A/N: Ok, so I did something stupid…oh well. I just deleted "He Drives Me Insane." I meant to delete a different story, but I wasn't paying attention…y'all can figure out what happened next. Grr… worst part is that I don't have it saved on my comp anywhere. Alrighty then…I guess I'll restart it, if I feel like it. This Chapter contains the lyrics to "Someday" by Nickelback. Please review…this chapter took me doing some serious think ahead planning…hope I'm going in the right direction here! Let me know! Enjoy!
End of A Relationship
John's POV:
How the hell did we wind up like this
Why weren't we able
To see the signs that we missed
And try to turn the tables
I was still waiting for Sara to reply to my plea. I didn't want us to be over…I just wish it hadn't taken this for me to realize it. Sara was just staring at me, and then she walked away. I followed behind her, and we walked into Randy's office room. She picked up some papers that were sitting on the fax machine, and turned back to look at me.
I wish you'd unclench your fists
And unpack your suitcase
Lately there's been too much of this
Dont think its too late
"I guess it's convenient that you showed up here. Now we can sign the papers. Sara quietly said.
Papers, what papers? Oh shit, she means divorce papers!
"We should probably go sit down and go over these." Sara said as she left the room. I once again followed her to the kitchen, and sat down across from her.
"Sara, I don't want to do this." I commented, as she slid me the signed bunch of papers.
Nothin's wrong
just as long as
you know that someday I will
"It's over between us John. We let a good thing die, I just don't see us ever being able to work this out, and I'll never look at you the same. I can't stand the man you've become." Sara replied.
We both sat in silence for a few minutes, until I looked up from the divorce papers.
"If you really mean all that you said, I will sign these papers. Tell me one thing though; tell me that you don't love me anymore. Look me straight in the eye and say that 'I don't love you John' and then I'll sign and be on my way." I said, trying one last attempt to reconcile.
Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)

I saw a tear roll down Sara's cheek, and then she looked away from me.
"Sara, I need your answer." I commented, as I felt myself getting torn up inside.
Well I hoped that since we're here anyway
We could end up saying
Things we've always needed to say
So we could end up stringing
Now the story's played out like this
Just like a paperback novel
Lets rewrite an ending that fits
Instead of a hollywood horror
Sara's POV:
It wasn't supposed to be this hard for me. I shouldn't be feeling the way I am right now. John wants me to answer him, why can't I answer. I looked back at John's face, and saw the anticipation.
Nothin's wrong
just as long as
you know that someday I will
"John, you know that I will always love you. You were my first, I thought you would be my last, you almost died for me. I owe you my life, and you know that I'll always be grateful for what you did. You are the father of my child, I will always love you, but I am not in love with you anymore." I said, with sincerity.
He looked shocked that I had actually said it. I was shocked that I had managed to say it without sobbing.
Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)

"Ok, where do I sign?" John mumbled.
"Right there." I pointed. This was tearing him up just as much as it was me, but I still wanted this divorce.

"What do you want, how much a month or whatever." John said, as he finished signing the papers.
"I don't want anything John. I have enough money on my own, I just want the house. That's all." I replied.

"What about Bri." John asked, as he starred out the window.
"John, you can see Bri whenever you want. You can take her whenever, I would never take your daughter away from you. I don't want Brianna losing you." I replied. "In fact, do you want to take her for a few weeks? She hasn't seen you in the longest time."
"Yea, I'd like that." John answered.
We heard Randy and Bri coming up the front steps, and tried to act happy so that Bri wouldn't get upset.
"Mommy, Daddy!" Bri shouted as she bounded through the door. She ran over and wrapped her arms around my legs, and then turned and got picked up by John.
"Hey princess!" John exclaimed as he hugged Bri. "How would you like to come with daddy for a little while?"
"Yea! Go wit Daddy!" Bri squealed.
"Alright, go grab her stuff John." I replied.
"Ok. Come on Bri, we gotta get going!" John said, as he put Bri down.
"Okey Dokey!" Bri replied, following John to the guest room.
Ten minutes later John and Brianna were ready to hit the road, and Randy had volunteered to give them a ride to the airport. I was standing at the doorway, as John and Bri were about to walk out.
"Mommy, you come too?" Bri asked.
"No, mommy can't come with you guys. Mommy has a lot of work to do! Have fun with daddy ok? Love you." I replied, choking up.
"Ok, love you too mommy!" Bri replied, as she turned to run towards the car.
John looked at me, and gave me a weak smile, and then mouthed the word "bye" as he followed after Brianna. Randy walked out after them, and waved bye to me. I managed a smile, and waved, as they pulled out of the parking lot. After I watched Randy's truck disappear around the corner, I shut the door, and crashed on the couch. I hugged a pillow tight to my chest, and began crying. What do I do now?
Someday, somehow
gonna make it allright but not right now
I know you're wondering when
(You're the only one who knows that)
