Jazz drove me back to Sam's house, where I was to stay for only one more week. One last week of this town and I was gone for good, no more Sam, no more of this town. I might never see Sam again. Ok, I would, because after Jazz was able to leave, we were allowed to take our old house back, but still. It would be a whole two years before she could actually leave with me.

I opened up my car door to get into Sam's house as fast as possible. I slammed the car door behind me, and Jazz gave me a dirty look, but I couldn't look at her for long. She was making me move in with him, he would kill me! Sam got out of the car, and closed the door gently, then ran up the steps to me.

"Danny, you Ok?" She asked me, setting her hand on the door to open it up. I walked inside of the house, and she followed.

"No, I'm not Ok. If you were moving into a house with your enemy, would you be Ok?"

"Well… no… but I could kill Paulina if I wanted to."

"I'm not talking about people, I'm talking about someone with years more experience than you, someone who wants to kill you and get revenge!"

"Yeah.. I know…"

"Sam, sorry, but things just, aren't right for me right now, and I'm sorry if I'm acting mean. I don't mean to act that way, I promise."
"I know you don't," she told me, and grabbed ahold of my hand. Her hands were much warmer than mine.

"Come on," she said, walking me back up the stairs to her room. She took me into her room, and gently shut her door.

"Let's just, act like we used to, huh? Make things seem normal for now."

"Sam, that's kinda hard to…" She cut me off, by kissing me. She placed her hands around my back, and after the shock, I returned her kiss, and wrapped my arms around her. We broke apart, but are faces were still close together, and our arms still wrapped around each other and I asked, "That was acting like we used to act?"
She just smiled and pressed her lips up against mine, and we kissed again.

"Normal now," she said after breaking apart again. We let go of each other, and I was happy now, forgetting the earlier things that went on. I wished that could last forever though.

"Your not so depressed now," she said, walking up to me, and putting her arm around my neck.

I smiled at her, and laughed a little, and she did too.

"Danny, I wish you wouldn't have to go away. Why can't you just stay here? Why can't you hide somewhere."
"Because Sam, I just can't."

She laid off on the subject, and didn't want to fight me over it, since it would do her no good. She walked away from me, over to a sliding glass door, in which she opened, and walked out to her balcony. I followed her out there, and I could see a clear sight of my house, which made me feel no better, but I chose to ignore my house off in the distance, and keep my eyes on Sam.

"Why not Danny? I want you to stay here."
"Sam, just forget about it, Ok? I have to go, Vlad will find me. Vlad will do anything to make sure he gets what he wants. He might even harm you, or Jazz. He doesn't care."

"Oh, but Danny," she sighed, and turned to look at me, but I looked away, and sighed, "no Sam, I can't."

She looked away from me, off the side of the balcony, and I walked up behind her. She turned to look at me, and she looked worried now. She looked back off the balcony again, and proceeded to try and convince me, "Danny, Vlad won't hurt anyone. Keep Jazz here too, he will never come here to find you,"

"Yes, he will," I told her, facing off the balcony with her, looking at the sunset that was casting a pinkish, red color across the sky, and the land around us. The light reflected off of everything, and made the whole city look perfect.

"It's pretty, huh?" Sam asked me, clearing her mind of the thoughts, and focusing on something better, something cheerful.

"Yea, just like you."

She smiled at me, and grabbed ahold of my hand tightly.

"I never want to let go of you," she said, facing back to the sunset, clenching my hand in hers tightly. I squeezed her hand too, but I didn't have all the happiness in the world. I felt happy, but I wasn't exactly happy. After all, I knew there wouldn't be many moments like this with Sam, and this could very well possibly be my last moment ever like this.

I wish I could bottle up this happiness, and take it with me everywhere, but that was impossible. The thoughts could be there forever, but the happiness couldn't. I couldn't keep the happiness, it was there for the moment, and it would leave again once I wasn't happy. Then, the only way I could get it back again was to be happy again, but it wouldn't be the same kind of happiness. Every kind was different, happiness from love, happiness from laughs, happiness from friendships, happiness from smiles, and happiness from a lot of other things. But, the happiness I shared with Sam, was like no other. There wasn't anything that could make me happier.

"But you have to, and I wish you didn't," I remarked sadly. Ruining both of our happiness, because Sam let go of my hand, and walked back into her room.

"Look Danny, maybe you should just go to your room, and relax," she sighed, and didn't even look at me as I entered her room.

"Sam, look, I can't help it, I have to…"

"I know you do Danny, but…"

"But what?"

"You can't… You can't go there…"

"Sam, I have to."

"But, what if he kills you? Then I will never see you again."

"Yes, that's true, but… I have to Sam. I'm not doing this to hurt you, I would do anything to not have to do this, but I have no choice."

"Anything? Then why not just hide."

"Because, I need to go, for other's safety."

"I don't care about my safety Danny! I would put my life up at risk just for you."
"But that isn't happening Sam… Because I would put mine up for your safety."

Sam turned around, her eyes twinkling from being filled with tears. She blinked, and the tears streamed down her face, her eyes red.

"Don't cry Sam, please. I will be safe when I leave, I promise. Then I will come back to you when I can."

She shook her head from left to right, closed her eyes, then opened them up, and looked at me straight in the eyes.

"I want to come with you Danny."

"But you can't Sam! Your parents would never let you!"
"I want to come with you. I want to make things better. I don't want to have to worry about you for two years of my life."

"Sam, you can't come!"

"I will, I will come with you, please let me come? Sneak me into Jazz's car, and take me with you Danny… you have to," she said confidently, her face stained with tears, but at least she was no longer crying.

"But then what happens when your parents look for you?"

"They will never know where I went Danny. Please, take me with you?"

Ok, I know, it was kinda short, but hey. I have a lot to work on right now, and besides, it was at least an update, right? And a good cliffy to go along with it! Please review!
