I'm holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground
And I'm hearing what you say
But I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down
But wait...
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around and say..

Kris Allen sighed as he looked out over the pool of the Idol mansion, it had been 4 months since his American Idol journey started and since then his wife had filed for divorce leaving him alone and hurting wishing she could understand how bad he wanted the marriage to work out.

That it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

Thinking back to the day he and his wife married he smiled he had been so happy for he had loved her for so long and now she was about to become his wife. he could not have been happier and he had thought she felt the same way.

I'd take another chance, take a fall, take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
(But that's nothing new)
Yeah yeah

I loved you with a fire red, now it's turning blue
And you say
Sorry like an angel, heavens let me think was you,
But I'm afraid

Sitting down on one of the poolside chairs Kris starred down at his wedding ring wondering if he should call her again and try to change her mind but she always ignored his calls. "why fight for something you can't have?" he thought to himself.

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologizes, it's too late
Woahooo woah

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, yeah yeah
I said it's too late to apologize, a yeah

I'm holding your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground...

Kris's thoughts were interupted by his ringing cell phone, as he looked down at the blinking screen he had a slight hope it would be his soon to be ex wife but it was his best friend Gina calling. he smiled at the thought of her she had called every day checking on him since she had heard his wife had filed for divorce.

"I'm fine, thanks for asking." Kris laughed into the phone. he knew that question would be the first thing she said.

"Alright smart ass." Gina said joining on his laughter "the finale is next week. i got your ticket for me in the mail yesterday."

"I can't wait to see you." Kris told her "it seems like forever since we hung out."

"Your wife was always jealous of me." Gina said shaking her head.

"Your beautiful so i can see why she was." Kris told her as the door leading out to the pool opened and his best friend Adam pointed at his watch saying it was time for rehearsal "Look i gotta call you once rehearsal is over."

"Have a good rehearsal Kris." Gina smiled through the phone she was so proud of him for making it to the top two.

The phone conversation ended and Kris went into the house. he and Adam got into the limo that would take them to rehearsal and thier busy day began.

"If I can't have you, I don't want nobody baby!"

Sara was passionately singing along to Adam Lambert's studio version of "If I Can't Have You." Adam was always on her mind, and she did not understand how she could love someone so much, even though she had never met them personally, but she did not think it was too crazy because at least half of America if not the world was in love with him too.

She was still so happy that her favorite 'Idol' made it to the finale with Kris Allen. She was so excited, it was an unbelievable feeling that she was able to make Adam's dream of winning American Idol that much closer.

Suddenly she heard her phone vibrating on her desk. Her phone said "Gina calling"

"Hi Gina!" Sara said as she picked up the phone.

"Hey Sara!"

"I brought Adam home with me today! Meaning I finally found that Entertainment Weekly magazine with him on the cover!" Sara said laughing and admiring the gorgeous guy on the magazine in her lap.

"Yay! Too bad it wasn't the real Adam!" Gina laughed.

"Yeah! Too bad! Maybe in my dreams. God I want to meet that boy so bad." Sara laughed too.

"What if I told you that you might get a chance to? I was able to get tickets for the finale!" Gina shrieked into the phone.

"Are you serious?! I think I'm going to explode!" Sara shrieked back.

"Me too! I can't imagine what Kris and Adam will look like in person!"

"HOT! That's what they'll look like!"

Gina pulled her VW bug into Sara's driveway. it had been almost a week since she had recieved the tickets from Kris and now the girls were heading to LA for the show.

"Damn girl did you pack enough stuff?" Gina asked Sara came out of her apartment with two suitcases.

"You told me we may stay a week there, Adam will be seeing me every say so i had to make sure i packed every nice outfit i had." Sara said as she loaded her things into the back of her friend's car.

Gina laughed and shook her head as Sara climbed into the car. the music of Adam lambert filled thier ears as the girls started towards California. it was going to be a wild week with the guys but they were looking foward to it.

Meanwhile at the Idol mansion Kris stood in the kitchen while Adam cooked lunch for the two of them. conversations of Kris and his divorce hung in the air.

"I love her but i know she doesn't want to give our marriage a chance." Kris was telling Adam.

"I know you love her Kris." Adam said as he turned to face him "but she is starting to realize what life will be like once your famous. you can't make a heart love somebody."

"But i could sure as hell try if she would answer the phone." Kris said he was getting angry now "thank god for my friend Gina coming to visit."

"A girl is coming here?" Adam asked "WOOOOOOOO."

"Two girls to be exact." Kris said trying to hold his laughter back.

"Double WOOOOOOO." Adam said with a smile "are they hott?"

"Gina is pretty but i've never met her friend before." Kris told him no longer able to hold his laughter back.

"How long have you and Gina been friends?" Adam asked.

