Disclaimer: I only own my plot and the characters I created.

David's POV:

I have made the right decision. No more games, no more lies to her or myself. Only love. The love we have both been fighting for so long.

Sam was released from the hospital shortly after our reconciliation and we were all moved to a undisclosed location in the middle of nowhere. The city was no longer visible.

Dad and Governor Perry were discussing the conference we had originally shown up to attend. The conference would stay on track, beginning the following day. We were to act like nothing out of the oridinary is happening. If anyone ask about Mom, she is having a hard time with pollen allergies and is trying to recover. That was the story, no other.

I was sitting on the couch next to Sam. We had decided to wait for things to calm down before we overly affectionate in front of everyone else.

Another tape had come while we were at the hospital, this one worse than the last. The person responsible for the kidnapping of my mother had admitted that they had thought we would cave before now. They said that due to the "unfortunate accident" that had befallen a member of our group, they would extend the deadline on Mother's life. We had twelve hours. And most importantly, we were to take what happened to Sam as a warning sign that they were not playing around.

Sam put her hand on my knee and squeezed. I covered her hand with my own and gave her what I could muster of a smile.

Later, everyone poured out of the living room of the new house except Sam and myself. When she knew they were all out of sight, she straddled me in a flash and was kissing me ferociously. "I love you so much." she whispered as she broke our kiss. Something was creeping up on me and before I knew it, I was kissing her back passionately, my hands running over her body, in her hair. Swiftly, I picked her up and carried her up the stairs.

Sam's POV:

"Wow." I thought to myself. "Freakin' wow." I laid contently on David's chest, the smile never leaving my face. I had forgotten how great this was.

David looked down to see me still smiling. "Someone enjoy themselves much?" he asked, laughing.

My only response was to kiss him.

"Well I certainly think that's a yes." he stated.

I just went back to smiling.

We laid there for what felt like forever, talking about nothing in particular, just enjoying being with each other.

Then we heard a knock, followed by Misty's voice. "Guys! You have to come out! They found David's mother!"

Author's Note: Sorry it's short guys, but I figured I needed to update a little and that was all that I had written down. Promise to bring the next chapter soon, preferably this weekend.
