Chapter 13
Sam was bored. It had been a week since she was out of the hopital. And yes it was also summer vacation. But she didn't feel like celebrating. In fact, she was down right mad. Gram kept watching her like a hawk, he dad didn't let her do anything afraid she might die or something, and Byanna didn't really look at her at all. At least Cody was acting the same. Jen came by a couple of times with Ryan. Even Darrell stopped in to see her a bunch of times. But the most important person didn't. Jake. Nothing. If she was forced she would say that she missed him.
Jake looked out the window of his mother's car. They were supposed to be going to town because she wanted to spend some time with her 'baby' before her 'baby' went to college. He had to admit that he was miserable. When ever he talked it was usually sarcastic. That is if you could get him to talk. Even his brothers were worried about him. He hadn't talked to Sam in over a week. He was down right avoiding her. He just didn't want to make things worse than they were. Even though that would be pretty hard to do.He was leaving soon. Well at the end of the summer. Which was pretty soon if you really thought about it.
"Jake, I'm sorry but I forgot I had to stop at River Bend, I have Samantha's report card to drop off." Maxine Ely looked at her youngest son. "Can you please drop it off?"
"I can't." He said shortly. He knew he would have to see her again. But he just couldn't now.
"Ok, the first time was a question now its a command...Jake take this to the house please." She said it becuse she loved him. Seriously! Jake looked at her and nodded slightly. Got out of the car with the envelope and walked slowly to the house.
Sam was lying on the couch trying to think of something to do that could stop the boredom. Ugh! Now I know how Jake and Jen felt when they got hurt. Jake his broken leg and Jen her broken rib. Sam sighed. She also had a broken rib. It hurt to do everything. Sit, lie down, talk, get up, laugh the most. She was home alone. The girls and Cody went to Darton for the day. And her dad was out with the hands. She was just supposed to rest peaceful-. She was going to finish peacefully before someone knocked on the door quietly. Just when nobody was home either! She groaned as she tried to get up. Once she did she then had to walk. Oooh ya life was rough.
"Hello?" She said as she opened the door, not seeing anybody.
"Oh, uh hey." Jake stepped from beside the house.
"Hi." Sam said quietly looking down at the bandage over her ribs and the shirt over top of it.
"My mom wanted me to drop off these for you. I-Its your uh, report cards." He said nervously. Sam nodded slowly and took them from his hands. She opened them up to look at her grades.
"Wow my math grade went up." She said still looking at the paper. "I guess I have you to thank for that." Jake shrugged.
"You knew your stuff, you just didn't want to do it." He said softly. It was silent for a few moments. He looked back at his mom sitting back in the car waiting.
"I better go." He said and started to leave before she spoke again.
"How could you do this to me? You've never lied to me before. Why now?" She said then walked back into the house away from him, so he wouldn't see her cry leaving Jake standing there once more. What now.
