Chapter 2 – Sam
"Is who gonna run this town tonight, is who gonna run this town tonight, we gonna run this town tonight" Aaron sang at the top of his voice as we walked down the beach. Well Jared, Dave and I walked, Aaron danced.
"Shut the hell up" Dave huffed, clearly annoyed by Aaron. They were both like a comedy act. Aaron, the idiot, and Dave, the guy that gets straight to the point.
"It's a sick tune dude" Aaron complained in a whiny tone.
"Yeah it is but when someone has been singing it two hours straight, it gets a little old" Dave mumbled back at him. Aaron just carried on singing.
I sighed as we all sat on the sand.
"Sam's over there" Dave pointed to an opening to the surrounding woods. We all turned to see Sam walking through the opening as he put his t-shirt on. "Wonder what he was doing in the woods, c'mon him of all people should know how dangerous it is in there"
We all watched as he carried on walking. When he reached the other side of the beach he turned and looked over at us. His gaze seemed to lock with mine and I felt a shiver go down my spine. It was like I couldn't look away, his black eyes were looking for something in me but I couldn't think what. His eyes moved from mine and fell on Jared. He seemed to examine Jared the same way he did me. Then he was gone.
I looked at Jared; he shrugged his shoulders and turned back to Aaron and Dave, who were unaware of what had just happened.
I looked over to the spot in which Sam had come out of the woods. What was he doing in there? Sam was a strange man anyway, so it wasn't that much of a shock that he was walking through bear infested woods by himself. He was 23 years old and hasn't done anything with his life, but yet all the elders of La Push respect him and praise him. To be honest it might just be because of how big he is. When I say big, I really do mean big. He's about 6'3 and has muscles in places I thought were never possible to have them. Any man in this town would be scared of him, and shamefully I am one of them.
I tuned back in to what my friends were saying. They were chatting about school and how much homework Mr. Cress at had given us. I didn't join in their conversation, my mind was on Sam. I felt like there was something right in front of my face that I am missing, something important.
"I better go, mum will kill me if I'm late for dinner again" Dave sighed and looked over at the sea.
"Yeah me too" Aaron told us and he stood up and smacked Dave on the head. "We'll see you at school tomorrow" he mumbled as they walked away, leaving just Jared and myself.
I picked up a rock and skipped it across the water.
"Don't you think that there's something about Sam that is a little weird?" I asked Jared as I picked up another rock. I waited for him to answer. It's probably just me that has noticed or just me looking for something that isn't there, a little thing called excitement.
"Yeah, he does seem silently tense all the time and did you see his eyes, god he needs sleep" Jared spoke. I nodded, happy that I'm not the only one that has noticed.
"I'm going as well man" Jared stood up. I nodded and mumbled a bye as he walked away and out of sight. I sat there on the beach by myself just thinking and letting the time pass me by.
"I come here to think as well" I heard a deep voice say next to me. It was a voice that was unfamiliar but by the deepness and loudness of the voice, I had a pretty good idea who it was. Without turning, I mumbled "Hi Sam"
"Hi Paul" My eyes found him. He was sat next to me looking out to sea. Up close he looked even more intimidating. "How are you Paul?" He asked me as if we were long lost friends that have finally gained contact after many years.
"Fine" I said suspiciously back to him. He nodded. This is probably the most uncomfortable moment of my life. Why the hell was Sam talking to me? I had never, in all my life, said so much as one word to him. "How are you Sam?" I asked to be polite.
"I'm good thank you for asking." We feel into a silence, an awkward one at that. I had to break it.
"How is Emily?" I asked. All of Sam's body tensed and I could see him shaking. His eyes were closed and his fists balled up.
"Emily is okay" His voice was worn out as if trying to keep himself in control was hard for him. After that I kept my eye on him and we remained in silence. I didn't want to open my mouth again and get him tensed up again. Something was telling me that it was a good idea.
I looked at the time on my phone. 8:00pm. "Listen, I've got to be going Sam" I said and stood up quickly, glad for the release of this terrible moment.
"I guess I'll see you around" He looked up at me and smiled. It was a friendly smile, a smile that friends give to each other. It wasn't a smile that Sam should have given me, doesn't he realize we don't know each other. All I did was nod and walk away.
I kicked pebbles as I walked along the sandy land and up on to the roads. I stopped when I saw a figure sat on the side of the street. I moved closer to see that the figure was Bella. She was looking at the floor as tears ran down her face. One word came into my mind, Matt. That is the only time Bella is upset, when Matt and her have an argument. She hasn't noticed me standing at the end of the road so I just stood and watched her. She is so beautiful with her long, curly, brown hair blowing around in the slight wind that was coming from the sea. Doesn't Matt realize how lucky he is to have Bella? Obviously he doesn't, otherwise they wouldn't be arguing every day. I should be happy that they argue, it means that they are getting closer and closer to splitting up, but how can I be happy when Bella is crying and upset?
Internally I was debating what to do. Do I walk straight past her and ignore her? Or do I ask her if she is okay? I should take my chance whilst there is no one else around. I should talk to her like Jared had told me just this morning. I walked closer, my insides tightening into knots. I could feel my legs turning to jelly as I was just steps away from her.
"Bella are you ok?" I asked as I sunk down to her level on the ground. She never even looked up at me. Her gaze was locked on the floor. She never answered either. At first I thought she hadn't heard me. I was about to speak again, when her voice flowed into my ears.
"I'm fine, just leave me alone. I just want to be by myself." She whispered, I could tell by her tone of voice that she didn't mean it in a nasty way, but the words she spoke dug into me like a knife. She wanted me to leave her alone. I can understand why she said that though, she is upset and doesn't want people to bother her.
"Okay, I'll leave" I stood up and started to walk away. Before I could take more than two steps I felt emotions shoot through me, each one was for Bella. I wanted to hold her and tell her that she is never alone; I just wanted her to know how much I care about her.
Without turning around to look at her, I spoke "You deserve so much better than him, Bella" I walked away and made my way home before she could respond.
Bella needs to understand that she and Matt are not meant to be. I'm not saying that she belongs with me, no; she just deserves someone better than Matt. If I'm that person she needs, than that's just a bonus.
