Here's a new chapter. Short update but at least its something. Thinking about doing something about the adoption next. Hope you like it.

"Hey."Sam said as Jack walked into the diner.

"Hey."

"So, your leaving today huh."

Jack looked down, "Yea, they should be here any minute."

Sam started to get tears in her eyes but she wasn't going to cry in front of Jack. "I'm happy for you Jack, I really am."

"Thanks Sam. And I'll come back during the summer and school breaks."

"A-Huh, I know."

"Its crazy you know. We both thought we wouldn't find anyone but now we both have parents."

"Yea. I'm happy for you Jack."

They sat there for a few minutes. Sam kept her eyes down trying not to let Jack see her upset. "Jack, hey." Two people said as they walked up to Sam and Jack in the diner.

"Hey, Sam this is Bill and Angie. Guys this is Sam."

They reached their hands out for Sam to shake and she did. "Sam its so nice to finally meet you, Jack talks about you all the time."

"Nice to meet you to." Sam said sitting back down. "Well Jack we should probably get going. We don't want to run into traffic on the way back."

"Alright, I'll meet you guys in the car." He said turning back towards Sam. "Bye Sam." Bill and Angie said walking out of the diner.

"So, I guess this is goodbye then."Sam said standing up and moving towards Jack. "Yea, I guess it is." Sam walked over and hugged Jack and after they pulled away he kissed her gently on the lips. Jack looked at Sam. "Bye." Jack told Sam. "Bye." She said back as he walked away. She walked out of the diner and watched as her best friend drove off.


Sam walked the streets of Tree Hill until she got to the river court where she sat at the all to familiar spot of her and Jack's. She sat there for awhile just watching the water move down the river. She didn't even realize someone sat down next to her.

"Sam." The person said trying to get Sam's attention

Sam snapped out of it and looked towards them. "Oh, hey hales."

"Brooke told me about Jack leaving. Are you ok?"

"Yea I'm fine. It just sucks you know."

"Yea, when Lucas left it was terrible. We have been friends since we were younger and it just sucks to have him leave. I lost my best friend."

"Yea, thats exactly how I feel but I think me and Jack had something more than just friendship. I know its stupid to think that but-"

Haley turned to face Sam. "Sam its not stupid. I could tell that you and Jack always had something more there than just being friends."

"Yea guess so. Well I should really get home. Thanks Haley."

"Any time kid. And talk to Brooke, she knows what its like to loose her best friend."Sam smiled and walked away.

She walked up the driveway and into the house. Brooke was sitting at the couch when she walked in. Sam took off her shoes and sat down next to Brooke.

"You ok?" Brooke asked after they sat there in silence.

"Yea." Sam paused. "Maybe just no."

She said looking up at Brooke with tears in her eyes. Brooke opened her eyes and Sam leaned in. Sam sat there crying softly into Brooke's chest whil Brooke rubbed soothing circles on her back. "Shh, its ok." Sam pulled away and looked into Brooke's arms.

"Is this how you felt when Peyton left?"

"Yea, it was. It was hard but it gets better. You'll be sad for now but then you'll remember all the good times you and Jack had and it will make you happy and remember he's not gone forever."

Sam nodded. "Thanks." Brooke knew Sam and Jack had always had something more than just friendship between them but she wasn't going to ask because it might make Sam more upset. "You ok now?"

"Yea, I'm ok."

"Good, because Haley just called and she was wondering if you could babysit Jamie tonight at 7." Brooke said.

" Way to change the subject." Sam laughed and Brooke hit her playfully on the arm. "Yea, I can do that. Some Jamie time will cheer me up." Sam said smiling. "Good. I'll drop you off in about an hour then." Brooke got up and walked to her room. Sam sat at the couch and pulled out a picture of her and Jack.

"I love you Jack." She said smiling then putting the picture back into her pocket and retreating to her bedroom.

Short chapter but I was in a rush to update because I am super busy the next few days and I wanted to update this story with something. Maybe another update tonght about Sam babysitting Jamie.
And possibly answers to the adoption question some of you have wanted to hear. Review!
