CH 22

Sam spoke to the ref for few seconds then he nodded. Sam turned around and walked over to where Jack and the others are.

"Sam are"

She put her finger to his lips while looking into his eyes then she moved it away then she brought both hands up facing Jack, he put his hands into hers then they both close their eyes. Every one look at them strangely for a minute then they both open their eyes and look at each other then they let go of each other.

"Sam one piece of advice… kick the guy ass" they both smile

"I'll do that for you Jack" then she turned around and walked onto the mat. John looked at Jack

"Son we going to have a talk later"

"I know, in the meantime let watch what going to happen"

"Ok" they look at where Sam is.

They watch Sam and the guy bow to the ref then to each other then Sam moved and swipe her leg behind his and he ended on the ground then she pretend to punch him then she stood up and was rewarded the point.

Then the guy got up then they did the double bow then he try to kick Sam in the head only she duck and punch him in the ribs. She was awarded the second point. Then they did it again only to have the guy punched her in the face why they were still bowing.

Sam shook her head then return to her spot then they did the double bows then she went to kick him only to have him grab her leg. She smiles then she did a flip where her foot hit his chin and nose as she flipped over causing the guy to let go and she landed on her feet.

Then quickly move and kick his legs out under him and he landed on his back. Then she pretended to hit him then she stood up and she was awarded the last point and became the first female Colorado champion and the youngest also.

Every one cheer Sam and her team mates ran on to the mat to congratulate her while her opponent got up and walked back to his shock team mates only to have his sin-sa yelling at him. Every heard him and they stop and look at what was going on. Sam walked over to them and the guy stop and look at Sam

"You don't like losing do you"

"No" he said coldly

"Well you will have to get used to it and what I saw today from you is poor sportsmanship and you have no respect from your pupils like that the way you treated them today" then she turned to the guys there

"All of you have got a lot to think about over the next five years, to win you gotta play fair, some of you weren't playing fair and that is poor sports mans and leadership. You all got a lot of growing up to do and I wish you all the best for the future"

Then she bowed to them then turned around and walked over to where Jack is, he opened his arms for her and she went into them. They both hugs with smiles on their faces and the ones who are there clap and cheer them on, then Sam team mate cheer Sam on once again. When they pulled apart

"I'm proud of you Sam"

"Thanks Jack" then they both hug once again

"I better get back"

"Yes you better"

Then she turned around and walked back over to where her teammates are and talk. Jack waved Sam Sin-sa over and talked to him for a minute before returning back to the group. Once everyone calm down the awards and trophies were given out.

While that was happening, Jack got some of the guys to go back to his place, to get everything set up and to contact everyone else about the double party.

Then they left to do that while the rest watch the awards been given out. Sam received two trophies for what she did. When she was holding on to them she was having her photo taken with all of the other winners, then there was one with her team and one on her own. Then the reporter asked San couple of questions before she returns back to her group. Few minutes later, they left to get change.

"Well shall we, knowing Sam she will be hungry" jack said

They all got up and walked out to where other parents are who was also watching their children doing their best. Jack teammates left so they could go and get their kids and met him back at his house.

"Well Jack I'll say Sam got a good change of being in the air force after what happen today"

"True, with the way she fights, she was fighting level five almost hand to hand combat"

"And that is what?"

"Sorry dad it like with karate with the belts, level five is like getting the black belt"

"Ah" then Sam walk out smiling and over to them

"So Sam what would you like to do now"

"Party after all it is your house warming party" she said smiling

"True, so shall we" they walk out and over to where John rental car is and gotten in, then they headed home.

They talk the entire ways home, even laugh till they turn down the driveway to see cars there. When they got out they walk up to the front door and they could hear the music playing.

They walk in and Sam walk up stairs to her bedroom to put things away then she went to relieve herself and wash her hands before walking down stairs and outside to see some of Jack teammates and families there talking, eating and drinking.

"Here is the champ herself" Jack said smiling at Sam. She walked over and Jack did the introduction to the ones she didn't know when finish.

"So Sam what is it like being a champ?"

"Pretty good" she said smiling

"So what are you going to do now?" another one asked

"Get a drink, if you will excuse me"

Then she walked over to where the chilli bins are and got herself a bottle of coke and talkedto a couple of women there

"Jack why her, she… just a kid" Jack turn and look at them.

"I know how old she is and no we are not sleeping together, she got her own room for when she comes here on weekends"

"Does she go to a private school?"

"University in Denver" they were all shock

"You're joking?"

"Nope this is her freshman year but from what she told me she doing three different classes to get her degrees"

"What is she going for?"

"Theoretical Astrophysics, biology and physics"

"Wow all at once?"

"Yes and she has been tutoring the ones who are struggling in areas"

"It must be full on her not to have a social life?"

"Well she is in four clubs that are off campus and she spends her weekends here so she could study in peace and also to relax"

"What about when you are away Jack?"