"Since highschool." Kris told him "i miss her when were not hanging out."

Kris left the kitchen on that note and went to his room where he lay on his bed wondering how his life was soon to change. he was so close to winning American Idol then his life would never be the same again.

"Are we there yet?!" Sara asked starting to get antsy. Sara never had an issue with long car trips like this, but this was different! Herself and Gina were on their way to LA to see the gorgeous boys that were in the top two of the popular t.v. show "American Idol." One of them was the gorgeous Adam Lambert.

"We should be there in a few hours! Chill!" Gina said trying not to laugh.

"I know, sorry I'm just so excited to meet them! I mean I didn't think I would!" Sara said trying to calm down a little bit. "So where are we staying?"

"We're staying at this great hotel that's really close to the venue! I'm so excited!" Gina said.

"OMG! What am I going to wear if we run into the boys?!" Sara asked.

"I'm sure they'll like you no matter what you're wearing! They both seem like really sweet guys!" Gina said shaking her head.

"Yeah they do! I want to get hugs from both of them! They're so cute!"

"I think you've said that about 20 times already." Gina laughed. "But yes I want hugs from them also!"

Kris Allen's version of "Apologize" started playing and both girls laughed and sang along to it.

"It's too late to call a judge!" Both girls sang at the same time and then laughed even harder.

"This is going to be a blast!" Sara said.

"Hell yeah!" Gina agreed

In L.A. Adam and Kris were shopping for clothes to wear for their performances during the finale.

"Do you know when the girls will get here?" Adam asked Kris as they walked out of a store with a few bags in their hands.

"No I don't, but I think they left this morning so they should be here soon." Kris said smiling a little, he was excited to see Gina, and he was looking forward to meeting her friend as well.

"I'm looking forward to meeting them! Where will they be staying?" Adam asked.

"They'll be staying with us at the mansion, but Gina's friend doesn't know about it." Kris said smiling.

"WOOOOOOOOOO." Adam laughed at himself. "Do you know what Gina's friend's name is?"

"Yeah, I think she said her name is Sara." Kris laughed along with Adam.

"I love that name, we'll make sure they have a good time while they're here." Adam said smiling as the boys got into the car to go back to the mansion

"Sara!" Gina shook her shoulders.

"What?" Sara opened her eyes. "Woah, did I fall asleep?"

"Yeah, you've been out for about an hour or so." Gina laughed.

"Aww! I'm sorry I didn't mean to fall asleep on you!" Sara replied as she looked at herself in the mirror.

"I don't mind, Adam and Kris's music kept me company." Gina smiled.

"I am so excited to meet them!" Sara said starting to get excited again. "How much longer is the drive?"

"We should be there in about 2 hours I think, but we're low on gas so we'll pull into a gas station."

"Oh wow! That's not very long at all!" Sara said as Gina pulled the car into a gas station. "I'm gonna use the bathroom, do you want any snacks?"

"Yeah can you get me some Doritos? Thanks!" Gina replied giving Sara a $10.

"Sure! I'll be right back!" Sara said getting out of the car.

-----

Kris and Adam were back at the mansion trying to make it look clean for the girls' arrival when Kris heard his phone ringing inside his pocket.

"Hey Gina!" Kris said smiling.

"Hi Krissy! We should be there in about 2 hours. Sara still has no idea that we're staying at the mansion with you and Adam." Gina said smiling.

"That's great! Will she freak out?" Kris chuckled while looking at Adam who smiled back at him.

"Um...yeah that's probably what will happen. She LOVES Adam!" Gina laughed with him.

"He'll love that, I'm sure." Kris smiled. "I'm so excited to see you."

"I am too! Oh I better get off, Sara is coming back, but I'll see you really soon!" Gina said.

"Ok, bye Gina!" Kris said closing his phone.

"So, what's up?" Adam asked.

"That was Gina, she said they'll be here in about 2 hours, and her friend Sara still doesn't have any idea that they're staying with us." Kris replied.

"I'm so excited to meet them! You said something about me loving something?" Adam said.

"Oh yeah, Gina said that Sara LOVES you!" Kris said nudging Adam.

"WOOOOO! I mean who doesn't love me?" Adam chuckled. "I think I love Sara already then and I haven't even met her yet."

"Yeah, I'm looking forward to meeting her as well." Kris smiled.

Kris and Adam went back to making sure the house looked nice for the girls' arrival.

Gina pulled the car to a stop outside the mansion. she couldn't believe how huge it was. looking over into the passenger seat she saw Sara had fallen asleep once more she laughed to herself before shaking her awake.

"Adam 5 more minutes please." Sara begged.

"You wish it was Adam." Gina laughed as Sara opened her eyes "were here girl now wake your ass up."

