Here it is you guys Chapter 10. It'll will probably a long one
Sam and Madison were having fun at the big rival game. Austin let Sam wear his practice jersey and of course his letterman jacket.
Austin had just scored his fifth and the winning touchdown, resulting in the crowd cheering his name.
Sam screamed out "Go Baby!" encouraging him.
"That's right cheer your man on sister-girl." Madison yelled over the cheering stuck her tongue out at Madison causing Madison to laugh. "C'mon let's go get the car." She said grabbing Sam's hand.

"Snot." Sam said causing Madison to nearly gag.
"Cot." Madison responded.
They were playing the rhyme game to pass the time while waiting for the boys to come out and get the weekend started officially. Over 40 minutes had already passed.
"Lock." Sam said.
"Stop." Madison begged.
"Yacht." Sam smiled ignoring her best friend's obvious request.
"Oh, good one Mamantha." Madison offered. "Block."
"Where are they?" Sam asked. "Not."
"Don't know but I am getting irritated."Madison answered then looked around. "Lot."
"Shot."
"Bach."
"Ugh!" Sam literally growled out.
"I take it we're done playing." Madison mumbled out.
They had been waiting for 45 minutes for sure now.
"Where are they?" Sam asked again except this time it wasn't really a question it was more like a statement.
"Look there's Toby." Madison stated pointing to Toby who was closing in on the car. "But where's my big brother?" She ended quietly.
"Hey Tobz, what's going on?" Sam asked hopping out of the car and meeting him in the front. She then looked to her best friend and took a step back, she should've been the one to greet him first. "Sorry Madi."
"Its ok. Where's my brother, baby?" Madison asked wasting no time.
Toby took a deep breath and cut off eye contact by looking at the ground.
"He's not coming." Toby said.
"Why not?" Sam and Madison asked at the same time.
"Cheerleaders throwing him and the football team a party." Toby responded now looking at the other cars.
"Which means you aren't coming either." Sam stated.
"Well I am part of the team, and somebody has to be there that has Austin's back."
"Ok." Sam said.
There was an awkward silence. It was Sam's turn to look at the ground.
"Austin said for you and Madi to take the car." Toby focused his attention on his little sister. It was as if she felt it to. Something was going happen tonight. Sam looked up at her big brother and saw his eyes pleading with her to not be too upset.
"How come Austin couldn't come with you to tell us?" Sam asked.
"Couldn't get away."
"Okay." Sam said.
Another awkward silence.
Sam shook her head and put on a smile for her big brother. "Ok go have fun. Go celebrate it. You guys really deserve it T." She turned to look at Madison who was frowning. "Right Sadi?"
"Yeah, whatever Mammy." Madison rolled her eyes and walked away to the passenger side while calling over her shoulder "HAVE A GREAT TIME!"
"Sister I," Toby tried.
"Look I know you're upset about it too, but make the most of it. See you later." Toby's eyes then moved and lingered to his girlfriend who sat fuming in the car. "I'll talk to her, go." Toby only nodded then turned and walked back.
Sam turned around and made her way back into the vehicle, Sam slammed the door.
"Wow." Sam stated after sitting in silence for a couple of minutes.
"Yep." Madison popped the p.
"So"
"To the diner?"
"Yep!" Sam said as she started the car.

As soon as the two best friends entered the diner their disappointment vanished.
"SAMANTHA ELIZABETH!" Rhonda exclaimed. "Where have you been? Oh hey Madison." Rhonda reached out and gave her a hug.
"I was here a couple of days ago. And where is my hug?"
Rhonda then reached out and gave Sam a hug. "Y'all seat yourselves. What do you want to eat?"
"Two barbeque bacon cheeseburgers." They both said.
"One with a side of onion rings."
"The other with chili fries."
"And two 's." They both completed the order.
Rhonda shook her head and smiled "Coming right up girls."
Sam and Madison went to their regular booth Sam sat with her back facing the door and Madi sat facing the door.
