"Hole" – Kelly Clarkson

Chapter 11

TIRED

OF EVERYTHING AROUND ME

I SMILE

BUT I DON'T FEEL A THING NOW

Samantha lay on her bed after watching a tape of her funeral and spent the next night crying. Knowing that her son loved her was the one thing that came to a surprise to her. She just wished she had the time to tell him everything she always knew she should. But Ej, what he said meant just as much because it made her remember the man she fell in love with and that was everything to her.

I'M SO FAR FROM WHERE I NEED TO BE

I'VE GIVEN UP ON FAITH, ON EVERYTHING

ALL I WANT, ALL I NEED

IS SOME PEACE

Sami tried her best to pull herself together. She needed to stay calm and collected. That was the only way to get out of the mess she was in. There was no way around it, she would always be connected to the Dimera's, but she never thought they would go after her. Ej would never allow this and she could tell from the funeral tape that he didn't know. He had no clue what they had done to her.

"I knew you still loved me. I just wish it didn't take this to make me see what we really had. I know you can find me, I have faith in that. Come back to me." She said and reached to touch the monitor as he walked into the den and she seen his face. She knew doing anything but cry was impossible now. It had been days since she was kidnapped and all she could do was sit and cry. Tony would visit as little as possible and left Bart to do all the delivering to her.

THERE'S A HOLE

INSIDE OF ME

IT'S SO COLD

SLOWLY KILLING ME

"Look Sami, I'd love to let you go but we both know it's not possible."

"Why because Ej will kill you when he finds out?" She said and thought to what she now knew. Stephano had orchestrated all of this to keep them apart in an attempt to get his son back. She knew that when she got out she would have to tell him the truth, she couldn't lie anymore, especially not to him! Not that he wouldn't have seen through it.

SECRETS

EATING AT THE CORE OF ME

SHUT OFF

TRUSTING ALL THE LIES I BREATHE

"Well ya. Tony would yell at me and Stephano would threaten to shoot me, but Ej is a different story. He loves you more than we ever thought. This is really going to kill him when he finds out what his family did, I just hope you will tell him to go easy on me because I've been nice to you. Stephano will let you go home eventually, he always does."

"What makes you think that I can control him? And when will I get out, after Ej finds someone new?" She said and headed back to bed, thinking of Ej with anyone but her terrified her. She knew she could never handle it.

"Sami, Ej wasn't suppose to fall in love with you. Love is not something the Dimera's do because it always leads to problems. Stephano got sloppy when he fell for you mother, Tony when he fell in love with Anna. But Ej was the worst because when he fell for you he wanted to give up the family and that couldn't happen. You don't walk away from the Dimera family, not until you are buried six feet under. Stephano wasn't willing to let his son walk away."

I'M SO FAR FROM WHERE I NEED TO BE

I'VE GIVEN UP ON FAITH, ON EVERYTHING

ALLI WANTED, ALL I NEEDED

WAS SOME PEACE

"He'll never be that man again, I know that in my heart. He is still angry at Stephano for stopping our wedding and humiliating me in front of the entire town."

"Ya, but that anger is now aimed at Victor and Stephano is a means to revenge for him."

"Victor? Wait what does Victor have to do with any of this?"

"He was the one that ordered the hit on you Sami. As far as Ej knows, Victor is the reason you were taken away."

"So Ej thinks Victor kept my messages away too? Because we both know that is only going to make things worse. I hope that secretary gets out of dodge, he will be on the war path thinking he lost his chance to fix things. To save me!" She said and took a bite of toast off the tray. But the satisfaction she got from scaring Bart just made her feel worse when she realized where she was, in a prison!

THERE'S A HOLE

INSIDE OF ME

IT'S SO DAMN COLD

SLOWLY KILLING ME

"Lets just say that he hasn't found out yet. Or at least I don't have knowledge of it." Bart said and paused when he heard a door slam. "That can't be good. I'm going to have to leave you for a while darling. But don't worry I will be back with dinner and some fresh sheets."

SINKING EVER SO SLOWLY

SO FAR FROM WHERE I SHOULD BE

NO HANDS REACHING OUT FOR ME

HELP ME, HELP ME

"About that, can I have some clothes? Three days crying in a cell makes you want to get a shower." She said and sat back down on the edge of the bed.

SOMETHING'S GONE

I CAN FEEL IT

IT'S ALL WRONG

I'M SO SICK OF THIS

"Closet is over here, surprised you haven't found it before." Bart said and left the room where Sami went over to the television to get an idea of what the banging was. Then she seen it, Ej was storming through the house looking for Tony and she could tell he found out about the messages.

"He'll find me, he won't leave me here." She said and touched his face on the screen. "He'll find me, he has to." She said and looked at him, she was starting to see what her death did to him. He looked like he hadn't slept in days and she knew it was because of her.

THERE'S A HOLD

INSIDE OF ME

IT'S SO COLD

SLOWLY KILLING ME

THERE'S A HOLE

INSIDE OF ME

IT'S SO DAMN COLD

SLOWLY KILLING ME

"I swear to God, when I get out of here Stephano is going to pay for this, for what he did to both of us." She said and threw a pillow across the room. She headed to the bathroom but turned to see Ej one more time, but his face was different. Gone were the calm collected expressions he used to wear, the only thing left was anger, pure bitter hatred!
