Chapter 12
Sam and Andy hit the water. When they hit the water their hands came apart. Sam came up and looked around he couldn't find Andy anywhere. He frantically looked he went back under the water.
He couldn't see her under the water he came back up and screamed her name. He went back under again when he came back up he could hear a giggle. He looked to where he heard the giggle it
was by the waterfall. He still couldn't see her but he could hear her laughing. Then he saw her standing on the other side letting the waterfall fall over her. He smiled at her she was happy he hasn't
heard her laugh like that all day.
"Andy?" He swam over to her. She looked his way with a smile that took his breath away. He smiled back at her as she went back into the water.
"Sorry. I didn't hear you at first. I know I should have said something or let you know that I was over here. It's just I was drawn to the waterfall." Sam just smiled at her rambling it was cute. But he noticed
she did that when she was nerves and when she thinks she is in trouble.
"Andy." She stop talking and looked up at him while they treaded water.
"Umm sorry." She looked down while he swam up to her.
"Andy, please look at me." She looked up and he was right in front of her.
"Sam. Really I am sorry." Sam shook his head at her.
"Stop saying sorry. It's fine that you did that. You don't have to be sorry for doing something that you wanted to do. I don't know why you do that, but what I do know is that you need to stop it." Andy
looked down when he said that.
"I am sorry." Sam rolled his eyes at her. He swam past her toward the waterfall until he could touch. He looked back at her and motion her to come to him. She swam toward him until she was
right in front of him. When she stood he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close. She wrapped her arms around his neck and looked into his eyes.
"Andy, you need to stop this. I am not scolding you at all. I have noticed that when you think someone is mad at you." He put his fingers under her chin so that she was looking at him. "You seam
to say sorry. Only saw sorry when you do something wrong. Not when you think someone is going to be mad at you. I don't know why or who made you think this but Andy it needs to stop." Andy
nodded her head at him. He saw that she had tears in her eyes. One slipped out of the corner of her right eye. He took his thumb and wiped it away.
"I know your right, It's just hard to do sometimes. I will try but do me one thing if I do it again some how let me know." Sam smiled at her and nodded his head.
"I can do that but I won't scolded you when you do it. I do promise to help you if you let me." Andy nodded her head and smiled at him. She didn't realize that he was walking them backwards toward
the waterfall. He walked them under it which made her laugh again. He started laughing with her. They just stood there enjoying standing under the waterfall. Andy caught Sam off guard and pushed
him into the lake. When Sam resurfaced he saw her doubled over laughing at him.
"Oh you think that's funny." Sam swam over tried to grab her while Andy tried to get away. He got her before she could and pulled her into the water with him. She came up and with a surprised look
on her face. They started a water fight dunking and splashing each other. Just laughing with each other and enjoying the time together.
They sat next to the waterfall after their water fight. Andy looked out toward the lake and sighed. Sam looked over at her with a worried look at her.
"Are you ok?" Andy looked over at him with a big smile.
"Yes Sam, I am great. You right this is what I needed." Sam smiled at her, he loved that smile.
"See I am good for something." Andy laughed and nodge him with her arm.
"Thanks Sam." Sam nodded his head
"No problem, Look Andy I know your having fun. It looks like it's getting late we should get going." Andy nodded her head. She looked around and couldn't figure out how they would get back.
"There is a hiding trail. That is actually how I found it." He stood up and held out his hand to her. She looked up and took it he lead her toward the trail he was talking about. He never let go
of her hand while they walked back toward his truck. It didn't take long to get back to his truck it was a nice walk. Andy was relaxed she had been all day. Her day turned around because
of Sam. When they got back to the truck Andy grabbed her sweater and put it on. Sam put a wife beater on. Andy thought to herself that she was right he filled it out better the Luke did.
"Umm can I give you the swim trunks back later?" Andy asked while getting into his truck.
"Yes, that's fine Andy." He started his truck.
"Ok thanks." Sam turned toward her before he put his truck in to reverse.
"Are you hungry? Do you still want to not be seen by anyone you know? If so I know a place that we can go." Andy smiled at him and nodded her head at him.
"Yeah that would be great."
~Mama's dinner~
Sam pulled into a parking spot in front of a dinner. He turned to her and smiled at her.
"This is where everyone from my school hangs out here." Andy looked through the window and saw some of her friends in there too she laughed.
"What's so funny?" Andy looked back at him and smiled.
"Umm it looks like me hiding won't happen here. Traci, Gail and Noelle are in there." Sam followed her gaze and saw them with Nick, Jerry and Frank. They were laughing looking like they
were having a good time.
"Well, Andy they are looking like they are having fun. Do you want to join them?" Andy smiled again and nodded her head at her. They got out of the truck and walked toward the entrance.
Traci looked up right when Andy and Sam walked in. Traci laughed a little she had a feeling that Andy would find Sam. She waved at her friend while they walked up to the counter to order
their food. When Sam and Andy were done ordering their food they walked toward their friends.