"Are you really mad at Tobz?"Sam asked.
"No of course not." Madison responded. "I was though."
They both giggled.
"Are you mad at Austin?"
"I'm not quite sure. I am trying to understand his view point but I don't know." Sam responded.
"Yeah I understand. Well we're gonna have a great night, without those two knuckle heads. We've done it before. We'll do it again." Madison said
"Heck yeah we can and will." Sam said then laughed. "I miss Austin." she said after her laughter died down.
"No. We'll have none of that. Its best friend time right now."
"Ok."
Realizing Reality
Sam did a quick stretch and started on her onion rings. Madison mirrored her movements and went to work on her chili cheese fries. They had only finished their burgers 3 minutes ago.
"Oh." Madison moaned out. "I don't know how I went without these for so long."
"Me either." Sam laughed out while watching her friend make passionate love faces at her food. It would never get old. Every time Madison ate at the diner or had diner food, her soul got happy. "Save me some stingy."
"Oh. My. Gosh." Madison said zoned out over Sam's shoulder, her fork stopped midway to its destination. "Sam don't freak out or shut down ok? We're still going to have a great night ok?"
"Okay." Sam drawled out.
Next thing Sam heard was "Hey Baby." And Toby leaned down and kissed Madison. Sam smiled her brother and her best friend, were just too darn cute. Then Toby reached over and hugged Sam and took a seat next to her.
"Tobz, you made it bro!" Sam said with a huge smile.
"Sis, everyone is here."
"Everyone?" Sam raised an eyebrow.
"Yes, everyone. And Shelby has been by his side all night. And what's pissing me off is that he isn't saying a damn thing to refute her."
Just then the diner bell rang and it was instantly filled with loud and live chatter.
Sam dipped an onion ring into her bar- b- q sauce then into her ranch. She had a slight frown on her face, and eyes filled with confusion.
"Do you want to go now Mamantha?"
"No Sadison, not yet." Sam answered aware of her brother's slight frown at the thought of them leaving. She didn't want to be the party pooper.
"You alright babygirl?" Rhonda asked with a knowing glint in her eye.
She knew very well Sam was not okay. However when Sam smiled a smile that hardly reached her eyes, and nodded her head Rhonda was forced to let it go. She made her way back to her station.
"So how has your night been?" Toby tried.
"Good." Sam replied.
"It has been awesome baby; filled with lots of laughs and great food. Right, Mammy?" Madison asked giving Sam a huge encouraging smile.
In that moment Sam decided that it had been a great night so far, Madison was right. She smiled back.
"Right, Sadi." Sam giggled, then turned to Toby "Your girlfriend here was eating like she was a big fat pig though, Tobz."
Madison gasped and then shoved a mouthful of chili cheese fries in her mouth ; then made another love face at it causing Sam and Toby to burst out laughing.
"I see." Toby agreed.
"Baby!" Madison said appalled.
"I was just kidding." He said.
"So was I, Sadi." Sam added still giggling.
"Trouble coming this way." Madison said then said " And you both weren't kidding."
"Were too." They said Sam still giggling and Toby chuckling.
"Liars."
"Tell me Toby, does she make love faces at you that way?" Sam asked in a fit of giggles now.
"I'd like to say yes but I'm not sure."
"Oh come on you guys." Madison said. "You both know it's like an orgasm in your mouth."
Sam and Tony stared at her. She had truly sat herself up this time.
"So Sadi, my dear best friend tell me, who gives the better" Sam started with a smirk.
"Sam don't you dare!" Madison said, smirking right back at Sam.
"Fine sleepover question." Sam said with a knowing smile.
"A-hem."
They had been so absorbed in their conversation they forgot about the trouble. Now standing at the head of the table was Austin and the head cheer leader. All laughter at the table died out.
"Hey guys." Austin said.
There was an awkward silence.
Sam had become increasingly interested in the design on the table top. Austin was looking at her. Toby was staring, ok well glaring at Austin. Madison was looking at Toby trying to convey a message to calm down. And Shelby was looking at Madison.
