--Nine--

--The Unexpected Visitor--

Everyone was hanging out in Samantha's room talking, when her phone rang. She saw it flashing "Lily." on the rolled her eyes and answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Sam... I was wondering if I could talk to you."

"About what?"

"Well... when are you planning on coming to visit?"

"Um... next Friday, I guess... why?"

"Because I was planning on doing a get together, that Saturday night."

"What for?"

"For you... you're my daughter and I want everyone to know it."

"Oh, now I'm your daughter?" Samantha rolled her eyes.

"Sam, I don't know how many times I can say that I am sorry... I was just trying to help Alan and Emma."

"Look, we'll talk about all that later, but I want to plan this out my way."

"Sure... anything you want."

"And I'll be bringing some friends with me."

"You can invite anyone you want."

"Okay, bye," then Samantha hung up her phone.

Reid scooted over to her and said "Are you okay?"

"Yeah. I am fine. My 'mother'." she used her quotation fingers. "Wants to throw a party next weekend to let everyone know I am her daughter."

"Oh... so you'll be gone for the weekend or are you coming back?"

"I'm coming back... and all of you are coming with me."

Kate snapped her head up and said "What? Where are we going?"

"To New York, when my mom throws me a party."

"Oh... when?" asked Sarah.

"Next weekend... so, we'll leave that Friday after school."

"I've never been to New York, this is going to be fun!" Kate yelled in excitement.

Samantha laughed and said "Yeah... it will be fun and interesting."

Later that night, all of them went to Nicky's to hang out and start over with Samantha. They were sitting at their table when Samantha's phone rang again. She pulled it out of her pocket and saw "Chuck" flashing on the screen. Samantha got up and walked outside to answer her phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey, Princess."

"What's up, Chuck?" she said looking up at the stars.

"Nothing... I just wanted to hear your voice. I miss you."

"I miss you too."

"So, am I going to see you this Friday?"

"Actually... I'll be there next Friday."

"Why, next Friday?"

"Because... I have lots of things to do here. Homework and junk."

"Oh really?"

"Yeah... you know Chuck, you can talk to me anytime you want or text me."

"You told me you were coming this Friday."

"Something came up."

"Can I come to you?"

"Chuck... I've been a little busy lately with school and afterschool things. This school isn't like the school I went to when I was living there. You have to actually do the work and show up." she lied because she's only been in school for one day so far.

"Okay... well, I guess I will talk to you later." she could sense the hurt in his voice.

"Chuck... please don't be mad at me."

"I'm not." he shook his head. "I see you when you get in next week. Bye, Samantha."

"Um... bye." then Chuck hung up on her. She felt so bad for lying to him and for not coming that Friday and not letting him come to her. Chuck didn't tell her that he loved her like he always does.

As she was walking back into Nicky's, someone grabbed her arm, spinning her around. "What do you want, Aaron?"

"I want to have some fun... with you."

"I am not in the mood and it is not happening."

"Yeah, we'll see." as he pulled her closer to him, she pushed him off of her. "Fiesty... I like it."

"Leave me alone!" she yelled, then as he was going to grab her again a fist came out of nowhere and knocked Aaron on the ground.

She looked over and saw Reid with a pissed off look on his face. He kicked Aaron in his ribs, then said "You stay the hell away from her or I will do worse." Reid put his arm around Samantha. "Come on." she nodded and walked with him into Nicky's. He lead Samantha to the dance floor to dance with her.

She looked at Reid and said "Thank you... for coming to my rescue."

"No problem... he just don't know when to leave anyone alone. He's done the same thing to Kate and Sarah."

"Oh... so it's the fresh meat."

Reid chuckled and said "Pretty much."

"Well... thank you." she rested her head in the crook of Reid's neck while they danced. They danced like that for two songs, then walked back over to the table, and sat down.

Caleb looked at Reid and said "What's gotten into you?"

"Abbott." Reid growled.

"What'd he do now?" asked Pogue.

"He was messing with Sam... so I punched him in the face and kicked him in the ribs."

"I bet he deserved it." Kate said taking a sip of her soda.

Reid nodded and said "He's never going to learn."

All of them stayed there till one am, then they went back to the dorms. Reid walked Samantha up to her room and he gave her a kiss on the cheek, then she went in her room and locked her door. When she turned on the light, she gasped.

"Oh my God! Chuck! What the hell are you doing here?"

He walked up to her and said "I had to see you."

"When and how did you get here? How did you know what room number I'm in."

"I had Marty bring me and I have my ways of getting into places I want to be."

"Oh... Marty is here?"

"Yeah... he's waiting outside for me."

"Oh... what are you doing here?"

He gave her a hug and said "I've missed you... so much."

"I missed you too."

They broke from the hug and sat down on her bed. Chuck grabbed Samantha's hand and said "So, is there anything new with you?"

She swallowed hard and said "Not really... I got some cool friends. They'll be coming with me when I go back home... next week."

"Okay... who are they?"

"There is... Kate, Pogue, Tyler, Reid, Caleb, and Sarah."

"Cool." Chuck kind of made faces when Samantha said the guys names. "So, how is everything with school."

"It's good... different, but good."

Chuck nodded, then said "Well... I just had to see you." he stood up, then brought Samantha to her feet. Their lips were inches apart. "Goodbye, Samantha."

"Bye, Chuck." then Chuck leaned in and kissed Samantha on her lips. They kissed for a good five minutes, then Chuck stopped and rested his head on her forehead.

"I'll see you next week." he whispered.

She nodded and said "Okay."

As soon as Chuck caught his breath, he walked over to the door, and said "Bye."

"Bye... tell Marty I said 'Hi' and I miss him."

"I will." he looked at her with a serious look on his face. "I love you, Sam."

"I love you too." then Chuck left her room and walked out of the building. He got into Samantha's limo and had Marty drive him back to New York.

Samantha got changed in her pajamas, then laid down on her bed. She couldn't believe Chuck showed up there and she can't believe he kissed her. A little while later, she fell asleep thinking about Chuck and Reid, those two were stuck in her mind.