"Hey guys how did practice go?" Andy asked them while sitting down. Her friends looked at her and shrugged.
"It was fine Andy. Are you ok now?" Traci asked while looking back and forth between Andy and Sam.
"Yeah I am fine now. I just needed to get away for a bit that's all." Andy gave her a look saying that they will talk later. Traci was fine with that she would ask later. Traci was watching
them, Sam drapped his arm on her the back of her chair. Andy didn't move it or look uncomfortable. Traci wondered what they did since after school but she was going to ask her when she
could.
"So what are you three doing here?" Sam looked at the girls Andy's friends.
"Well Sam, we were all on dates." Gail stated to Sam. He chuckled at Gail she had fire in her. He hoped that Nick could handle her. Sam and Andy's food came to the table.
"So what did you guys do?" Andy asked before she started eating. Her friends started tell her about their dates. All the guys sat back and smiled while the girls talked about everything.
They didn't notice that a person started walking up to their table.
Monica watched Sam walk into the dinner with a girl she didn't know. They walked over to the table with his friends with girls that didn't go to their school. The girl with same seamed to
be their friend. She couldn't see why he didn't want to be with her. She watched Sam drapped his arm on the back of her chair. He seamed so relaxed with her. He was never that way
with her she hated that women now. She watched him for a bit longer and couldn't take it anymore. Monica stood up and started toward their table.
"Hi Sam." Sam looked up and saw Monica. He sighed god she wouldn't get the hint would she.
"Hi Monica." Sam looked over toward his friends who were trying to hide their smiles.
"So how have you been? I haven't seen you around lately." Sam sighed and looked up at her.
"Well, Monica I have been busy." Monica rolled her eyes. She looked at his friends who were on the forge of laughing. The girls just were looking at her.
"Oh well who are you friends?" Andy could tell Sam wasn't comfortable now.
"Hi I am Andy. This is Traci, Gail and Noelle." Andy stated while pointing to her friends. Monica glared at Andy.
"Oh hi. I've never seen you before. What school do you go to?" Gail dropped her fork when she asked.
"Well missy. Not that it's any of your business. We go to Westside High School." With a matter of fact tone. Monica was taking back by this. Gail didn't like this girl. From what she
could see, Sam and her had history. Sam was trying to be nice but that wasn't Gail's style.
"Well you didn't need to take that tone with me. Don't forget where you are missy." Monica shot back at her.
"Hey, now come on Monica. We are trying to have a nice time here. You're the one that came over and started asking questions. Like you had a right to know who they are with. Why don't
go back to your table and let us continue." Jerry stated at her. Monica glanced over to Sam expecting him to defend her.
"Monica, come on just go." She was taking back when Sam said that to her without looking up. She backed away when she turned away before the tears started to fall.
When Monica got back to her table her friends were there. She sat down and looked back over to Sam. He wasn't even looking over to her.
"Hey Monica, Aren't those the cheerleaders from Westside High?" Cassie asked. Monica's head snapped back over to her friend
"I don't know but they said they go to school there." Cassie looked really closely. When Andy looked at Sam she got a good look. She nodded her head.
"Yes they are that is the caption of the cheerleaders." She pointed at Andy.
"Oh really." Monica looked back over once again Sam was leaned back with his arm drapped over her chair.
"Yep and girlfriend of the Quarterback." Monica looked back at her friend like she had two heads.
"Oh really. But she is here with Sam are you sure?" Cassie laughed and nodded her head.
"Yep I am sure." Monica looked back and smiled
"Well, Well it looks like someone needs to let her boyfriend know what she is doing." Her friends shook their heads at Monica. They knew that she was planning something.
~Sam's truck~
They had said goodbye to their friends. Andy knew that she was going to have her hands full with her friends. He was driving her back to her car so she could go home. He hadn't had
this much fun in a while. He looked over at her she was smiling and looking out the window.
"So did you have fun?" Andy looked over to Sam and smiled.
"Yes Sam, I had a great time today. So I was wondering something?" Sam looked over at her.
"Ok what is it?" Andy let a breath out.
"Umm how many people know about that place?" Sam smiled over at her and smiled.
"Just Sara my sister. That way if she doesn't hear from me she comes and checks on me. Other than that no one knows. Why do you ask?" Andy was playing with her hands. He
reached over hand put her hands over hers. She looked up at him.
"I was wondering if that could be my spot to. You know just to get away also if you could be my person that I let know when I am there." Sam smiled at her. He liked that idea.
"Yeah that would be fine. I get it everyone needs a place. So yeah I'll share my place with you. Just promise me that you will let me know when you go there. That will be the only
way I will share my spot." Andy laughed at him.
"Yes I can do that." Sam shook her hands which were still in her hands. He squeezed her hands and let them go. He pulled into the parking stall next to her car. They both got
out of the truck. She walked up to him and gave him a hug. She pulled away and got into her car. They pulled away and drove away to their homes. They didn't see a car sitting
in the dark. They didn't see the person sitting there and watching them.