The two girls got out of the car, Gina adjusted her sunglasses then smoothed out the sundress she was wearing along with a pair of white leggings and ballet flatts. she wanted to look cute for Kris and she felt she had acomplished.

The front door to the mansion opened and the guys came out. Kris was wearing a pair of jeans and a t-shirt that fit him nice, she could tell he had been working out because his abs were showing off through the shirt.

"I can't believe your here." Kris said as he hugged her close to him "god i have missed you so much."

"I'm not going to be here much longer if you don't let me gain back my air supply." Gina laughed letting him know he was holding her so tight she could barely breathe.

"You look so beautiful." Kris told her before he kissed her cheek "you must be Sara" he said as he turned to her then extended his hand.

Gina stood there watching Kris and the feeling of falling in love with him came over her again. she couldn't help herself she had always been in love with him but never told him fearing it may ruin the friendship she had with him.

"Are you going to stand there or come inside?" Kris asked as he turned to look at her.

"I'm coming." Gina said smiling at him before walking towards the mansion behind everyone else.

"We cleaned this place up a little before you girls got here." Kris said as he closed the door.

"What? i thought you would have a maid." Gina laughed.

"We do." Adam laughed "but we figured we would do the cleaning ourselves."

~*~*~
Later that night after dinner the girls settled onto the couch ready for a private concert from the two guys. Kris adjusted his guitar and began to strum before singing words so beautiful it had both girls in tears.

Sunny days come and gone away
And she has let her mind take control today
Head spinnin' round and around it goes
She looks up in the sky and wonders what she knows

She is on her way
She is on her way
On her way to make it all make sense

Sunny days come and gone away
And he is wanderin' through this life with no one to blame
Heart spinnin' round and around it goes
He's starin' at the sky lookin' for someone who knows

He is on his way
He is on his way
On his way to make it all make sense

Her mind is blowin' in the breeze
Well I've been there
I've been there
His heart it blows like a tumbleweed
Well I've been there
I've been there

Oh
I know
That you
Have questions
And oh
I know
That you
Don't know where to start and oh
Just wait
You'll see
It get's better
Don't give up
When you're on your knees
Because

You are on your way
You are on your way
On your way to make it all make sense
You are on you way
You are on you way
On your way to make it all make sense

Gina smiled through her tears as he finished. she loved the sound of his voice. Kris smiled at her before walking over to hug her close. it felt so good to have her back in his arms.

Sara found herself outside by the pool with her best friend Gina at the Idol mansion, while the boys Kris and Adam messed around in the pool. The girls were listening to their music while working on a tan. It was great day outside to relax by the pool.

It was so nice out that Sara almost fell asleep, when she felt freezing cold water splash onto her.

She sat up screaming and opened her eyes. She saw Adam in the pool with a little smirk on his face, she knew it was him that splashed her.

"Kris did it." Adam said pointing at Kris and trying to keep a serious face.

"I know it was you Adam Lambert." Sara sat down on the edge of the pool putting her legs in the water, and then she splashed Adam back.

"Sara!" Adam playfully shoved her shoulder."

----

Sara woke up feeling someone shaking her.

"Adam 5 more minutes please." She said not wanting to open her eyes.

"You wish it was Adam." Gina laughed. "We're here girl, now wake your ass up.

Sara opened her eyes and gasped. "Holy shit! This isn't the Idol mansion is it?!" Sara then pulled a mirror out of her purse to make sure her hair was not a disaster.

"Yes it is! Isn't it huge?!" Gina laughed at Sara's reaction.

"It's gorgeous too!" Sara said as the girls got out of the car.

Just as they were getting out of the car, the front door of the mansion opened, and Kris and Adam walked out to greet the girls. Adam was wearing a light blue button down shirt, but the first few buttons at the top were not buttoned, showing a little bit of skin. He was also wearing white pants and his snake skin boots. She thought she was going to pass out, but she did not want to do that.

"Hi! You're Sara right?" Adam smiled walking up to me.

"Yes," Sara blushed a little "What is your name again? Andy?" she joked.

"Close, it's actually Adam." He giggled. "Welcome to the Idol mansion." He said giving Sara a hug.

"Aww, thank you Adam. I am such a big fan of yours. I think Kris is great too."

Kris approached Sara then and reached for her hand. "You must be Sara."

"Yes, it's so nice to meet you Kris. Gina talks a lot about you." Sara smiled shaking Kris's hand.

Kris made a nervous face. "They were good things I hope."

Sara laughed. "They were nothing but good things, no worries."

Gina and Adam exchanged hugs as well. Adam was one of the most gorgeous guys Sara had ever seen. His eyes were a gorgeous shade of blue and his smile made her melt every time.

"Are you coming Sara?" Adam smiled and took her arm in his.

"Yeah, I am now." she smiled.

