Alex Rider and the Search for Love- Sarah, Food Poising

Alex woke up to a slight knocking. He got up, and looked at the clock. It was 3:00 a.m. yet another night Alex was awoken.

Alex opened the door Sabina rushed in and closed the door behind herself.

"What?" Alex asked.

Sabina put her finger to her lips and then spoke; "She's going to kill you. Sarah. She's going to kill you." She whispered.

Alex sat on his bed. "Sab, you are over reacting." He said, "Now let me go to sleep." He laid down and put the pillow over his head.

Sabina grabbed the pillow and threw across the room, breaking a lamp. "You don't get it! She's working for someone who is GOING to kill you!" Sabina's eyes got moist and a tear fell.

"Sab, you're imagining it okay? You're scared! Why don't you get your room changed?" He said.

"KILL Alex! Kill you! Why don't you believe me?" She said tearfully.

"Sab, why don't you stay here tonight? You're obviously scared. Here, I'll get some blankets and a pillow, you can have the bed." Alex said and got up.

Sabina looked at him. "You always used to believe me, why not now?" She asked.

"Sab, just get a good nights rest okay?" Alex said, kissed her on the cheek and laid down on the floor, and soon fell asleep. Sabina climbed into the bed, and wrapped the sheets around her. She breathed in and loved the sent. She soon drifted off into a deep slumber.

Sabina woke up to the sound of one annoying alarm. "TURN IT OFF!" She yelled. Alex emerged from the bathroom, toothbrush in his mouth and a pair of jeans and a white muscle shirt.

"Oh no. You're a morning person." Sabina groaned.

"Yes come one! Get up!" Alex said.

"No way in hell. It's Saturday for heavens sake! Haven't you heard of sleeping in?" Sabina said sitting up. "How long have you been up?"

"Since 6:00. I went for a jog, took a shower ate breakfast and came back here." He said.

"Over achiever." Sabina muttered. She got up and walked to the door.

"Going so soon?" Alex asked, leaning agenst the wall.

"I'm going to sleep some." She said.

"Are you taking my sheets?" He asked.

"Yes, they smell good." Sabina said and walked out of the room, shutting the door behind her.

Alex laughed and smiled, and continued brushing his teeth.

Sabina walked down the hall and back into her room, and slept some. When she woke up, about an hour later, she cursed at Alex for waking her. She took a shower and got cleaned up.

Walking down the hall to meet Alex for a day of shopping, she saw Sarah.

"Hope you're not going somewhere with MY boyfriend." Sarah said smirking.

"Your boyfriend? Hell no, he won't take you back. Not after what you did." Sabina said in disgust.

"He won't believe you. I'm his girlfriend remember?" She smiled and said, "I could do it you know. I could kill you, right now." She took out a gun and looked at it. "But I rather prefer a more painful death." She laughed, "Have a nice day." She turned around and walked down the hall.

Sabina stood there looking terrified, short of breathing. She saw Alex from the corner of her eye. "Hey! I was looking for you!" He said.

"I was sleeping in a bit late, sorry." Sabina couldn't tell Alex what Sarah had just said. He wouldn't believe her anyways, he would send her off to a mental institute. "Ready?" She asked.

"Yeah, lets go."

Sabina laughed as Alex and she were walking down the mall. Sabina finally saw the store she was looking for. She grabbed Alex by the wrist and said, "Come on!"

Sabina walked into American Eagle and started to pick out things. "Are those for me?" Alex asked.

"No Alex, I just wear men's clothes." Sabina rolled her eyes.

"Oh, you do?" He asked confused.

Sabina laughed and handed him some clothes. "Just go try these on! And come show me when you're done." She said. Alex went to the dressing rooms and bumped into Sarah.

"Hey! I didn't expect to see you here!" She said sweetly. Alex noticed something in her eyes, something different.

"Yeah, well I got to go." Alex said trying to walk away, but Sarah caught his arm.

"But why? I am your girlfriend after all; don't you want to spend time with me?" She pleaded and pulled puppy dog eyes.

"You are NOT my girlfriend, not after what you did to Sabs."

"Aw, a pet name for her? And I was just as shocked. I did not do it." She said. "Sab is my friend, we are like sisters."

"Cut the shit out! Dont you EVER call her Sab and you are not her friend none of the less sister." Alex said harshly.

"Think whatever Alex, but you'll regret leaving me. I'm everything you want, and you just threw it all away." Sarah said sharply.

"NEVER come near me or Sabina again, is that clear?" Alex said grabbing her arm and having a tight grip.

" Crystal." She said, smiled and Alex let go. She took one last look and walked away.

Sabina came up and said, "Do you like everything?" She asked.

"It's great. I love it, couldn't ask for anything better." He said and kissed her on the cheek.

"Good." She smiled sweetly. She took money out of her pocket, but Alex insisted he pay for it. Sabina rolled her eyes and let him be.

They walked out of the store, hand and hand.

Sabina and Alex and their friends sat down for dinner. Sabina bit into her roll, thought it tasted a bit funny.

"Does anyone think that their roll tastes funny?" She asked.

"No." They all shook their heads. She shrugged and kept eating.

Sabina was on the bathroom floor, after throwing up for the millionth time that day. She leaned agesnt the wall groaning. Her stomach hurt from puking so much. There was only one explanation for this.

Food Poising and Sarah.

Sabina saw a shadow above her and looked up, and towing over her, was her.

"Haven't you done enough?" She said coldly to Sabina.

"Oh no, I haven't." She said.

"Why do you want me? All you want is to get to Alex!" She said standing up, her stomach jolting again.

"Because, If you live, you know everything, seen too much. Like I said, I rather you have a painful death. Many trials. Alex too. Every time I tear you apart, he gets weaker, I get stronger. Then, my mission is done and I get my money." She smiled.

Sabina felt like throwing up again, and did, but didn't make it to the toilet.

"You BITCH!" Sarah yelled and pushed her into the shower/tub. It was no use Sabina just stood back up.

"You can call me wahtever you want Sarah, but you need help. I don't know who you are, or who you're working for, but you need HELP." She said, walking out of the bathroom.

"ALEX! ALEX WHERE ARE YOU?" Sabina stomped into the room.

"What?" He asked.

"Again." She answered.

"Again? What?"

"Again. She tried to hurt me once more." She replied.

"What?" He asked.

"Don't worry, I threw up on her. She poisned my food. Simple posin you see. Lasts no more than 2 hours. Called me a bitch, pushed me and I told her to get help." She explained.

"Sab..." Alex started.

"Don't." She said. "I'm leaving tomarrow. Forever. You ethier stay with that crazy bitch, or you come with me. It's your choice. I'm leaving at 6 a.m. sharp. If you're coming, you meet me in the front of the school at 5:45 a.m. Not 5:45:01 5:45. Understand?" She said firmly.

Alex nooded. "Yes." He replied.

"Good night." She said, and walked out the door. Alex grabbed a bag and started to pack.

NOTE: I had the idea to drown Sabina, when Sarah pushed her she was going to be out coldandSabina ened up in the hospital once again (i was gunna let her live by the way), tell me if you liked that better. KeLSeY
