Notes:

I promise that I don't say bad words, I would never, it's a horrible thing for me, but my fic has some, please don't find it offensive, it really just matches the characters, so please no grudges or offenses, I never said any bad word, but I respect people that do, again no grudges, it just really matches the character's personality

This is kinda and kinda not canon to the story, some things change, some don't

My main ships here are Josh and Sam, some really great Chris and Ashley, but I also have the other ones:)

All character's P.O.V's but mostly Sam, though, Everyone has their point of view! Don't worry!

Ending: Everyone Lives, +Josh

Sam's P.O.V.

Josh… he was the only person on my mind.

I've been isolated enough, pain through my skin, why do I miss his touch? The one who hurt me so bad…. He has been with me since we were kids. Why did he turn into a monster? He was my life, but now, I don't know, so, who am I, without him? I miss him so much, I'll do my best to find him…..

It has been days since the "incident", he is now gone from my life, the others say it's better this way, only Chris agrees with me that we should find him, but ever since that 'kiss', Ashley would not let him go, she thinks she's going to lose him, they think he deserves it… why?

I'm not going to lose him, I'm going back! With or without the support of the others. After the police interviews, they told the people about those wendigos, they would not allow anyone to come back. Even Bob and Melinda Washington think that I shouldn't come back there…. But I didn't listen, I wouldn't care. Knowing the threat I was going to face, those officers wouldn't let me go alone.

It was hard enough to persuade them into letting me go, persuading them not to go alone, was harder…for me. I didn't won, they brought with me about 20+ officers, all packed with guns, bullet proof armor, gasoline, flamethrowers, flashlights, ropes, and many more 'gadgets'…. Although they don't know what they're facing, I would of thought that they would be 'smart' enough to know what or what not to bring… really? Bulletproof armor? Not going to help.

We were ready to come back…

Few hours later…

We arrived that horrid place, I feel shivers through my back as I walk into the snowy grounds of Blackwood pines, I sigh, readying myself for whatever will happen. We came during the day, knowing that those wendigos hunt by night fall, I don't even know if there are still any. We walked along the path, this place brings back so much memories, even if it was just days ago…. I led the group, I hear the officers talking behind me, but during that time, it was all just mumbles. I was focusing on more important things like, will Josh be at his proper state? Will we find him? Will he have a normal life? Will he be alive when I see him?

We came rushing through the mines, although they already knew about the wendigos, I still gave them some tips that they must know, important ones… I walked carefully, but I don't want to waste my time, if I walk slow, anything can happen quickly. I don't hear any screeches, any reminder of those things

are not audible or visible to me…. The only things that bothered me was the awful smell of blood, gore, bodies lurking about, there are no hanging bodies, but the smell, the smell is what gets you. I personally don't need emancipation from any of these officers… I'm a grown teen, I even know more about this place than they do.

We went deeper and deeper through the mines, I just repeated the words in my head "Samantha, do this for Josh, he needs you, it's all fine, you've been here before, you know this place" but even as I repeat the words, it didn't stop my undesirable fear, being there is one thing, but the thought of going back is terrifying… My eyes widen as I see a half-open door, did he went here? I just need to find out for myself…. Yet again, of course, the wendigos could be the reason why it's ajared . The officers were ready, by just giving them one look, they understood what I meant.

I opened the door quietly, even if the door was heavy, I used all my strength with those guards helping me out, it didn't make any noise! I stepped in, revealing someone I thought I would never see again… Joshua Washington.

"Oh my God! Sh**, sh**, sh**…" I say as I see him on unconscious on the floor, bruised up and bleeding, like he's struggling to live…

I ran to him, afraid of letting him go….. again. I was afraid that the wendigos will come back and tear him apart like a little dog toy.

"Josh, thank God, oh my gosh, are you okay?" I whispered, not minding the officers who were with me. I see him move a muscle, he urges to sit up, he has broken bones, I can tell…. He is still wearing those overalls, but I didn't care about it, even his smell, or the way he looks. I can't believe we found him!Ithas been 9 days … I'm so relieved! The officers joined in and they took Josh out.

We escaped the mines before some wendigos would come after us, like I said, I'm not sure if there are still any, but I'm not going to risk it. We went out unscathed, all of us, even Josh, not counting his past injuries.

Few hours later, when we came back…

Josh was taken to the hospital to pay attention to his bruises and injuries. I was waiting outside, I was taking a seat, seriously though, I'm surprised we got him quite quick and we came out safely. I'm very happy though knowing that he didn't do something drastic, he might as well got those injuries when a Hannah dropped him, Mike said it was Hannah who took him, maybe that's why he didn't get killed, she recognized him…..

I was scrolling through my contacts, debating to whether I should already tell the others that he was fine, but I didn't need to choose, because the doctor came out, he was wearing that clichéd white coat and he was probably at his late 30's to early 40's…

"Are you Samantha?" the doctor asked quite confidently and amused, like he's thinking, this must be the lucky girl.

"Yup" I say playfully

"Okay, right, umm, Joshua is resting in the room, you could go see him. But about his injuries, he has bruises all over his body and he has a broken leg, probably because he dropped from a very high place, lucky it wasn't his spine though, that would be another story." he says as he chuckles a bit, but those last words weren't really…. Pleasant .

"So… thanks for letting me know, I'll just talk to him when he wakes up, he needs rest." I say, but I really do want to see him, I need to know by myself that he's doing well.

