This is a re-write of the Story "Somewhere Safe, Somewhere like home" as it was written in 2010 and I decided one day to read my fan fictions and wondered why this story had any views. I will change it a tiny bit but the main plot will be the same, thanks for reading.
Abbie's POV
As the plane landed in Seattle airport, I felt a rush of emotions. It was going to be strange getting back into the small town atmosphere that New York defiantly did not have, the three years I had spent there living with my aunt had made me much different than how I was when I was a 15 year old raised by her brother and different families of the tribe after my brother, Sam and I's Father had walked out not even a year after the death of my mother.
This would be the first time I would have seen my brother, apart from through a computer screen for almost a year and a half because he got a job in our tribe that wouldn't allow him to leave and our aunt, Stephanie and Sam were no longer talking after she took me to live with her. But after my aunt found out what had happened, she sent me back to keep me safe.
As soon as Sam and I spotted each other we ran towards each other, not noticing anyone else around us "Sammy!" I yelled as he picked me up, spinning me round like when were kids, when he put me down I noticed how much he had changed. I don't know how anyone could have changed that much in such little time! He had always been tall, but now he was massive and he had bulked up too. "I've missed you so much Abbie!" he exclaimed, wrapping his arms around me- everything about Sam made me feel Safe and at home, like I no longer had anything to fear "I've missed you too, Sam" I said, tears flowing from my eyes. He broke away from the hug smiling and moving to the side, "Abbie, this is Emily- my girlfriend" A beautiful girl walked forward, smiling at me "It's lovely to meet you Abbie, Sam is always talking about you" she said, hugging me "Okay girls, we better get your bags because the pac- guys will be waiting for food soon!" I raised my eyebrow "The guys?" I asked, "Sam's friends, they normally come over for mealtimes" Emily replied, picking up one of my bags and leading me to the car.
The house was exactly like when I had left, the exterior was still red after the summer before I left when we spent the whole summer painting the house as a part of our fresh start. Even the porch swing was still hanging, and the table that Sam had made himself, I felt so much at home here but it was going to be so different from when she left.
A shirtless guy sat on the porch steps, but when he saw us he grinned so I assumed he was one of Sam's friends. When we parked, he jumped up and jogged towards us "Abbie this is Jared, Jared this is my sister Abbie" Sam said, Jared grinned and kissed my hand causing me to blush "Its nice to finally meet you after hearing all Sam's thoughts- Well erhm… conversations about you" Sam laughed, chucking Jared a bag "Come on Cassanova, take some of Abbie's bags upstairs" he replied. I followed them both into the house, the interior of the house hadn't changed that much- there was some new furniture and some of the pictures of Sam and I had been replaced with others of Sam and Emily and some other community members. But, I smiled as I reached the photo of Sam and I on the beach a few days before I had left, Sam returned from upstairs noticing me staring at the picture he smiled "We really should get a new photo of us together, that one is a bit old" I looked up at the picture fondly "I wish I had never had to leave you" he smiled sadly and kissed my forehead, then walked towards the kitchen leaving me to go upstairs and unpack.
When I got to my room it looked almost exactly the same as I had left it, there was a change in the bed and some of the dolls and soft toys had been removed and put into boxes in my wardrobe, but there was still pictures of celebrities I used to love plastered to the walls and a picture of me and some of my old friends. I decided to leave unpacking everything for tonight, opting for just taking out the essentials and taking a shower before dinner.
Just before 6 O'clock Sam called me down for dinner, when I sat down I realized there was an extra place set in front of me but Jared had gone home earlier "Who else is coming for Dinner?" I asked, "My friend Paul, he should be here soon" Sam answered, before I had time to reply the most stunning man that I had ever seen walked in, also not wearing a shirt- not that I minded, my heart began to beat faster with ever step he took towards me, "Hi my name is-" He stopped as our eyes met, and I had a weird feeling settle over me it was almost like I finally started fully living. Paul was still saying um, which made me suddenly giggle breaking us out of our trance "It's nice to meet you um" I laughed, Paul and Emily both joining in but for some reason Sam was not finding this funny and his face was like concrete. "Paul, Outside now" Sam sounded like he growled, Paul stood up and followed Sam outside, I turned to Emily confused "What's going on?" I asked "Oh, Sam just wanted to talk to Paul about something". I wasn't oblivious to the fact that something was going on, but I was all of a sudden concerned about these very sudden feelings I had towards Paul, A guy I had just met! I couldn't do this again, not after Jonathan.
A few minutes of internalising the situation I had found myself in, Sam and Paul walked back in my heart exhilarated as Paul glanced at me, flashing me a bright smile "My name is Paul" he said, sitting in the seat left for him opposite me, I laughed "I kind of guessed that". For the rest of the evening, Paul asked me about myself, barely allowing anyone else to speak but the jet lag was getting to me and all of a sudden I was closing my eyes and curling into his warm body next to me without my brain even thinking it through. I was dozing and could still hear murmurs from the conversation, "You know if you don't treat Abbie right, I will kill you" Sam threatened "I promise I will not do anything to hurt Abbie, anyway didn't you say that hurting your imprint feels about 20 times worse for you?" Paul asked, I was starting to fall completely asleep again until I felt a hand stroke my fringe out of place "Sam?" Paul murmured softly "Yeah?" "Why does Abbie have scaring on her forehead?"
There it is! The first revised chapter, hope you enjoy!
