Chapter 1:
Rafe had just left after a huge fight with Sami. Sami was sitting on the sofa in her living room trying to get herself together. She found herself thinking about what had happened earlier when EJ dropped by and kissed her instead of the fight which she just had with Rafe. She tried to make herself think of something else but she couldn't.
She remembered how it felt to be taken by EJ like that, by surprise. How it felt to be in his arms, so close to him while he was kissing her so passionately. How long it had been that she wanted to kiss him like that after that night they had had sex on the sofa at the Dimera Mansion, that night when they thought Johnny was dead. He had taken her by surprise back then and couldn't stop what was happening. Sami couldn't believe she was thinking about EJ in that way after everything they had put each other through. Sami thought back on what they had been through since they first met. She listed down all the horrible things they had done to each other starting from the night Johnny was conceived, their forced marriage to end the vendetta between the Brady's and the Dimera's, her keeping her pregnancy a secret from EJ, EJ kidnapping Sydney, Sami shooting EJ in the head and EJ taking the children away from her. She couldn't understand how things had gotten so messed up between them. She couldn't help herself thinking of the good times they had shared together. Back to their first meeting when accidentally EJ had dropped his towel showing off his assets, when they had danced tango on the pier how special he had made her feel, how she longed to feel like that again, she remembered when they had danced in that old cabin on her wedding day to Austin, the first time they made love, the night Sydney was conceived. A smile was on her face but soon she shook it off.
Sydney called out and Sami went over to her children. She had a nightmare and was scared. Sami set down beside her daughter looking at her lovingly, thinking about the night she was conceived. Johnny woke up when he heard his sister crying and went over to her and hugged her. Tears filled Sami's eyes at the sight in front of her. She was starting to realise that she was falling for EJ all over again and the kissed that they shared earlier was not helping her keeping those feelings locked up inside her. She caressed her children's face. Soon they fell asleep. She closed the door behind her and went into the bedroom. She was choosing a clean nightdress to wear after her shower when she heard a noise.
She looked behind her and took the shock of her life...
