A/N-Here is a new chapter. If anybody watched tonight's episode of One Tree Hill can I just say that I really hate Alex right now…She needs to get a life…anyway, hope you enjoy the chapter.
Sam is in her hospital bed with the doctor checking her over. Julian went to get coffee and Brooke had to make a phone call.
"How are you feeling this morning, Sam?"
"Still sore, still exhausted…Am I allowed to go home now because no offense, I hate hospitals."
Brooke comes into the room with a smile on her face.
"What's the prognosis doc? Can I take her home?"
The doctor smiles at both Brooke and Sam.
"Sam is healing quite nicely and yes she can go. I will need you to sign some discharge papers though."
"No problem," Brooke says with a smile.
The doctor leaves the room and Brooke turns to Sam.
"I just got off the phone with your social worker-and I'll spare you the details-anyway, she says that they gave me back guardianship of you so we're going home Sam."
Sam smiles and lays her head back.
"They haven't found them yet, have they?" Sam asks in a whisper.
"No they haven't, but don't worry about it okay?"
Sam takes a breath and smiles at Brooke. Julian comes in with 2 cups of coffee and hands on to Brooke.
"Latte, extra foam," Julian says as he hands the cup to Brooke.
"Thanks," Brooke says with a small smile.
"I want coffee," Sam whines.
Julian laughs and Brooke shakes her head.
"No coffee for you you're recuperating and I don't want you drinking coffee anyway."
The doctor comes in with papers and hands them to Brooke.
"A nurse will be in here shortly with a wheelchair."
"I can walk," Sam protests.
"Hospital policy, sorry."
Brooke hands the papers back to the doctor and he smiles before excusing himself from the room.
"A nurse will be in soon," the doctor repeats before he leaves.
"I'm going to bring the car up front. I'll see you soon."
Brooke leaves the room and Julian hands a bag to Sam.
"I got you some sweets and a t-shirt."
Sam stands up from her bed and heads to the bathroom to change. When she does, she comes back and sits on her bed carefully.
"You were crying yesterday…I've never seen you cry."
"I don't cry very often."
"Why were you crying?"
"About my situation and the way my life has turned out."
"No one likes the situation J.B. nobody except for Alex."
Julian sits down next to Sam and she lays her head on his shoulder as he puts his arm around her.
"She still loves you," Sam says confidently.
"How do you know?"
Sam smiles at Julian's stupidity.
"She wouldn't be so hurt if she didn't."
Sam takes her head off of his shoulder and looks at him.
"Julian, what do you want to happen?"
Julian takes a breath and runs his hands through his hair.
"I don't know Sampson."
"Well maybe you should answer that question first before you do anything else."
Julian stayed silent to Sam's comment because he realized that Sam was right. He always knew that Sam was an intelligent girl and it made him realize more that Sam had grown up fast because of her ordeals in foster care. It made him happy that Sam could prove the stereotype wrong about foster kids and how they were dumb and that nobody wanted them.
A nurse comes into the room with a wheelchair and Sam sits down in it. They soon exit the room and head down to the hospital parking lot.
Once they reached the outside Sam went into the front seat of Brooke's car.
"No remember no strenuous activity we don't want you to pull a stitch," the nurse says before walking away.
"I'll talk to you later Sammy, see you later Brooke."
"Bye," both girls reply in unison.
Sam watched as Julian walked away and Brooke turned to Sam.
"You ready to go home?"
Sam smiles and nods her head.
"Yeah, I'm ready to go home."
The car ride home was silent for the most part. Both girls were spending more time in their brains then anything. Brooke was thinking about her life with Sam and also lately, Julian. She was still hurt by Julian, but being with Sam and Julian at the same time again made her feel like she never lost anything to begin with. She knew that she loves Julian, but she doesn't know what to do about it. Sam on the other hand was thinking about her parents. She was scared to death, but she wouldn't tell Brooke about it. She was dealing with stuff all on her own. Sam was afraid to close her eyes at night because she would always see his face. Brooke had always thought she was asleep, but in all actuality she wasn't, she couldn't, she was just too scared.
Brooke pulls into her driveway and both she and Sam get out of the car and walk into the house. Brooke is surprised to see who is waiting there for her.
"Mom, what are you doing here?"
Victoria stands up and gives Brooke and Sam a hug.
"I heard about Samantha, sweetie, are you okay?"
"Um yeah, thanks," Sam says hesitantly.
"Sam, why don't you go lie down okay? You need sleep."
"I don't want to," Sam whispers.
Brooke didn't hear her, but Victoria did. She chose not to mention it in front of her daughter at the moment.
Sam heads to her bedroom and takes a minute to look around. It hadn't changed from the last time that she was there. Sam lies down and pulls out her phone and starts texting Julian. It was something knew that they had started ever since they had stopped talking for awhile. After the whole ordeal with Brooke, Sam was furious at Julian. She could remember it like it was yesterday.
Sam storms into Julian's house screaming his name.
"Julian! Where the hell are you?"
Julian walks out of his room in his pajamas and rubs at his eyes.
"Sampson, what's going on?"
"How could you do that to her? How could you cheat on Brooke?! Do you not care about her?!"
"Sam, you don't understand."
"No you don't understand Julian. You broke her heart. How could you do that? You're a real piece of work."
"Samantha, it's complicated."
"Actually it's not. You shouldn't have done it and if you haven't figured it out all ready I'm on her side. Don't talk to me ever again."
Sam leaves in a hurry and Julian stands watching Sam leave with anger.
Sam didn't talk to Julian for a month and it hurt their relationship. Eventually it took Haley and a small budge from Brooke to get Sam to talk to Julian again. She did and they swore to each other that no matter what happened they wouldn't stop talking for as long as they had.
A/N-The ending of this chapter was probably really lame, but I needed to end it at some point. I hope you readers liked it. REVIEW!
