Merry Christmas everyone. I seem to have found a spark in my mind for this story again! I hope to update again soon let me know what you think please! Any review is welcome! And I must apologize greatly for my grammer, I'm not very good at it... :)


The sunlight was way too bright even through the back of Tyler's eyelids the sun was blinding him. He rolled over slightly and snuggled into the pillow, it smelled so much like Sam... Wait Sam? Tyler shot up like a rocket looking frantically around the room. She was here last night wasn't she? It was too real to only be a dream or figment of his imagination. Tyler listened closely sighing as he heard to shower and a soft voice singing.

'She didn't leave…she's still hear. Calm down Ty. It wasn't a dream' Tyler thought relaxing, only slightly, but relaxing never the less.

"We only got
86 400 seconds in a day to
turn it all around or throw it all away
we gotta tell 'em that we love 'em
while we got the chance to say
gotta live like we're dying
live like we're dying
…"

Tyler smiled as she came to the end of the song and hoped out. He could hear the light thumping of her feet on the floor as she bustled around the bathroom. 'I really hope she doesn't put makeup on, she looks amazing the way she is' Tyler thought. Smiling as he saw Sam walk out of the bathroom texting with her hair still wet but partially pulled up. Still humming the tune from when she was in the shower. She must have written, he had found some of her other sheet music when she was gone. She adjusted the strap to the cami she had on while slipping her IPod into the back pocket of her white short shorts, totally paying no attention to Tyler.

"We never know a good thing till it's gone
you never see a crash until it's head on
all those people right when we're dead wrong
you never know a good thing till it's gone

Yeah... gotta start
lookin at the hand of the time we've been given here
this is all we got and we gotta start livin it
every second counts on a clock that's tickin'
gotta live like we're dying"

'She looks like a goddess. Sounds like one too' Tyler sighed, quietly he walked over to her, slipping his arms around her from behind. Immediately Sam tensed and looked into the mirror to see who it was, gasping when she saw Tyler. "Jeez Ty, you need to warn me. I almost just flipped you over my head!" Sam explained reminding herself to take deep breaths, everything was fine it was just Tyler.

Tyler smiled and nuzzled into her neck, Sam had relaxed by now a bit, yet you could tell she isn't extremely comfortable. "You weren't there, you promised to be there when I woke up." Tyler whispered in her ear sounding heartbroken.

Sam stood confused for a second until she remembered what happened last night. "Oh my gosh Tyler… I'm so sorry!" said whirling around to hug him. "I woke up and all I could think about was how I still smelled like underworld and demons."

"It's okay…" Tyler started.

"BABYGIRL!" Reid shouted from around the corner. Tyler sighed deeply, trust Reid to interrupt his time with Sam. Sam smiled at his fallen face and gently kissed his check, causing Tyler to beam.

"In my room Reid." Sam shouted as she heard him stomp by and turn around, Reid really needed to learn to lift his feet he sounded like an elephant.

This was of course one of the few things Sam had noticed and missed while she was gone. Caleb's smile, Reid's stomping, Kate's hyper-activeness, Pouge's leather smell and well everything about Tyler. Why did she trust Tyler, Caleb and the others so much? They were some of the few things that reminded her she has a family.

She missed coming home to Jamesy and Ryan running up to her with stories about their adventures during the day and them begging her to tell them one of her stories. They'd stay up all night until they hear done. She missed the thunderstorms when they would come running into her room to spend the night, because in their minds Auntie Sammy could always protect them. During a thunderstorm she woke up expecting them to come bursting through the door and then when they didn't she found herself running to Spike and Angel in tears. They always understood though, life was tough and it was the simple things Sam relied on to survive. She missed staying up late into the night talking with Sarah about all their fears and concerns, the ultimate and unacceptable fear of failure. Sarah was her sister no matter what anyone says, they've been through thick and thin together.

Or how she missed just talking to Kyle and hearing about the underworld and how not all creatures down there were evil, some just have nowhere else to go. Then there was always swimming with Maddie or arguing and acting like children with BQ. Running in the morning with the dog, Casey, and Seanie where she could express herself freely. Cry, scream, run, collapse, they were all things she could do with him and Seanie would never breathe a word of it. She missed having Dave and Millanie around, they kept here sane and grounded. She missed Piper's fussing and cooking, reading in the library with Liam where no words needed to be said, he understood she needed this. She even missed Kara, Kara was one thing that reminded her of what teenage life could and should be like, but it was something she could never have. However dwelling on those thoughts could really rack one's mind and staying sane becomes nearly impossible.

