Wish I Had Time For Complicated

17. Lucky Meets

"This night is cold in the kingdom
I can feel you fade away
From the kitchen to the bathroom sink and
Your steps keep me awake

Don't cut me down, throw me out, leave me here to waste
I once was a man with dignity and grace
Now I'm slipping through the cracks of your cold embrace
So please, please

Could you find a way to let me down slowly?
A little sympathy, I hope you can show me
If you wanna go then I'll be so lonely
If you're leaving baby let me down slowly" -

"Let me down slowly" Alec Benjamin.

It was the end of May and the pouring rain fell over Chicago,engulfing it with darkness despite the starting summer.

But still,the air in the city was thick hot and the people there didn't know what to wear because of the unpredictable weather.

And in Sara's case,her summer long yellow dress got drenched from the sudden rain that caught her on her way to the market.

Shivers of cold ran thru her baby when she entered the big local shop and felt the cold air of the conditioners blow against her still slightly wet skin.

But being wet by the rain was the farthest of her problems.What she did with Michael was so so wrong and Sara barely held it together in front of Dyl. She felt so bad for lying to him and kissing Michael. No,actually she wasn't sorry for the second one,she just liked to think she was so the guilt would lessen a bit.How pathetic was she...

And still, his every touch she couldn't forget,his every kiss,his every gaze.Her heart would skip frantically in her chest every time she thought of Michael.Why did he affect her so much that she couldn't break away from him.Couldn't stay away.But this time she learned her lesson.She would for real stay away from him.No more visits at the office and dates,no more dinner invites and elevator kisses.Enough.In five months,In October she would marry Dylan and live the happy life she thought she lived until Scofield came Into her life.And he gave her a taste of the more exciting part of life.His life.

"Sara?"

Michael had thought he was imagining her or something but her long auburn hair, that was slightly wet now,he couldn't mistake it.And she looked so stunning in her summery dress that it hurt that Mike couldn't go and kiss her,touch her.

He was about to go and see the fam which lived in Sara's neighborhood and Michael decided to go in the local market there to buy something to eat and drink.The least thing the engineer had expected was to see the beautiful doctor there in that weather.

The aisle with fruit that where she was standing near was deserted and when he saw her there his immediate reaction was to call out her name.
She hadn't been answering his calls and messages after that night they spent together.It made him hate himself for pressuring her like this.But he would never be sorry for kissing her,ever...

It truly left him hurt to see the disgust on her face when she realized what she was doing in his car,with him.Michael wanted her to want him,but she was devoted to another.

Its always the things you want the most that you can't have
