Wish For Something More
Title: Wish For Something More
Fandom: Heroes
Rating/Genre: g/gen
Characters/Pairing: Sandra Bennet, Angela Petrelli
Summary: No plot in this one. Just a conversation between Angela and Sandra
Word count: 325
Spoilers/Warnings: No.
Notes: This is only “talking heads”, I’m sorry… I know that lynchgrrrl88 had a totally different request, but… maybe later. This is just Angela being nice, don’t ask me why… It came out of the Challenge:
1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Turn your music player on and turn it on random.
3. Write a drabble/ficlet related to each song that plays. You only have the length of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts and stop when it's over.
4. Do five of these and post them.
This is the second. The first one is Thanks For Nothing (not Angela-related).
You know, sometimes I just… wish for something more, Sandra Bennet sighed.
What do you mean?
I mean, when Noah and I got married, he was so… but over the years he changed…
I know, Angela said, men change.
And all the lies, year after year…
It was for your protection. You know that. He has always protected you.
I guess you would know. You probably know him better than I do.
Don’t say that. I know him, it’s true. But you’re the one who is his wife.
But it doesn’t matter, does it? I’ve seen the way he looks at you… Mrs. Petrelli.
Oh, but Sandra, please…
I know it’s true. But I don’t care.
You don’t? I’m sure you do. We wouldn’t be having this conversation if you don’t.
It’s not that I don’t understand him. He lives for his work, I’ve always known that - I just didn’t know what his work really was about. And you’re a part of that life. And you’re a very attractive woman…
But Sandra, so are you. You’re the one he chose to be with and he loves you.
Can he really be in love with both of us?
Well… why not? Why should it only be possible to love one person?
Oh, you… why are you saying these things?
Because I don’t want you to look so sad. I don’t want you to think that your life has been worth nothing. You’ve been a good wife and mother, you have taken good care of Claire…
But that’s over now, isn’t it? Now that Claire knows that she’s a Petrelli…
No, I’m not taking her away from you. I promise you that. Let’s… let’s be friends, Sandra?
Oh, I sure wouldn’t want you as my enemy. No, I’m sorry. Yes. Yes, of course we can be friends. We have the same priorities in life, haven’t we?
The family.
To protect them, to love them. And forgive them.