"She still comes here, which I don't mind, I trust her"

"How long have you known Sam for?"

"Almost seven years"

"Wow, that is along time"

"I know, but at least I'm there for her when she needs me"

"Meaning"

Then other guest showed up, Sam walk over to great them and show them where the drinks are, every thing. Jack was watching her before turning back to the group and taking a mouthful of his drink.

"Sam has had a ruff time before we met"

"Was she abuse?"

"No… her father won't talk or even look at her"

"That a bit low"

"I know, her mother well looks can be deceiving, like last weekend, Sam was looking ford to spending the weekend with her family, only to return not even fourth hours later… crying"

"What happened?"

"Her parents had a Fourth of July party at their place. Sam did all the work except for cooking over the barbecue. Sam did everything else, cooking up the salad, making sure that there was plenty of drinks and snacks out cleaning up during and afterward. She only stop long enough to get a drink then back to it again"

"Wow sounds like she has been busy"

"There more, no one there spoke to her till one couple did at then end, but only for a couple of minutes before they left. She was treated like a worker, not a daughter. When everything was clean up she went to have a lie down before leaving for the big show only to fallen asleep"

"Did they wake her up?"

"No, she woke up just before the sun was setting, they were gone, so she made a couple of calls then a few hours later she was in my arms crying, she told me what had happened. So I got Andy to get her a hotdog and drink which she ate but she was still tired but at least she got to watch the show"

"What does her parents do?"

"Her father and brother are in the air force, her mum a science teacher"

"How old is her brother?"

"Almost eighteen this is his first year in the air force"

"Ah"

Then more guests show up and Sam walked over and spoke to them and show them where everything is, then she look at Jack who waved her over, so she walked over to him. He pulled her down on his lap.

"Sam what did we talk about before"

"I know, but since you can't greet your guests someone got to" every one there smile

"Thanks, just remember"

"I know to have fun that I'm going to do, so how many more are coming"

"More"

"Gee I hope there is plenty of food and drinks for everyone"

"Yes there is"

"I hope so" Jack smile at her

"So who doing the barbeques?"

"Don't you worry about that, here have some chips and relax"

He picked up a bowl and she took some chips out and started eating them, then he put the bowl back on the table.

"Sam do you like it here in Colorado?"

"Yes more friendlier than at Washington"

"I bet that move you make, that was a shocker, where did you learn to do that?"

"I was in gymnasts when I was at high school so combatant that with martial arts, well that is what you get"

"Sounds pretty lethal"

"It can be" then she got up

"Excuse me more…" she was shocked to see her sin-sa and some of her teammates showing you, she turns to Jack who was smiling

"Surprise, I through you would like to have karate champ party as well" Sam throw her arms around Jack neck and hug him the she pulled back

"Thank you Jack I love the surprise"

"That good to know"

She gave him a kiss then turn around and ran over to them she talk to them and show them where the food and drinks are. Then she talked to them till more guests showed up.

"Jack you sure can be full of surprises"

"I know and she deserves it, and you all saw the look on her face, you can tell that she is happy"

"True"

Over the next few hours everyone enjoyed themselves, including Sam. Three of the guys took care of the barbeques and some of the women made sure that there was plenty of food and drinks for everyone. When the patties were cooks, Sam got Jack first before she got her own.

She joins her teammates who were sitting on the grass talking and laughing. Later that evening, Jack said a speech; he was on the patio.

"I would like to thank everyone for coming to my housewarming party and for Sam karate champ party. I hope you all enjoyed ourselves tonight and sorry I couldn't be much of a host but thank you Sam for greeting everyone here, I don't know what I'll do with you"

Sam walked over and up the steps and gave him a hug. Then turn to every one there

"Thanks for coming and Jack thanks for the surprise champ party and as for what you will do without me, I think we both would be lonely without the support of each other and our friends here tonight. I… We hope you all had plenty tonight and thank you for coming, this means a lot to us both" they all clap

"Ok there still plenty to eat and drink so shall we"

"Hey Jack you need some lights out here?" Jack and Sam look at each other and smile

"Sam would you like to do the honour"

"Sure" Sam walk down to the garage and turn the outside colour lights on then return

"Its that that you wanted" he said smiling,

Then he got his crutches and hop down the steps and over to a table and sat down and put his leg up just as Sam walk over and pass him a soda since he not aloud to have any alcohol cause of the meds he is on.

Everyone was gone by one in the morning and the place was clean up. John said his goodnight before going to bed, then Jack and Sam went up to their rooms. After Sam was in her nightie she went and gave Jack a kiss good night before returning back to her room with a smile on her face. They sleep in which they both didn't mind.

Sam, John and Jack spent the day talking, laughing, having a relaxing day. Sam return back to her dorm that night after John drops her off and She gave Jack a hug and kiss before they left. Sam walked in to her dorm and to her room.
