it's you, it's always been you

chapter 51

"I understand. Now that I thought about it more. Why you kept it from me. It really fucking sucked when you lied to me when I asked you about it. But I get it. Just please don't lie to me again." Sam's fingers grazed across Deena's jaw as she spoke.

"I know. I'm sorry. I won't lie again, I promise. What happened with your mom?" Deena kissed Sam's forehead as she spoke.

"She was weirdly nice. Told me about everyone who talked to her about me and cancer. When I was leaving the house to go to you, she stopped me and I asked her how could she not visit me in the hospital for two months. Then I left before she would reply." Sam sighed as she thought about her mom not visiting her.

Deena thought about bringing up what else Sam said to her in the hallway but they were good again and Sam was doing okay, and Deena didn't want to make her upset again. But she was certain she was going to talk to Sam about it soon.

"When Olivia came over to get your pills, she said you were a great kisser. I mean I agree."

"She did what?! That bitch, wow. I'll kill her," Sam huffed.

"No, no killing. Maybe some slapping but no killing." Deena joked as she leaned in and kissed Sam.

"I love you so much, Deena. I meant it when I said I've never loved anyone before you, and I've never fell in love with anyone besides you." Sam spoke as she rested her forehead on Deena's.

Deena smiled at Sam, she loved every moment Sam talked about her feelings about Deena.

"I love you so much too. It's only been you for me too, Sam. And it will always be only you." Deena wrapped her arm around Sam's waist and pulled her closer.

After both of them not being able to sleep for hours without each other, they fell asleep quickly as their bodies were tangled together.