"You don't need to wait, just you know, stay inside the room and wait 'till he gets up, he really needs you company…. You two must be very close." he says with a wide grin on his face

"Wait, no… how do you know?" I say, confused and charmed at the same time

"Well, even if he's unconscious while we're observing him, he keeps on mumbling your name. Like you're the only thing in his mind" he says, that's why he was so confident and amuse a while ago… and wait… Josh, thinks about me? I think blushing….

"Ummm, thanks doctor….." I say, trying to hide the blush on my cheeks.

"Dr. Lopez…" he says in a professional tone.

I just smiled and he walked through the corridor disappearing to different hallways. I entered the comfortable and fancy big white room, I saw Josh laying on the bed, resting I sat down, watching him sleep, I look at his lips, then to the rest of his body slowly, observing the way he lies down on the very clichéd hospital bed… He starts to mumble my name, I was shocked, I know he doesn't know I'm here, his eyes are shut closed…

"Sammy… You didn't deserve any of it, Sam…" why does he say that, we betrayed him, I betrayed him.

The others would of think he betrayed us…. But we were the ones who made that prank on Hannah, and it caused both of them to die…. Well that's what we thought , Hannah became a monster because she ate Beth's corpse, why? She did starve, but that wasn't right! If she only knew the consequences, if that prank didn't happen, if she didn't ran out of the lodge…. A 'Butterfly Effect'!

I see him blink, he sees me now….

"Sammy, y-y-you're here!" he says in an ecstatic and nervous tone, I see him shaking…

"Woah…. You don't need to be that shaky" I say smiling at him

"You came for me, something we see in the movies, huh? You saved your friend and you guys would be the ones to pair up and-" he stopped himself, feeling annoyed at himself for not playing it 'cool' with me and using some cliché movie references… but I find it cute

"I'm sorry, that was embarrassing, I should probably sto-" He says, but I cut him off, it's cute when he's trying to find those right words.

"No, don't…. you're cute…." I say, not realizing the words that I said to him, I curse under my breath, Josh is giving me those smirks of his… those devious, amazing, roman-… Sh**, Sam, stop!

"No… what I meant to say that you're cu-… no.. umm-" I say, stupid Sam!

"Uh-huh" He says with the smirk even bigger now

"I need to go, Josh, Jess still wants me to help her do something" That was a lie, but I need to go before I make things more embarrassing for the two of us, and before my cheeks turn super red!

"Wait!" He grabs my hand, tightly, afraid to let go of me

"I mean, if you want, you can stay the night here or something?" Josh says, but I grin at him, I bite my bottom lip, and took all the courage in me and kiss him on the cheek…. Dammit, I can't do it 'there' yet! I exited the room but he calls my name..

"Sam, is that a no or yes?" He asks but I just look at him with a 'we'll see' face, that I think he understood.

Things never get old….

Chris's P.O.V.

God, the others wouldn't listen! I can't blame them but… Sam might get hurt, dammit… Ashley and I, I don't know, we're kinda official… I love her, so much… even from the start, it's true, Josh really brought us together… I couldn't have done it, without his help, please let him be fine…

Please…

"Huh? Sam? She's back… that quick?!" I wondered as I saw a text message at my phone

Sam: Christopher…

Me: Yo!

Sam: We found JOSH!

The text message filled me with joy, relief, and confusion, but I was scared to hear her say, he's dead or something….

Me: What? How? When? Is Cochise okay? Is he alive?

It was awhile before Sam would text back, I was getting nervous!

Sam: He's fine…umm… he's resting in a hospital… if you want, go visit him, he'll be out the day after tomorrow, I guess..

Relief flooded me… Thank God, he's okay!

Me: Sure… where is he stayin?

Sam: At Rombridge Center Hospital, maybe you heard of it, it's one of the best hospitals here,if not, I don't know.. ..Google it?

Me: Thanks, I'll tell the others!:)

Before I shut the phone… Sam gave another message, what else does she need to say?

Sam: Chris, I think it will be better if you know, you and I will be the only ones to know, I think the others won't appreciate it yet, even Ash, please… maybe after his release.. k?

I was shocked, not because she said that… it's because.. how the heck did she type that fast? Seriously?

Me: How did you type that fast?

Sam: Just don't tell them okay? Gosh..

Me: Well, fine, just tell me when we see each other how to type like sonic!

She didn't answer anymore… well… that counts as a yes in my book…

45 minutes later…

"Crap! It's 6:59 pm! I need to see Josh…. I totally forgot!" I think out loud as I woke up from the sofa… I blink a few times to try to adjust my vision, then I realize that I don't have my glasses… it's not even on my coffee table…

"Dammit, where is it?" I say, and I start blindly walking around my small apartment, we are still in college, we are actually at the start of college! I'm surprised they let us continue, after such traumatic events, all of us are taking meds and therapy and it's helping a lot! I hear a female voice in my apartment while I was supposedly walking to the kitchen.

"You look silly without your glasses.." she comments

"Huh?" I ask her

She hands me my glasses… I wear them and I see who was the girl….

Things never get old!

So, please comment/review on who you think the girl is! Every little review inspires me to make more… thanks for reading… I'll maybe do this once a week or I'll try daily… depends on which day… but I promise to update once a week, not 2 or 3 or 4, promise… love ya, have a wonderful day!
