"Lucky?", I asked. Lucky, Heathers yet-to-be husband. "What do you want? To take something? Like Heather?", I asked.
"Naw", he said. "I'm here to warn you...about the storm Heathers bring in on you"
...
Corey's POV
After Sarah Jane left, I started to think. Why am I throwing Sarah Jane away? The only girl iv ever really loved.I had to chase her. Get her back. I've been stupid. I love her.
I knew my wounds were not serious. I started to rip the many wires and machines off me. I got up, felt lightheaded, but fought it. I changed clothes and I knew the doctor wasn't gonna let just walk out. I waited till the coast was clear and snuck away.
"Okay", I whispered to myself as I walked away from the hospital after a great escape. Where would SJ go? Home? I don't feel like she did. Then it hit me. The park, we always went there together.
I hurried to find the park, nearly getting myself ran over in the process.
...
Finally reaching the place I went to SJs favorite place there. The bridge with a river below it, she often sat there watching it flow.The darkness made it hard to see, but the perfume in the air was enough to guide me to Sarah Jane.
"Sarah Jane", I called.
She got up from where she was sitting, facing me, the moon full and bright over head. "Corey, you shouldn't be here.", she said.
"Why? I'm here because I need you. I was wrong to let lies ruin everything.", I confessed.
"Corey, I don't understand. You were with Heather at the hospital and you didn't act to happy to see me."
This was true, but there was more to it then what she saw.
"Heather came to me. I didn't want her there.", I said.
"Corey, Lucky told me. She set you up to be stabbed. She set this all up. I miss it, how it used to be. Before she came into town.", SJ said, fighting tears.
"I'll never let this happen again. I love you. I never stopped.", I said.
"Ask me what you asked me in 87", she ordered.
I knew what she was talking about.
"Sarah Jane Swayze", I began. "Will you go steady with me?", I asked.
She smiled. How I missed that.
"Yes Corey Ian Haim. I love you too.", she said.
I wrapped her into a big hug. I could smell her hair, it smelled like flowers, her perfumes, White Diamonds.
...
Sarah Janes POV
Corey's hug made everything ok.
The warm and comforting hug lasted for a few moments."I guess it true", I said pulling away. Corey still holding my hands.
"What's true?", he asked.
"People hurt people, even family.", I said. Corey flashed a warm smile. "I won't let you get hurt", he assured me.
We started walking, I don't know where, but we did.
"Let's just get out of this town. Just for a while. Let's go to TownsVille again.", I said. Corey had a half smile, what I called a 'Elvis smile'.
"You really want to? I'll take you.", he said as he wrapped one arm around me.
"There's no drama there, its peaceful, and the people are nice. What is here, its to much. The whole situation we're in. Just a week or so Cor.", I continued.
He nodded. "I'll follow you anyplace angelface.", he said.
A big weight has been lifted off my shoulders. Running away from problems don't help, I've tried. But going away is a time to think. Something I need. Corey and I can repair what's been broken, Heather can't ruin much, and the flash of Hollywood will fade away for some time. Maybe things can work out. Maybe Elvis is alive, James Dean too. Maybe Kennedy killed Marilyn. Maybe this won't work, maybe trouble does follow us. Maybe I'm over thinking it. Maybe nightmares are real, dreams too.
