She knew Alex wouldn't be home, that was why she had chosen this time to appear.

She couldn't explain without falling apart and it would be too hard because her heart wanted to cuddle close to Alex forever, her path had to be different.

She wished it weren't true but it was.

She had made up her mind and she couldn't back out now.

She left the envelope on the kitchen counter, looked at the picture Alex had glued to her fridge door of the two of them together, they had driven out into the country and found a fairground along the way.

Touching her fingertip to Alex's smiling face she felt the loss already.

She remembered spending all night in her arms, she couldn't feel happy knowing it would be for the very last time.

When Alex had inquired about the tears she shed, she just shook her head and passed it off as happiness.

"Goodbye, I hope you find someone better than me."

I love you.

Then she was gone.

                                                                                                        xxx

She wasn't expected.

She didn't know if anyone would be there.

She hoped there was.

Her luck this time was in, there she was stood in front of her, the Waverider stood in silence, she wondered where everyone was.

Sara.

Quinn sighed.

"Why didn't you tell me."

Sara startled, turning to stare at Quinn as though she were a ghost.

"What are you doing here?" She asked in astonishment.

" Why didn't you tell me about your sister? "

"What about my sister?"

Quinn sighed. "That she died."

"I thought you knew."

" Sara I stay as far away from that city as I can. "

"Oh."

Quinn moved forward until she was standing so close she could feel the body heat that radiated from her.

" You never said anything, you also never told me how she died. "

"Yeah, I bet Adeline loved knowing she helped take my sister from me." She lowered her head to hide her sadness.

Quinn's heart broke, she felt so selfish never once had she asked about her sister or anything at all about Sara.

"Are your parents well?"
