I was at lunch at lunch eating with Robin and Emily since Carly was 'sick' at home. We were talking about Patrick. "He called her mom, it was so cute"

Anna had invited Patrick over for dinner and Patrick had just said it out of the blue. Anna had taken it in stride and just looked up passing him the mash potatoes'. I could never have Jason over like that.

"How many times are you guys going to ooh and ahh over it?" Nikolas moaned, probably miffed since the attention wasn't on him.

"As many times as we like" Emily said, tossing a french fry at him.

"That's a federal crime in Carly land" I said.

Robin cracked up, "She's going to be mad that she missed all of this."

"I think she's going to be fine, she received a really big secret yesterday"

Robin was interested, she leaned in, "Sam have I told you how trust worthy I am?"

Emily stuck her tongue out at Robin, "I already know the secret, ha!"

I took a sip of lemonade and leaned into my chair, "Do you?"

"Yes"

I wasn't sure if Jason would tell her, it's not a secret but Jason wasn't the type to talk about his feeling two times in one day "Do you?"

Emily rolled her eyes, "Yeah, Jason told me when he got home. Oops"

Robin jumped in her seat, "So it's about Jason?"

"What's about Jason?" Patrick asked, breaking out of his conversation with Nik.

"Nothing eat your food" Robin told him.

"I will finish eating my hamburger but not because you told me too" Patrick pouted.

I was over whelmed with emotion, about how his family was going to feel about me to seeing Jason again. I still remembered the last time I swam with him. My hands tightened pulling on my robe tightening it, making Patrick (from Spongebob Squarepant's) look thinner than ever. Tracy answered the door with a permanent smirk on her face, "Hello...Sam"

I ignored her disdain for me and smiled cheerfully, "Hi Tracy" then I noticed her hair, "New haircut? gorgeous"

Tracy's eyes lit up but her face was stone, "Thanks, the girls are in the back"

"Okay, see you later!" I called behind my shoulder as I ran past her to the back.

The girls were already in the pool, the kept getting out to jump off the diving board over and over. Alice was sitting on the patio with Luke, Tracy was probably right behind me. My bathing suit was a white one piece, with the sides cut out, and it was kind of crossing the Victoria Secret line. I was grabbed from the behind by Jason, his mouth nuzzled my neck "I missed you"

The thought warmed me from the inside out, "It's only been three hours Jason"

"That long?" He nibbled on my neck making me feel as if I was being tickled.

Bam!

Sonny threw a beach ball at Jason's head. "Come on, let's finish this!" Sonny taunted.

Jason kissed my cheek before sprinting towards the pool and cannon balling in. I went over to the patio and grabbed a bottle of water and crapped the top. It was hot as hell outside.

"Your the girl who spent the night with the rest of Emily's friends, right?" Luke asked, bring a glass of what I am very sure of Brandy to his lips.

I nodded, "Yep"

"And your Jason's girlfriend?" Tracy pressed.

"Yep" I repeated, choking on the little bit of water I had in my mouth.

"Do you love him?" I've heard rumors about Tracy Quartermaine, that she was a ruthless, bitter bitch whose favorite hobby was to judge everyone else. However when she asked him if I loved Jason, I could tell that she really did care.

"Spanky!" Luke scolded, "Leave the girl alone, can't you tell she's scared as hell of you?"

I shook my head,"I'm not scared of her."

Luke laughed at that, while Tracy scowled at me "Just nervous I never had a serious boyfriend, so this is new to me you know being around the family. Trying to appear nice so I won't be judged wrongly" I added. Tracy knew that was pointed at her, and snorted.

"You won't be, at least not from me. Go swim" Luke reassured.

"Thanks Luke" I capped my water and ran towards the pool, jumping, tucking and submerging into the water in egg position. I tried to swim to the surface but someone grabbed my leg, I opened my eyes and saw Nikolas smirking. His grip was tight I couldn't surface at all, so I fought. He did or didn't care about the fear in my eyes. Let go you stupid pathetic idiot! Let go!

I swam towards him and tackled, or at least tried to. I grabbed his hair and push down as I swam up, he caught me by the waist though. What the hell was up with him?

I kicked my legs and finally I was let go, I burst through the water gasping desperately for air. My lungs ached, my brain cloudy. I grabbed the edge of the deck and pulled myself up. Instinctively I jerked when I felt someone pulling me up. Tracy.

"Samantha, are you okay?" She sounded sincerely concerned.

I didn't feel okay but I knew I would be so I nodded, "It was Nikolas, he kept pulling me down"

"What?-Dillon get him out of the "

When everyone knew I was going to be okay, the girls and I sat on the pool side. The Quartermaine's hadn't thought of a budget on the landscaping for their backyard. The ground deck was granite, with a large oval shaped pool on the left, the patio on the right with the BBQ grill, with a series of pool chairs surrounding the side of the pool. And so many other things, they left nothing out. Whoever their landscaper was needed to do some work on the world.

"I should kick his ass for holding you under water like that" Carly hissed, glowering at Nikolas from across the yard.

"Too late, Jason already gave him a black eye." Robin told me.

"Oh yeah!" Carly remembered, and exploded in hysterics "That was entertaining, and Dillon got it on video! That's going to blow up on YouTube"

"How? Dillon isn't going to post it" Emily said, sipping on her tropical punch from a green straw.

Carly batted her eyes at Emily. "Because I'm going to go to Dillon and tell him that he shouldn't have done a thing like that to Jason and I'll send it to my phone and delete it off his of course."

She leaned back into her seat, "It's so much fun being bad Em, you should try it"

Later on that night...

Tired from swimming, I drove home showered, and blew dried my hair. I dragged myself to my bed and fell fast asleep. I woke up to the sound of my mom going to her room. The clock on my end table told me it was only eleven thirty at night. She was probably only here for a power nap, before she left to go back to work. I got out of bed and went down stairs and made me dinner, I was on in mid bite when I noticed her office light still on. I abandoned my bowl of cereal (the only thing I can make efficiently) and crossed the hall to her office. It was always super cozy in here, I sat at her desk chair and twirled towards he computer. I pressed the button to turn on the monitor and found that the computer was still running. And she had a document still up. I would have closed the file until I saw a familiar name in bold at the top.

A squeal of fear fell from my lips, I glanced over my shoulder at the door. My ears mentally felt sensitive like it was trying to hear foot steps through the walls. As if she could have heard that tiny noise, she would surely come tumbling down the stairs if she heard my thoughts that were screaming that I needed to 'delete delete! delete everything you see!'' But I couldn't delete any of the files, I had to print, edit and make a call.
