All You Wanted
"Cause it was
All you wanted
And all I needed
But all I gave up, now
Could you hold me tighter
When worlds collide
Just hold me down right now."
-Sounds Under Radio- All You Wanted
xXx
I sighed as I washed the dishes, the scouring pad itching my hand as I did so. I picked the plate up now and stuck it on the draining board to air dry, then stuck my hand back in the water, only to yank it back out with a cry of. "Ouch-!"
Now I swore as I grabbed a towel and wrapped it hastily around my injured hand, swearing under my breath a little as I did do. I removed it, only to feel squeamish and put it back around. It wasn't that deep, but I was going to need stitches for sure.
I emptied the bloodied water out of the sink and saw the knife that had done the damage. A sharp thin one I used for cutting up meat. I hesitantly looked at the gash and sighed in relief- it had stopped bleeding. Maybe I wouldn't need the hospital after all, but I did grab a pure white bandage and wrapped it tightly around the cut.
The front door opened now, then a call of. "Taylor?"
"Kitchen!" I called, and a few footsteps later, my roommate Darcy came in, dumping her chic little pink bag down on the table, then gasped. "What have you done to your hand-!"
I chuckled a little as Darcy forced me to sit down and took my hand in hers, unwinding the bandage and tittered a little at it, then got up and dashed to her room, returning with her medical kit- she was studying medicine with hopes to become a Doctor, or go to medical school next year.
I hissed a little as she poured some cleaning fluid onto the cut, making sure it was clean before she inspected it and smiled, pushing her honey blonde out of her eyes. "It's clean enough. Don't worry- it'll heal fine."
Now I just sighed in relief and she wound another clean bandage around it, chuckling. "Good job it was your left, not right or your college work would be well and truly stuffed."
Hell I agreed there, then I heard a bang on the wall, as if something had fallen against it. I frowned- the apartment next door was vacant, but it certainly sounded as if someone was moving or moved in.
Now Darcy grinned and said. "And that just reminded me- we have a new neighbour!"
I blinked a little, then raised an eyebrow at why she was looking so happy. "And-?" I pressed, and she nearly squealed. "It's a super hot guy!"
"Shush-!" I pressed, hoping that the "Super Hot Guy" hadn't heard her excited outburst. Darcy had a tendancy to react. Overreact I meant.
But she had such dopeish taste in men. They always used her, which was why I was feeling aprehensive about this new one she had her eyes on. He was bound to be trouble with all the trimmings. Probably one of the freaking gang look-a-likes again.
Great (!)
I sighed and heard another quieter bang, then silence.
Darcy came out of the bathroom now, wearing her spotted pink and brown shorts and pink top with a brown heart in the middle. She looked like a piece of candy with her slightly curled long honey blonde hair falling around her shoulders like a waterfall and super cute bright blue eyes. Me, on the other hand, was tall, slim with long flowing dark caramel hair and deep dark chocolate eyes.
She collapsed onto the sofa and turned the TV on, grabbing the remote and turning the channel over to some CSI drama. She turned and grinned at me, knowing I was doing Law Study, but I couldn't stand those freaking stupid cop shows.
There was a lecture in the morning, then we had the week off. Thank goodness. I needed to study for a test in art. A big piece in which I had to draw someone. Great (!) no one ever stayed still long enough for it.
So, in short, I was beyond stressed. Way beyond stressed...
"I'm beat." I told her with a sigh, then turned and went to my room, collapsing as Darcy had did, but upon the bed, pulling the covers over me, and closing my eyes, then groaned as I forgot to switch the lights off. I yelled at Darcy to switch them off, and then told her thanks as she did so. Then I turned onto my back and stared at the ceiling not really seeing it through the darkness.
But so was someone else.
Sam sighed, staring up at the ceiling of his new apartment, first class in the morning. It was going to be... strange without his brother and father around. Just himself. But this was a fresh start, and he had to grab it. A chance at being normal.
This was what he wanted... right-? To go to college-? Because here he was, laid on his new bed, a hole in the wall from where he tripped over the bed and elbowed it. Great. He'd hurt something already (!)
He turned over and faced the window where he hadn't bothered to close the curtians, staring out at the bright lights of the city.
He closed his eyes now, wondering what the next day was going to bring.
When I woke up the next morning, it was raining. What a lovely start to the day (!)
As I pulled the brush through my hair, Darcy came back into the room, an umbrella in her hand as she said. "I gotta head off early. Sorry. Yanis wants that essay in before class starts."
