Sam's alarm went off at six o'clock and she got up and pulled jean shorts on and went into the bathroom. She washed her face and pulled her hair back. She looked at her reflection. Some light freckles were sprinkled across her nose. Her face was clear and slightly tan and her hair was just a straight reddish-brown.
She walked downstairs and began to do barn work. The horses were now staying outside all night because it was warming up and it was almost May. Sam filled up the water troughs and cleaned up pens. She threw some random flakes of hay into the field for the horses to munch on. Then she went back into the house and took a shower and dressed for school. On the bus ride Jen and Sam sat together.
"What'd you guys do?" Asked Jen.
"We didn't really do much, he just kissed me and gave me a cigarette."
"Oh, and are you a stoner now?"
"No way Jen, I didn't like it at all, and I know you've tried some alcohol with Ryan too."
"Ok, maybe a little, but Sam, just be careful, and don't start smoking."
"I won't Jen." Said Sam.
School was the same as every other day. Josh invited Sam to come over again the next weekend. Sam said no, and maybe some other time.
The rest of May went by very fast. School ended for the year in the beginning of June. Josh was having a party again. He offered to pick Sam up.
Sam shrugged. They were outside standing in front of the school, it had just ended.
"Come on, it will be fun." He put his hand on her arm, "lets go," he began to pull her towards his van.
"Dude let go of me!" Sam Said, jerking her arm backwards.
"Ok. Ok, I'm sorry." He said, dropping her arm. He went to stand in front of her, gently took her shoulders and softly kissed her on the lips. He got down gracefully on one knee. "Sam, I really have started to like you a lot. It would be great if you decided to join me tonight at my party."
Sam looked down at him. She chuckled. "Just get up and stop looking like an idiot and ill come." She said.
Josh jumped up, "great!" he said and they walked to his truck together.
