He was breathing hard, the gun his hands was holding was covered with sweat, his heart racing but the reason was not fear, never fear. His fear was bigger, worse, darker but he knew how to protect it, keep it out of sight. He had kept it out of sight, it was the reason he was fighting. He had to fight. He was protecting his fear.

He leaned against the wooden crate, closed his eyes and took few calming breaths, drowning the noise around, the smell of blood in the air was making it hard but he had managed, he brought the fear back in his thoughts and it was enough, enough to give him the lasting breaths he needed, give him the sense of calmness, peace to ignore the pain in his abdomen and come in sight of the death which awaits him.

He opened his eyes and came out of hide to walk in the fight again. Around him lay his own men and his men, dead, bleeding, injured but he only had eyes for one person; the blond man laughing as he shoot without a heart in his chest.

He knew he had few seconds, to end his own fate or the blond man's. His wasn't a choice, he had a fear to protect. He aimed his gun right at the blond man's head whose eyes met his own a second too late before his laugh stuck in his throat and he dropped on the bloodied floor.

The silence which followed bothered him and yet it was the signal that the fight had ended, he had won. Around him, his men cheered and start dragging the dead man's men under. Yes, they had won but the victory they had was nothing compare to what it meant for him. To them it meant sleeping without the fear of being awake in the middle of night because of an attack, being able to walk freely, women, drinking, freedom. To his, it meant only one thing.

As he walked outside the warehouse, his cell already in hand, the cold night warm against his skin, he called the number he have not called for two years.

"Hello?" A sleepy male voice answered.

"I'm coming home." He said.

"Shit!"

  • Her, To Home   Chapter # 01

    "Sara, June is here." Her mother shouted from downstairs.Sara smiled to herself as she raced down the stairs and into the kitchen where the sight of her mother greeted her. She gave a side grin to her mother as she glared at her daughter who was late, as usual."June is not your driver, you should have been ready already." He mother said."You know, we won't have to have this conversation every morning if you woul----""One more word Sara O'Brian and I will make sure you walk home from now on.""Of course mother, since we are so poor and the two cars standing in the gar-----""Sara O'Brian!" Her mother ran after as as she herself laughed as she quickly grabbed a green apple and made a run for the front door but her mother was on her heels.She opened the door and quickly made a run to the silver Volvo standing in her driveway in which her friend was already sitting, grinning at the sight of Sara and her mother. Sara quickly got into

  • Her, To Home   Chapter # 02

    What was he expecting? A welcome kiss? Hell no, not even close. A warm hug? Far from it. Even a handshake was taking it to far. So, he had decided he will just try talking to her, take it slow. Apologize, give her something to soften her up. Just take it nice and slow till she actually listens to him. Keep his distance till she is actually comfortable with him again.Yeah.....that went down the flush the second he laid eyes on her. It was a job well done.But by God, he couldn't help it. He didn't know how he managed to not run to her when he saw her standing in front of her locker, her short dirty blonde hair in a pony, her cheeks flushed from cold, lips in a frown. But her eyes, they were not as he had once seen. They had a certain blankness in them, a cover like she was hiding behind. She had changed, hell she had changed but yet she was just the same, she was his Sara O'Brian.The second her eyes had met his, he forgot the whole taking slow plan, it went dow

  • Her, To Home   Chapter # 03

    She couldn't breathe, she wanted to but she couldn't. Or was it that she could finally breathe? Had she finally found her breath after two years? Did she even know what breathing was like? She has not breathed properly for so long now. The feeling of cool air through the nose, passing along the throat and into the lungs; yes, this was what she felt, alive.She was breathing again and it was all because of him and yet the pain which followed hit her with so much force that it left her frozen and probably scarred for life. But then, she was scared for two years now, how could another one hurt? But it did, it hurt hard and bad. Wasn't it enough that she dealt with the pain once that she had to experience it all over again? The wounds were still fresh, did he had to come now? Couldn't he wait, maybe ten, twenty....lifetime?They told her sh

  • Her, To Home   Chapter # 04

    He was unaware of the silence around him. The cold wind was also ignored as he stared at the dark sky unconsciously. When his mind was on her, he never saw anything else anyway so there was no point of ignoring it. It was her he was seeing, Sara. Sara O'Brian. Always her.Last night went worse than the morning, he screwed up, again. He had promised he will keep his temper at bay, he didn't. He promised he will not touch her, he did, more time than he could count. He promised he will not get possessive, yeah, he sure kept that together and lastly, he had sworn he will not kiss her.He snorted internally, that was just a too much of a fucking crazy joke. He thought he had it under control, knew he was fine. Was sure that if he did touch her accidentally, he will not lose it. He was in control of himself.