I smiled and nodded as she left and the front door slammed behind her, bustling aound already.
A little while later, I grabbed my folder and opened the door, only to be faced by the torrential downpour. Here-? In Florida-? Urgh.
As I closed the door and locked it, I stepped back and collided into someone, making me trip over and my folder go flying into a puddle, probably ruining my artwork.
"Oh s-! I'm so sorry. Did I hurt you-?"
I felt someone help me to my feet, and as I brushed my hair from my eyes, saw the slightly dripping folder being picked up, then held out to me. I looked up now and suddenly understood why Darcy had been so excited. Next doors front door was ajar, key still in the lock.
He was tall. That was the first thing I noted. Easily hitting the 6'0 mark anyway. Cute and hot at the same time with his longish brown hair and concerned hazel eyes.
"Umm, I'm good thanks." I said, half managing a smile as I took my folder from him, then he chuckled and said, glancing at my door. "Do you live here?"
I nodded, then he grinned. "Well hello neighbour then." and held out a hand, which I took and said. "Taylor." He nodded and said. "Sam." I chuckled, then he just looked down at his hand, which I was still holding. I let go hastily, then he closed his own door and asked. "What are you studying?"
I opened my umbrella now, then promptly dropped it from my lack of free hands. Sam picked it up and laughed. "How about I hold it and you talk?"
Now I laughed and nodded. "Deal. And Law. I'm studying Law and Art."
Sam grinned now, then said. "I'm doing Law too." My grin widened and I said with a frown. "Did you know today was the last day of the-?"
"Yeah, but I thought it'd be better to get aquainted and stuff."
"Wow. Most people wouldn't bother until the next class."
Sam chuckled, and I felt water go into my shoe a little as I stepped into a puddle. "So you got a seminar first thing?" I asked as we stepped onto the college grounds, the other students running past, folders over their heads to stop their hair from getting wet. It looked rather comedic as well.
Sam nodded and closed the umbrella as we went inside, then I saw the time and groaned. We had been walking a tad slow, and the talk was about to start anytime.
We both jogged to the hall, then I groaned as I saw all the seats took, then a sigh of relief when there were two at the top, which we swiftly took. Sam quickly went down to the front to give our proffesor a letter or something. But before he went, I saw his full name-
Sam Winchester.
When he returned, he sighed a little then smiled at me. "So Tamsin-"
"Taylor."
"Oh crap. Sorry."
"Don't worry! I get worse."
Sam smiled, then we both shut up as the talk started.
When the seminar ended, the rain had stopped, and I asked Sam if he wanted any lunch or dinner, my treat. He tried to politely decline, but I raised an eyebrow and he sighed. "I gotta set up my apartment, but dinner sounds great."
I grinned and said. "Okay then! Does mushroom risotto sound alright? Me and my roommate have it on a Friday." He nodded. "Sure, sounds great! About six then?"
We had reached the apartments now, pulling out our keys, Sam asked. "Um... without sounding like an idiot. I can't get the electricity to come on."
I frowned, then walked into Sams apartment. It was roughly the same size as mine in the living room, but from the open door, I saw that his bedroom was twice as large as my own, but that was probably why- he had one while I had two. Darcy had shared for nearly four months now after her parents kicked her out. But they still, thankfully, paid for her tutition. Great, just throw her out then yeah?
I went into the kitchen now, opening a cupboard and staring at the switches which I flipped and the lights came on.
"Thanks, I completely forgot to grab something to eat, so I didn't realize..." Sam said now, sounding a little embarassed. I waved it away and just said. "Hey- we all have this trouble when we first come. Don't worry-" I wiggled my eyebrow teasingly. "I won't tell anyone."
He chuckled and just said. "Well, thanks again Tay. Have to admit, I was a little worried about joining up and becoming that "lone ranger" thing." He laughed once more and said. "My mind has been put at ease anyway."
I smiled once more- his good looks and charms had won me over completely. Darcy hadn't been wrong; he was a gorgeous genuinely nice guy.
But I didn't know then about the secrets surrounding this hottie, and what the future held...
Well, no Jess in this one, and will eventually hit S1, kinda AU-ish when it does, but will be following it to a certain extent as a Sam/OC. Gonna be much better than it sounds. Promise(: So, reviews would be very much loved and appreciated:D next up later on! X (and sorry if there's spelling mistakes etc- somethings up with my uploader. This freaking site sometimes makes me sooo angry:)
