Chapter 2
Mary, Nessa and Delinda came up to Mike and Danny to see what all the commotion was about.
"Hey, what's going on?" Mary asked watching Jessie and Sam hugging.
"And who is that?" Nessa said watching the handsome man put Sam down gently.
"That's what I'd like to know." Danny spoke walking towards Sam and Jessie.
"I hope that's her brother cause he sure is fine." Delinda chuckled to Mary and Nessa as they made their way toward the others.
The crowd finally subsided as Sam was starting intently into Jesse's eyes. She couldn't believe he was there right before her starting back. Sam blocked out everything around them; her friends, the people, the casino noise, it was just her and him. Sam gently touched his cheek just to make sure that she wasn't dreaming.
"Im really here, Sammie." Jessie whispered knowing exactly what she was thinking.
"Oh my god, I cant believe it" She once again hugged him and felt tears sting her eyes.
Their moment was ruined when Danny interrupted them "Hey Sam, would you like to introduce us."
Sam pulled away from Jessie and suddenly noticed all of her friends surrounding them. She wiped a stray tear off of her cheek "Of course, uh, Jessie these are my friends, Danny Mccoy and Mike Cannon they work in security surveillance."
Danny and Mike each shook Jesse's hands and Danny, again, felt that weird vibe he felt earlier "Nice to meet you"
Sam continued the introduction "This is Mary Connell, she's our special events coordinator, Delinda Deline runs the nightclub here at the Montecito, and lastly Nessa Holt, she's one of the pit bosses."
Jessie shook each of the girls hands "Pleasure to meet you"
"Likewise" Delinda smiled flirtatiously.
Sam gave Delinda the evil eye "And everyone, this is Jessie Walker, he was my best friend in High School"
"Just best friend?" Delinda asked, but was nudged by Mary before Sam could hear.
Danny was disappointed because he had hoped he was her brother, cousin, or some type of relative and now was very jealous. "So how long has it been since you last seen each other?"
"Wow" Sam smiled looking up at Jessie "It been what? eleven, twelve years?"
"Yep, and I've missed you!" Jessie yelled picking her up and swinging her around again.
"I've missed you too" Sam sighed once he put her back down.
Sam suddenly got this far away look in her eyes and Jessie became worried "Honey what's wrong? Aren't you glad Im here?"
"Of course I am, it's just... Jessie, what are you doing here?, How did you find me?, Why didn't you look for me earlier? God, I have so many questions for you." she sighed as a rush of bad memories from her childhood flooded her.
Jessie became a little embarrassed seeing that she was speaking in front of her friends and not knowing if he should talk in front of them. "I know that you do and I will answer every one, but maybe we should go somewhere more private."
Sam blushed slightly as she noticed all of her friends, especially Danny listening to their conversation "Uh of course, so where are you staying?"
"Not sure yet"
"You can stay with me" Sam jumped "I have a huge suite upstairs with more than enough room for both of us"
"You live in a hotel room?"
Sam chuckled nervously "We'll talk later."
Danny listened to their conversation with curiosity. He could tell by their body language that they weren't just 'best friends' back in High School. Danny was the only one who knew that Sam was on her own at the young age of 17, and he wanted to know how Jessie fit into her past. "So Jessie, Im guessing that this is your first time in Vegas?"
"Yep, it sure is."
"How about we take you out and show you some sights. We were heading over to the Palms for some drinks, your more then welcome to join us."
Jessie started to hesitate "You know I've had a long flight..."
Danny elbowed Mike and eyed him to help out "Yeah man come on, you and Sam can catch up later, we'll all just go have some drinks, do a little dancing, well have fun."
Jessie laughed at Mike dancing imitation, then briefly glanced at Sam who was very happy that her friends were accepting Jessie "Sure, sounds like fun."
"Great." Danny spoke
"So Ill get Jessie situated upstairs and we'll meet down here in ten minutes?" Sam asked checking her phone for the time
"Sounds great" Danny said speaking for the rest of the gang.
Jessie went to reach for the couple of bags that he dropped earlier, when Mike picked them up first "Here, let me help you with that"
Mike saw a flash of panic in Jesse's eyes "No, I can get them really, thanks" Jessie spoke grabbing the luggage from Mike's hands.
Mike watched Sam and Jessie leave to the elevators, and just when they were out of hear shot "Did you guys see that?"
"See what?" Nessa asked
"Jessie, I went to help him out with his bags and its like he panicked when I picked them up"
"Well, maybe he has some valuables in there or something." Mary offered
"Yeah, maybe" Mike said brushing off the subject
"Wait," Danny said "Were they heavy?"
"No not really, why?"
"I don't know, but he seemed a bit shady to me, didn't he?"
"No, not really" Nessa spoke
"He seems like a nice guy" Mary said
"I don't know, I just got this weird vibe from him" Danny sighed
"Maybe it's jealousy" Delinda laughed
The girls all started to laugh as Danny eyed Mike carefully "I didn't man I swear." Mike whispered
"Oh, come on Danny, we all know you have a thing for Sam" Mary spoke still smiling
"I don't have a 'thing' for Sam" Danny denied
"Sure, whatever Danny, then what is this 'weird vibe' you got from Jessie." Delinda chuckled softly
"I don't know, he just didn't-..alright fine maybe Im a little jealous, but still he just gives me the creeps"
"He did seem a bit shady, especially towards his past with Sam" Mike agreed
"Come on guys, this is Sam's friend were talking about, we all care about Sam don't we?, we should give him a chance." Delinda said
"Delinda's right guys" Mary agreed
"Sam really did seem to care about him" Nessa spoke
"I guess your right" Danny sighed.
Sam swiped her key through the door "....And this is home" she spoke opening the door for Jessie.
"Whoo, this is nice." he spoke setting his bags down carefully and looking around the suite.
"Yep...I guess it's alright, it's easier to do my job"
Jessie squinted his eye and looked at Sam "A casino host?" he asked in a hopeful tone
Sam laughed "What else would I be?"
Jessie let out a breath of relief "Im glad you took my advice."
Sam's smile left her and a wave of sadness took over. Jessie noticed the change of her expression and quickly comforted her "Im sorry Sammie, I didn't mean to-"
"No, Jessie, It's nothing." She interrupted him "Im really glad your here"
Jessie hugged her tightly "So am I" he whispered in her hair
Jessie let her go "So, are you ready to go?"
"Are you sure you want to go?"
"Yeah, your friends seem really nice....why?"
Sam hesitated "I don't know, cant we just sit her and talk...like we used to, I don't know nothing about you, for all I know you could be some serial killer"
Jessie laughed at her joke "I can assure you, I am not a serial killer."
"Jessie.." Sam whined not thinking it was funny
"Hon, we have plenty of time to get to know each other again, alright, I promise." he assured her
"How long are you staying?" Sam spoke a little confused "I thought you came just for a visit."
"Sammie, I like what you did to your hair, you look beautiful" Jessie grinned trying to avoid her question.
"Whoa Mr.Charming, don't go changing the subject"
"Let's go Sam, we don't want to keep your friends waiting" Jessie walked to the door opening it widely for her
Sam became skeptical "Alright Jess, Ill let it go this time, but your gonna have to tell me what your doing here sooner, rather than later" she grabbed her purse and walked out the door Jessie was holding for her.
Jessie let out a breath he was holding and closed door to the hotel room softly.
