Chapter 4

Sam was lying on her bed, looking through the pictures on her phone. She stopped at one of her and Carly, smiling and having fun. She sighed, I really miss Carly, our friendship is really over because of a guy? I miss iCarly and Spencer, I just…I don't know. Sam shook her head; attempting to stop her mind from wandering to the friends she missed so much. She dialed Carly's number, debating on whether or not she should fix this. She decided against it, throwing her phone off to the side. Jonah was back in her life but she didn't know if he was worth messing up her relationship with Carly. She had to stop thinking about her, she's finally back with Jonah, and she wasn't about to screw it up. Sam heard banging, this only meant one thing, her mom was home. Her mother never liked to come into Sam's room so whenever she wanted Sam to do something she would just hit the wall a few times. Sam yelled from her room, "Yeah, Mom?!?!"

"Get you're a** over here, Samantha!"

"Oh my god, I'm comin'!! She forced herself to get up and go to her mom's room. Her mother's room was on the other side of the apartment, it was rather small but Sam hated doing anything that involved moving if it wasn't for food so it seemed like a long walk. She stopped at the door and knocked impatiently. "Come in, Sam." Mrs. Puckett said. Sam sighed, opened the door and sat at the edge of the bed. "What, Mom?

"You're not going to Jonah's tonight."

"What? Why not?! You knew we were going to the movies, I told you about these plans weeks ago!"

"Oh, well. You know, sometimes things happen that you are not prepared for, like when I found out I was pregnant."

"Pregnant with me or the one you murdered?" Sam mumbled, she knew that her mother didn't like talking about her earlier abortion before Sam. Mrs. Puckett heard the remark and was beyond furious. "GET OUT; GET THE F*** OUT RIGHT NOW!!" She screamed, tears welling in her eyes. Sam knew she had gone too far this time but she didn't care, she wanted to see Jonah. She wasn't gonna let her mom's orders stop her from seeing him; she decided to sneak out of the house. She went to her room, grabbed her cell phone, and hit speed dial number six. "Hey Jonah, change of plans, just meet me outside my window. See you then, babe." A few minutes later, Sam heard tapping on her window; it was Jonah throwing pebbles, letting her know he was there. She smiled, getting such a rush from sneaking out. She did stuff like this all the time but the excitement never seemed to wear off. She climbed out the window and she could see that his arms were out, prepared to catch her. She jumped into his arms. "Hey, babe." she smiled and kissed him while he still carried her. He continued carrying her until he reached his car and put her down gently. She opened the door and slid in the passenger seat as he sat in the driver seat. He turned to her, "So, where to?"

"To the movies."

Jonah slipped his hand into hers, turned on the car, and headed down the busy streets of Seattle.

Sam was still laughing after the movie ended and as they walked to the car hand in hand, "The movie was hilarious!" She opened the car door and slid into the passenger seat. "C'mon, let's go somewhere else." But it looked like Jonah had something else in mind; he hadn't even turned on the car yet. "What's the rush, Babe?"

"There's no rush, what'd you have in mind?

"A little bit of this." He leaned in and kissed her, sticking his tongue down her throat. He then pushed her down and climbed on top of her. Sam kissed back and wrapped her arms around Jonah's neck, enjoying the feeling of his lips on hers. He moved his hands down her sides, attempting to pull off her shirt but she pushed him away. "No, don't pull away from me; you know you want this too." He moved his lips to her neck, kissing her neck slowly. "Jonah, get off." She warned. He ignored her, held her down and somehow managed to take off her shirt with one hand. Sam tried to get him off but he was too strong. "Jonah, I said no!" He smiled; he seemed to be enjoying the sound of fear in her voice. He continued kissing her and unzipped her jeans. She tried getting free but he slapped her across the face hard. Tears were seeping out of her eyes as she pleaded for him to stop, "No! Please Stop! Don't…."

Sam tried falling asleep again but like all the other nights for past two weeks, the images of Jonah raping and beating her replayed in her mind whenever she closed her eyes. Her body was covered in bruises; it hadn't been hard to cover it from her mom since she was never home. Now, school was a completely different story, teachers were constantly asking questions. She finally told them she was in a car accident and all it left her with was a few bruises, they seemed to buy it. Ever since that night, Sam had been avoiding Jonah, for the first time, she was actually scared. Before, anytime she would get like this, she would go to Carly but she couldn't, not this time. It would just prove that Carly had been right all along and she wouldn't admit that. Sam's phone started ringing and interrupted her restless sleep, she checked her phone, and Jonah's name appeared. "Hey." She answered.

"Hey, I've haven't seen you around school lately." He acted like he didn't do anything wrong. She sighed, "I know but I've been going."

"Are you mad about the other night? I only did that because I love you."

"I love you, too."

"So, come to the Groovy Smoothie and forgive me?"

"I forgive you, Babe. I'll be at the Groovy Smoothie, I love you, bye"

"See you then, I love you too. Bye." Sam thought to herself, Jonah loves me, I know he does. I finally have him back; I'm not screwing this up….
