidney pushed some of her fallen hair that had got in her eyes. She then reached out and took hold of his hand and brought it up to hers.

"Promise me something."

He looked at her

"What?"

"Promise me...that you won't die, I've lost to many people all ready."

Her voice was starting to become uneven, and tears were filling up in her eyes, she had every right to happy at that moment, they were safe and away from all the madness, but she needed to say this out loud.

Mickey looked at her, his eyes set and said...

"I promise."

Tears then started to roll down Sid's cheeks, she gave a small laugh and then leaned down and put her head on his chest and more tears started to come out, she couldn't stop it. But he rubbed her back and tried to soothe her. When she finally did stop she looked at him and smiled and told him how sorry she was.

She knew she was starting to look weak all over again, she couldn't have that. So she used something else, the same thing that took away the pain and weakness the first time, she pulled her shirt over her head so Mickey could look at her perfect body, and threw it to the side.

Before the two of them even knew it they were going at it like madmen, they tore off each other's clothes and were in a frenzy, their hair became matted down in their faces, and sweat poured off them, they smacked their lips together and grasped at each other. But as Sidney laid down on the bed...the same bed where her and Billy were almost together less then two years ago, she saw Billy in her mind, his dark eyes and the look on his face as he raised the bloody knife into the air and said...

"Say hello to your mother!"

She then panicked inside, since it all seemed to real, she pushed Mickey away from herself and shouted "No!" Mickey was caught off guard from this, he had worked himself up and almost fell to the side.

"What is it?" he asked, his eyes filled with concern.

Sidney had to think quick, she couldn't let that spoil their good time, she needed to be with Mickey, he was the only way she could forget.

She then got herself under control and looked at him, biting her lip.

"Not here," she smiled, trying to brush it off...she looked at him, praying to God that he wouldn't think she was a psycho, but he smiled a little.

Sid then eyed the window, the rain was coming down pretty hard.

She then took his hand in hers again

"Come on."

And with that, they both went down to the pool together, it was pouring rain outside and made the water of the in ground pool, lap over onto the sides of the deck, the sky got darker and darker and everything was covered in the never ending rain. She led him into the warm water, he raised his eyebrows at first, but she laughed and told him she had always wanted to do this, but she never got a chance since her father was always home.

And with that, Sidney was able to act her age, the two of them swam in the crystal clear water, and each time they went up to the surface, the pelting cool water from the sky hit their faces.

Sidney for once, acted like the girl she used to be before her Mom died, the fun Sidney, who pushed all her worries away and let herself enjoy herself. She good about her body, and couldn't stop laughing, as she swam around, feeling the water around her.

Mickey's hair was soaked, Sid's was tied up...but kept getting in her eyes, looking darker and darker as the sky changed tints of color from the storm. The two of them then backed up against one side of the pool wall and she put her arms around his shoulders and kissed him as hard as she could, wrapping her legs around him and squeezing her eyes shut and gasping for hair as he went into her and held her tighter then she had ever been held before. She put her face up to the sky and let the water pour on her.

When he finished, He gave an almost painful groan and rested his head on her shoulder, he was breathing hard and was shaking just like her...and it wasn't because of the cold.

They went back into the house, it was night fall now, and they didn't even bother to turn on a single light. They threw down some pillows and blankets on the hard wooden floor in the living room, and laid down together, drying off in each other's arms. Sidney couldn't get close enough to him...she kept holding him and trying to get her shaking to calm down.

She had stopped thinking of what was going on back at the collage, she had stopped thinking of everyone who had all ready lost her lifes, she had stopped thinking of Gail and Dewey, or Hallie and Derek, she was in love with Mickey, he was the only thing that made her safe, and she wasn't about to let go.

Here they were, back at the place where it had all started, the one place where she thought she was going to die, but she knew wherever the killer was, maybe even back at school, he was far away from her now...and Mickey wasn't going to let anyone hurt her.

"I love you Sidney."

Sidney turned her head and looked at him.

"I love you to Mickey."

They then fell asleep together in each other's arms.