Rhonda appeared at the table and sat a chocolate shake in front of Sam.
"Hey Son." Rhonda said breaking the all too loud silence.
"Evening mom." He said, eyes still on his love.
"Yo Austin," Someone yelled over from his table.
"We'll be over in a minute." Shelby yelled back.
"Sam." Austin said.
"Austin we should get back." Shelby said.
"Well I'll be back," He said to no one in particular "over there in a minute." Shelby seemed to get the message, she hesitated for 2 seconds then went back over to her group.
"Bro, can I" Austin didn't finish his sentence. He knew he didn't have to. Austin saw Toby struggling; the big brother in him wanted Austin nowhere near his little sister, but the best friend wanted them to work things out. Finally Toby moved to sit next to Madison.
Austin took the seat next to Sam and gave her his full attention. He briefly heard Toby strike up a conversation with Madison to give him and Sam a little privacy.
"Samarie?" Austin tried again.
Sam just stared at the table top.
"Baby, talk to me."
Sam finally turned to Austin. No light in her eyes, no smile to light up her face, she looked hunted and hurt. "Shelby is," she closed her mouth and squeezed her eyes shut before she said something she'd regret. Then she tried again, she opened her eyes, and very tightly said "Shelby and the others are waiting for you, football captain." Then she went back to staring at the table top.
"Sam, I" Austin tried.
"Go." She said barely above a whisper.
"What?" Austin said shocked. "No I"
"Just go." She said firmly, causing Austin to stand and stare.
Matter of fact everyone at the table was staring at Sam.
Finally Madison started to gather her things and signaled Rhonda for the check.
Sam stared at her chocolate shake. Then she heard Toby say to Austin that they should get back. Sam glanced up and saw Toby kiss Madison's temple and heard him tell her he loved her.
"Madi, stay. I'll just go spend time with Rhonda while I finish my shake and head home for the night." Sam said then she grabbed her stuff and the shake and walked to the back of the restaurant.
It wasn't too long after that Austin's car sped out of the parking lot.
"Alright, so you want to tell me what the hell is going through you rabid ass mind?" Madison ground out at Austin.
"I have an image to keep up." Austin said glaring. "Something you know very well about, don't you little sis?"
"Hold up, bro, Tech. Don't talk to my girl like that."
Austin held up his hands in apology.
"Austin." Shelby yelled, in true Shelby fashion.
"We'd better get over there." Austin said.
"Naw, just tell me when you're ready to go." Toby glared at Austin wondering what the answer to his girlfriends question was.
Austin shook his head as he walked away this just wasn't his night.
Realizing Reality
Sam was fast asleep when Austin climbed into their bed. He reached out and held her. At first Sam snuggled into his arms and relaxed. Austin was halfway to sleep when she tensed and said "You smell like her."
"Well I was with her all night, Sam." Austin said with closed eyes.
He had had a long night. He just wanted to hold the love of his life and rest. He didn't want to argue.
"Oh well I guess that makes it better." Sam said. Seems she had a different plan. "How was the party, football captain?"
"I'm Austin here, Sam. Please, I don't want to fight are argue."
Sam turned in his arms to look at him. He looked stressed and tired, in need of rest, he opened his eyes and they looked troubled.
"What happened tonight Austin?" Sam asked him quietly.
Austin tensed and a flash of guilt went through his eyes.
"What did you do?"
"I didn't do anything baby, now can I please hold you and go to sleep?" Austin responded.
"Do you promise nothing happened?"
"I promise."
"Ok." Sam said turning back to her original position.
Long after Austin was sleep and his snores quieted down, Sam still lay awake, something nagging at her mind. She knew something had happened, something that could jeopardize the relationship. She felt it. But for now she would just enjoy being in his arms, she felt that it'd be awhile before she was in them again after tonight. So she just relaxed, she was in the calm right before a major storm.
