We get to see some PunkyMonkey friendship in this, as well as some ProPunk! Hope you like it!
The past week has been crazy. We've been running all over the place sight seeing and what not. Kira's been having a blast. We saw Times Square, the statue of liberty, Central Park, The Brooklyn Bridge, and multiple other things. We went in the Toy's R Us in Time's Square and Kira got to ride the mini Ferris wheel in there. Felix and Mrs. S joined us last night, both of them excited to be in America. I was having fun, but in the back of my mind, I was always thinking about Rachel. She had opened up to me. She started seeming more and more human. Kira missed her too, she kept asking when Auntie Rachel was coming, much to the annoyance of Cosima.
Cosima and Delphine have been doing there best to keep an eye on Rachel and what she's doing. Delphine has been talking to topside, who did not agree with my imprisonment. Every move Rachel makes is told to Delphine. Cosima had us all using our clone phones and had us throw away our track able phones. It's been hectic and I don't know what's going to happen when we go back. I know I'll have to see Rachel again. I want to see her again. I need to know if everything she said is true. I know it's weird to be falling for my clone, but really, the only thing the same about us is our face.
"What was the point of all this, Cosima?" I inquire as we lay side by side. Cosima turns her head to look at me and squints her eyes. "What do you mean? It was to get you out of there." My clone replies confused. "Yeah, but why go out of the country. We have to go back, I'm going to see her again." I sigh. "What's going to happen then?" Cosima shrugs. "Well hopefully by then, she would of had time to calm her anger and you guys can have a proper conversation." Cosima smiles. "Without you being imprisoned again, of course." I let out a small laugh. "Yeah. Obvs." I say mocking her. She pushes my shoulder laughing. "I've missed this, Cos." I say seriously. "Me too. It's good to be just us, everyone else out sight seeing, just us sisters." Cosima muses.
"We need more sister time." I turn and nuzzle myself into Cosima's neck. She wraps her arms around me and rests her head on top of mine. "I know. Everything's always so crazy anymore." Cosima sighs. "Promise me more sleepovers and gossip?" Cosima holds out her pinky. I laugh and wrap my pinky around hers. "I promise." We both laugh at the her childish nature. "Have you talked to Alison?" I ask. Cosima nods against my head. "She is doing fine, her and Donnie have not been bothered by Rachel or anyone from Dyad. It's surprising, really." Cosima laughs. "I figured that's where they would go first." I muse. Before Cosima can say anything, we are interrupted by my clone phone ringing. I groan and untangle myself from Cosima's grasp, reaching over to the bedside table and answering the phone without looking at the ID.
"Yeah?" I answer grumpily, not liking being interrupted. "Where are you?" A light but stone cold British voice comes through the phone. I freeze and my eyes go wide. Cosima looks at me confused and I hold up one finger. "Sarah. Where are you?" The voice asks again. "Rachel." I sigh. Cosima stands up off the bed, looking startled, looking much how I feel. "How'd you get this number?" I wonder. "Sarah, I want to know where you have gone." Rachel orders. I look at Cosima with wide eyes not knowing what to do. Cosima shakes her head at me. "Don't tell her anything." Cosima shouts. "Sarah. Don't listen to her. You've had me worried sick, I deserve to know where you are." I run my free hand through my hand, not knowing what to do. "Rachel, I'm sorry." I apologize. "I cant tell you." Cosima nods at me, telling me I've done the right thing.
On the other line Rachel sighs. "When are you coming back?" Rachel inquires. "We need to talk." I snort a laugh. "You gonna lock me up again? Take my daughter?" I ask incredulously. "I don't think so." I remark. "I do not wish to do that anymore." Rachel says calmly. "Really?" I retort sarcastically. "Yes. I just want to talk." Rachel assures. "Then talk." I growl, growing frustrated. "In person. Tell me where you are and I will come get you." Internally, I fight with myself. Most of me is curious about what she has to say, the other part is scared of being locked up again. I look at Cosima, my eyes begging for help. Cosima sighs and runs her fingers through her dreads. "I'll keep Kira safe. You love her. Go." Cosima tells me. I give her a small smile. "Sarah?" Rachel's voice snaps me back to the conversation at hand. "If we do this, we talk. That means you listen to what I have to say too."