They all walked into the mansion. The girls were in awe of how big and beautiful it was inside the mansion.

"This is so beautiful!" Gina gasped.

"I've never been in a house like this!" Sara said excitedly.

"We cleaned this place up a little before you girls got here." Kris said as he closed the door.

"What? I thought you would have a maid." Gina laughed.

"We do." Adam laughed. "but we figured we would do the cleaning ourselves."

---------

Later in the evening after they had dinner. Gina and Sara sat on the couch. Adam and Kris were going to sing for them. Kris went first singing "On Our Way." Which was absolutely beautiful, and it made both of the girls cry. After he was done, he got up and hugged Gina, which was really cute.

Now it was Adam's turn to sing. Sara tried to wipe away her tears which messed up her eyeliner a little bit, but she did not see the point in wiping them away, she was sure Adam's performance would make her cry again.

All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow

And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world mad world

Children waiting for the day they feel good
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday
And I feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me

And I find it kinda funny
I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying
Are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles
It's a very, very mad world ... mad world
Enlarging your world
Mad world

When Adam let out the last few notes, there was so much passion behind them, it looked like he was tearing up a little.

Sara was tearing up as well. She teared up when she saw him sing it on the show, but this time she heard it in such a personal setting. She got up and gave him a big hug.

"Adam, that was beautiful." She told him.

"Thank you so much." Adam said kissing her cheek.

Kris starred into Gina's beautiful hazel eyes as she watched Adam sing. she caught him looking at her and he smiled before kissing her cheek. that was the closest he could get to her even though he wanted to be so much closer.

"Your turn to sing." Kris said to her once Adam had finished. he had always loved to hear Gina sing even though she always argued with him she could not carry a tune in a bucket.

"Kris you know damn well i can't sing." Gina said as she rolled her eyes upwards as she shook her head like he had said something crazy.

"That is a lie." Sara said rolling her own eyes "you sing all the time in the car and i always tell you that you have an amazing voice."

"Come on i want to hear you sing." Adam encouraged her as he set in front of her prepared to listen and be the judge of her voice. Gina before she started to sing along to the latest Jordin Sparks song..

Don't try to explain your mind
I know what's happening here
One minute it's love
And suddenly it's like a battle-field

One word turns into a
Why is it the smallest things that tear us down
My world's nothing when you don't
I'm not here without a shield
Can't go back now

Both hands tied behind my back with nothing
Oh no, these times when we climb so fast to fall again
Why we gotta fall for it now
I never meant to start a war
You know I never wanna hurt you
Don't even know what we're fighting for

Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield? (x2)
Why does love always feel like..

Can't swallow our pride,
Neither of us wanna raise that flag, mhmm
If we can't surrender then we both gonna lose what we had, oh no

Both hands tied behind my back with nothing
Oh no, these times when we climb so fast to fall again
I don't wanna fall for it now
I never meant to start a war
You know I never wanna hurt you
Don't even know what we're fighting for

Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield? (x2)

I guess you better go and get your armor, (get your armor) get your armor
I guess you better go and get your armor, (get your armor) get your armor
I guess you better go and get your...

We could pretend that we are friends tonight (oh-oh-oh)
And in the morning we'll wake up and we'll be alright
Cause baby we don't have to fight
And I don't want this love to feel like..

A battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield,
Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield

I guess you better go and get your armor...

I never meant to start a war
You know I never wanna hurt you
Don't even know what we're fighting for (fighting, fighting for)

Why does love always feel like a battlefield, a battlefield, a battlefield? (x2)

I guess you better go and get your armor, (get your armor) get your armor
I guess you better go and get your armor, (get your armor) get your armor

Why does love always feel like...
Why does love always feel like...
A battlefield, a battlefield..

I never meant
to start a war
Don't even know
What we're fighting for

I never meant
to start a war
Don't even know
What we're fighting for

Kris sat there smiling knowing his best friend had something inside of her if she would just let lose and share it with others. he placed a arm around her before leaning in to whisper in her ear "Told you that you could sing, that was amazing."

"Thanks." Gina said softly "um, where is the room Sara and i are staying in? i am kinda tired from the long drive."

"Come on i will show you." Adam told her "i'm gong that way anyways."

"I think i will go lay down as well." Sara said as she stood to follow Gina and Adam. she could sense in her best friend's eyes that something was wrong and she would be needed.

Gina lay herself across one of the beds and let the tears begin to fall, Sara sat on the edge of the bed and placed her hand on her best friend's back. "you love him don't you?" Sara asked.

"So much that it hurts but what am i supposed to do? he is going through a divorce, plus he is my best friend." Gina said through her tears.

***
Kris stood in the kitchen looking out towards the pool when Adam came up behind him. the two guys stood there before Adam spoke.

