Carpe Corpus- After Sam's dies Amelie's POV
I had known this would have happened...one day or the other Bishop would take away the the only man that I loved.
I gave a strangled cry as bishop yanked his head aside to expose his neck. Even from such a distance, I could see the pale veins on his neck. Bishop's fangs slid down, deathly sharp and he sank them into Sam's throat.
I watched in horror and shock as Bishop drank from him. There had always been a fair possibility that it would be Sam but now I regretted poisoning him. I would have chosen it to be me. How could i have been so selfish? I knew all along that one day because of my tenacity, I was going to loose him, that he was going to die because he knew nothing of my past. Nothing at all. That was why I had ignored him, refused to talk to him. Refused to acknowledge the that I loved him all along.
Angrily, I struggled, trying to get Pennywell of me , but his grip just tightened. Desperately, I shot Oliver a pleading look, hoping he would get the message and at least try to help Sam. He refused to move. He didn't even try, just stood there holding on to my chains.
Sam's body went slack as Bishop dropped him to the ground. I watched, breaking up inside. Its not real, I told myself. It was a horrible dream that I would awake from shortly. But that was the problem. It wasn't a dream, it had never been. From the moment Bishop had entered this town, Sam had been in danger.
And now Sam was dead. Taking his last breaths and it was my fault. Perhaps i shouldn't have poisoned him. We were running out of time and I was desperate. I came up with a plan as soon as i could. Originally, Sam wasn't supposed to be involved, but that had to change and it had.
If it weren't for me, he would have been alive.
If I had killed Bishop the first time, he would have been alive.
If I had excluded him, he would have been alive.
Right there at that moment, I realized something for the first time: Usually one thinks that someone that they love will last forever. When they realize that they are wrong, they're already too late, because he will be gone by then.
Gone Forever.
