Chapter 11

iHelp

~ * Freddie * ~

I wake up by a sound outside my apartment. I get up out of my bed and put on my robe. Sleepily I walk out of my bedroom and into the living room. My mom suddenly went away to go help my aunt in Fresno yesterday. And I am SO happy about it! I finally have the house for myself! For 5 days!

I unlock my door and look outside my apartment. On the ground there lies a girl, curled up in a ball, in a pool of blood. Oh my god! I walk over to the girl.

''Oh my goodness what…''

I cut off my sentence. The girl lying there, curled up in a ball, in a pool of blood, sobbing and shaking, is SAM! My heart starts beating faster as ever before. Oh my god what happened to her!?

''SAM!''

I run over to her and kneel down beside her. ''BABY! Baby can you hear me!?''

''F-Freddie…'' Sam weakly says.

Oh god this is BAD! I've NEVER seen Sam this way before! Sam Puckett, the tough unbroken girl had broke! Someone broke MY Sam!

''Baby I'm here, I'm here!'' I stroke Sam's hair and kiss the top of her head. Then I see the big wound on her stomach and realize all the blood's coming from there. Oh. My. God!

I pick Sam up and carry her inside my apartment, lying her down on the couch and running to the kitchen and grabbing a towel, I run back to her and hold the towel on the wound on Sam's stomach, trying to stop the bleeding.

I look into Sam's eyes. ''You're gonna be okay baby. I'll make sure you'll be okay!'' I kiss her forehead.

I swear I will KILL the person who did this to her! There will be no one who can hold me back! I will NOT let that person get away with whatever horrible thing he did to my Sam!

It absolutely kills me to see Sam like this. Her clothes are ripped apart and covered in blood. She has a black eye and bruises all over her face. Her nose and lip and bleeding and I can see the pure pain in her eyes.

After a while the wound on Sam's stomach finally stops bleeding. I can't believe it…it looks like someone has stabbed her right in the stomach!

I look at her extremely worried. ''Baby what happened?...we might need to go to the hospital,''

Sam shakes her head. ''N-no not the hospital..please..''

''But that wound Sam and your face..''

''I-I'll be okay..'' Sam says weekly.

I shake my head. ''I'll take care of you okay?''

Sam nods.

''I'm gonna need to disinfect and stitch your face babe…''

Sam swallows and then nods slowly. ''o-okay..''

I walk to the kitchen and grab the first aid kit, right now my over-protective mom who taught me all kind of nursery stuff was really handy.

I sit down on the kitchen table and take Sam's hand. ''This is gonna sting a lot, you can squeeze my hand as hard as you want.''

Sam bites her lip and nods.

I start disinfecting the bruises and blood stains on Sam's face. She doesn't even squeeze my hand one bit. God she's so brave!

''Okay, I'm gonna stitch your lip and this spot right here above your eyebrow okay? This can really hurt. But you're brave. Again, squeeze my hand as hard as you want!''

Sam nods.

I get the needle ready and carefully start stitching Sam's face, she winces and squeezes my hand and I rub hers with my thumb. ''Just a few more baby, almost done.''

I finish stitching Sam's face and kiss her forehead again. ''There, done. Great job baby.''

''Thanks.'' Sam says.

Only then I realize the big cut on Sam's throat. ''Holy shit!''

Sam looks down.

''I'm sorry babe I need to disinfect and stitch that too..''

Sam nods. ''alright.''

She takes a deep breath as I get the needle ready and I carefully stich the cut on her throat.

''Okay, all done.'' I smile slightly at Sam and she smiles back at me the same way. ''Thanks Freddie. I didn't know you could do all that!''

''My mom taught me. I guess there's still one good thing about her being so over-protective'' I wink at Sam and she chuckles. ''Yeah..''

I look at Sam seriously. ''Sam is there anything else I need to take care of?''

She looks down. ''Well…''

I wrap my arm around her. ''Come on Sam please tell me?...it can be really dangerous if we don't do anything!''

Sam sighs.

I run my hands up and down her back, trying to comfort her but Sam winces.

I look at her worried and then lift up the shirt by her back. ''Holly shit Sam!''

My mouth falls open in shock when I see Sam's back covered in cigarette burns, the one even worse than the other.

''These really need to be disinfected babe! I'm sorry..''

Sam sighs. ''it's fine just do it quickly. I've been through enough pain already today..''

It breaks my heart to hear her say that. I kiss her lips softly. ''You're safe now okay? I will always stay by your side from now on! I'll NEVER let anyone hurt you ever again!''

She smiles when I say that. ''Becoming a bad boy huh nub? I like it.'' She smirks.

I chuckle at her and peck her lips again. ''Good.''

After a few minutes I finish disinfecting the burns on Sam's back and I stand up off the couch.

