Sam and Deena imagines

Crossing roads she never thought she'd cross

Deena got home after spending the afternoon with Sam. Suppose time got away from her because she found herself pulling into her driveway at almost 2 in the morning. 'Where the hell have you been.' a strong deep voice yelled at her. 

'I was out with a friend, I lost track of time.' Deena said. The man got up and wobbled, almost stumbling back on the couch. 'Thats all you got? Lost track of time? It's a school night and you know good and well your curfew is 11.'

'Funny you say that dad, seeing as you're never fucking home.' The man, clearly drunk, took a step towards her. 'You better watch how you speak to me.' Deena scoffed and backed away. 

'Why don't you drink some water? Sober up a little before you go lecturing ME on how to live MY life' 

'I TOLD YOU TO WATCH YOUR MOUTH' he shouted as he slammed his fist on a table. Deena flinched a little and backed up. She licked her teeth and clenched her fists getting ready to say something real nasty, but she remembered from past experiences that drunk and angry was never a good combo on this man in front of her. She eased her clenched fists and sighed. 'I'm gonna transfer to Sunnyvale.'

'Sunnyvale? And what makes you think you can fit in with those white entitled fucks?' 

'It isn't about fitting in,' Deena thought about her real reason for transferring, which was to be close to Sam. It's not like she was leaving anyone behind. Josh had plenty of friends now and all her friends.. didn't go there anymore. Instead of giving him her reasons she continued by saying 'It's about trying new things' The man looked at her puzzled and let out a loud belch. 

'Whatever D' With that he focused his eyes back to his sports and went for another sip of his vodka. 'Gonna get sober for you guys my ass' Deena said under her breath as she headed off for bed.

BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP 

'I'm up, I'm up' She said as she punched her alarm. She followed her morning routine per usual. Brushed her teeth, did her hair, ate some food, and did any homework she neglected to do the night before. 'Ah shoot I gotta get going' She started to her car. Once she got into the car she deeply thought about the choice she was making. 'Am I really going to transfer to Sunnyvale right now' She then remembered what almost happened to Sam. 'Fuck yeah'. She shifted the gear into reverse and backed out the driveway, then shifted it into drive and drove down to Shadyside to officiate her transfer.
