Sarah gasped for air when it left her lungs and slumped against the F-350. She opened her eyes to<br />
Cameron's displeased features and bright blue eyes. Her breath hitched because it seemed like<br />
Cameron's eyes glowed blue, but it had to be the overhead light.<br />
"I do not wish to harm you," Cameron informed in a low voice.<br />
Sarah had constricted features but painfully managed, "You said I could go."<br />
"Yes," Cameron softly agreed then amended, "But I didn't say I would allow you."<br />
Sarah developed dark features at this, and she shoved against Cameron yet found it impossible, for<br />
some reason. She was pressed against the truck harder. "Why are you doing this"<br />
The terminator looked over her shoulder because she heard another truck coming to the gas station. She<br />
focused back on Sarah. "To protect you."<br />
Sarah clenched her jaw and coldly stared at the terminator, who wouldn't release her. She saw the large<br />
man get out of his truck and approached the store. She decided to get his attention and raised her voice.<br />
"You want to kill me."<br />
Cameron kept her right arm locked across Sarah's chest. She carefully slipped the gun in her waistband<br />
once she detected somebody coming up behind her. She could handle the situation peacefully or with<br />
dire consequences so she made her choice.<br />
Sarah plastered herself against the truck when she realized Cameron's intent. But there was nothing she<br />
could do when Cameron leaned down and captured her lips. At first Sarah fought the kiss then it was<br />
useless after Cameron's hand threaded into her hair.<br />
The man behind cleared his throat and hesitantly asked, "Everything alright, ladies"<br />
Cameron withdrew from the kiss and turned her head sidelong. "We're fine." She gave a faint smirk and<br />
explained, "My girlfriend sometimes gets rough."<br />
The man was obviously bashful about the situation. "Not my business... sorry for interrupting." He<br />
hastily left the apparent couple alone but muttered, "Must be from San Fran."<br />
The terminator finally focused back on her charge, who had a dazed expression. "If my mission was to<br />
kill you then you'd been dead awhile ago."<br />
Sarah lifted her head off the truck and shoved aside what'd happened a moment ago. She bit her lower<br />
lip at Cameron's honest words. She sighed and murmured "What choice do I have now"<br />
Cameron removed her arm from Sarah's chest. "It is inefficient to argue about this anymore."<br />
Sarah resigned to it, finally. "Alright." She was relieved once the tall, muscular woman moved off her.<br />
She let out a shaky breath and slipped past Cameron to go to the passenger side. On her way to the<br />
passenger door, she shook her left hand that still hurt from the punch. There was no reason why that<br />
could have hurt so badly plus Cameron was never affected by it.<br />
The terminator climbed back into the Ford truck and saw that Sarah had done the same. She first pulled<br />
out her gun and repositioned it to the back of her waistband. She finally started the truck and left the
