Note to LOTRgurl: Moe is short for Maurice, and it just makes more sence then having everyone call him by his nickname.

Chapter Twenty Six:

Sam had to sit through a boring ride, mostly filled with baby talk between the "grown ups". They couldn't be grown up even if someone threatened them, it was making her sick.

"Shut the hell up, both of you." Sam yelled.

Both Chad and Ritza jumped, they didn't expect that.

"Sorry Sammy, didn't know we were bothering you." Chad explained.

"You wouldn't be bothering me if I was riding with Mikey, but noooooo I have to ride with you two."

"Sammy, you know why I did that."

"Why did you do that?" Ritza asked.

"He did that cause he doesn't trust me." Sam answered.

"Oh, that sucks. I'm sorry to hear that."

"Thank you, at least someone in this car trusts me."

"Did I leave or something?" Chad asked.

"I'm sorry, it's really not my place." Ritza said turning to the window.

"Sammy, I only did that so I could keep an eye on you."

"Whatever, just don't talk to me." Sam said kicking the back of his chair.

The rest of the ride was quiet, Ritza stopped talking to Chad. Girls always gotta stick together, she didn't see why Chad didn't trust her. But then again this really wasn't her place, so why make it a fight?

When they finally parked the car, Mikey pulled up next to them. Everyone got out and started talking.

"Sam, this is Heather. Heather, Sam." Moe said introducing them.

"Nice to meet you Sam." she said shaking her hand.

She was kinda dark, Spanish maybe. She was short and seemed really nice.

"Same here." Sam said smiling.

"You guys aren't going to tag along the whole time, are you?" Mikey whined.

"Nope, just long enough." Moe said.

"What does that mean?" Sam asked.

Without another word spoken, they all walked into the mall. They walked for a while before anyone said anything.

"Moe, can we go now? You can trust them." Heather said.

"Where do you wanna go?" he asked.

"Anywhere else, you've got to learn to trust them."

"Alright, fine. Later guys."

"Bye." they all said in unison.

They got some burgers and sat in the food court, it didn't take long for some old guy to walk up to Sam.

"Hey cutie." he said.

"Bye." she said turning in her chair.

Chad couldn't believe his eyes, was that who he thought it was? Was he actually trying to hit on Sam?

"Oh c'mon, you don't mean that. I'm Al Lowenstein, what's you're name?" he asked.

"None of you're business."

Chad stood up and walked over to them, he heard him say his name and knew it was him.

"Hey dad, how's life been?" he asked stepping between them.

"I don't have kids, you're not mine." he said looking up at him.

"I'm Chad and this is my sister Sam, we're you're children."

"I don't have kids, are you deaf?"

"You married Gail Kennedy, she had one kid you stayed. She had another, you left."

"Gail? Are you really my children?"

"In the flesh."

Sam couldn't believe this was her father, the same old guy that just tried to hit on her. Just the thought made her sick, and she ran to the bathroom.

"You can't be."

"Why don't you just leave, I don't ever wanna see you're face anywhere near her ever again. Got it?"

He didn't even say anything, he just left. Mikey couldn't believe what he'd just seen, he sat there staring. Ritza had followed Sam, she wanted to make sure she was okay.

"Sammy, are you alright?" she asked knocking on the stall door.

"I'm fine, go away." came the reply.

"Honey I'm just making sure you're okay, Chad took care of him for you."

"Good for him, now please leave."

"Alright, fine."

She walked over to their table and sat down, she looked around at the two faces staring at her.

"What?" she asked.

"Is she alright?" Mikey asked.

"She said she's fine."

They sat there in silence until Heather and Moe caught up to them, they both sat down.

"Uh oh, what's wrong?" Moe asked.

"Sam's father came by, he started hitting on her." Mikey explained.

"Oh my God, that sucks." Heather said.

Sam soon came back, she sat down at the table and didn't say anything. She was both pissed and shocked. Pissed that her father would do that, and shocked that it was her father.

"Why don't we go home." Chad said standing up.

"Yeah, that's a good idea."

"Moe, Heather, you're riding with me and Ritza. Mikey, you're taking Sam home."

"Alright." Mikey said nodding.

Sam got up and walked to Mikey's car, she still hadn't said anything. Most of the ride she was still silent, Mikey couldn't take it anymore.

"Sammy, are you alright?" he finally asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine."

"No you're not, what's wrong?"

"I never met my father, and now I come to find out he's a pervert. It's not really something you look forward to."

Mikey pulled up in front of her house, he was shocked when she didn't get out.

"Sammy, you're home." he said.

"Let's go to you're house, I can't face my mother now."

Without another word Mikey drove back down the street, they both got out and went inside. She sat down on the couch and so did he, she leaned over and put her head on his chest.

"Sammy, are you really alright?" Mikey asked again.

"I'm fine, I like it here."

"My house really isn't that nice."

"Not you're house, I like sitting like this with you." she said looking up at him.

"Oh, yeah so do I."

"You wanna watch tv?"

"Yeah sure, what do you wanna watch?"

"I don't really care, as long as I don't have to move."

Mikey turned the tv on and flipped through channels, he ended up watching an infomercial. Moe came into the living room.

"Hey Mikey, what's on?" he asked.

"Shhhhh, Sammy's sleeping." Mikey whispered.

"What the hell is she doing here? Chad's gonna have my ass."

"What Chad doesn't know, wont hurt him."

"Bull shit, he's gonna freak."

"Then call him and tell him."

"Yeah right, I'll just pick up the phone and call him."

"It couldn't hurt."

"You two do realize I'm awake right?" Sam asked scaring both of them.

"Sam, I think you should go home. Chad will kick you're ass." Moe said.

"He'll live. Besides he's got Ritza over there, I'll be lucky if he even remembers I'm gone."

"Alright fine, you can stay here tonight. Just don't do anything."

"Like what? Watch tv?" Mikey asked.

"Yeah watch tv, that exactly what I don't want you doing."

"He doesn't want us to screw like dogs." Sam explained.

"I didn't say that, but don't do it." he said leaving the room.

"I'm going to sleep now, goodnight." she kissed him and snuggled back down.

He wrapped his arms around her and they both fell asleep, it was the safest Sam had felt in a very long time.