''You wanna go to sleep now? You need to rest. You can tell me what happened tomorrow.''

Sam bites her lips and then nods. She looks at me surprised. ''Can I stay here?''

I look at her in shock. ''Of course! You don't think I'm gonna let you go like this right?''

Sam smiles. ''that's so sweet.'' She walks over to me and hugs me. ''Thank you so much Freddie…for everything!''

I hug her back and kiss the top of her head. ''Don't thank me baby.''

I pull away from the hug slightly awkward. ''So, I will eh…I'll just sleep on the couch tonight. You can sleep in my bed.'' I smile at Sam.

Sam shakes her head. ''I don't want you to.''

I frown at her, surprised. ''You wanna sleep on the couch?''

She shakes her head. ''No. I want you to sleep in the bed with me.''

I swallow. ''O-oh. Okay. You don't mind? I mean…y'know.''

Sam shakes her head again. ''No. I mean…unless you don't want to…'' She looks down.

I shake my head. ''Are you crazy? Of course I want to.''

I pick Sam up carefully and carry her to my bedroom, lying her down on the bed. I turn around to take off my shirt and smile when I turn back around and see Sam has already fallen asleep. The poor girl must be exhausted.

I really hope Sam will tell me what happened tomorrow. I need to know!

I get into the bed next to Sam and pull the covers over us. I kiss her cheek and smile at her, whispering. ''Good night beautiful.''

I wrap my arm around her and close my eyes, falling asleep slowly.

~ * Sam * ~

I wake up in the morning. I try to sit up in the bed, gosh my head hurts like hell! I get a flashback of everything that happened yesterday. I feel a stabbing pain in my stomach, ugh. I groan. I think back about last night. Freddie took such good care of me. I can't believe how sweet and caring he was. And the fact that he actually let me stay here, somebody has never done that for me before. He's SO sweet!

I slowly get up from the bed, holding my head and stomach. I walk to the kitchen to see Freddie, fully dressed already. Oh my gosh he's wearing 'the' jeans. The ones that fit his butt SO good! I stare at him. He's so hot! How can a guy be so hot and sweet and the same time? How can he be so perfect!?

Freddie smirks at me. ''You enjoying looking at my pants?''

I blush and walk over to him. ''Shut up nub.'' I smirk.

He chuckles at me, ''Ahh look that's my Sam again.''

I chuckle too.

Freddie walks over to me and kisses my cheek. ''You slept well?''

I smile and nod. ''Uhh huh.''

''Good.'' Freddie says, smiling. ''I made you a bacon sandwich.'' He winks at me and hands me a plate.

''Aww thanks babe!'' I smile and take the plate from him.

''Aren't you gonna eat it?''

I smirk at him. ''I want me some Freddie lips first.''

He smirks back at me and wraps his arms around my waist, kissing me.

I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him back passionately. God I love this guy. I love him SO much!

I yelp against Freddie's lips as he suddenly lifts me up and sits me down on the counter. He smirks against my lips as he continues kissing me passionately. I kiss him back the same way. Gosh I'll NEVER get enough of his lips!

He slowly pulls back after a few seconds and smirks. ''Now eat your breakfast.'' He winks at me.

I smirks back at him and take a big bite of my sandwich. Mmm another great quality about Freddie, he can make amazing food!

Freddie chuckles at me as I eat the sandwich eagerly.

I hop off the counter and walk towards Freddie, resting my head on his shoulder. ''So what are we gonna do today ?'' I smirk as I call him that.

Freddie looks at me seriously. ''Well, I actually hoped you're gonna tell me what happened.''

I sigh and look down. ''Do I have to?..''

Freddie nods and wraps his arms around me from behind. ''I need to make sure it never happens again baby!''

I sigh. ''Fine.. But I'm gonna take a shower and get dressed first okay?''

Freddie nods. ''Sure. I'll be here baby.''

I smile at Freddie and kiss his cheek before walking back to Freddie's room and into the bathroom. I take off my clothes and get in the shower. I let the hot water run over me. Fuck! I wince as the burns on my back and the cut on my throat really hurt. I quickly put shampoo in my hair and soap on my body and rinse it out.

I get out of the shower and dry myself, sighing. I don't want Freddie to know about my past. I don't want him to know about my problems, and mostly, I don't want him to get involved in my problems! But I know Freddie won't stop asking about it…I have to tell him what happened.

I get dressed and walk out of the shower, back to Freddie. He smiles and leads me to the couch. He sits down and pulls me on his lap. He looks at me sympathetically. ''Now baby, tell me what happened…it's okay. I'll listen. I'll help you. I won't judge you. I never will!''

I smile slightly at him. ''alright…''

I cuddle into Freddie and burry my head in his neck, taking a deep breath and starting to tell him everything.
