Chapter 27
Sara looked down at the food sitting in front of her. Chad decided to take her to a diner to talk. "What the hell has happened to you, huh? The Sara Sidle I know wouldn't let this shit beat the fucking piss out of her. Suck it up and be a man." Sara let the words sink into her head. "You don't understand." Her voice full of torment and pain, didn't sink into Chad's head. "The only thing I understand is that your being a baby! What happened to Sara 'Queen of the Streets' Sidle?" Sara poked the food on her plate with her fork, a saddened look on her face. "She died." Chad rolled his eyes, "Why is it women gotta make drama out of everything?" Sara shot him a glare. Chad grinned, 'At least I got some interaction.' Chad sighed and looked out the window towards the empty street.
"Sara, you gotta learn to let this go, the only thing your doing is killing yourself and the ones around you! Think about it! Catherine and Lindsey! If you don't care if you live then think about Catherine and Lindsey. You told me before that they were your world and gave you something to live for! How do you think they feel right now?!" Everyone in the diner stopped and eating and stared at them. Chad looked around, "What're you looking at!?" They all went back to eating their meals fearing Chad.
"Come on Sara, there's more to life than being miserable." Chad patted her on the shoulder and left the diner. "Damn it Chad, why do you always gotta be right?" Sara stood up and ran out of the diner to catch up to him. "Chad wait!" Chad stopped walking and turned around, "What?" Sara walked up to him punched him across the face. "Stop being right all the damn time!" Chad fell to the ground in shock but quickly recovered. "What the fuck!?" Chad got to his feet and tackled her to the ground. Sara growled and rolled them over and punched him in the face again. "Damn it Sidle!" Chad rolled them over and punched Sara wherever he could. "I'm not finished with you Chad!" Sara pushed him and quickly got to her feet, she ran over to Chad and kicked him hard in the stomach. He gasped for air when he saw Sara's foot aiming at his stomach again he grabbed it and twisted forcing Sara to fall to the ground. He grabbed her legs and dragged across the ground, but Sara reached up and grabbed his shirt forcing him to fall over her. They continued to fight on the ground for several minutes.
Sara breathed heavily while laying on the ground with Chad next to her also breathing heavely. "So...is the 'Queen of the Streets'... finally back?" Sara nodded, "...Yea..." Chad grinned and slowly sat up. "Glad to see you got that out of your system." Sara sighed and tried to ignore the pain that ran all over her body. But she knew that Chad wouldn't have cared if she was near death, he still would've fought with her. "After all these years, you can still hit pretty fucking hard." Sara chuckled, "You seem to be growing soft." Chad growled and tried to hit her but he couldn't even stand up. "Yea? Well at least I'm not getting uglier." Sara growled but on the inside she had to laugh. She missed her old friend. She missed feeling alive like this. "I should probably get home. I need to talk to Catherine." Chad nodded and watched as Sara struggled to her feet. "I'll call you a cab." Chad nodded and let his body fall back onto the ground.
The ride home was going to be difficult and Sara knew that. She couldn't think of what to say. Seeing Chad deffinently helped her out. She closed her eyes for a moment and sighed. Catherine's house was coming up soon, she decided to wing it.
As she walked in the door she could see a faint light coming from their bedroom. She took a deep breath and stood up strait, but the nervous and scared feeling she had wouldn't go away.
She walked into the room silently and her heart broke at the sight of Catherine crying in the middle of the bed with a pillow tight to her chest. Sara slowly walked forward and sat on the bed next to her lover. She wrapped her sore arms around her and pulled the blonde closer to her. "Sara?" She almost cried, "Shh, I'm here." Catherine let out a cry and snuggled deeper into Sara's arms.
Yea this chapter is short. Hopefully the next one is longer. Sorry for the crappiness but I'm back on my feet with this story. You gotta take baby steps before you can run.
