She sat on the dock ground legs hanging over the side as she listened to the silence of the water hitting the rocks below and the low sobs. Her high heels sat next to her. She didn't know how she was going to tell Jason because they had finally gotten back to a good spot between them and they were both wanting to start a family. but she just found out that she couldn't have anymore kids. This divested her. She wanted to have another child, Jason's child to be exact. She was still in her Metro-Court uniform because her doctor's appointment had been on her break. She still had an hour before she had to go back. Sam's heart was broke right into. And she was going to have to break Jason's. Sam sat their crying to herself totally invested in her own thoughts to notice someone had been watching her. He watched her from a distance at first. He didn't really know her. They had talked occasionally and ran into each other over the years but nothing more than that. Lucky watched as he listen to Sam cry. He didn't know her but it was unsettle that she would be this sad. Lucky started walking towards her and Sam heard a noise and saw him. She tried to wipe her eyes.
"Hey lucky"
"You ok Sam?"
"Yeah" But her face and heart said something completely different. "no" she said... finally...
"Wanna talk about it?"
"i don't want to bother you with my pathetic life"
"your not pathetic Sam?"
lucky sat down next to her. He didn't know her but yet he didn't like the fact that something had her so upset. he had never seen Sam cry.
"Why are you being so nice to me?"
"Because I don't like seeing you cry"
Sam used her sleeve and whipped her eyes hoping she would stop crying.
"So tell me what has you all upset Sam"
"I'm fine, see i stopped crying" less then a second after saying that tears were rolling down her face.
"Go ahead and tell me Sam"
"You wouldn't understand"
"Try me"
"It's just..." She looked at lucky a man she really didn't know. and she could tell he cared.
"Just what"
"I found out something heartbreaking today and i can't stand it"
"Ok, did Jason do something?"
" No and its going to devastate him to find out"
"Everything's going to be ok Sam"
"I don't think so"
"I don't want to be nosy but what was it that has you all upset that could be so bad"
"I had a doctors appointment today and it wasn't good news"
"Are you sick?"
"No"
"Then what?"
"I found out that I can't have children"
"I'm so sorry Sam, i had heard that you guys were trying to start a family"
"Thanks; well I have to go back to work"
"You think that's a good idea?"
"It will keep me busy"
"You shouldn't be alone, so ill walk you to the Metro-Court "
"You don't have to do that lucky"
"Well i am on my way to meet Elizabeth for dinner"
"Ok then"
They both stood up and Sam slipped her shoes back on and they headed off to the Metro-Court. They walked in silence for awhile before. Lucky broke the silence. he knew tears were still falling from her beautiful brown eyes. The entire time he had been sitting with her and walking her to the Metro-Court. He couldn't help but look at how beautiful she truly was.
"do you know how your going to tell Jason"
"no, he has been out of town for few days and hasn't picked up his phone, i told him that he needed to come home soon because we needed to talk. I think I even broke down in tears before hanging up"
"I am truly sorry Sam"
"Thank you lucky"
Silence engulfed them once again. this time it was Sam who broke it.
"So how are you and Elizabeth doing"
"Ok I guess, she agreed to dinner tonight which is good"
"That's great"
They reached Metro-Court and went in. Sam finally had stop crying.
"Thanks for walking with me"
"Its no problem"
they were now at the front desk talking when Elizabeth came in and she headed over to them. Lucky smiled at Liz as he waited for her.
"Hey Sam."
"Hey."
"You ready lucky?"
"Yeah."
"Thanks again Lucky"
"Any time hope all goes better"
"Thanks"
With that Sam watched as they headed to the elevators. She was standing all alone She look through the lobby looking at the guest and employees. Max was making his normal round of the floor when he was stopped by Mateo. Carly was talking to sonny. Robin, Liz, Emily, Nik lucky were all at the elevator. lulu was talking with Alan and Maxie was just emerging from the boutique. The rest of the employees were doing what they normally do. when something outside the doors got Sam's attention but it was to late. Men in all black came bursting into the Metro-Court with guns held out.
"this is a robbery do as we say and no one will get hurt"
The men started making the rounds taking everyone's jewels and wallets. she had made eye contact with sonny and max a couple of times. When the men's backs were turned from her she slowly started moving towards the silent alarm. Sonny made some kind of gesture towards Sam making the gun men look at her but it was to late. the vault had been shut and Sam was the cause of it. The man gun men were furious.
"You made a big mistake there sweetheart and your going to pay"
he pointed the gun towards Sam and started firing. He hit almost everything at the desk Sam dashed behind the desk but not in enough time. She was shot. Everyone heard Sam scream and no one could tell if she was hurt. Carly along with a lot of other people had there mouth covered. Everyone was waiting in suspense if Sam was ok. Sam was in shock and out of it but she wasn't one to show the weakness. She slowly stood up holding her side. Everyone let out a gasp of relief not really knowing that she was shot since they couldn't see where she was shot.
"You ok Sam?" it took a lot for Sam to tell who said it and knew it was sonny. She forced herself to speck showing pain and no one new exactly why.
"Yeah I'm fine" it was a lie she wasn't going to let anyone know she was hurt.
"my, my, aren't you a touch cookie" the main gunmen said. "i think your going to be someone I'm not going to be able to leave alone." he then ordered one of his men to bring over a bag taking out one of their jumpsuits and walked over to Sam. Tossing it to her, she winced in pain. Lucky was suspicious of the way Sam was acting. He then saw it there was red going through her green uniform top. Sam had been shot and he knew it. the guy walked around to Sam and made sure she put it on knowing he hit her. "my, my, you are tough to work through the pain aren't you my dear" he laughed as he walked away from Sam and back towards the doors. it was taking all Sam had not to cry in pain or collapse. She stood against the wall it was the only thing now holding her up. She was all alone in this she had no one there for her. Sam had just kicked herself into survival mode and she wasn't going to let anything slow her down. Everyone's attention was turned to the guy speaking everyone except lucky. Sam had looked at him and then looked away. She knew he saw the blood and was happy he hadn't said anything. When Sam heard the next gun shot go off Sam turned her head to everyone else in the room and saw that robin was shot now. This time it was different. Liz, Emily and lulu had rushed to her side and was holding stuff to her side. Sam's breathing started getting heavy. That's when she knew this was not going to end good.
