Mad For Love (An Ejami story)
CHAPTER I:
Sami was sitting in her jail. She was waiting for her trial for killing a cop who tried to murder her ex. She saw the knife in his hand. She was hundred percents sure of that. Her thoughts were wondered to the day she met EJ. It was 2006. He was standing there in his towel when she went to get her wrench because the shower had gone bed.
She still remembered how surprised she was when he opened the door half-naked. Tall, British guy. He nodded at her and she was standing there in shock. Sami's thoughts were cut when EJ entered the cell. He told he had something to tell her. She was hoping that they would find the knife she saw or perhaps there was a proof that the cop was a crooked one. EJ looked into her eyes and his eyes filled with sadness. He wanted to tell her that he found the knife or the proof but, he knew it was a lie. He could not lie to her anymore and he wanted to make sure she was safe. 'Samantha', he said in his British accent, 'no news'. Sami could feel like her eyes were filling with tears. She wanted to get out of there. She wanted to be with EJ and their kids, Allie and Will. She wanted to see her newly granddaughter. She wanted to cry, but she couldn't. EJ stood there speechless. They stood there when the cell bars were between them. Their eyes said everything. They were carving for each other touch. They wanted to be able to hug, and kiss with no interaction. Suddenly, EJ's cell rang.
'I have news for you', Justin said, 'We found the knife'. EJ looked at Sami and she looked back at him. You could hear Sami sighed with relieve. 'Tell me more', EJ said. 'Well, Kate had it', Justin whispered. EJ could feel how the anger filled his body. He looked at Sami. Her eyes were shining. She had hope. He whispered to her, 'The knife was found. Kate had it', and she looked shocked. 'Why?', EJ questioned. 'We are not sure yet, but we are questioning her right now. Come on up to find more', Justin said. 'Be right there', EJ replied. He turned off his cell and looked at Sami. 'Honey, you may be getting out', EJ assured Sami. Sami looked blissfully happy. She had found her hope, but at the same time she wanted to punch something. She wondered why would Kate do such a thing. Yes, she was her enemy but it was too big to do something like that. 'I have to go, but I will keep you updated. I will be back', EJ told assuring her that everything would be alright. He gave her a longing kiss and walked out. Sami went back to her thoughts. She tried not to let her anger to take over. She let her thoughts wondering back to the day EJ asked her to marry her. She knew she had a wedding to plan when she got out and she was hopful.