Suddenly Reid burst through the door running at Sam and flinging her around, immediately breaking out of her thoughtful trance. "Where the hell have you been!" he shouted at her. Sam smiled laughing and hugging him tighter, okay maybe she missed him yelling and complaining to.

"Reid share!" Kate yelled coming into the room and hugging Sam tightly. Sam smiled as Pogue came to hug her too.

"Things haven't been the same without you here Sammy."

"AUNTIE SAMMMY!" Little feet tamped on the floor as Ryan and Jamesy ran to Sam attaching themselves to her leg. "We missed you!" Ryan said.

"Aw… I missed you guys too." Sam said kneeling down so she could properly hug both of them.

"Sam." Liam said smiling.

"Hi." She responded, the both of them starring at each other. "Alright you may not like it but I'm hugging you anyways." Sam laughed running up to him.

"Samantha."

"Kara."

"Welcome back." Kara responded smiling and wrapping an arm around Liam. 'She's nice now' Sam thought making a mental note to ask Tyler about it later.

"Thanks. Where's Maddie?" Sam questioned, usually Maddie would have been the first one taking her to the ground.

"She left; about three weeks ago… we haven't seen her since." Caleb said coming into the room.

Sarah and Sam shared a look. Something was up, Sarah knew and Sam had a good idea what. Things were about to get interesting.

Kara sighed turning to the younger boys… "Come on guys, let's go make welcome back cookies for Sam." She said taking the now excited boys down stairs, winking at Sam as she went by.

"Millanie and Dave took off two weeks ago too." Liam sighed after Kara and the boys left the room. As far as they knew they were visiting Dave's aunt.

"Yeah… I know." Sam replied.

"What?" Sarah questioned, surprised by Sam's statement. There's no way she could know they left, Sarah didn't even find out until the next morning.

"Well…. You honestly didn't think those two just decided to leave right? They're training with Leo, Wyatt, and Chris. They spent a week helping Spike, Angel and me when we couldn't handle the scaber demons for some reason. These things were like macho. But yeah, they went to train and help me. Dave somehow figured out where I was and how to get in touch with me. Low and behold, I woke up to the both of them jumping on my bed." Sam answered smiling.

"I'm gonna kill them." BQ said.

"No you aren't, they made an unbreakable bond, well all five us did. They weren't allowed to tell you anything and we still aren't so don't even ask. And Kyle is down in the underworld with Paige looking into something."

"Jesus… what the hell is going on?" Liam Pogue questioned.

"And what the hell is an unbreakable bond?" Reid questioned.

"You can't break an unbreakable bond. " BQ started.

"No shit really?" Sarah questioned.

"Sarah shut up." BQ replied acting like a drama queen.

"Oh make me." Sarah joked sticking her tongue out at him.

"Real mature guys." Sam smiled, while everyone laughed, completely content for a moment.

"You know Sarah guys aren't allowed to hit girls let alone beat their ass." BQ joked.

"Oh I'd love to see you try." Sarah replied smoking.

"Um… I believe I did last night…" BQ started.

"Yeah and Sam kicked your ass!" Seanie yelled sending Sarah and Sam into a fit of giggles.

"Shhhh… I only lost focus because she made fun of the awesomeness of my gerbil!"

"IT WAS A HOT PINK RAT WITH A LONG ASS TAIL!" Sam yelled.

"Oh we really don't want to know." Kate said smiling.

"Anyway back on topic, what is an unbreakable bond?" Caleb asked hoping to get an answer this time around, lucky Sarah quietly responded.

"An unbreakable bond is like the strongest form of trust say you were using it for a secret like they are, people can be named who you can talk to about it but if you talk to anyone else about it you die. Plain and simple."

"But we have notification that the death is slow and painful, destroying the things you like most about yourself before throwing you into the worst imaginable pain anyone could ever experience." Liam stated slowly.

"And then…" Seanie started.

"And then you die." BQ finished almost at a whisper, looking sadly at Sam.

"Therefore, I really can't tell you what's going on…" Sam said sharing one last look with Sarah. Something was going to happen something only Sam could stop, but she'd need Sarah's help.