"Didn't realize your love for her was that strong?" Adam asked.

"She is the one i should have married and i was stupid thinking i loved Katie." Kris said with a sigh "Gina and i almost had our chance and i let it get away from me."

"What happened?" Adam asked.

"I had asked Gina to join me at a party, i got drunk and acted stupid and she told me then she didn't want anything to do with me. it took two years before we even spoke again." Kris said shaking his head "by then i had found Katie."

"Now is your chance." Adam said to him as he placed his hand on his friend's shoulder.

"But would she be willing to give me a second chance?" Kris wanted to know.

Gina stood in front of the mirror in the girls bedroom that night wearing a short black cocktail dress, her long brown hair layed in curls down her back and her make-up looked perfect. she was ready for a night on the town with Kris, Adam, and Sara.

"You look beautiful." Kris said from the doorway. he was dressed in a pair of Khaki pants and a blue button down shirt he looked so sexy standing there and she had to bite her lip to keep from making the sexual sound wanting to escape from her lips.

"Is everyone ready to go?" Gina asked as she walked towards him he took her by the hand and kissed it before the two linked arms before walking down the long hallway together meeting up with Adam and Sara.

"Were going to be seen with two of the most beautiful girls in Hollywood tonight." Adam said before he kissed Sara's hand. Gina smiled at how well he and Sara were getting along. they looked adorable together.

***
It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear.
She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair.
And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."

We go to a party and everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."

I feel wonderful because I see
The love light in your eyes.
And the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.

It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,
So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."

Gina rested her head on Kris's shoulder as they shared a slow dance together. being there in his arms felt so right and it took her back to the party they had attended in highschool which happened to be the night they got into the argument that kept them from speaking for awhile.

Kris took in the smell of Gina's perfume and smiled he missed being near her and now that he had her in his arms he planned to keep her there forever.

Sara was in the bathroom that the girls were sharing getting ready for a night out with Adam, Kris and Gina. She decided to wear a soft teal top that hung down past her hips. She also had a pair of black capri pants on and short bronze heels. Her feet would probably hurt later, but she wanted to look cute for Adam, even though she knew that he was not into girls, but she could not help that she was attracted to him.

Sara was putting on some of her make-up when she saw Adam walk past the bathroom, but he saw her in there. He walked in wearing a really nice black suit jacket, a black shirt underneath that showed some of his chest, the infamous stripped pants, and black boots. His eyes were his best feature though, the black eyeliner really made his eyes stand out more. Her heart pounded faster and her stomach was doing flip flops. He looked so sexy, if Sara looked at him much longer he would catch her checking him out. So she looked at her self in the mirror and pretended not to notice him walking in.

"Hey Sara." Adam smiled as he walked up to her.

Sara turned to face him. "Hi Adam. I love your outfit!" she laughed. Adam was always talking about his outfits on Idol.

"Thank you! I like your dress! It's beautiful on you, wait no you make the dress look beautiful." Adam smiled giving Sara a hug and kissing her on the cheek.

"Aww, thank you Adam!" Sara blushed. "Can you help me with my eye-liner please? Yours always looks amazing."

Sara took her charcoal eyeliner out of her make-up bag. "I have tried to smudge it with my fingers like you said, but I can't make it smudge." She giggled at how ridiculous she sounded.

"Sure! I will make you look fabulous!" Adam smiled taking the eyeliner out of Sara's hand. "Close your eyes."

She closed her right eye, her heart pounded again. He was so close to her. He drew the eyeliner along her lash line.

"This is a really nice color." Adam commented as he concentrated putting on the eyeliner, he stuck his tongue out a little as he did so. "It brings out your gorgeous eyes."

"Thank you." Sara said closing her left eye, she tried not to think naughty thoughts as she saw Adam sticking his tongue out. "You have really amazing eyes too." When she thought he was done, she started pulling away a little.

"Wait, I need to smudge it with my fingers." Adam said. "There, now you can tell me how I did."

Sara looked at herself in the mirror. "I love it! It's awesome! Thank you so much!"

"WOOOOO!" Adam smiled. "Do you need help with anything else pretty lady?"

"No, I am ready to go!" Sara smiled and grabbed her little pink purse off the counter, and then Adam held out his arm, which she gladly accepted and linked arms with him. They walked out into the hallway to wait for Kris and Gina.

"Is everyone ready to go?" Gina asked walking towards Kris who took her hand and kissed it. Sara thought they were so cute together. Sara and Adam both smiled at them.

"We're going to be seen with two of the most beautiful girls in Hollywood tonight." Adam said before he took Sara's hand in his and brought it up to his gorgeous lips and kissed it.

