No Escaping You

Who Is She?

It had been days since they first met and Sara hadn't seen or heard from Rebecca aside from the text exchange the morning that followed. Had she come on too strong? Had she scared her off? It didn't seem like it when she was the one who even offered her number. Rebecca could just be stomped with a case, but still it worried her. She won't give up just like that. She can't. She would never give up on her. Not on Nyssa.

"Can I help you?" An older man with a hoarse voice asked Sara as she stood in front of the building she figured where Rebecca could be working from.

"I'm looking for Rebecca."

The older man looked at her curiously. "Why don't you come on up?" He offered.

"No, it's okay. I can wait here."

"She might be long."

"I don't mind."

"Suit yourself, sweetheart."

Sara didn't want to overstep her bounds. And her being there was already too much of a gamble.

On the other hand, Rebecca was busy formulating strategies for their next op with Tommy, when Frank Roarke arrived.

"Hey, Frank. Tommy's girl got us more information for the case."

"That's great. Loop me in."

Tommy told Frank about the new shipment that his C.I. heard was coming in. They haven't had the chance to intercept any since they got the case on their radar. And they shouldn't pass up the chance.

"And I think we should get her out now. She's getting too paranoid. She'd get caught." The last time Tommy had seen the girl, she was more agitated and nervous than normal and that was never good. It may mean that they got huge intel, but it's easier to cast suspicions at her and she'd get burned.

"Okay, we'll figure that one out." Frank said, getting the concern. "Oh and by the way, there's a beautiful blondie looking for you downstairs." He added, directing the statement to Rebecca.

Rebecca was in utmost surprise. The first person that came to mind was Sara. But how did she know where to find her? She hurried her way down to meet her outside the building.

"How did you find me?"

"Search party. Were you hiding?"

"What are you doing here?"

Sara was disappointed and pained by the harsh tone Rebecca had greeted her with. It confused her even more as to what the hell was wrong.

"Yeah. It's nice to see you too." When Rebecca hadn't responded, she added, "okay, maybe I'm just reading too much into whatever this is between us. I thought we were off on a great start, but then maybe that was just me. I don't know if I caught you at a bad time or you just don't want to see me ever again."

When she still got nothing from Rebecca, she shook her head and started to walk away. Then she turned her heels around and pulled Rebecca into a fierce and hurried kiss. She smiled into the kiss when Rebecca finally gave into it.

"I like you, Rebecca. I want you. And you ain't getting rid of me that easily."

Rebecca was breathless. How did she ever think that she could keep herself distanced from her? Every moment that passed just made her want Sara more and it drove her crazy. She thought she could just deal with her until the case was over. Then she does that. How could she keep herself away now?

"I have a day off in two days." She said, still catching her breath.

Sara kissed her again, just one brief but deep kiss.
