NOTHING FEELS THE SAME

Chapter 3

1 day later 

"Gary, babe we're home" Sam told a silent, and if she were to guess, depressed Gary. He took off his seat belt and opened the door. Sam came running around the car to help him out. She could tell he was in a lot of pain as she helped him out. "Thanks" he squeezed out through clenched teeth.

They stood next to the car, Gary had his head rested on Sam's shoulder. The both had their arms wrapped around each other. "Thank you for this" "Gary don't even mention it, you would do the exact same thing for me, none of this is your fault, you didn't deserve this. If I find out who did this, I swear to god they will need a plane ticket to the end of the galaxy because you have no idea what I would do to them" Gary nodded in response and Sam's shoulder started to feel a little damp. She pulled Gary's face up and looked into his red puffy eyes, "come on then, lets get you inside and I'll run you a nice warm bath"

They walked into the massive house and headed straight up the stairs to the bedroom. It took quite some time to get Gary up them, every step he took seemed to hurt him. "Just go lie down while I set this up for you babe" Sam kissed him on the cheek then headed off into the bathroom. She turned on the taps to the luxury sized bath and let it fill, adding the medicinal salts provided by the doctor.

Gary lye down on his front on their massive bed. He closed his eyes in pain. He couldn't believe how much it hurt. Then it occurred to him, he was on his own, in a room, his back exposed. His body went stiff. He heard something move behind him.

"OH MY GOD, please no not again!! Leave me alone!! SAMM HELP MEE!!" He screamed with his eyes screwed shut. "Shhhhh, Gary sweetie, it's just me." Sam put her hand on his back and helped him into a sitting position, he winced as he sat flat. She tilted up his face to look at her. He was crying. 'Oh god, he's crying! He never cries' She thought. "What's up babe? You can tell me" she told him, softly running her hand over his back, her other hand on the side of his face, playing with the slightly overgrown stubble. "I- I thought that-" he sobbed loudly "it was him," he buried his face in her cleavage.

"It's ok, I'm not going to let anyone hurt you again, ever. Now come on, lets get you in the bath"
