Chapter Seven: Notes and Comfort

Sam's POV

Everything around me felt so vile, everything around me felt like a murder game in some anonymous field as my heart pounded against my heart. My vision felt blurry as I ran, faster than the wind. Okay, that was just my 'supermantic' way of describing my risky trip to Quinn's room right before dinner last night. While Kitty went to redo her makeup, I honestly didn't know what I was doing but I knew I had to tell Quinn how I really felt. Why I couldn't tell her that I loved her. So without really thinking I scribbled a note and took a deep breath in and slipped it into her bottom drawer and silently made my way back just in time to meet Kitty. I knew this was wrong but I can't stand to break another heart after seeing Quinn so broken. I used to be the 'school player' but Quinn had some effect on me. Something that tells me I need to be a better person, go back to that innocent Sam I was before I moved here.

"Sammy do I look okay?" She smiled and spun showing off her proud cheerios uniform.

"Yea babe you look fabulous." I smiled and pecked her on her check, earning a giggle from her.

As we walked in the dinning room, every one froze. The worst bit was how Quinn and Brittany would exchange sympathetic glances at each other. Then, when Quinn wasn't looking Brittany would wink at me signaling that I was doing the right thing. Without a better thing to do I walked towards my mom telling her I was going to take her home. Unfortunately though mom invited her for dinner.

Dinner went smoother than I expected until mom asked me to introduce Kitty. Feeling pretty much like an idiot I shyly introduced her.

"She's Kitty. She's a cheerleader and she's well...sorta..my girlfriend." My words felt wrong coming out of my mouth. I could see it in Quinn's face, pain flashed across her face.

"Oh...she's your girlfriend?" Mom sounded surprised but she was wearing a proud smile on her face.

"Yes I'm his girlfriend." Kitty replied with her head held high.

It was that moment when everything came crashing down. Quinn excused her self and ran out of the room, making me feel so guilty. Maybe, this isn't the way to fix things. Maybe being with Kitty isn't the solution I thought it would work. Maybe I shouldn't listen to Brittany's orders.

So I told Kitty to wait there and made my way into the kitchen. From the doorway, what I saw shattered my heart, it broke me. Quinn sniffing away tears, that I created. Quinn trying to be strong even though I hurt her. I didn't really notice till now but she loved me. That kiss wasn't just a kiss in detention. It meant a lot to her just as much as it did to me. Without being able to control myself I flung myself at her. Wrapped my arms around her waist. Holding her, trying to fix something I broke so much, it was beyond repair.

"I'm so sorry honey." With that I turned to walk out of the kitchen holding back my own tears.

"Wait Sam. Sorry for being a jerk or sorry for that kiss in detention?" She questioned through tears. She thought I was sorry for ever kissing her?

"I'm so sorry for everything I can't tell you how I feel, right now. Just check your bottom drawer before you go to bed." I smiled a sympathetic smile and kissed her on the cheek and walked out and made my way into the hallways.

"What were you doing talking with her?" From the corner Kitty walked in with one of her eyebrows rised in a bitchy manner.

"Nothing." I flung my shoulders over hers and walked to the car.

Quinn's POV

After Sam walked off with Kitty I ran directly into my bedroom. Without a second thought I dug my hands down my bottom drawer sending my clothes flying in ever direction. There I found it, a little piece of crumbled paper. It was looking at me, ready for me to tear it apart. Slowly clinging on to the edge of the paper I opened it. What I saw was not what I expected at all. I was expecting an apology letter, a cute little goodnight note..well anything except for this. On the note in Sam's messy handwriting there was one letter. "E" Confused, I scrunched up my face.

"What the hell is E?" I whispered just enough for me to hear. Down stairs I heard the front door slam shut. SAM. He's back. 'Should I ask him or would that make me sound desperate? Oh well he already knows my stupid crush on him anyways.' Tripping over numerous clothing I made my way through to the corridor and then down the stairs into the kitchen.

"SAM! SAM!" I yelled as I barged into the kitchen. Sam, Sam's mother and Brittany were gathered around the table cleaning up after dinner. Every one except for Sam was shooting me weird looks and all I could do was fumble around in embarrassment.

"Ummm, can you help me get something from my room? It's errr. every errr heavy." I tried to speak with confidence but ended up stumbling.

"Sure." He shrugged like it's no big deal but his eyes were sparking.

Awkwardly I walked to my room with Sam casually following me. When we reached my room, I cursed in my head. I totally forgot to put my clothes back in the drawer. As if reading my mind he smirked and shook his head.

"So what do you need help with Q?" He walked towards me in a seductive way.

"You know exactly what I want help with." I raised my eyebrows in an non-approving manner.

"I'm sorry Quinny I really don't." When I thought he was going to touch me, he just walked right pass me onto my bed. "Hmm, I remember how I fell asleep here."

"Sam what the hell is E?" My words were stiff but I couldn't help but have a smile plastered on my face, at that memory when we fell asleep.

"I won't let you kill the fun." He smiled as he laid across on the bed.

"Sam. Get off my bed." I demanded when I saw him tuck himself in.

Instead of getting off my bed, Sam mentioned me to come sit next to him. Slowly and curiously I walked to the foot of the bed when he started laughing. "Come on I don't bite."

When I did lay myself down next to him, he threw the blanket around us. It was starting to feel like home again, it was actually really comforting.

"Quinn, trust me. You'll know in a while." He said as he playfully rubbed his hands on mine.

"I don't think I can do anymore waiting, Sam." I sighed when I felt him grab my hand.

"I promise only for a little while okay? I want this to be something special." He whispered when he kissed my head softly. Without anymore thought, I fell asleep safe and sound in his arms.

When I woke up the next morning, I almost screamed when I felt something lay next to me. Slowly as my dazed eyes took in Sam's sculpted image I sighed, love struck. Last night he must've fallen asleep as well. I smiled when I saw Sam whimper in his sleep. It was innocent Sam. It was the side of him I really fell in love with. I decided it was best for me to leave him asleep for a little more. So I quickly got out, only to be pulled back in bed again as a warm hand griped my waist.

"Quinny don't go." He moaned sleeply with his eyes closed. "I need you."

"Sam, I'll be right back okay?" I smiled as I kissed his hands softly. He plastered a goofy smile on his face and just nodded. "God can he get any more adorable?"

As I walked to my bottom drawer to get my jeans I froze. There was another piece of paper. This time it was one big one and two small ones. I picked up the bigger note first. Again with his messy hand writing it said "Quinn because you wanted me to shorten the time here's two notes." Smiling like an idiot I tore the other two down. "I" and "N"
