Chapter 2: Telling the truth
A/N: I didn't mean to take so long!
Disclaimer: I don't own Glee, just the DVDs and CDs!
I own: The Marshall family, Sam's foster family.
Two weeks had passed since Jade had called her foster brother while he was at school on Saturday for a Glee club rehearsal. Sam had made up his mind on when he was going to tell his fellow Glee clubbers about being in foster care (Or rather forced to tell the others because Finn confronted him!) and Sam was beginning to get nervous.
"I saw you on Saturday after rehearsal and you called your mom and dad Alice and Tom!" said Finn as he shoved Sam lightly in the chest.
"That's because they're not my real parents!" said Sam as everyone else in the choir room stared at him.
"Wh-what do you mean, dude?" asked Finn as he stared at his best friend with wide eyes.
"Who was that girl on the phone, Sam?" asked Quinn as she looked at her boyfriend.
"That was Jade, one of my foster siblings" said Sam as Quinn stared at him in shock.
"That's not possible!" said Finn as he glared at Sam.
"I'm in foster care!" said Sam as Finn's mouth fell open.
"What?" asked Will as he stared at his student.
"My dad died when I was a kid and my mom became abusive, social services found out and placed me in a foster family but that didn't work out and I kept being moved home to home until I ended up with the Marshalls!" said Sam as Finn stared at him, a stunned look in his eyes.
"Sam, I don't know what to say..." said Finn as a stunned look formed in his eyes.
"Don't say anything" said Sam as he shot a weak smile in Finn's direction.
"Why didn't you tell us, dude?" asked Mike as he and Tina broke away from their kiss to look at Sam.
"I didn't want to be treated differently" said Sam as Rachel gave him a surprised look.
"We wouldn't treat you differently, Sam! Why would we?" said Rachel, shooting a surprised look in Sam's direction.
"You wouldn't understand, Rachel!" said Sam as Finn shot him a look of concern.
"Did you get bullied, dude?" asked Finn as he shot Sam a look of concern.
"During and after school" said Sam as Artie's eyes widened.
"Whoa! That must've been rough" said Artie as his eyes widened.
"It was, especially with the teasing about my Dyslexia" said Sam as he and Finn went back to their seats.
"How long have you been with this family?" asked Mike as he looked at Sam with curiosity in his eyes.
"Six months, I haven't settled in yet" said Sam as Quinn looked at him with wide eyes.
"Sam, you haven't told us anything about your last foster placement" said Rachel as Sam shuddered.
"It was horrible, my ex-foster dad always abused me in everyway possible for two years, my foster dad before him did worse. The two of them were even worse than my mom" said Sam as everyone gasped.
"Sam, that's really bad!" said Puck as he clenched his hands into fists.
"I'm used to it" said Sam as he shot a smile in Puck's direction.
"What about being adopted?" asked Rachel as she shot a curious look in Sam's direction.
"I'm still up for adoption" said Sam as Rachel looked at him in shock.
"Seriously?" asked Rachel, looking shocked.
"The problem with being adopted, Rachel, is that not many potential adoptive parents want a fithteen year old boy with a learning disability" said Sam as Artie's eyes widened in shock.
"Has your mom ever come to see you, Sam?" asked Rachel, changing the subject.
"No and I don't care" said Sam as Finn looked at him in shock.
"Why?" asked Finn as he looked at his best friend in shock.
"If she wanted to see me, she would've come by now and I doubt it because when I say yes to the visits, she never turns up" said Sam as he looked at Finn in the eyes.
"Outch!" said Finn, looking stunned.
"How hard is it to settle in, Sam?" asked Will as he looked at Sam.
"Quite hard, especially when you've had eight placements before this placement but Alice and Tom didn't even want me, I was just shoved their way because I'm good with little kids" said Sam as he looked at his teacher.
"How long have you been in foster care, Sam?" asked Finn, curiosity forming in his eyes.
"Ten years, I'll be sixteen in a few months" said Sam as Rachel beamed at him, her eyes glowing with excitement.
"We'll have to do something special!" said Rachel, beginning to get excited.
"No Rachel, I don't want a big party or anything" said Sam as his phone started ringing.
"Hi Sam!" said Scott, one of Sam's friends from Dalton Academy.
"Hey Scott!" said Sam, smiling to himself.
"How's the new foster family?" asked Scott, beginning to get interested in how his best friend was doing in his new foster placement.
"They're great, my foster parents are nice" said Sam as Finn shot a small smile in his direction.
"Good, I'd hate to see you back in the hospital" said Scott as he and Sam laughed together like old times. Sam and Scott went on talking for another twenty five minutes until Sam's phone battery was getting a bit low.
"I better go, Scott, my battery's low" said Sam as he and Scott said their goodbyes before hanging up and shoving his phone back into his pocket.
