So as some of you may know, I absolutely love NeverShoutNever, which I cannot explain but I do. So the next couple of fics with loosely be based off a few of Christofer Drew's songs that have been stuck in my head lately. Don't worry if you don't like the songs though, it will only be a line or two from each. I just wanted to give you a heads up.

"Connor, are you are going to answer that or not?" Abby asked. She was propped up against pillow on the couch, her feet in Connor's lap, glaring at the phone at the coffee table. The two had the day off, Abby because she had only just been released from the hospital a few days before due to a creature hunt that didn't go as smoothly as they hoped, and Connor because Lester was adamant on the fact that she could not be left on her own if she could barely walk.

"Not," he told her with a bit of a growl.

"Don't snap at me, Conn," Abby warned him. "I didn't do anything. If you are going to be snippy go somewhere else."

Connor sighed, and looked over at her with a weak smile. "You're right. I'm so sorry, Abby. It's just, I don't understand why she did it. If she didn't want to be together anymore why didn't she just tell me? Why did she have to sleep with my best mate?"

"What makes you think I would know that? Sarah and I are completely different, what makes you think we would think the same? Besides, I thought I was your best mate."

Connor threw her a glare. "You know very well I was talking about male mates."

"I was just trying to lighten the mood. If your blasted phone rings one more time though, I'm throwing it out the bloody window. It's annoying. Just call her back and either dump her or work things out."

"She slept with Becker! Why aren't you upset too?" Connor asked her. "I thought you two were dating. Now that I think about it, not that I mind looking after you, why isn't soldier man doing so?"

"Connor, pay attention," she told him with a scoff. "We broke that off weeks ago."

"Then where have you been going every Saturday?" he asked confused.

"The gym, the kickboxing group that I told you about. Do you not remember me telling you about that? Caroline is in it?" she continued hoping to spark his memory.

"You're in a kickboxing group with Caroline? Are you two mates or something now?" Connor asked confused.

"Far from it. It is nice to beat the shit out of her though," she grinned. "Though the group leader does tend to keep us on the other side of the room. Maybe Sarah sleeping with Becker was for the better. You've been really out of it since the two of you started dating. I mean really, Conn, most the time I have to repeat things multiple times and you've been making mistakes at work too."

"Isn't that what love is supposed to be like?" Connor asked her, just as his phone rang again.

Abby groaned, reached over to grab the phone- with a silent wince of pain- and tossed it at her flatmate. "You're kind of love is going to get someone killed, most likely yourself if you don't answer your phone. Your ringtone is giving me a headache," she told him.

Connor sighed, flipping the mobile open before it went to voicemail. "What do you want?" he asked, his voice harsher than normal.

"I'm so, so sorry Connor." Sarah told him. He could tell that she had been crying and he felt his anger melting away.

"I know," he said softly. "Just tell me why, Sarah. Why did you have to sleep with Becker?"

"I really don't know. It just sort of happened. Becker was worried about Abby and I was mad that you were spending all your time taking care of her that you wouldn't even pick up the phone to talk to me. He came over to mine after Abby was let out of the hospital and we were talking. I just…I don't know. I feel horrible Connor."

"I know you do, Sarah and you should but that's your problem," he managed to tell her without her voice quivering. He looked over at Abby with a questioning smile and she gave him a slight nod of encouragement before he continued. "I would be a fool if I gave you control of my heart again."

"Conn," Sarah whimpered on the other end of the connection. He heard her sniff and assumed that she was crying again and while he felt his heart break a little at her tears, he knew that he had made the right decision.

"I'm sorry, Sarah. I have to go." He didn't wait for her reply before hanging up and letting out a deep sigh. He turned back to Abby. "Did I do the right thing?"

"Do you think you did?" she asked. Connor nodded. "Then, yeah, you probably did. Works better for me anyway, I get my mate back."

"I'm sorry I ignored you the past few weeks," he told her.

"I'm sorry about Sarah," she replied.

They both turned their attention back to the movie and Connor frowned as the guy got the girl, most likely after some crazy events. Sometimes he really hated chick flicks.

Well, that was different then I thought it was going to turn out. I guess that's what I get for writing as I go, instead of having a solid idea in my mind before writing. As always, let me know your thoughts.

Until next time, all my love,

Spike.
