Sage
Even though I'd only been away for 6 weeks, it felt like so much longer. I really enjoyed my time in LA- I got to do some great filming and spend time with my family. The only problem was I thought it would distance me from me and Connors fight and make me feel better. Instead, I still worried about him all the time. Even worse than before. Today I would see him and we could talk, but I didn't know how he'd react. Instead of going to see him right away, I brought my stuff to an apartment I was going to rent for the time being and unpacked a bit. Last minute, I decided to put on something cute and do my hair. I don't know why, but I wanted to look nice when I saw him. Finally I went to our old apartment and knocked on the door. He didnt answer. The only other place I thought to look was his lab. I walked to his building and the secratary said he was on a different floor than usual. I took the elevator, which led me to a huge, open high tech room. I just stood for a second and took it all in. I saw Cisco and Caitlyn right away, but not Connor. He must be training or something.

Connor
I ran in with three coffees. "coffee for all, still hot." I said handing it out. "Cisco, where are we at with..." I trailed off when I saw Sage in the doorway. My face fell. "You're back." I said stepping around a few desks, towards her.

Sage
I bit my lip when his face fell. Was he upset that I was back? "Yeah... " I said, looking around. I wasn't quite sure what to say. "Are you busy? I could come back later. Or not at all." I stammered, turning red.

[Tori]

Connor
"Uh.. no.. Hold on." I said. I said a few things to Cisco. "Call me if there are any emergencies." I said. "Come on. Let's walk." I said to Sage.

Sage
I nodded and followed him out. "Uhh what have you been working on?" I asked.

[Tori]

Connor
I shrugged. "Just some new tech." I said, not really wanting to share a lot with her, considering when she found out about me, she left.

Sage
I could she he was kind of stand-offish to me. I stopped walking for a second. "Do you even want to try to make this work, Connor? Because if you don't I'll leave right now and stop wasting your time." I said, sick of his attitude.

[Tori]

Connor
"You already left once." I huffed.

[chargergirlz]

Sage
"It was for work." I said, tears pricing at my eyes. "And you lied to me. Thats why I needed time. Not because you're..." I didn't know who was listening so I didn't say it.

[Tori]

Connor
"Then I told you everything and you still left, without trying to fix things first, just hoping that things would be okay when you came back?" I shook my head. "I was hurt Sage."

[chargergirlz]

Sage
I bit my lip. "I didn't want to hurt you. I just needed time to think over everything." I wiped my tears. "We both needed time- we couldn't just jump back into things and forget what happened."

[Tori]

Connor
"Sage, don't you see that, that's just what you're doing. We should have worked this out before you left, but we didn't, and it's not magically better." I said.

[chargergirlz]

Sage
I sighed. "Ok. I'm sorry that I hurt you by leaving. I wasn't trying to." I said softly. "But I'm trying to fix it now. Shouldn't that be what matters? And you're acting like you don't want to."

[Tori]

Connor
I sighed. "I don't know Sage. Maybe we shouldn't." I said.

Sage
My eyes blurred with tears. "Connor..." I whispered. "We were about to get married. There still has to be something there." I said, my voice catching. I wasn't going to give up without a fight.
