Everything I write I write for a reason, there is a method to my madness and it will play into later in the story. Sorry for the confusion.

"Alison and I had another thing in common out of the ordinary, our love of summers. It would have been a common thing if not for the reason why we loved it, we were in our favorite places in the summer, I came to forks to stay with my dad and fish went to stay with her aunt and uncle, her mom's brother, in the city. She used to live with them full time but... when her aunt died freshman year the court decided that her uncle couldn't raise her on his own. Sam told me once Alison was sad all the time freshman year she missed him so much. She always said 16 and out. She could go stay with them again. She always fights with her dad's sister, and basically the whole family. They have bratty kids and are always seen with a beer in their hand. I think I have it the best out of the 3 of us, and even my life isn't close to perfect." I suppressed a growl at the thought of why I hated to go home.

"I'm sorry your lives were so horrible. You didn't really tell me about Sam though. I hope things get better." He seemed genuinely hopeful.

I remembered once Fish and I were at Dino's house just hanging out when the phone rang. She immediately turned down the music and listened. Her grandmother was screaming into the phone.

"SAMANTHA! GET OUT HERE."

"Shit, COMING, don't make a sound. That means you fish just stay still."

Even in the other room we could hear the screaming. "She is just a little too comfortable with us in the house." I nodded my agreement. We heard Sam mumble a response and then heard the sound of skin to skin contact and more yelling. Sam came back into the room close to tears. A look of fierce determination in her eyes she said "You guys leave and I'll be out in 10, meet me at Wendy's, pretend like your going home."

We did as she told us but walked slowly down the block. From where we were we could see Sam climbing out the window. We exchanged a look; this was not going to turn out well.

That was in the beginning of freshman year. That was just the start of many shitfits that occurred between the family. Somewhere between then and the summer Sam was put on P.I.N.S. Person In Need of Supervision. They gave up the right to choose her disciplinary actions. She was the states responsibility now, she only lived with them. They enforced the rules not set them, if she broke them she could get taken away. Then in the beginning of sophomore year Sam met Peter. Not long after they had been dating Sam got in another row with her grandmother and walked out. Sam was missing for two days. She didn't come to school she didn't go home. She spent it with peter. When the cops finally picked her up she was sent to a group home for 3 days until they could have a meeting with a judge.

I had zoned off into my own little word. I could feel the tension in the room building from me not saying anything.

"sorry about that." I said sheepishly

"Its no problem. But who is Peter? I couldn't help but overhear you mention him on the phone before."

"He is Sam's evil boyfriend. He's possessive and controlling and..." I shuddered signaling my disgust. "If you wouldn't mind could we talk about something else?"

He smiled "no problem how about." DING. Oh I forgot about the dryer. "oh I almost forgot about that." I got up and quickly hurried over to the drier. I grabbed my clothes and brought the warm bundle to my face and inhaled. "Mmmm"

"I'm just going to go get changed so I can give you your close back and then we can go."

"You can borrow the close if you like they look kinda cute on you." I bushed

"Thank you but don't you need these for gym?"

"No from being on the team I practically have an entire closet of close in my locker."

I started walking back through the kitchen on the way discreetly grabbing a poptart.

After I was sure she was upstairs I smacked myself in the head. 'they look kinda cute on you' are you stupid Edward? Where did that come from? She's not interested in you why are you even trying? Ugg I'm starting to act my age, what has this girl done to me?

I AM SO SORRY this chapter took so long. I'm not going to bother telling you why because then it seems as though I'm making excuses.