------

I don't wanna fall asleep
'Cause I don't know if I'll get up
And I don't wanna cause a scene
'Cause I'm dyin' without your love, yeah
Begging to hear your voice
Tell me you love me too
'Cause I'd rather just be alone
If I know that I can't have you

So tell me what we're fighting for
'Cause we know that truth means so much more
'Cause you would if you could, don't lie
'Cause I give everything that I've got left
To show you I mean what I have said
I know I was such a fool
But I can't live without you

Sara rested her head against Adam's chest and he rested his chin on the top of Sara's head as they danced together. She wished she could reach his shoulder, but he was too tall, even with the heels she was wearing. She loved being in his arms, this would probably be the most physical thing that Adam was willing to do with her, she understood. She couldn't make him like her they way that she liked him, even though he has kissed her on the cheek, she knew he was just being a sweetheart.

-------
It was around 1:30am when they all decided they wanted to go back to the mansion. They walked out of the club. Sara and Adam linked arms with each other, and Kris and Gina were doing the same as they walked down the street together towards Adam's car.

Adam noticed a camera guy in between some cars coming towards them, Adam guessed they were from TMZ, they have followed him once before. Adam pulled Sara closer to himself.

"Hi guys." Adam waved to the camera. Kris waved as well.

"How are you tonight?" TMZ asked the guys.

"We're great. Thanks." Kris said as the four of them kept walking, but the camera still followed.

The girls were were a little freaked out by this, but they were expecting something like this to happen, but they were not prepared for it.

"Who are these pretty ladies?" TMZ asked Adam. Sara tried to hide her face in Adam's arm.

Adam put his arm around Sara. "They're just a few friends of ours." Adam said as they finally made it to Adam's car, he unlocked it, and opened the front door for Sara. Kris opened the back door for Gina. The girls got into the car.

"So who's gonna win on Wednesday?" TMZ asked Kris this time.

Kris and Adam looked at each other, and pointed. "He will!"

Kris got into the back with Gina, and Adam went around to the driver's side, and opened the door. "You have a good night now." Adam said as he got into the car.

Adam pulled into the drive of the mansion, both girls had fallen asleep. Adam looked and Kris through the rearview mirror and both guys smiled at the sight of the two girls.

"They look so sweet and i hate to wake them." Adam said softly so he wouldn't wake Gina or Sara.

"I'll get Gina and you get Sara, they will just have to sleep in what they have on." Kris said as he opened the car door. carefully he got out then went to the other side of the car where he lifted Gina into his arms and carried her into the mansion, Adam did the same with Sara.

Kris turned and looked back at Gina he remained standing there for a few seconds smiling before he turned the light off then went to the kitchen where Adam had his head in the freezer.

"Ice cream?" Kris asked with a laugh as he got two bowls from the cabinet, one for him and one for Adam. he set down at the island in the middle of the mansion's kitchen while he watched Adam scoop the ice cream.

"Kris, i need to talk to you about something." Adam said with a sigh. Kris had never seen Adam look so serious in the 3-4 months they had been sharing a room together "it's about Sara."

"What about her?" Kris look confused then suddenly the look in Adam's eyes gave way to what was wrong "damnm dude your falling for her aren't you? but what about..."

"I've always been bi-curious and i have tried to tell myself not to fall for her but dammit it's hard." Adam said shaking his head.

"Trust me i know what your feeling." Kris said with a sigh "but Adam you have nothing holding you back from telling her what you feel."

"And you have nothing holding you back from telling Gina how you feel." Adam told Kris "dude the girls is head over heels for you, i can see it in her eyes when she looks at you, when you walk into a room."

Gina opened her eyes the next morning to the sun shining in her eyes she groaned before pulling the cover back over her head. she smelled food cooking in the kitchen so she kicked the covers back that's when she realized she was still wearing her dress from the night before.

Gina made her way into the kitchen where Adam was sitting at the table drinking a cup of coffee, on the stove eggs and bacon were cooking and she guessed toast was in the oven cooking.

"Damn any guy would be lucky to have you as his boyfriend." Gina smiled as she poured her own self a cup of coffee then joined him at the table.

"Thanks." Adam smiled at her "sleep well?"

"Did i fall asleep in the car or was i so drunk last night i just crashed in my dress?" Gina wanted to know.

"You girls fell asleep in the car so Kris and i carried you in and put you to bed." Adam told her "breakfast will be done soon. can you go wake Kris and Sara for me?"

"Yeah sure." Gina said as she stood from the table. she decided to wake Kris first so she made her way down to the basement. as she opened the door she could see Kris snuggled in his bed still sleeping. he looked adorable and she hated to wake him "Kris, sweetie, it's time for breakfast." she said as she gave him a gentle shake.

"Alright." Kris said softly as he opened his eyes then smiled at her "i will be up soon babe."

