Love: Just a Word

Chapter Twelve

        When Sam finally got a clear to go back to school, it was around the end of November. Doctors thought Sam was going to do something, that her sister once did. Sam thought about it, but never put it in action. 

        Sam was able to get Nikki to turn in her stuff, and pick up everything that she would need. Nikki kept protesting against it, but Nikki would fail. 

        Sam walked into the school building, and everyone waved and tried to give her reasurring smiles, Sam even smled and waved back, though inside she didn't want to be here. She sat over by Nikki and Andrew. 

        Sam and Andrew started to hang out more, and shared information about the states and England. England was weird to Sam, and the states were weird to Andrew. Andrew even brought over some Fish 'n chips for Sam one day. 

        Sam who didn't like fish, liked the new dish. It wasn't like what they had here. It was much better. 

        Andrew gave Sam a hug and sat on the other side of her. Nikki passed over the juice like always and Sam drank it with in seconds.

        "Did you even taste it?" Andrew asked.

        "Yes, Apple juice. 100% juice. Man, are they lairs." Sam joked, she was right. That's what the package had said, but she was also right about it being far from 100% juice. 

        Andrew was surprised by it. "How did you know?"

        "I've had the same juice every single morning." Sam said, with a smile.

        "Oh." Andrew said, rubbing the back of his head. Nikki started to laugh, and Sam looked over to see that one of Nikki's friends was there. She was a new student Sam didn't get to met.

        "Hello, I'm Britteny." The girl said. The girl had wispy brown hair. "Nikki's old friend."

        "Hello, Britteny. I'm Sam." 

        The girl nodded, whispering something to Nikki and Nikki started to luagh before whispering something back.

        "Stop planning." Sam growled, she knew Nikki only whispered something when planning. Nikki shook her head and Britteny sat down.  Nikki handed a book to Sam.

        "Where did you find this?!" Sam asked, looking at the title. It was the first copy of Shiver. 

        "A little shop." 

        "Ebay?" Sam asked looking up.

        "No! The Author had it and needed some money and was selling it." 

        "Oh, how did you end up with it?" 

        "Mother thought I would like it, but hey. I don't like that book." Nikki said with a shrug. Sam hugged the book, than hugged the book, when the bell rang and Sam huried off to first peroid.
