Chapter 1

It's a Friday night and Sam is getting ready for her shopping trip, she's going with her best mates Charlie, Jane, Mini, and Jess. Every week they go to different places for their shopping trip it starts on Friday and ends on Sunday, Sam's the oldest so she drives them all round where ever they want. Today they are heading to Belfast, they haven't been there in a long, long time, it will be a big adventure as it has changed so much since they'd been there last. As Sam was about to park her car she heard a large bang, she thumbed her foot on the brake, got out of the car and ran towards the noise. Sam didn't know what she was going to expect, but she thought it was some kind of a car crash, but what she found was more serious than she realised. A young man was lying in the middle of an ally way blood flowing down the street, the man had been shot though his chest. At first she thought he was dead but as she walked to him she saw that he breathing, she called her friends over and got them to ring for an ambulance.

20 min later he was taking to theatre, Mini was so, so scared she wanted to go, but Sam wanted to stay to make sure he was ok. Charlie and Jess tried to cheer everyone up by saying "well what a brilliant shopping trip, hospital beds was just was I was looking for". They waited for hour after hour after hour, until the moment of truth came, a doctor came and told them "I'm afraid his lost a lot of blood and he needs a lot of bed rest but the operation went well and he says he'd like to see the person who found him". Sam didn't know if she wanted to see him but Jane told her "you'll regret it if you don't", the doctor directed Sam to his room, there he was sitting up waiting, he looked so weak and fragile, she was about to walk away when he shouted "so you're the one that saved me?" She turned back and replied "yeah, I guess I am" he asked her to come over to sit beside him, he told her his name was Matthew but that she can call him Matty. "So what's your name?" he asked "Sam, Sam Wonder". Sam told him her age, 18 years old, and he was the same age. They chatted for ages, they shared a moment together, they were the perfect match. Visitor time was over and he give her his number and he asked for her number, will she give it to him…

…YES!

One week past and Sam still didn't get in touch, Matthew was getting impatient so finally he called. Sam new it was Matthew so she answered it

"Hello, is that you Sam?"

"Yeah"

" I've been waiting for you to call me"

" Sorry, I never call blokes"

" Yeah, well I'm not just a bloke, am I?"

" Well your all the same, aren't you?!"

" No I'm different"

" How can I believe that? I didn't call you because I thought you were just messing around, to make fun of me, all guys do that".

" Well I wasn't trying to, I don't excitedly go round giving girls my number, not unless I really like them"

" So you like me?"

" Of course, your gorgeous, who wouldn't like you?"
"… I … I … I've got to go"

"Wait, meet me in Lisburn at O' Brian's, 3.oo pm. See you, bye"
