Gina was sitting in the living room, eating chips, and watching tv. She looked up at Jimmy and Sami, who was in his arms and chuckled.
"Hey, hun." she said, shoving chips in her mouth and watching MTV.
"Hey, G." Jimmy replied, setting Sami down on the big chair near the door. He went over and kissed Gina on the cheek. She got up after kissing him back, and went into her room. She wasn't too fond of Sami since she was just a runaway. Jimmy sat down on the couch and looked over at Sami who was messing with the loose thread on her shirt.
"So..." Jimmy started, breaking the slience in the living room, "where'd you go?" Sami looked up, sighing.
"I saw Kat jump out of her window..." she said, quietly.
"So, you wanted to be like Kat and jump out of your window too"
"No"
"Well, then why'd you leave"
"I had heard Kat's parents yelling at her and each other. Then I saw a figure climb out of a window and I figured it was Kat and I wanted to know what was wrong so I climbed out of my window"
"Oh"
"Yeah"
"You're a good friend, you know that?" Sami smiled, softly.
"Thanks"
"But you shouldn't go follow her. You should just tell Bam or something if she ever does that again"
"You're right..." Sami looked over at the window when she saw a pair of headlights shine through it. Jimmy stood up.
"Come on." Bam honked his horn. "Bam's waiting." Sami stood up too and started to walk over to the door. Jimmy gave her a hug.
"I'll see you later, kid." he said, opening up the door.
"Yeah. Bye, Jimmy"
"Bye." Sami ran out to Bambo's Lambo and slowly got in, not making eye contact with Bam at all. Bam sighed heavlily and backed out of the driveway. He drove to the place where he and Phil used to go when Phil was mad or disappointed in Bam.
Sami looked up through the windsheild.
"Where are we going?" she asked softly.
"Somewhere where we can talk." Bam replied, not taking his eyes off the road.
"Oh."
A few minutes later, Bam pulled over and got out of the car. Sami did the same and followed him to a bench near the same creek that Kat was throwing mud in, but in a different location. He sat down on the bench next to it and signaled for Sami to do the same, which she did.
"Why would you do that, Sami?" Bam asked, in a serious voice.
"I'm sorry..." she replied.
"Don't ever do that again! You scared everyone so bad!" Bam started to raise his voice.
"I said I was sorry"
"Like anything you say means anything to me." Sami turned away and sighed, starting to cry. Once Bam said that, he regretted it. "I didn't mean that...I'm so sorry"
"Like that would mean anything to me." Sami replied, mocking Bam somewhat. Bam ran his hands through his hair and felt bad that he would ever say that to her. She turned to face him and he pulled her in for a hug.
"Please don't do that again." Bam said.
"I won't." Sami replied.
"I was scared and frustrated. I didn't mean to say that"
"It's okay. I should be used to it by now anyway..." Bam hugged her tighter.
"But I didn't mean it...other people that would've said that to you probably meant it"
"I know. I know you didn't mean it. It just kinda reminded me of back where I came from. No one ever gave a shit about anything I said." Bam pulled away from her and gave her a kiss on the forehead.
"Now I know how Phil felt when he couldn't find me when I was your age"
"What"
"I took off one night without telling my parents. Phil found me and took me here"
"Oh. Why did you take off"
"I don't...wanna talk about it"
"Okay..." Sami yawned suddenly.
"You wanna go home?" Bam asked.
"Sure. I need sleep"
"Come on, let's go." The two of them got up and walked to the car and drove home.
Dico was pacing around in the lounge. Dunn and Raab were sitting on the couch, very close to each other.
"Are you guys cuddling?" Bam asked, walking into his house. Dunn and Raab quickly moved away from each other and blushed slightly.
"No...of course not." Dunn said, laughing nervously. Bam smirked and put a hand on Dico's (who was still pacing) shoulder.
"Calm down, Dic." Dico looked up and saw Sami. Sighing with relief, he plopped down on the couch.
"Where'd you find her?" Dico asked.
"Jimmy found her." Bam said, sighing.
"Good for him." Dic turned to look at Sami, who had been standing near the door the whole time. "Come here." he said to her. Sami walked over to the chair he was sitting in. He pulled her onto his lap and looked her in the eyes.
"Never. Do. That. Again." he said. "I won't. I promise." she replied. He smiled slighly and let her off of him. She walked over to Dunn and Raab and started laughing.
"You two were so cuddling! You know it!" Sami laughed.
"No we weren't!" Dunn said.
"Yes you were! Dico...did you notice these two lovebirds," Sami pointed over at the two men on the couch, "doing anything...out of the ordinary?" Bam laughed.
"I was too busy pacing to notice anything." Dico replied, laughing.
"You guys are such assholes." Raab retorted in a serious voice. Sami frowned and sat down in between the two of them.
"I was just kidding." Sami gave both of them hugs.
"Yeah, why do you have to be so serious about this? Hmmm?" Bam asked, starting to laugh again. Sami and Dico laughed, too. Dunn rolled his eyes and changed the subject.
"I'm tired. I'm going to bed." he said, standing up.
"I'm getting tired too." Raab agreed. The two of them walked to their rooms and shut the door.
"Don't you wonder if they sleep in seperate beds or not?" Sami asked. Dico laughed.
"You can't tell since they both go in through the same doorway." he said. Suddenly, the three of them heard a thud come from Raab's room.
"Eww..." Sami said, making a discusted face.
"Get your mind out of the gutter, dumbass." Bam said.
"But what if...ewww...nevermind. I'm going to bed. I hope I don't dream about this or something." Sami shuddered and walked upstairs to her room, leaving Dico and Bam downstairs alone.
Bam and Dico sat down on a couch in the lounge.
"Any news on the test results?" Dico asked, striking up a conversation.
"Nope. We're supposed to hear about them tommorow." Bam said, not wanting to talk about the subject they were on.
"So, are they sending the papers to him or what"
"Yeah. Then he's gonna come over and tell us if the test was positive or not."
"Okay"
"I'm anxious to find out"
"Do you want the results to be positive?" Bam looked down once Dico asked this question. He played with the loose thread on his jeans. "Bam"
"No. I want them negative..." he finally replied.
"You really love her...a lot, don't you?"
"Yeah. She's probably the only reason I'm living right now." Dico sighed and gave Bam a comforting hug. Bam started to tear up.
"Don't worry, Bam. They might be negative and she won't have to leave"
"But...if they aren't...she will have to leave...I don't want that." Bam started to cry.
"Please don't cry."
"I...can't...help it..." Dico held Bam until they both fell asleep on the couch together, not looking forward to the next day.
