Challenge/Prompt: #8 Wish
Original Fiction
Characters/Pairings: Sarah
Rating: G
Warnings: None.
Disclaimer: Mine.
Summary: The star hasn't fallen yet.
Author's Notes: In the same universe as this one.
There's a star in the sky that looks like it's about to fall, and Sarah wishes it hurry up already, she's been waiting for hours. She's laying outside in the backyard, and it reminds her of those rare weekends when she and her dad would go camping in the mountains.
In fact, it feels so much like those times that she calls out, absently: "Daddy!"
Joseph peeks out from between the glass doors of the patio. "What's up, Sarah?"
She looks at him, disappointment running through her like a cresting wave, growing stronger as it goes.
"Nothing," she says. "I wasn't asking for you."
