Lucky and Sam are broken up since Sam never told Lucky about what happened with Jake when she watched him kidnapped or the time she hired two guys to harass Liz. It's been a couple weeks and a car hit Sam. It's her first day back at her place. What happens when Lucky stops by?

Sam sighed as she limped back to the couch, wearing a pair of white leggings, a black, cotton tank top, and a pair of short socks. She placed the cup of hot cocoa in her lap, leaning her head back. Her life was a mess and it was because of Liz opening her mouth. She should have told Lucky the truth from the beginning, but no, she got too wrapped up in her little world by having feelings for Lucky Spencer.

Meanwhile, Lucky thought about Sam as he rode up in the elevator to see her. He almost couldn't believe he was going to visit her, but some part of him still cared about her. He knew Elizabeth couldn't have hit Sam with her car since she wasn't that cruel. Lucky would defend Liz, since he had a feeling Sam would automatically think it was Liz. It was still unknown who hit her. Lucky got off the elevator and walked up to Sam's door, then knocked on it.

Sam heard knocking at the door and wondered who that could be since she wasn't expecting anyone. As she placed the mug of hot chocolate down on the coaster on the table, she pushed her legging on her right leg down to cover her bandage. As she opened the front door, she was surprised to see Lucky. She was trying so hard to get over him but here he was. "Um, what are you doing here?"

He looked her over once Sam opened the door. He was relieved to see she was doing ok, at least the part of him that still cared was. He wanted them to have a real shot at love but she hadn't been completely honest with him. "I just wanted to see if you're ok and to make sure you weren't blaming Elizabeth for what happened to you."

Sam looked at Lucky in complete shock and she rolled her eyes. She should have known he didn't come here to see her and she didn't know why she was even so surprised. "I don't know why I am not surprised... about you defending the saint, Elizabeth. Just to let you know, I am not blaming her, and I wasn't beforehand," Sam said with a huff, beginning to shut the door just so upset that he even said that.

Lucky stopped her from shutting the door with his right hand and stepped inside her apartment. "Good, that's what I was hoping you would say. I just figured you would go ahead and blame Elizabeth is all," he said as he felt more relieved, that is if she was speaking the truth.

Sam watched him step inside and she looked at him like he was crazy. "You have no right being here, Lucky," Sam said, placing her hands on her hips, limping back to the couch since she was tired, and her leg was starting to hurt again. All she knew was she just wanted things to get better for her since she was just so stressed out. Liz would rub it in her face that she was alone and how Liz was married to Jason. It still amazed her that Jason and Liz were married, especially for the long time Jason and her were engaged for.

Lucky closed the door behind him and walked over to sit on the couch beside her. "Look, a part of me actually still gives a damn about you so I'm here. Even though you've hurt everyone around you, I understand why you did it. You've made mistakes and so have I," Lucky said, wanting her to know why he even bothered to be there. The crazy thing was, he was still attracted to her, too, but he didn't know if he could ever forgive her for what she did.

"Lucky, just go. Please." Sam was almost in tears as he was here. She had missed him so much. She had changed in the last few months she had been with him but he didn't give a rat ass that she had changed when she had begged him to come to her. He didn't even believe her when she got a text message from the text message killer.

"I'm sorry about everything, really and I want to believe some part of you is, too. Maybe you have changed, it's just going to take some time for me to see it," Lucky explained as he started to go to the door. He could see he was upsetting her and didn't feel like causing her any more pain.

Sam turned her back to him and curled on the couch. He had hurt her so much and Liz kept on harassing her, telling her that she didn't deserve a man such as Lucky. As she took a deep breath, she felt his eyes on her, but she stayed quiet. "I don't like what I did but it's in the past, Lucky. I can never forgive myself for what I did. I only get reminded by Liz."

Taking a deep breath, he quickly let it out. He could sense the sincerity in her words. "I know, she's never liked you and I understand why. I still wish we could have had a shot at being together, but you did what you did and I don't know if I can ever forgive you."

"I know that Lucky," Sam said, pulling her knees to her chest, and pulling a throw around her shoulders, not looking at him. "I do wish we could have had a chance together but it's the past. I hope you can find someone worthwhile."

He really had thought about moving on with someone else, but he just couldn't. There was too much that had happened to him in the past couple years for him to even think about it. "I don't know if I ever will, but I don't regret the times I spent with you because I got to see the good side to you. I just wish you had been honest with me from the start."

"Lucky, I really don't think you would give me a chance if you would have known about what I have done. I am a horrible person," Sam sighed, letting the tears begin to fall. "I also never ever intended on falling for a man like you, either."

Lucky started to take a few steps back towards her. "I didn't intend on falling for you either but I did and we had a good time despite all the lying."

Sam sighed, wiping away the tears from her face. "I don't and never did deserve your love, Lucky. You're an amazing man. Even though I don't like Liz, she was good to you," Sam said with a sigh, rubbing her temples lightly. "You only deserve the best."

Lucky tentatively took a seat beside her again. She looked so sad and he couldn't help but feel a little bad for her. She looked remorseful. "Thank you for saying that. I hope you do what's best for you, too. I want you to be a better person, Sam. You shouldn't have to hurt the people around you to make you happy."

"I... I'm not like that anymore," Sam admitted with a sigh, looking out the window to the right, and she took a deep breath. "I haven't been the cold-hearted bitch like Liz thinks I am. Believe it or not, I actually care about Jacob Martin."

Lucky looked in her eyes and didn't think she was lying. "I know, but Liz doesn't trust you with him or Cameron. That's just the way it is and I can't say I blame her after what you did. I can't believe you've just changed after hearing what you did, it's too hard right now."

Sam just nodded her head as she looked away from him. She had really fucked up big time and there was no way she could get Lucky back. Well, I, um, I guess that's all there is to be said, Lucky," Sam said, rubbing her sore leg, grabbing her cup of cocoa, taking a sip of it.

"I guess so. I'm glad you're healing," Lucky said, not sure what else to do. A part of him still wanted to be with her but he just needed more time. He started to leave again.

Sam looked at him and she licked across her bottom lip. "I'm leaving Port Charles," Sam said, looking down at her feet. There was just no way she could live in a town where half of Port Charles hated her.

Lucky turned around again. "What? Why? There's still people here who love you and need you like Alexis and your sisters," he said. He sort of understood why she wanted to leave but there would people she would still be leaving behind.

Sam sighed as she looked at him. "Well, besides getting away from Jason and Liz would be the best choice for me, I think that I just need to leave," Sam told him, looking down at the ground. "I want to do some good in my life, anyways, and living here in Port Charles would be only harder."

"When have you ever run away from a challenge? I thought you were a strong woman, Sam, who could take on the world if she had to," Lucky told her. He admitted to himself he was a little disappointed that she wanted to leave Port Charles.

"There's just--- nothing here for me," Sam said, standing up to her feet, but fell back against the couch when she lost her balance from her leg. "Lucky, you just don't understand. What I feel for you is something I... never ever expected to feel. Truth is, I can't turn my feelings off for you."
