Sarah 2.

This ain't a love song,

this is goodbye.

Sarah 2


the cold steel slams behind her. she knows she is alone. everything she once had, behind her, it is now gone. it is what she wants but she is not sure. this world she's opened herself to was filled with uncertainty. and the uncertainty brought with it death, the porters. if they found her, if they discover what she is. she would die before a scream could leave her.


but it was better.


it was better than being trapped inside an entirely different world, a world detached from what is real. and she hated that. she wanted some sense of realism.


even if it meant dying.

'Sarah! hey! where're you going?'

he catches her pell-mell and strides quickly towards her. She ignores him still when he calls her name again. Wanting her to stop, he grabs her elbow, only to have it shaken off. But it does work as she is suddenly stilled, mid-step.

'I'm sorry... I -- I just wanted you to stop.'

he sees tears streaming down her face but the silence between them holds.

'Dean, tell me something,' casually wiping her tears.

'yeah?'

'have you... have you ever thought of what's out there?'

'out there?' he replies, puzzled by her question.

'yeah. out there. beyond these walls.'

'i -- i don't know. nothing?' he said, knowing it was a stupid answer, 'why?'

she sniggers and looks at him. the first time they make such serious eye contact. he is immediately embarrassed seeing her swollen eyes but does not look away.

'nothing. just curious, that's all.'

she hugs him and kisses him on the cheek, then walks away. he is left rooted to the ground, startled by her sudden action.