    She looked around once again but saw no sight of him. Where one part of her was relieved that maybe he had left, a bigger part was racing with fear of him leaving again. Why, why could she not just get over him? Forget maybe but even she knew it was impossible."What's wrong Sara?" June asked."It's nothing, I just had a bad night."Lies."It was because of him, wasn't it?""Jun----""No. This is absurd, Sara. He left, without a letter or note or call. He has no right." June snapped."I know."She was lying but what choice did she had? She didn't want to argue, didn't

  • Her, To Home   Chapter # 06

    He couldn't breathe.God, he couldn't breathe.Did he even need to breathe when right now, right there, he was in the perfection? He was in a time which he could give his soul to stand still. How he wished it would stand still. He has waited to do this for a week, a week of waiting and he forgot why he was not supposed to do this, why he was not supposed to kiss Sara O'Brian.His lungs were on fire, his lips were blazing from her touch. His heart racing so fast that he was slightly panting. He wanted her closer, he wanted her nearer, she had possessed him, bi-witched him.He griped her tighter against himself and moved his lips faster. He just wanted to breath her in.But the moment ended too soon, too fast, Sara pulled away and yet her face was too near, he was going crazy. He still couldn't breathe."Why do you do this to me?" She whispered. He noticed her face, her expressions. She looked tired, exhausted. From what? With what?"Do

  • Her, To Home   Chapter # 07

    She slapped the hand away which was brushing fingers across her neck. Someone laughed silently, sending a rumbled through her chest and again the brushing started. She slapped the hand away and turned in her sleep, digging herself further into the warm bed.Bed?Her eyes bolted open and she came face to face with a dark green wall. Blinking her eyes again and again she tried to remember what was the color of her room's wall.Well, she at least doesn't have dark green walls.She turned her head the other way and shriek in surprise to see Dean sitting beside her, leaning on the wall, his arms crossed over his chest, legs; one on other as he stared at with those dangerous eyes which were making her heart race.

  • Her, To Home   Chapter # 08

    "Dean!"The startled voice made him back off from the door line he was leaning on. He slowly straightens himself and looked over at the open door. Seeing Sara's mother always brought along a warm tightening in his chest. He adored the woman, mostly because she was so like Sara but a small part of him did love the woman who actually treated him like a son.He gave her a side hug willingly enough, the smell of chocolate cake hit his nose making him smirk for it was such a sweet smell, quiet opposite to her daughter who had a dark, addicting scent.She had seemed to grew older since the last time he saw her. The grey strikes in her hair were increasing and the smile lines have gotten more prominent. Yet, he knew she have been very strong just like Sara was.

  • Her, To Home   Epilogue

    He was getting ready when she appeared, dressed in a soft peach gown looking like a goddess from heaven he never knew he could ever hold a part of. Her hands came closer to fix his tie for him and he simply looked at her, his eyes tracing the jewelry she had worn to the color of her soft lipstick. He waited till she was done before pulling her close to his chest."Am I still not just as handsome?" He, like a needy puppy demanded from her.He watched as she smiled, the soft smile lines were taking longer to go away now but her smile still made him able to move the universe for it. Her dirty blonde hair was now simply blonde and much longer, tied behind her head except for few loose strands which felt like brushes of feather on touch. Those forest-like eyes still held such adoration that sometimes it made him weak on his knees for he coul

  • Her, To Home   II

    She fell in love with how he called her his home,How his steps danced on the voice of her soul,How bare he was as if his skin was hers to own,She fell, as if this universe held only him alone,She drowned deeper as he made her waltz on his songs,How he loved her as she was last to ever be adored,With all his life, how he held her so close,As if he was the last to save her from this world of storms,

    The chill in the room was strange, like something was crawling on her skin, raising alarms in her head. Her breath also felt cold as if she could see the ghost the room held dancing in the air coming out of her mouth. She wasn't afraid but yet, she wanted to escape already. When her eyes fell on the lifeless white dome, she stepped back almost unconsciously, her mouth opening in a gasp but found a warm chest behind her, supporting her. His hand slide around her waist and she felt him give her a comforting squeeze. Her eyes slide to the man beside her who was already staring back at her with chilled eyes and then to the body covered in white cloth. She took a deep breath and once again stepped towards it, making sure she wouldn't run away, she held Dean hand which was on her waist tightly.She was glad that there was someone who was willing to touch that soulless body because she couldn't

