When there were you and I ~ a 707/Luciel/Saeyoung x MC story

Chapter 15 - Working together

~Vini/Sara POV~

You wanted to see the sunset properly one last time. It felt right. The right close. Saeren and Saeyoung were alive. You needed to save one. The other would survive. You pulled the hoodie you're wearing closer. And started to climb the mountain. Your sides hurt but it was alright. The roads were easier, but you would be easy to track with cameras on every side. As you reached closer to the cliff you wanted to get to, you remember smaller voices, "Saandraa.. I wish I could see it! The mountains and the sky. Someday when I'm a lady I will.. You'll be there with me won't you?" The girls had said that to you one night after you'd put them to sleep after the day's ordeal of training and drugs. "Take a look at that view baby girl," you said to the box in your hand. You were holding the last child's ashes in a box.
"The sun is warm, and the clouds are happy. It's not too hot that you'd get burnt, but not too cold either. The best to play in, and sing songs. Your friends are all waiting on the other side. You can eat all the ice cream you want.. You can touch all the flowers you want. Wear lots of pretty dresses, dances in the rains... meet princes..Anything.. Anything is possible there.". Your voice cracked and it was getting harder. "I.. I can't come with you.. I don't deserve to.. But don't you worry about that. Just watch the prettiest sunset in the world with me. Just like we'd said we would. Tell all the rest of them about it...k?" You choked. Tears running down."I wish I could come. I do think about it sometimes. Just .. going. But then I have someone who tells me to be strong. Strong as the rock around my neck.That no matter what, I have to brave. I have some one I need to protect now too. And someone I .. well.. someone I need to be sure is ok."

You couldn't go on. You held her close. Leena... the last angel.. After the sun had gone down and the stars had come out, you knew you had to let her go.. So you got up, holding her the box close, and started humming her favorite song as you walked to the edge. The kids all loved that one song. Not because of the message but because it was a good song. You pictured them all looking down at you.. Were they angry? Were they happy? You took a deep breath in and opened the box, letting the ashes fall off the cliff. "Goodbye then. Have a great time out there" You felt so lonely. So lonely it pissed you off. All the pain inside gave way to anger. Anger at the world. At Rika. At Mint Eye. At yourself. You didn't want to hold it in anymore but you knew that was what gave you the fire to fight. So you held on to your anger. Your fingers hurt fomr the grip you had on the box that held her ashes. You took a deep breathe, and threw it as far as you could off the cliff and watched it fall. It would be so simple, to just fall. Everything would end. But you wouldn't. You had to find Saeren. Your past didn't matter. But Saeran's future did. You could picture falling, but seconds before you imagined hitting the rocky grounds, you'd hear a soft voice saying "I'll find you, promise, ok? And never back down. You can survive through anything. Be brave! Just like me! When you're scared, just be like this rock!" You never knew who it was. But that someone had given you a rock, that hung around your neck.

You smirked at your silliness, shaking your head as you turned and began to walk down. You froze as you saw a shadow. And waited. Someone approached you. You jumped into the bushes by the side of the cliff. Maybe he didn't see... "It's me" called out the voice. It was a cute voice. A beautifully familiar voice. Seven.. no.. Saeyoung. You slowly climbed out and watched him.. His hands were held up, to show he had nothing on him. "I'm your driver. I won't ask anything. I'll Just do whatever you tell me to..." He seemed frightened. Did he hear you talking to your kids? He looked anxious to get you to come closer to him. His eyes darted to something behind you. You quickly turned around to see what it is he was looking at.. The cliff.
Oh.. OH! He thought you were going to leave. To jump. Well you wanted to. Many a times. But every time you were at an end, you heard that small voice.
You turned around to look at him and he was closer to you now. Creeper ,you slyly think. You can't help but look at all of him. Here in front of you. You feel a smile on your lips. "Alright then. I need to get to my safehouse.", you replied, as you walk up closer to him. He may think I'm mad, you thought to yourself. But that's ok. It was a two door car. You seated yourself in and pulled the seat belt over your chest. It felt soft. As Seeyoung started the car, you leaned back and tried to get comfortable. The seat was too low, and you didn't like feeling so.. exposed. It was perfect for him thought. He was tall, muscular. No wonder Seven loved his babies. You watched his reflection on your window. I'm your driver, he'd said. You knew what he was doing. He was trying to get close, but not too much to scare you off. You sighed and hugged yourself. You could see the clouds approaching.. Another rainy night then. You hated storms. You loved the rain. Just not the thunder. It scared you.
