Sarah's POV

It's been two days since I saw Zak. I've already written and got the music for a song involving that encounter. It's amazing how fast you can do something like that when you're sad, hurt, and mad.

But my wound hasn't healed yet for some reason. Mom told me that it was an Immortal thing, that when someone you cared about and trusted physically hurt you on purpose, the mark he leaves becomes a permanent scar until you make up with that person.

Yeah, I don't think that's going to happen with Zak.

It doesn't hurt or bother me anymore, but it's annoying.

My friends and family have been helping me through this. And I know he won't admit it, but I'm pretty sure that my dad's glad that I no longer have a boyfriend. But he's still drinking. I'm working on that.

"Hey, Sarah," Zack said. "What's up?"

"Just working on my music," I replied.

"Any new songs?"

"Uh, one. But I'm working on a few others."

"Can I hear that one?"

"Sure."

I went into the recording studio, placed a CD in, pressed a few buttons, went into the booth, put on my head phones, and began to sing:

The day I first met you
You told me you'd never fall in love
But now that I get you
I know fear is what it really was

Now here we are,
So close yet so far.
Haven't I passed the test?
When will you realize,
Baby, I'm not like the rest?

Don't wanna break your heart
Wanna give your heart a break
I know you're scared it's wrong
Like you might make a mistake
There's just one life to live
And there's no time to wait, to wait
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
Oh yeah, yeah

On Sunday you went home alone
There were tears in your eyes
I called your cell phone, with my love
But you did not reply

The world is ours. If we want it,
We can take it if you'll just take my hand.
There's no turning back now.
Baby, try to understand

Don't wanna break your heart
Wanna give your heart a break
I know you're scared it's wrong
Like you might make a mistake
There's just one life to live
And there's no time to wait, to wait
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
There's just so much you can take
Give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
Oh yeah, yeah

When your lips are on my lips
Then our hearts beat as one
But you slip out of my fingertips
Every time you run, whoa-oh-whoa-oh-oh

Don't wanna break your heart
Wanna give your heart a break
I know you're scared it's wrong
Like you might make a mistake
There's just one life to live
And there's no time to wait, to wait
So let me give your heart a break

'Cause you've been hurt before
I can see it in your eyes
You try to smile away, some things you can't disguise
Don't wanna break your heart
Baby, I can ease the ache, the ache
So let me give your heart a break, give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
There's just so much you can take
Give your heart a break
Let me give your heart a break, your heart a break
Oh yeah, yeah