  • Her, To Home   Chapter # 26

    He was leaning on the uncomfortable chair, staring at her. His whole body felt numb, like every emotion and feeling had lost its touch from his body. He had spent the time beside her sleeping figure like a hungry man to open her eyes. He shouldn't be worried, didn't have any reason to either but he still found himself unblinking as he took in her sight. It felt like forever since she last looked at him with those glaring, adoring eyes. His starvation for her attention was too selfish for him to fall asleep. He wanted to meet her eyes when she finally wakes up.The shadows in the room started appearing slowly like they were mocking him in slow painful dance which he wanted to dance and yet, was forced to only watch. As the glass window slowly creeped in the sunlight, he finally saw some movement from her. Just to make sure she won't move too harshly, he quickly held her down. She grabbed

    "Move faster!" Someone pushed her from behind. She rolled her eyes and tried to walk faster. Her legs hurt. She had been sitting down for quiet few hours before June arrived with few men on tow to take her away. She saw no reason to put on a fight so she followed them. She though they would be driving somewhere but it had been around 15 minutes and they were still walking. She didn't recognize the place but the whole area was a little too dark. They were surrounded by trees except for a small path which they were walking on. Since it was too dark, the three men June had brought with her had large flashlights in their hands and the fact that June had not bothered to put a blindfold on her eyes made her a bit more conscious about the fact that it was it was too stupid of a move for June to not do so. That could only mean that it didn't matter whether Sara saw her surroundings or not. They might not be returning back.

    "Are you sure it was her, Dean?"He didn't bother to raise his head and just silently nodded. He heard a smack from beside him which he ignored as he stared into the night in which his Sara was lost somewhere."I don't understand. The thing with her sister happened a long time ago, why now?" Drake asked, keeping his eyes on the road."Because I came back." Dean said and paused, slowly turning to look at Drake as he questioned, "You knew her? That girl?"Drake rolled his eyes and replied, "You are the only oblivious person who didn't. Everyone knew of her. If she was simply in love with you, maybe I can believe that you wouldn't have noticed but Dean, she was creepily obsessed with you. It used to give me creeps but I never knew that y

  • Her, To Home   Chapter # 23

    There were a sharp pain zapping through her skull which almost made her gasp out loud. She slowly opened her eyes and blinked several times to clear her blurry vision. The pain in her head was slowly fading as well as she got a better view of where she was.She was laying on hard, cold ground. The chill from somewhere was seeping through her clothes and sending a shiver down her spine. Her limbs were tightly bounded, enough for her to doubt the flow of blood in her veins. She shuddered and slowly turned her head around to see her surroundings. It wasn't dark but it wasn't bright either. It was just enough for her to be able to make out the shapes of everything around. She was in a room, probably a bedroom because she could see the build in closet and windows which had been closed. The glass was covered with black paint. She tried to rise her head but her head was too heavy so she stayed

    "Mr Woodland would see you now."He raised his head and nodded. Standing up, he followed the young sectary in unhurried and unwilling steps. The file in his hand was clutched tightly and his face wasn't as blank as he wanted it to be, the frost of his inner anger, frustration and fear, all were as clear as day. He almost wished that O'Brian was there with him but the thought left as soon as it came. He didn't want her to see him this week, didn't wanted himself to be so weak but his relation with his father had always been like that. Growing up, he always was simply his son in name. He didn't have any memories of his father ever simply talking to him. It was either him scolding him or just staring down at him like he was a disappointment.At that time, he didn't understand and he still didn't. He wasn't a bad student; he wasn't great bu

    She slowly opened her eyes and then blinked them a few times. She could smell him, his blue shirt was right in front of her carrying a clean, soupy scent. Her hair was being creased softly and it almost felt like wind. She moved her neck and looked up at him. He was already looking at her. With those dark, narrowed eyes he was staring at her. It seemed like he had been awake for quite a while now."Are you really awake this time?" He slowly smiled and kissed her forehead."Hmmm?" She mumbled, not wanted to talk but simply blinked her eyes at him.His silent laugh vibrated her mind to putty as he said, "You woke up twice before. Stared at me and fell back to sleep."Huh? She didn't really remember anything.
