Heya guys, this is a rewritten version of the fic that I uploaded on Thurs. I wasn't happy with that chapter and I had a really good idea for an ending, which meant I would have to write in another character. Most of the stuff in this chapter is the same; I've just added a few bits in, taken a couple of characters out and put another pair in. It's a year ago today since I left and again, some of the events in this story reflect what happened on my last day. Apologies to all who did review the original chapter. Plz R&R guys luv ya lots Gemz xx
The Last Goodbye
Summary: It's Sam's last day at High School before the exams. Will it turn out to be a day of fun or will emotions get the better of her? SP pairing as usual but there may be others included later on.
Chapter 1- Morning assembly
16-year-old Samantha Nixon was sat in front of the mirror in her bedroom, curling her hair. She smiled at her reflection in the mirror as she finished. A knock on her bedroom door disturbed her, 'Phil's here,' Sam's mum, Suzanne, said as she entered.
Sam and Phil had been together for a year and a half now and they were happy. Phil's mum, Lynne, liked Sam and Suzanne and Gareth, Sam's dad, liked Phil so everyone was happy. 'Thanks mum, I'll be down in a minute,' Sam replied.
Suzanne closed the door and began to descend the staircase. Sam took one last look at herself in the mirror before she stood up to put her shoes on. She closed the door to her bedroom and began to descend the staircase. Sam could see Phil stood in the hallway, waiting for her. He turned around as he heard Sam coming down the stairs, 'hey babe,' he said and kissed Sam softly on the lips.
'Hi Phil,' Sam replied.
'You look nice,' Phil said.
Sam smiled. For a change, the school had decided to relax the rules concerning school uniform for the Yr11's. It was their day and the school had agreed to let the yr11's come in whatever they wanted. Sam was wearing denim miniskirt and a pink strappy top with a school shirt over the top and a pair of heels. She was intending to get her shirt signed by all of her friends and maybe some of her teachers too, 'thanks,' Sam finally said.
'Are you ready?' Phil asked.
She looked up at Phil and nodded, 'bye Mum! Bye Dad!' she called as she opened the door to her house.
'Bye Sam!' her mum, Suzanne, called from the kitchen
'Have a nice day sweetie!' her dad, Gareth said as he came down the stairs and kissed her daughter on the cheek.
'I'll try,' Sam said as she swung her bag over her shoulder and left the house, closing the door behind her and Phil.
Sam and Phil began to walk in the direction of the school and met Zain along the way. 'You alright Zain,' Phil said as he high-fived him with his free hand. His other hand was still entwined in Sam's.
'Yeah, I'm fine Phil, how are you Sam?' Zain asked, turning to Sam.
'I'm fine,' Sam replied.
Sam, Phil and Zain got closer to the school and she gazed up at Sun Hill High, it was her last day there today and she knew it was going to be a very emotional day. She sighed deeply; she was going to miss this place. Although she always complained about how much she wouldn't miss it when she left, those feelings changed when the day finally arrived.
Sam, Phil and Zain walked into the assembly hall and saw a small huddle stood around the tables at the front. Zain went on ahead and Sam and Phil followed soon after. Sam brushed past Stuart Turner as she and Phil went past, she looked at Stuart. He looked her up and down before winking at her. Sam pulled a face, why doesn't he get the message, Sam thought.
Sam and Stuart went out together for about 6months about two and a half years ago. Sam had ended it and Stuart didn't take it very well, he still loved Sam and he wanted her to listen to what he had to say.
Sam and Phil walked over to the huddle and one of the girls turned around, 'Hey Sam, Phil,' Kerry Young said.
Everyone else turned around at the mention of Sam and Phil. 'Hey Sam,' Jo said as she hugged her friend. 'How are you?'
'OK, I can't believe today's finally here,' Sam replied.
'I know hun but it's gonna be fun, have you heard what our tutors have got planned for today?'
Sam nodded, 'it should be fun,' she agreed.
A few minutes later, the teachers began to file into the hall and Sam, Phil, Jo, Kerry, Mickey, Mia, Smithy, Zain, Emma and Will filed into seats four rows from the front. Despite the fact that the school had relaxed their policy of uniform in favour of the year 11's, the tutors still insisted that the students sat in forms. This didn't make any difference to Sam, Phil and their mates as they were in the same form.
The hall went silent as their head of year, Mr Meadows, cleared his throat and began to speak, 'well this it I suppose, this it, this has been a remarkable year for everyone in this room and we hope that we'll be able to finish off your school careers in style today,' he said.
'Just for those of you who don't know,' Mr Meadows continued. 'These are the arrangements for today, because some people are going to be in an exam, you'll be required to go to your first two lessons…' almost everyone in the room let out a groan. 'After break, we will meet on the field so that we can start the Silly Sports tournament…'
'Oh shit,' Phil muttered.
'What?' Sam whispered.
'I'll tell you in lesson,' Phil replied.
'After that,' Mr Meadows continued. 'Weather permitting, the barbeque will be held on the school field at lunchtime and at 1:50 the final assembly will be held in there…' Mr Meadows gestured towards the other end of the hall. 'Has everyone got that?'
Everyone nodded. Mr Meadows seemed satisfied that everyone had understood, 'has anyone got any messages?' he asked.
'Yes I have,' Mr Manson, Phil and Sam's form tutor said.
'Yes go on Mr Manson,' Mr Meadows said.
'Can I have a word with Phil Hunter at the end of the assembly,' he said.
'Oh great,' Phil whispered.
'OK then, if that's everything, tutors,' Mr Meadows said as he turned to his colleagues. 'You can start dismissing your tutor groups.'
Miss Gold, Mr Heaton and Miss Wright stood up and began to dismiss their separate tutor groups. Mr Manson stood up and dismissed his tutor group soon after and nodded at Phil. Sam looked at Phil and whispered, 'I'll wait for you outside,' she said.
Phil nodded and kissed her softly on the cheek as he walked over to Mr Manson, 'I heard you talking during Mr Meadows' assembly,' Mr Manson said. 'It's your last day Phillip and yet you still can't seem to show any respect for your head of year.'
'But sir, as you said, it's our last day, surely you're not gonna put me in detention,' Phil said incredulously.
Mr Manson looked at him, 'no I'm not,' he finally said.
Phil breathed a sigh of relief, 'thanks sir,' he replied.
'Just stay out of trouble,' Mr Manson said as Phil began to follow the dispersing crowd out of the assembly hall.
Phil left the outside the assembly hall and found Sam stood outside, 'what did Manson want then?' Sam asked as Phil softly kissed her cheek.
'I'll tell you in lesson babe,' Phil replied as he wrapped an arm around Sam's waist.
Sam smiled up at him and they began to walk away, heading for the Science block.
