I don't own Sam or David nor do I own All American Girl.


Sam sat down on the chair heavily.

"Rough day?"
She looked up at her boyfriend who had just asked the question.

"You can say that again," she said

He put an arm around her and then asked what happened.

"Top three reasons why my day sucks," Samantha began, 3) I'm being put in the middle of my two best friends"
"Sounds rough"
"It is. See Catherine is against PHAW-"

"That's reasonable," David interrupted

"You would think so," Sam replied, "but now she has this whole fair dedicated to stopping PHAW. Well Annie is actually for PHAW. She says it would be better to keep people from not doing and I quote 'dumb shit'."

David laughed

"I heard that argument before," he said, "never so succinctly though"

"Well mean while it's left up to me to decide if it goes or if it stays"

"That does sound rough"

"Yeah you think,"
"Sam," David asked, "what does your heart tell you"

"My heart tells me that I love you," Samantha said, "that's about all"
He smiled and kissed her but he then got series.

"You know what you have to do"

"I don't know the answer"

"Listen to your heart," he said, "it will come to you"

"Thanks," she said, "reason 2) my mother is having another baby"

"What? Sam that's great"

"No it's not," Sam said, "it's horrible. She's a high risk pregnancy"

"Oh Sam"

"What if she dies?"

David shook his head.

"That's not going to happen," he told her

"But it could"
"It's not going to happen"

"David how do you know that?"
"Because," David said, "when my mom had my sister she was a high risk pregnancy-"

"You have a sister?"

"Older"

"Well where is she?"

"She's in collage," David said, "graduating next year"

"That brings me to reason number 1 why my life sucks. You'll be going away to collage soon and I'll never see you again"

"Thanks for playing but you're wrong again," David said, "I'm not going away to collage. I decided to go to collage here"
"What?"

"A community collage," David explained, "after the other day… when I stood up for you… I realized I love you too much to leave. You are what makes me complete. I'm not about to let our relationship disappear"

"And the number 1 reason why my day is great," Samantha told him, "you"
