Ch. 10- A Long Few Days
Sam woke a few minutes later. She sat up slowly because of the pulsing pain in her head. She put her hand to it and pulled it back covered with blood. She then noticed Jake was gone, but the Phantom was standing feet from her. When he noticed her stir he carefully walked over and stood next to her. Sam grabbed the silver stallion's mane and pulled herself up. He flinched a little at her touch, but stood still. She whispered into his ear, "Zanzibar, help me back to Ms. Allen's." As if he understood her perfectly he dropped to his knees so she could climb onto his back. She carefully lowered herself onto him so not to spook the wild stallion. Once she was on he carefully got to his feet. The Phantom began carefully walking in the direction that Sam told him to go. They walked for what felt like hours and Sam was about to give up when she saw Jake on Sweetheart step through the trees. The stallion dropped to his knees for a second time and Sam carefully slid off onto the ground. Sam whispered into the stallion's ear, "Thank you Zanzibar," before she fell to her knees and he wheeled away. Jake jumped off of Sweetheart and ran to Sam's side. Sam asked quickly, "Is Faith ok?" Jake nodded and asked, "Are you ok?" Sam nodded also and extended her hand so Jake could help her to her feet. She swayed a little but Jake helped her. He led her over to the mare and let her balance on Sweetheart's side. He carefully mounted and kicked his foot free of the stirrup so Sam could mount behind him. Once she was on they carefully walked all the way back to Ms. Allen's ranch.
When they got there Ms. Allen was waiting. Sam was leaning against Jake so he wasn't sure if she was asleep or unconscious. He yelled to Ms. Allen, "We need a first aid kit!" She quickly ran into the house and came back out. By that time Jake had dismounted and Sam was awake sitting on the ground next to Sweetheart. Ms. Allen kneeled next to Sam and began to dry the blood that was dripping down the side of her face. Ms. Allen was very concerned, "Are you ok Sam?" Sam nodded and grabbed Jake's arm to keep from falling over. "Can you bring her in the house Jake?" Jake helped Sam to her feet and than cradled her like a baby. He carefully brought her into the house and laid her on the sofa. She sat up against the arm of the sofa and held some ice on her head. Jake pulled up a chair next to her and took her hand in his. "This must be the billionth time you've saved me Jake. I don't know what I'd do without you," and for the first time in that long couple of days Jake rubbed the back of his neck in embarrassment. Sam laughed, "I can still get you, can't I?" Jake smiled, and kissed her, "Yes you can." They were talking about the events of the past few days when Bryanna, Wyatt, and Ms. Ely came running through the door. They all stopped when they saw both of the kids were ok. Ms. Ely walked over and kissed Sam on the forehead, "Sam, I don't know what Jake would do without you. I wish you'd quit scaring us like this." Then she leaned over and kissed Jake on the cheek who rubbed the back of his neck and before he could blink, Bryanna's arms were wrapped around his neck. "Jake, if it weren't for you Sam would probably be dead 4 or 5 times over by now." Jake blushed and squeezed Sam's hand as if to say that he didn't want all this attention. Wyatt came over and hugged Sam and ruffled her hair, and then he shook Jake's hand and smiled at the two of them. Sam couldn't help herself, "And it took Jake saving my life to get you over us dating?" Everyone laughed. Sam didn't know what she'd do without these people. Slowly Jake and Sam's parents and Ms. Allen drifted outside to give them some privacy. "I can't say enough words to thank you for saving my butt a countless number of times." Jake smiled, "Then don't," and he leaned over and began to kiss her. She pulled him onto the sofa next to her. They sat like this for a while then they broke apart and Sam rested her head on Jake's shoulder. Jake smiled and began to stroke her hair. They both fell asleep after a long few days. Their parents walked back in a few minutes later and Ms. Ely woke Jake. He carefully stood up and picked Sam up into his arms. He carried her out to her dad's truck where Ace was already in the trailer ready to go home. She smiled at Jake as he put her down on the front seat. She pulled him over and she kissed him until she heard her dad get in the car and shut the door. Jake tipped his hat to Wyatt and Bryanna and waved goodbye to Sam as they pulled away.