The next morning Sara heard Gina wake up, but she wasn't ready to get up yet. Before sleep could come over her again she could smell breakfast cooking in the kitchen, and her stomach started growling at her. She opened her eyes and sat up, she was confused about why she was still in her clothes from last night, she was sure her hair looked awful and her make-up smeared all over her face. She got up and changed into a pair of sweat pants and a t-shirt. Then she went into the bathroom to wash her face and brush her hair.

"HAI girl HAI!" Gina said to Sara as she walked into the bathroom.

"HAI!" Sara laughed as she hugged her best friend.

Gina laughed too. "Last night was fun wasn't it?"

"Yes, it was fun, you and Kris looked so cute dancing together." Sara said.

"Aww, thanks! You and Adam looked cute too!" Gina smiled.

"Thanks, I loved dancing with him." Sara smiled back and then sighed.

"Is there something wrong?" Gina asked putting her hand on Sara's shoulder.

"Yeah, there's something I want to tell you, but you already know, so it shouldn't surprise you."

"Tell me what?" Gina asked. She had a pretty good idea what Sara was going to say.

"I'm really starting to fall for Adam, but I don't know if he feels the same way about me or not, and I am already guessing that the chance of that happening is not very high." Sara sighed again, trying not to get emotional. "I know that I can't make his heart feel something that it doesn't, but that doesn't make this any easier."

Gina hugged Sara again. "I know that this kind of stuff can be so confusing, but I think you should tell him how you feel."

"You're right. I can see that you are falling for Kris too, I think you should tell him how you feel too, unless he beats you to it." Sara said.

----------

Adam was starting to put the food onto plates, as he did so his thoughts drifted back to the previous night when he had told Kris he was falling for Sara. He knew that he should tell her how he felt, but it was easier said than done. On top of that, there was the finale that he needed to start preparing for.

"Hey Adam." Kris walked up behind Adam giving him a hug.
Adam smiled and turned around. "Hey Kris." Adam hugged him back

"Aww! A Kradam moment!" Sara smiled as she walked into the kitchen.

"You two make an adorable couple!" Gina teased. "I am so glad it is you two who are in the finale together."

"Good morning ladies." Adam laughed, and he walked over to Sara and hugged her. "Did you sleep well?"

"Yes, I slept great. I heard you made us breakfast." Sara smiled. Adam even looked fabulous in the mornings. He looked so cute with bed hair. "It smells so good."

The four of them sat down at the table together and ate the delicious breakfast that Adam made, they made small talk. Sara noticed that Adam wasn't really being himself and she thought she saw him staring at her, but she did just wake up so maybe she was just imagining it.

After breakfast Gina went to shower then dressed in a pair of denim shorts with a white tee tank. she pulled her curly hair back into a ponytail then looked at her reflection in the mirror. she was kidding herself, there was no way Kris would fall in love with her. she was nowhere near as pretty as his soon to be ex wife. why was she putting herself through this.

"Gina can you come with me shopping for something to wear the night of the finale?" Kris wantedto know as he appeared in the doorway. he looked so sexy in his baggy shorts and white wife beater with a backwards cap on his head.

"Sure babe." Gina said as she smiled at him "just let me apply my make-up and then we can leave.

"Why do you fool with the make-up?" Kris asked as he set on the counter beside the sink "haven't i always told you that you don't need it?"

"Kris your crazy if you think i don't need make-up." Gina said rolling her eyes upwards. she watched Kris out of the corner of her eye he put dirty thoughts in her head and as much as she enjoyed those thoughts she had to stop thinking of him in that way.

Gina finished her make-up then she and Kris told Sara and Adam they were leaving. the got into Gina's car and they were alone for the first time since Gina had arrived.

"What do you have in mind to wear the night of the finale?" Gina asked him.

"I was thinking maybe a pair of jeans and a dressy type of jacket." Kris said shrugging his shoulder "casual is my signature style."

"We will see what we can find." Gina said as she concentrated on driving "just tell me where to go babe and i will go."

"Is something wrong?" Kris asked her, he looked at her and noticed she tensed up when he asked the question.

"Why would you think something was wrong?" Gina wanted to know.

"Your just not acting like yourself today." Kris told her "are you feeling alright? do we need to go back to the mansion?"

"Kris i am fine." Gina laughed "please don't worry about me, you have enough to worry about. i should be the last thing."

The day was spent shopping they left with a pair of black jeans that fit him nice, a white t-shirt, and a black jacket. he looked good in the outfit

After Gina and Kris left to go shopping, Sara went to take a shower and got dressed. Sara realized that she was alone with Adam in the mansion. The thought excited her and made her nervous at the same time. She felt comfortable being herself around him, but she was afraid she would do something to embarrass herself in front of him. She was falling for him more everyday, and she was afraid to tell him anything with the fear of scaring him off, and she didn't want that to happen.

