My mom and I got into the car at 9:30 that morning, they unnecessarily put me in a wheelchair to the car but it was morning and I could finally leave.
My mom stayed the night and they made Danny go home to get rest so he wouldn't wear himself out (or kiss me while I was hospitalized.)
"SAMANTHA! YOU'RE AWAKE!" My mother yelled and pushed Danny away from me and pulled me into a tight hug until I made a small noise that she was hurting me a bit.
"How are you feeling? Are you ok? I should have been here! I had stepped out to get dinner and make a phone call, are you hurt? Are-" She rambled.
"Mom!" I said as loudly as I could manage
"I'm fine, my throat hurts a bit but other than that and a few bruises I'm going to be alright… Thanks to Danny, I'm alright." I said looking at him my lips tugging upward.
My mom looked at him and back to me and sighed.
"Yes, it really is, I cannot thank you enough for being there for my daughter" She said then to both of our shock she pulled him into a hug. If I hadn't been so shocked I would have laughed at the expression on his face.
"But also as much as I appreciate him, he does need to let you relax and get better." She scolded a tad pulling away, there she is, I was wondering what she had done with my mother.
"Saman- Sam" my mother said as the driver started to our house.
"Danny told me what happened. Are you okay? Do you need to talk to me about anything? I know I can be… stubborn, but I want you to know I am your mother, I will not judge you for anything" She said putting her hand on mine.
"Judge me for anything except for my clothing choices?" I said trying to lighten the mood. Her lips twitched up for a second.
"Yes, other than your clothing but I'm not judging I just want you to dress to show how beautiful of a person you are inside and out honey." she gave my hand a squeeze. My throat closed up I felt tears prick at my eyes, my mom and I had never been this close before.
"Thank you mom." I whispered. I took a breath to speak.
"What Danny said was pretty much what happened, Vlad-" my mom's eye suddenly became enflamed when I said his name, "Told me he wanted to show me the lab that he was taking a few people to show it off and I tried to say 'no thanks' but he kept insisting and said…" I took a deep breath, I knew what I had to say to get her to believe me.
"He said that you and dad would be disappointed in me, that I had a chance to get a real tour for once and that I wasn't good enough to be in the family's business" I said looking down at my hands not wanting to see the look on her face.
"I realized no one was down there and he grabbed my hands and I tried to get him away from me and that's when Danny got there… I stomped on Vlad's foot and he stumbled back and I don't" I choked up, half an act half me upset at the whole situation.
"Sammy…" My mom whispered pulling me into a soft hug.
"Everything, e-exploded" I sobbed into her.
"I was s-so s-scared and Danny-" I lost it as his name, I had been so terrified of losing him.
"D-danny got hurt b-because of me" I sobbed into her. Neither Danny or I would ever let go of the fact our actions caused the other pain.
"Shhh… You're okay now sweetie, Danny is safe and you are safe." She held on tightly to me.
"I am so sorry Sam" Her voice was thick. I pulled back and looked at her, her leftover mascara was around her damp eyes.
"For what?" I asked confused.
"For bringing you there, for making you feel that way. I am so sorry Sam" she pulled me back into a hug.
Neither of us were really okay but without everything that happened I had never been so close to my mother before, and for her and for Danny. It was worth everything.
