Disclaimer: I do not own Christopher, Nikolas, Sarah, or Nissa. I wish I did because that would be so kewl and I would actually make some new friends.

Then It Happened

Sarah made the gap between her and Christopher become more narrow then it was. She was so tempted to kiss his lips. The lips that she had kissed once before and wanted more. Sarah had missed having him that close to her and then he stopped her.

"Sarah...I know what you are trying to do. I could tell that you wish to have me once again by the look in your eyes."

"I'm sorry I couldn't help it. I had to atleast try and see if there was something still between us," Sarah said as a look of disappointment devoured her face.

Christopher saw the look that captivated her and felt a little more angry. He was angry at himself for putting her in so much pain, for making Nissa worried, and for not being able to make sure Lily and Nissa were okay. The hate grew more when he saw a tear be released from Sarah's eye.

"Please don't cry. You deserve better then me," he tried his best to console her.

"I can't help but cry at the fact that your love for me is no longer there. I also cry because I let myself get so vulnerable and I feel like such a helpless being."

Sarah collapsed into her knees as they scrunched up against her body. He could see that she was falling into a shallow depression. Her tears ran down her legs and they started to trickle down faster. Christopher saw the puddle that was forming under his feet and knew that her tears were sincere.

He wrapped his arms around her fluctuating body and slide her closer to him. She saw that he was trying to comfort her so she shifted her hug from her legs to him. Sarah held him tight and as if he was about to fall from a cliff.

Just then there was a beating at the door and soon it broke down.

Christopher and Sarah stared at the newly broken door and saw two figures run down the staircase.

"Christopher?" said the two figures as if they had the same voice.

Sarah grabbed tighter onto Christopher.

"How could you? Nissa and I thought you were in danger and we catch you here hugging the enemy?" said Lily as she started to cry.

"Lily, he isn't like that and look he is bleeding!" said Nissa as she tried to make a logical conclusion.

"Sarah isn't the person we thought she had come to be. It was Dominique who turned herself into Sarah. It was a revenge plot!" said Christopher as he let go of Sarah.

Sarah reluctantly let go of him and looked at Lily with such an envy. She knew that Lily held his heart but at the same time she knew that Lily was jealous.

There were shouts coming from the doorway.

"We have to get out of here!" yelled Nissa as she ran towards the door.

Sarah knew what she had to do. She tooked the keys and unlocked his ankles.

Christopher looked at Sarah and whispered, "thanks. I owe you one."

Lily, Chrisopher, and Nissa fled the building and got as far away as they could.

Sarah was left there to explain herselfto Dominique. She felt more upset then when he left her the first time.

"I had him before and I had him just now but I let him go. He could have been mine I was so close and then...she showed up. Ugh! I am such a fool at times!" yelled Sarah as she punched the table shattering it.

Her mother walked in the room just in time to see her daughters rage.

"Let me guess...you let him free?"

"Yes. Don't you see that the chains are laying on the floor with no one attached?"

"And why did you let me catch him in the first place if you were going to end up releasing him?"

"I wanted him to know that he crushed my heart into a thousand unrepairable pieces. I wanted to convince him to come back to me and be mine and only mine," Sarah released a tear after she realized what she had done a few moments ago.

"I caught him once and I will not do it again. This time you are on your own and I can only wish you luck. If you honestly love that vampire then don't give up. Remember you can never force someone to love you. Just be careful and don't let yourself crumble."

With that said Dominique left the room and let Sarah think about her words of wisdom.

"She is right this is my fight."

Somewhere...

"What are we going to do now?" asked Lily as she adjusted Christopher's position.

"First thing we should do is prop him against this tree. I am starting to get tired of being his support"

They lowered him slighting and let him lean against the tree. They were in a forest somewhere outside of town and far enough from the "torture house." All they could do now is rest and help Christopher gain his strength.

"I think I am going to find a cave or something for us to stay in. The sun is risen and the trees aren't going to help our cover for much long," said Nissa as she walked away.

"Lily?"

She turned away from him and pretended that she didn't hear him.

"I understand that you are upset with me. You have a right to be but I want you to know that Sarah wanted me back."

"I guess we should have left you there then," said Lily with a low tone.

"No, I am glad that you and my sister came to my rescue. What I am trying to say is that I turned her down. I love you and only you, Lily. I hope you feel the same way towards me," said Christopher with a smile forming.

Lily looked at the ring that he had given her a week or so ago. She closed her eyes to remember that glourious night. Lily smiled and felt all the emotions flow into her mind throughout her blood stream.

"I love you too. It just hurt to see Sarah, the girl you had once loved, in your arms. She was so close to you and I guess I got jealous."

Lily turned to face Christopher and didn't realized that he stood on his own two feet. He grabbed her in a tight embrace and planted a sweet, vigorious kiss on Lily's lips. The emotion was mutual and full of a passion only true love can provide. They were truely in love.

"Well...I am..." Nissa was cut off when she saw they were involved with a kiss.

Nissa smiled and sat on a near by boulder. She loved the fact that they were back in each other's arms. She had always loved when her brother showed so much love towardsa girland knew that the same girl showed the exact amount back. To Nissa it was like a fairy tale unfolding infront of her eyes.

They broke the kiss and just stared into one another's eyes.

Christopher turned as he heard a clap from a distance.

"Oh...hello there..." said Chrisopher as he let go of Lily.

"I didn't mean to interrupt your little moment. I came to tell you and Lily that I had found a burrow big enough for the three of us. Shall we go or should I wait until you two are done?"

Lily smiled and blushed a bit as she said, "we should go now before we are found here."

"Well I guess you got your answer Nissa."

The three of them walked to the cave and knew that this was the beginning of something big.
