"Lets Be Us Again" – Lonestar

Chapter 6

Sami knew what she needed to do, she needed to fight, show him that they were worth fighting for and that she was foolish to throw away what they had. Yes, part of her was still angry about the way things ended and how their wedding day turned out. But it wasn't that he was a Dimera that was causing the pain, it was that he didn't trust her enough to tell her the truth.

TELL ME WHAT I HAVE TO DO TONIGHT

CAUSE I'D DO ANYTHING TO MAKE IT RIGHT

LETS BE US AGAIN

"All you had to do was tell me and I would have put it past us. I would have been mad at first, but I would still be with you." She said and decided to go to Mythic and hand deliver a message for Ej. Sami made it a habit to call his cell phone daily, but only to have the same message: This phone is no longer in service, play back at her and make her hate technology. However, after a month of unanswered messages and a secretary who she knew was ignoring her calls, she decided to go down and see the staff face to face. Maybe even go to his office to see if there was a clue about his location.

SORRY FOR THE WAY I LOST MY HEAD

I DON'T KNOW WHY I SAID THE THINGS I SAID

LET'S BE US AGAIN

Sami walked into the offices and went to walk past the secretary who stopped her and told her that she was not allowed to head to the back unless she was on the list.

"Look, I have called here everyday for the past month leaving message's for Mr. Wells and he had yet to get one. Now, I am sure you know who I am, and you know that he would return my message if he got them. Get out of my way."

"I wouldn't head to his office, Tony has taken over his job now and we both know how he feels about you." Kate Roberts said as she told the secretary that she would handle Sami.

"Kate, now I know we have had our differences, but that was mainly about your sons. From what I hear they are both Sami Free so would you like to tell me where Ej is so I can keep it that way?"

"No! Why would I do anything to help you?"

"Fine, I'll just go find Lucas, I heard he's pretty torn up about his divorce with Carrie, I'm sure he could use a friend." Sami said, knowing that Kate would do anything to keep her away from Lucas.

"Look I don't know where he is, Tony has taken over his job and no one speaks to him. I pass any messages to Tony and Tony gives them to Ej. No email or phone calls, it's like he on a deserted island. If you want to find him then you need to go to Stephano or Tony, they're the only ones that can tell you."

"Good girl Kate." Sami said and headed back to Tony's office, knowing there was something there that could help.

HERE I STAND,

WITH EVERYTHING TO LOSE AND ALL I KNOW IS I DON'T EVER WANNA SEE THE END

BABY PLEASE I'M REACHING OUT FOR YOU

WON'T YOU OPEN UP YOUR HEART AND LET ME COME BACK IN

LETS BE US AGAIN

Sami started going through the drawers first, looking for a scrap of paper with an address, or a hotel key. Anything that could help her, but there was nothing.

"Come on, there has to be something to help me, something to tell me where you are, I know you wouldn't just leave without anyone knowing how to find you." She said to herself and continued her search. Sami rifled through all the papers on his desk and looked around for an address book, but just as she found one Tony came into the room and she had to duck under the desk. "Damn it, why did he have to come back now!" She said as she dove under, hoping he didn't see her.

LOOK AT ME, I'M WAY PAST PRIDE

ISN'T THERE SOME WAY THAT WE CAN TRY TO BE US AGAIN

EVEN IF IT TAKES AWHILE I'LL WAIT RIGHT HERE UNTIL I SEE THAT SMILE

THAT SAYS WE'S US AGAIN

Tony sat in his chair without even looking at the way his office was different from the way he left it. He quickly got on a phone and Sami knew it was Ej. She wanted nothing more then to grab the phone from him or call out his name, but something told her not to. Something in the look on Tony's face assured her that it would not end well.

AND HERE I STAND WITH EVERYTHING TO LOSE AND ALL I KNOW IS I DON'T WANNA EVER SEE THE END

BABY PLEASE I'M REACHING OUT FOR YOU

WON'T YOU OPEN UP YOUR HEART AND LET ME COME BACK IN

LETS BE US AGAIN

As Tony talked to Ej, she never heard her name mentioned and she wasn't sure that Ej still wanted her. If he really wanted her, wouldn't he ask Tony how she was? If she was seeing anybody? How she looked? Something about their conversation scared her, until the end. When she knew that Tony was avoiding something, avoiding a subject and she just prayed it was her. That thought, the thought that Ej was asking about her, that gave her hope and the courage to do what was necessary. She decided to go see Stephano at the mansion and demand to know where Ej was. Stephano did want his son to be happy, she knew that much about him and she knew that no one could make him happy like she could.

BABY, BABY WHAT WOULD I

CAN'T IMAGINE LIFE WITHOUT YOU

HERE I STAND WITH EVERYTHING TO LOOSE AND ALL I KNOW IS I DON'T WANNA EVER SEE THE END

When Tony left the office, she snuck out and headed home, smiling for the first time at knowing her plan would work.

BABY PLEASE I'M REACHING OUT FOR YOU WON'T YOU OPEN UP YOUR HEART AND LET ME COME BACK IN

HERE I AM I'M REACHING OUT FOR YOU SO WON'T YOU OPEN UP YOUR HEART AND LET ME COME BACK IN

"I'm coming Ej, I just wish I knew where to go and didn't have to go through your father to get you. Just know I'm coming! We'll be us again, I just need to prove myself first." She said and headed home to get ready, she needed to be sure of herself if she was ever going to tango with Stephano, he was never her biggest fan.

LETS BE US AGAIN

OHH LETS BE US AGIN
