Chapter 12

"Uh, hi." Jake said jumping out of Sam's bed.

Jen walked into the room to see Sam. She was so worried about her that she couldn't wait. So she got up early this morning and told Ryan to drive her. "What are you doing here? Where is Sam?"

Sam came out of the bathroom to see Jen. She ran to her and Jen wrapped her protectively in a 'best friends only' kinda hug. Jake decided to leave them alone and went outside to the hallway. He leaned agaisnt the concrete wall and slid down until he was sitting on the floor.

Sam went into the bathroom and sighed. She really didn't have to go..She just didn't know what to do when she woke up in Jake's arms. It felt so good, yet seemed so wrong. She didn't really want to think about it right now anyways. She stepped out the door and saw Jen standing there frowning at Jake who was still in Sam's bed. She went straigt to Jen happy to see her. If anybody it was Jen who could help her through this all. Not her Dad, Byranna or Gram. Jen would help her right?

Jen walked into the hosptial room that the nurse pointed her to. She gasped when she saw Jake lying on the white bed. Where was Sam? She spotted her when she came out of the bathroom, Jake also noticed because he left shortly after. Once he was gone Jen talked to Sam.

"How are you feeling?" She asked.

"Pretty much the same. Look Jen I am so sorry about the other day." Sam sat back down on her bed and Jen sat on the chair.

"Nah its fine. So what do the doctors think? Sam this is serious!" Jen told her, pushing up her glasses to the bridge of her nose.

"You don't think I realize?" Sam sat up.

"I know you do, but what did the doctors say?"

"They did so many tests last night, then told me to sleep and the results would be in today." She said looking down at the bruise on her arm from the nurse looking for a vein. She winced remembering it.

"Where is you Dad? How long do you have to stay here?" Jen asked.

"My Dad went home last night. And I really have no idea. I think when the test results are in then I can go home."

"What if you are positive when the tests come back." Jen said softly.

Sam sniffed, determent not to cry. "I really don't know."

Jen leaned over to hug her.

Jake heard Sam sniff in the room, he stood up and peered in to see Sam hugging Jen again.

"Excuse me son." A older doctor entered Sam's room. Jake gulped. This was it.

"Hello Samantha." The doctor said as he walked into the room with a white clip board against his chest. He was about to say something else when Wyatt and Grace walked into the room with Jake close behind. Jen knew what was going on and thought it was more of a family thing to hear the news. So she gave Sam one more hug and left to go find Ryan.

"Ah, you must be the family," The doctor nodded to the Wyatt and Grace. Then looked at Jake standing in the corner. Wyatt nodded.

"Did she get the results?" He asked softly. Looking at Sam who was sitting on her bed.

The doctor nodded and looked threw some papers. "Yes, she did. I'm sorry Samantha but it is true. You are cancer positive. It hasn't spread to far. A tumor in your brain. But I would like you to start cemotherapy as soon as possible."

Sam paled. She had tears running down her face. Along with Grace. Wyatt looked pretty close as well. Sam started thinking about her coming back from her Aunt Sue's place, how Dad married Bryanna, Cody, Jake moving to college, them breaking up. It was all ok before. Well until now. Just when everything was getting back to normal.

And Jake just stood there stunned. Not knowing what to say or do except put his arms around her.
