Here we go, next chapter just like I promised!

I noticed that the last few reviews have been about how it's painful what they're doing to each other.

And it really is, I guess it just shows how much of myself I actually put into my writing.

Obviously, this exact situation never happened to me but I've been through the whole falling for your best friend thing.

It was hard. REALLY hard.

Which is probably why this story-line meant so much to me, and why it hurt so much finding out Sacha was leaving :(

But anyway, I hope this was emotional enough for you guys, I hope I did it justice, I know sometimes when I start reading a story I get an idea of what happens and when it doesn't go like that i'm slightly disappointed, so hopefully it doesn't disappoint TOO much.

As always, please review I love your feedback, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside (and sometimes makes me blush)

Enjoy! :)

P.S: In case I happen to be writing about when they were in school again, I'd just like to say i'm sorry if I get it completely wrong, i'm Irish and the Irish and British schooling systems are completely different. I have very little knowledge of them so I apologize if you're British and i'm way off the mark!

Sophie ran out onto the street and began frantically looking all around for that one person she couldn't live without.

She was scanning her brain as quickly as possible to figure out where Sian might be headed.

And she knew almost immediately.

Sophie darted around the corner, and sure enough who was sitting on the bench at the bus stop, reading what people had written on it, only Sian.

Sophie slowly made her way over and sat down on the bench beside her.

They sat in silence for a few minutes, Sophie was waiting for Sian to start yelling at her and telling her what a bad friend she was, and in truth she knew she deserved it, but nothing. It was as if Sian hadn't even seen her sit down, she was concentrating on a particular piece of writing.

"You remember the day we wrote this?" Sian said, finally speaking.

Sophie looked at the blonde sitting beside her, trying to figure out whether she was angry or not. She wasn't. All Sophie could see was pain in her eyes.

"I remember. It was the same day you and Ryan broke up. We had had a fight before it, when you thought I made a pass at him. And after you found out the truth, you came to me straight away. I took you here, and we wrote it, and signed it. If I remember right, you wanted to sign it in blood" Sophie laughed a little and noticed she had gotten a small smile from her best friend, before she looked at what was written on the bench.

"Forever" She said back to herself.

"Yeah… Forever" Sian sighed, before looking up at Sophie, tears forming in her eyes.

"Look Soph… I love you. I'm in love with you. Why do you think I'm always snuggling into you? And touching you constantly? I think I've loved you since the first day we met, and I haven't told you because I was afraid. I was afraid you wouldn't feel the same and I'd lose you, because regardless of how I feel, you mean the world to me and I couldn't live without you, as a friend or more. I didn't want this to happen, but I couldn't pretend anymore. I couldn't pretend that every time you hugged me goodbye, I hoped you wouldn't let go, I hoped you would tell me to stay. And all the times that you cried, I wanted to hold you and tell you everything would be okay, and that I would never let anyone or anything hurt you. I've completely ruined this, and I understand if you don't want to see me right now. But, I just hope that one day, you can forgive me… and we can be friends again."

Sian got up off the bench; tears free flowing down her beautiful cheeks, turned around and began walking home.

Sophie could feel the emotion building up inside her, and waited for the tears to fall. But nothing came out. She didn't recognise this feeling, it was almost… confident. She felt an urgency, and she looked up in the direction the blonde had taken.

Don't let her go.

"… I won't."

Sophie didn't know what had come over her, but before she knew what she was doing, she had gotten up off the bench and began running after the love of her life. She seen her, and she was almost at her house. Sophie knew she wouldn't get to her before she got back to her house.

"Sian!" She yelled breathlessly.

The blonde didn't turn around.

"Sian! Wait! Please! I…." Sophie stopped out of breath, and looked up, she was about to open her door.

"I LOVE YOU TOO!" She yelled with everything in her, before falling to the ground exhausted.

Sophie sat on the curb, eyes closed, trying to catch her breath.

"… You what?" she heard a familiar voice. Her voice. She heard me.

I looked up, into those dazzling blue eyes. Their usual sparkle hadn't been in her eyes at the bus stop, but now it was back, her eyes looked hopeful. I couldn't get a sentence out as I could hardly breathe. Sian sat down beside me and waited.

"I… I love you" I said finally, as I took Sian's hand in mine and looked into her eyes.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything, for being hot and cold all the time, for being honest with you one minute and then ignoring you the next. It's just… I've loved you since the first moment I met you too. At the bus stop, when you asked me the time for the bus, and I saw you for the first time… you took my breath away. And ever since then, you take my breath away everyday… Look at me now for god's sake, I fell over from a lack of breath!"

She giggled as she played with my fingers. God, I love her.

"But seriously, all those times that I pulled away, was only because I was scared. Scared you would figure out how I felt. I was scared of losing you, because you're my everything. You're always on my mind, not a day goes by that I don't think about you, or think about us. You're beautiful in every way and I can't believe how lucky I am to have found you. You're it for me Sian."

I gave her hand a squeeze and looked at her, tears falling from her eyes again. But they were happy tears this time. I put my hand on her cheek, and gently wiped them away with my thumb before smiling at her.

"I love you more than words can say." I said honestly, looking straight into her eyes. To show her how much it was true. We took each other in for a moment, before Sian leant in and whispered "I love you too". With that, I leant in the rest of the way, and captured her lips with mine.

It was everything I dreamed of. Her lips were so soft, so perfect. The kiss was slow at first, we were just exploring each other, but it soon grew in demand as we needed to get out all of our pent up frustration, and show the other how much it meant to us.

She pulled away, and I whimpered a little at the loss of contact. She smiled widely.

"You realise we're sitting on a curb outside my house don't you?" she said laughing slightly.

"So?" I said bluntly.

"SOOOO, we're on display for the whole world to see…" she leant in again, this time to whisper something in my ear. "And… as much as I want to rip your clothes off right here, I don't think it would be a good idea… Mrs. Goodwin has a testy heart, y'know" she winked at me as she pulled away.

She wants to rip your clothes off…

That can be arranged…

"Well…." I said placing my lips dangerously close to hers "… My heart wouldn't be too calm either if you started taking my clothes off…"

I pressed my lips to hers again. This kiss was a lot more passionate. The last was full of love, but this… this was pure lust and full of heat. I tangled my hands in her hair and tried to pull her more into me, I needed to be closer to her, this just wasn't close enough.

You know, if you took her clothes off she would be A LOT closer to you…

Hmmm… she would, wouldn't she…

Jesus Sophie, mind out of the gutter, have some class.

…

Oh, screw class, I wanna screw her.

This time it was me that pulled away. Albeit, reluctantly.

"Okay… okay… you're right we can't do this here… My place?" I said, a little nervously.

She looked up at me, a glint in her eye. She grabbed my hand and pulled me up off the curb, and we walked… Okay, ran… back to my empty house.