"I will, Sarah, but you have to tell me where you are." Rachel reminds me. "Long Island, New York." Rachel go quite for a moment. "I'll be there in two hours." She hangs up. I sit my phone back down and look at Cosima. "Thank you." I whisper. She crosses the room and hugs me. "You really love her don't you?" Cosima asks. "I think I do." I shake my head. "I don't know. I've never loved a girl, let alone my own clone." I laugh. "It's kind of creepy, isn't it?" Cosima shakes her head. "No, love is love. We can't control our hearts." Cosima pulls back from our hug to look at me. "Even if you fall for the most complicated person ever." Cosima chuckles. "You sure you're going to be okay with Kira?" I worry. "Of course. Mrs. S and Felix are here too, and she loves Delphine, more than me I think." I shake my head at that statement. "No. She completely admires you." I kiss her cheek. "She wants to be a scientist now." I inform her. Cosima's eyes light up at the information. "Well, you better get packed." Cosima reminds me. "You're going to have a long day with the proclone." I nod and start throwing my clothes from the dresser drawers on the bed.
It takes about thirty minutes for me to get all of my clothes packed. After I'm done, I call Mrs. S's clone phone. "Hello love." She answers. "Hey. I'm leaving for a little bit. Rachel is coming to get me. I have to talk to her." Mrs. S goes silent. "How did she find us?" My foster mothers voice is steel. "She found my number somehow." There's a pause on the other side of the line. "Why don't you tell me what this talk is really about, chicken." She requests. "You can't leave me." I rush out. "Sarah." Her voice softens. "Have I ever left you?" I shake my head, forgetting that she cant see me. "I'm falling for her." I tell her. She goes silent for a few minutes, making me fear the most. "Well then, you better go get her then, yeah?" I smile and a tear makes its way down my cheek. "Yeah." I whisper. "I'll explain to Kira. Make sure you keep in touch until we get back." We say our goodbyes and as I hang up the phone I get a text message.
"Rachel's almost here." I tell Cosima nervously. "That was fast." Cosima remarks. I nod and grab my suitcase. "I have to meet her at the airport." I kiss Cosima on the cheek. "I love you, Cos." Cosima smiles. "I love you too." I walk out the door and hail a taxi, telling him where to go, and getting in the backseat. I watch as all the cars and trees pass by, feeling butterfly's in my stomach at the thought of seeing Rachel. Rachel who has tortured and imprisoned me, but somehow captured my heart as well. Rachel, who I've seen many sides of, the sinister and truthful, the human and the robot. I pay the taxi driver when he pulls up outside of the airport entrance. And right outside of the car, stands Rachel. I step out of the car and nervously scratch the back of my neck.
"Hello Sarah." Rachel greets. "Hey." I reply as I grab my luggage. "We have a couple hour flight, I think that's long enough for our talk?" Rachel's voice is so proper and calm. I nod and follow behind her as she starts walking. Her high heels click on the tiled floors as we walk through the airport to a flight gate. "Ms. Duncan." A worker greets as he motions for us to walk onto the ramp to get on the plane. "I'll take them, Ms. Manning." The man motions to my luggage. I hand it to him, not questioning how he knows my name.
We step onto the high class private jet, and I look around amazed with my surroundings. "Wow." I stand in awe. "Have you never been on a plane before?" Rachel chuckles. "I fly coach. So this is different." I inform her. "Drink?" She asks walking over to the small bar. "Got any bourbon?" I walk to the bar with her. She pulls out an expensive looking bottle and pours me a glass. "So, you left." Rachel declares suddenly. "Yes." I answer. "Why?" She looks up at me. "You had me imprisoned to one place. I needed freedom, Rachel." I explain. "From me?" She looks hurt. "From Dyad." I correct her. "I suppose I understand." Rachel states.
"What are we Rachel?" I question. "Are we fuck buddies? Or do I actually mean something? Cause I'm so confused." I exclaim. Rachel sits down in her seat and motions towards mine. I sit down and fasten my seat belt. Not long after the plane starts to move. "Of course you mean something, Sarah." Rachel voices. "You always have." The plane tilts as the wheels leave the ground, sending us airborne. "So what now?" I inquire. We sit in silence for a minute, both of us sipping on our drinks. "Let me take you on a date." Rachel says suddenly. "Okay."
