SPOV

I ran to Jack, collapsing by his side. "Jack?" I shook him. When he didn't move I shook him harder. "Jack!" I screamed, tears beginning to roll.

"Sam." Miles was behind me, trying to pry me from Jack. "Sam, let him go."

"No." I screamed, pulling the limb body onto my lap. I held him to me, burying my face in his hair. "No. He can't be gone. It's not fair." a hand rested on my shoulder and I felt the familiar warmth spread through me. I looked up to see Jarrah.

Let him go. Jarrah's voice ran through my mind.

I shook my head, holding Jack tighter. "He can't be... No." I cried. I held him desperately, not letting anyone take him from my grasp.

It was Jack... he was Jack. My first love. My friend. My enemy. My shoulder to cry on. My punching bag. My advisor. My protector. My Jack. I had known him for years, he was the only constant in my life other then Miles.

Sure I hadn't seen or spoken to him in years, but that was because I still loved him and the distance hurt.

Jarrah may be my soul mate. But Jack was the first guy I loved. He was my first kiss. The first guy I held hands with in public. The first guy that leaned towards me, smiling at me, looking at me, when we were with others. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't know what love is.

"Listen." Jarrah knelt down beside me, his arm holding me close to him. "Feel him."

I stopped and let all my senses calm.

Thump, thump. Thump, thump.

"He's alive." Jarrah was the one to say it. "But he needs help." Let go.

I stopped crying and relaxed, letting Jack go. Thierry was there in an instant, helping him. I watched as he picked him up and walk out.

"Miles go with them." I said absent mindedly. "Blaise you too. Make sure he's okay." they left with no question. "Abby call his parents. Tell them... tell them there's been an accident. I don't know if he'll be okay. But don't worry them." she dialed the number and walked out of the room, no hesitation. "Hannah, Ash, Grandma Harman, go make sure all the guests are fine and no one suspects anything. Rashel, Quinn, help Jarrah clean up-"

Jarrah interrupted, his arm holding me so softly and delicately. You need to rest. Jarrah whispered in my mind gently. I'll handle everything. You need to sleep. You're still not healed. He looked down at my side. I couldn't even feel the pain. I felt numb. "Let someone take care of you."

I shook my head. "Worry about Jack. He needs-"

"He's been taken care of." Poppy walked over to us and Jarrah helped me stand. "I'll take care of her." she told him before he reluctantly passed me to her. She slipped an arm around my waist, holding me up. "She'll be fine." she said before we exited.

JPOV

I called out orders and there were no objections. We all knew we needed to clean up this mess.

There were only two dead. Both of them were hunters. I didn't know their names, but even though they had tried to kill us, I felt sympathy towards them.

"Staring makes it worse." James walked up to me.

"She nearly died. She could have been one of these bodies." I noted, speaking of Samantha.

"It could have been any of us. But we were lucky. Now come on, cousin. We need to get moving before someone walks in and discovers what we've been up to."

I sighed and nodded, lifting a red headed boy into my arms before following James to get rid of the bodies.

"How is he?" I asked as I watched Thierry and Blaise work on Jack.

Thierry bandaged up his broken rips, and made a splint for his broken leg. He cleaned and covered his many cuts, trying to stop infection and bleeding. Blaise stood by, her hand on his forehead and chest. She was apparently transferring energy to help him heal.

Thierry sighed and looked up. "I'm not a doctor-"

"I don't care if you're a doctor or a clown. Just tell me if he's going to live." I snapped. These two people were complete strangers, and the life of my best friend was in their hands.

"He should be fine." Blaise said, stepping away from him. "His breathing and heart beat are back to normal. I've healed the major life threatening wounds. But I can't do anymore. I've already used a lot of energy on Samantha."

She went to walk over to me, when she fell. I caught her in time pulling her up. "You need rest." Thierry's voice was full of concern and authority at the same time. "Take her to one of the bed rooms. You'll both stay here."

I lifted her into my arms, bridal style, before walking us out. "I saw Sam. She could have died if it wasn't for you." I noted.

Blaise closed her eyes, resting against me. "She's family. It's what you do for family." she shrugged.

"Jack's not your family." I pointed out as I reached a bedroom door. I led us in and closed the door with my foot before moving towards the bed. I placed her down and she rolled so she was facing me.

"He's your family, and you're my soulmate. So he's my family too I guess." she said, sounding so worn out.

"Soulmate?" I asked.

"Don't make a big deal about it." she grinned, eyes still closed. "Now will you come join me already. I don't think I can sleep without you."

I didn't argue. I walked over to the other side and moved onto the bed, she rolled over and pressed herself against me, cuddling up and getting comfortable.

"Is this real? Are you real?" I whispered, brushing her hair behind her ear.

She nodded. "And get use to it. I never want to be away from you again. We've been apart long enough." she said as we both fell asleep.

"I have to go see Jack. I have to make sure Jarrah knows what to do." I tired getting up, but Poppy just pushed me down. "You know it's really unfair that you can use your vampire strength, when I'm too weak to fight back." I snapped.

She shrugged, unfazed by my mood. "Then don't fight. Problem solved."

She had helped me out of the dress and into a tank top. Putting pants on was too hard, my legs were like jelly and all my body wanted to do is curl up. Poppy had cleaned the wound, telling me it would take a while for it to heal, before bandaging it up.

Now she was tucking me into bed like a child. I groaned as she pulled the blankets over me. "I'm not just going to lay here like a helpless baby."

"No you're not." she agreed. "You're going to lie here like the injured hunter-slash-witch, you are. And you're not going to argue or I'll tell Thierry."

"That's not fair." I exclaimed.

"Life's not fair." she said, ending all arguing.

I woke when I heard the bedroom door close. At first I panicked thinking it was Katie, coming to finish what she started. But when I saw Jarrah, relief flood through me. He sat in the chair by the bed, where Poppy had been sitting before.

"Jack's fine." he looked so blank, I couldn't read him. "He had a broken leg and two broken ribs, but Blaise gave him enough energy for his body to heal itself. He's still out, but he should wake up soon."

"Jarrah?" I went to reach for his hand, when a sharp stabbing pain went through me. I flinched, hissing in pain.

Jarrah was up right away. "I thought Poppy said it was healing?" he looked so worried.

I shrugged. "It is. But Blaise wasn't able to give me enough energy to heal fast enough. I'll be in pain for awhile." I shrugged and grabbed his hand. I looked up at him but he looked away. "What have I done?" I ask, letting his hand go.

"I know it must be hard for you. To love me." he sighed. "I'm sorry I can't be more like him."

"More like who?" I asked, completely taken by surprise.

"Jack. I saw how you mourned him before you knew if he was actually dead. The way you held on to him refusing to let anyone separate you two. You didn't even let me-"

Jarrah. You are my soulmate. You're perfect. But Jack was my first love. He's a part of me whether I like it or not. But I don't want you to be more like him. I want you. I love you.

His eyes found mine. "I love you too. I don't know what I would have done if you had died tonight" he admitted.

"It doesn't matter anymore. I grabbed his hand and pulled him closer. He understood and took his shoes and suit jacket off before sliding into bed with me. "Just hold me, okay?"

Forever. He whispered, placing a kiss on my forehead.

The End... for now.

There will be a second part to this story and possibly a prequel involving a certain L.J. Smith soulmate couple, and Blaise and Miles. But I'm not a hundred percent sure how I'll be doing it yet. Either way, keep an eye out for the next installment of the Sarrah (Samantha and Jarrah) story :P

I hope you enjoyed, don't forget to review :):)

Love and miss you all xox