She was brushing her hair when she heard a knock at the door. She knew it was Adam, and her heart beat picked up speed once again as it always did when she was around him. She walked over to the door and opened it. He stood there wearing jeans, a grey t-shirt with a pretty black design on it, a white jacket and his snake skin boots. It was a simple outfit but he looked sexy in anything.

"Hey Sara. What are you doing?" Adam asked.

"I was just making myself look fabulous! You know, the usual." Sara said.

"You did a great job with the eyeliner, who taught you?" Adam smiled.

"Oh some guy I know." Sara shrugged and then laughed.

Adam laughed too and he looked at Sara's bed and he noticed a copy of the Twilight dvd on it next to her computer.

"You're a Twilight fan too?!" Adam got excited and hugged Sara

"Yes! I am! I was gonna come down and ask if you wanted to watch it with me, since I know you like Twilight too, and we have the mansion to ourselves." Sara smiled.

"It's a date then!" Adam kissed Sara's cheek.

"Awesome!" Sara grabbed the movie off of her bed. "Where are we watching it?"

"We'll watch it downstairs on the big screen!" Adam smiled as he took her hand.

They passed through the kitchen to get to the big screen tv.

"Hey let's have ice cream while we watch it!" Sara suggested.

"WOOOO great idea! I'll set up the movie and we'll get ice cream!" Adam took the movie out of Sara's hand and turned the tv on.

"Hey Adam? Where are the bowls?" Sara asked. He didn't answer. "Adam?" She asked again.

Adam snuck up behind her quietly and grabbed her around the waist and pretended to bite her neck.

Sara jumped. "Oh my God! Adam, you scared me! What do you think you are? A vampire?"

"Hellz yeah I'm a vampire!" Adam made a sexy face showing his teeth. Adam got two bowls for them. "I'll get your ice cream for you honey. Go make yourself comfortable."

After the movie was over Adam and Sara both felt pretty tired. Sara was resting her head on Adam's shoulder, she was almost asleep.

"Do you want to take a nap with me?" Adam asked as he kissed Sara on the forehead.

"Sure, that would be great." Sara yawned.

Adam helped Sara into the bed with him, she fell asleep with her head on his chest and she thought she felt his lips kissing her forehead. Adam fell asleep soon after with one arm wrapped around Sara.

The night of the finale arrived Gina dressed in the same dress she wore the night they went out with the guys, Sara dressed in the same outfit she had wore that night. the girls had front row seats and were excited for the show.

"Girls, the guys would like to see you backstage." a producer said to them he took them by the hand and took them backstage with the guys. Adam and Kris were both sitting on the couch backstage they stood when they saw the girls.

"You look beautiful as always." Kris told Gina before he kissed her hand "are your seats alright?"

"Yeah, our seats are amazing." Gina smiled before she kissed his cheek "you look good tonight Kris."

"Thanks babe." Kris told her as he took in a deep breath "i'm starting to get nervous though."

"Your going to win." Gina said as she leaned in to hug her "you have no need to worry sweetie. i am have confidence in you."

Gina and Sara held hands tightly 3 hours later as they waited for Ryan Seacrest to reveal the results of the voting the night before. Gina could hear hear heart pounding and she was sure Sara's was doing the same.

"And the winner, of American Idol 2009 is...Kris Allen." Ryan announced. Gina watched as Kris gasped with shock through the tears in her own eyes. Kris deserved this and she couldn't be happier for him.

Once the show was over the girls had a few seconds to go backstage with the guys before they had to meet with the press. Gina walked right into Kris's arms and was surprised when he greeted her with a kiss so passionate it took her breath away.

"I..Kris.." Gina started to say.

"Don't say anything please." Kris told her "i've loved you for the longest time Gina and i think it is time i stop fighting that. i know you feel the same about me."

"Oh you do?" Gina asked with a smile before she kissed his lips "good thing we know one another so well."

~*~*~
It had been a week since Kris was crowned the American Idol winner. Gina and Kris were a couple and they couldn't be happier together. now they packed for a trip to new york where the guys would be doing television interviews and performances.

Kris looked up at Adam who had been in the bathroom he was rubbing at and clearing his throat. Kris knew something was wrong with his friend.

"How bad is it hurting?" Kris asked as he zipped his luggage.

"Not so bad right now, but i know i am getting sick, i have that feeling in my throat that i am." Adam said with a sigh "this is just fucking great,"

"Have you told Sara yet how you feel for her?" Kris asked walking over towards Adam and handing him a cough drop.

"I'm still trying to decide how i am going to tell her." Adam said as he placed the cough drop in his mouth "i don't know how she is going to take the news that a gay man is falling in love with her."

"It might freak her out a little but then again you don't know how she feels about you." Kris told him.
