Cheryl's POV
I got to the door, took a deep breath and rang the door bell. As expected the maid answered.
“Could you please tell Kimberley that Cheryl’s here to see her?.”
“Just a moment miss.” And she disappeared inside.
After what seemed forever for us, the maid finally returned and not to me surprise said: “I’m sorry, but Miss Walsh isn’t home right now.”
“I see.” I simply said, ignoring the tingling sensation coursing through me body, just knowing that I was physically so close to her.
“I’ll tell her you stopped by, goodbye.” Said the maid and closed the door.
I backed up a bit and looked up at the mansion. It was big and majestic but it sure wasn’t going to keep us away from me Kimberley.
I went around the back and searched for Kimberley’s bedroom window which I knew was on the second floor. I located it and saw that the lights were on, but the pipe I used for climbing was covered with ice and looked extremely slippery.Even more dangerous than a shrieking Sarah.
There was a huge tree facing the window though and it didn't look as dangerous as the pipe. I saw it and an idea formed in me head.
This is where all the years of carefully sneaking in and out of me own house without getting caught will come in hand. I went closer and studied the tree and without a moment’s hesitation started climbing.

Kimberley's POV
I was sitting in my room when the maid knocked on my door. I opened it and was informed that Cheryl was at the door. I told her to say I wasn’t home. I closed the door and leaned against it.
I raised my hand to my heart and felt it beating real fast. I got angry at myself.
Why does the mere mention of your name still have such an effect on me? Especially after all you had done to me. Why are you here? Did you come like Sarah to laugh in my face too?
I felt a lump in my throat as I held back from crying, as I remembered what had happened yesterday. I was in my car running a few errands before I had to go home and get ready to meet Cheryl later.
I had been thinking about her the whole day. I couldn't believe I had told her I loved her.
My feelings towards Cheryl were very clear in my head and in my heart, but I had been holding back from telling her how I really felt out loud.
Convincing myself that it was always never the right moment, but in truth I was afraid of Cheryl’s reaction. I didn’t want to scare her off by proclaiming my love so soon, and I was afraid that it’s exactly what I had done.
Anyways I would find out in a few hours.
Right then, I saw Cheryl sitting at a table by the window of Costa. At first I thought I was imagining her cause I had been thinking about her constantly, but then realised it was actually her and I also noticed Sarah sitting next to her, even if it was from a distance.
Suddenly I saw her throw her arms round Sarah and hug her. Then I saw Sarah turn her head and kiss her.
I felt my heart stop beating. I turned my gaze back to the traffic and then quickly looked back to make sure that what I had just seen wasn’t my imagination. I caught a glimpse of the two girls laughing and looking tenderly at each other just as I was turning the corner of the street.
I felt my head suddenly get cold. My hands felt numb and I was finding it hard to breath. I didn’t notice that the traffic had stopped and I rammed hard into the car in front of me.
