Jingle Bell Rock Chapter 5: And I'm done, a sammy keyes fanfic

Tears were threatening to spill from Sammy's eyes. Did I do something wrong?

"You got me…a kitten?"

"Yeah. I know you still have Dorito and all, but I thought that maybe he'd like a friend to play with. And I dunno… I figured you could use a more lively cat. Not that Dorito isn't lively, he's just a bit older and this one is a girl. She kinda reminded me of you. Stubborn and wild."

Sammy looked up at me. "Casey Acosta… There are no words to describe how amazing you are." She threw her arms around my neck.

And you know what else? Joe can go screw himself.

Hm… I am a very possessive man. And kind of a manwhore. Trying to get Sammy to break up with Joe and all…

But Sammy's arms were embracing me right now. Not Joe's. So fuck that, yeah I hugged her back.

Then she pulled back and said "Wait here."

She was back in a flash with a box wrapped in Mario wrapping paper. I raised my eyebrows. "Mario?"

She scowled playfully. "I asked Billy to run to Wal-Mart to pick up wrapping paper. That kid is obsessed with Mario, okay?"

Billy said from the sofa, "I wrote a letter to Mario. It went like this. 'Dear Mario, you have such an epic mustache…'"

I tuned him out as I ripped off Mario's head. And inside was a brand new, black iPod Touch.

Sammy looked up at me. "Y'know… cuz Billy was hallucinating and thought that your old one was a Goomba and jumped on it."

Oh yeah.. -.-

I leaned down to kiss Sammy on the cheek. "I love it, Sams. Thank you."

She turned a deep pink. "Are you gonna tell me why you don't like Joe soon?"

Damn. She actually remembered. I frowned and said, "I'd rather not, but I promised. So later…"

She whined, "But I wanna know nowww. Then I can give him a reason why I'm breaking up with him instead of the 'I love someone else' excuse."

My chest tightened. "What?"

She looked at me like Did I just say that out loud?

She looked down. "Never mind…"

Damn, I can practically hear my heart deflating.

"Well… I just think that he only thinks of you as a prize, Sammy. Like you're something that you can rub in other people's faces."

She wrinkled her nose. "Who would be jealous of him?"

Me…

"Everyone, Sammy. Hell, I'm jealous. Sammy, I don't remember the last time he gave you a compliment about anything other than your looks. Not that you're not beautiful. You are, but if that's why he loves you, then there's something seriously wrong with him."

She looked down at her hands. "Why do I feel like that's not all?"

She asked for it. "Sammy, he got you drunk at the last Christmas party so he could take advantage of you."

"I know."

"And its not right, I- wait what?"

She said slowly, "I know. I'm not stupid, Casey. He gave me a drink and the next thing I know, I'm puking in your toilet." She grimaced. "Thanks for that, by the way."

I blinked at her. "The wheels in my head are slowly stopping. Why are you still with him?"

She shrugged. "I don't know. I was dealing with so much at the time. I really didn't have the time to worry about a pervy boyfriend. But that's not really why you hate him."

I sighed. "Do you really want me to say it, Sammy? That I was terribly jealous of that bastard and want you to leave him for me?"

Sammy shoved me. "Goddammit, if you told me that a few years ago, I wouldn't have had to put up with his shit for so long." She stood up and said, "Wait here." And went over to Joe. And he led her into her bedroom. Ohhhhh hellllllllllll noooooo.

I hope he doesn't think that they're getting any privacy cuz I'm going to go listen through the door right now.

The door is pretty solid though. I can only make out a few words.

"Joe… need to talk…"

"We… do…"

Somebody taps me on the shoulder from behind.

Marissa.

She hands me a water glass. What the hell?

She puts her ear on one end of her own cup and puts the other end on the door. Of course. I do the same with mine and I can hear a bit more clearly.

"What the fuck? You're breaking up with me?"

"It's…complicated. I just think that we should go our separate ways."

"You bitch. I can't believe this shit. Is this because of Acosta? Because whatever he told you is a lie."

"Casey had nothing to do with this. Leave him alone."

"Fuck this!"

And then a loud noise and silence.

I tried opening the door frantically. Shit. Locked.

Well, I'll just knock down the door. If that old dude from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit can do it, so can I.

I push Marissa out of the way, who's doing some kind of weird, nervous dance and back up to run into the door.

One: Its not as easy as it looks.

Two: Hurts like a bitch.

That's all I gotta say cuz when I see Joe pinning Sammy to the floor with one hand holding her arms above her head and another hand groping her. I see fucking red. And the freaking cherry on top is that he's shoving his tongue down her throat.

The next few minutes are a bit of a blur. All I remember is beating the crap out of Joe. That I remember and remember it well. Of course, I got hit a few times.

But the black eye, bloody nose, and knee to the groin were my Christmas presents to Joe. Non-refundable of course.

Sammy claimed she was fine. All she cared about was if I was okay. If I was okay.

All I got was a black eye. So she kissed my eye and then got a steak for me to put over it. And then Billy snatched up the steak and started to cook it. I really don't know WHY he wanted to eat it after it was on my eye, but he seasoned it well so who cares?

Right now, I was reveling in the moment. Sammy was mine now. She was with me. And not Joe.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowing and blowing up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

I looked up at Sammy. "We never got to finish our dance."

She smiled. "Then get up."

I stood and put my arms around her waist. I looked down at her in her little Christmas dress and smiled.

This amazing woman was finally with me.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air.

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go gliding in a one-horse sleigh
Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jingling feet
That's the jingle bell rock.

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancing and prancing in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air.

A/N: I feel so freaking accomplished. I'M DONE. And a day before I was supposed to! It was supposed to be longer but this is a Christmas story and it extends into New Years. But if I get enough reviews, I'll make the sequel…

Anyway, this is like a Christmas gift to all of you, cuz I love you guys soooooo much :)

So Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

If you don't celebrate Christmas, HAPPY HOLIDAYS

FELIZ NAVIDAD.

^^^ Best Spanish Christmas song ever.

I was listening to Jingle Bell Rock NON-FUCKING-STOP WHILE WRITING THIS. But I was listening to the one by PureNRG. Love that one.

Anyway, I'm rambling.

Happy Holidays :)
