Chapter 5
Sam woke up the next morning still in Jason's arms. She must have fallen asleep, and aparently Jason did too. Last night when she just showed up at his door, he didn't ask any questions he just held her and let her cry. Sam looked at her watch and saw that it was eight o'clock. She knew she should go to school but she just didn't feel up to it. She didn't move, she just wanted to stay there in Jason's arms as long as she could.
An hour later Sam was looking around and noticed Jason wasn't there anymore. She must have fallen back asleep. She figured Jason must have decided to go to school. She sat up and then she heard a noise coming from the kitchen.
She walked over to the kitchen and saw Jason standing at the stove. She was only there for a few seconds when she saw him turn around.
"Hey, I see your awake" he said
"Yeah, I figured you would have went to school." she said heading over towards the table to sit doen.
"No, I only got up alittle while ago, and I wasn't going to leave you here alone."
"Hope your hungry" he said as he walked over to where she was sitting and passed her a plate.
"Well I don't usually eat breakfast but since you went through all the trouble to make it, I guess i can eat some of it." she said while looking at the food.
"So are you going to talk about last night or just pretend nothing happened. " he asked, hoping she would feel comfortable enough to talk about it with him.
"I was kinf of hoping you'd forget about that, but since I did show up here late last night I guess I kind of owe you an explanation."
"You don't owe me an explanation for anything, If you don't feel comfortable talking about it thats fine."
"No I do feel comfortable talking about it, especially with you." she told him, really meaning it.
"Me and my mom don't have a very good relationship. Ever since my dad left about four years ago she's changed and we don't get aolng. I pretty much live on my own and have since dad left. When she is home we usually always get in fights. Well last night was no different. she was mad because I didn't tell her where I was. Then I told her I was with friends but she saw you drop me off. She also dosen't trust me so i didn't tell her about you because I knew she would automaticlly assume that we were sleeping together, and sure enough she thought that. We got in another fight about that and alot of other things and she kicked me out. It wasn't the first time she usually tells me to get out, I go into my room and thats that, but last night I just couldn't stay there anymore, I've put up with to much from her these past four years. So basiclly thats how I ended up here. I was just walking and before I even knew where I was going I was outside your door." she let out a long sigh. It felt good to let it out, even if it was oly some of it, it felt like some weight was lifted of her sholders.
"I'm sorry I didn't think your life would be like that. You seemed so happy, like everything in your life was perfect, but I know now that its not." she said while reaching over the table to take her hand.
"thanks, I thought I was use to it by now. I thought I could live with it but I guess I can't. I should probably call my grandmother and see if I can stay with her."
"Um, you could stay here if you want."
"Jason I couldn't ask that of you" she said happy he asked but not wanted to burden him.
"You didn't ask, I asked you. I would love it if you'd stay here." he told her.
"Well, If your sure you woudn't mind me staying here, I'd love to. But remember you can kick me out anytime you want." she said while walking towards the sink to put away her plate. "Oh and by the way the food was delicious"
"Thanks, and don't worry I can gaurentee you that I wont kick you out."
"Thanks. Um would you mind coming with me later to get some of my things"
"Sure, when do you want to go?"
"Well I have to have a shower fisrt, so probably after that"
"sure" he said smiling at her.
She walked to the shower. she had a feeling that eerything would turn out fine after all.
