it's you, it's always been you

chapter 107

Sam's blood pressure rose too high after the call with Deena, that the doctors had to calm her down by giving her a low sedative.

Which Sam didn't fight, she wanted to not be awake and think about Deena and what Taylor said.

Deena tried calling Sam all night and all day, but Sam didn't answer.

She stayed in her room getting enraged at Taylor and Riley then breaking down again about Sam and how she wasn't talking to her because of them.

Josh tried to come in and talk to Deena but she wouldn't let him. Her dad even tried when he got home late at four am, but Deena didn't unlock her door to them.

When Deena didn't go to school Monday, Kate and Simon came over after school.

"Deena, unlock this door now. I need to see you." Kate said after pounding on the door loud enough she knew that Deena would woke up from it.

"Go away," Deena groaned.

"Seriously Deena, I am going to get the fire department to come here and take this door down. You know I will." Kate knocked harder on the door.

Deena knew that Kate would do exactly that, so she got up and unlocked the door then sat back on the edge of her bed and wiped the tears off her cheeks.

"Deena what happened? What's going on with Sam?"Simon said as soon as he opened the door.

"Fucking Taylor. Taylor and Riley. Taylor called Sam and convinced her that I have been cheating on her with Riley on and off this whole year. And now she's not answering any phone calls so I don't know how she is or if she's okay."

"What the fuck? Taylor did that after we talked to her Friday? That's fucked up. She's sick." Kate was as furious as Deena was.

"Did you talk to Sam? What did she say?" Simon sat on the bed next to Deena.

"She asked me about it. And Taylor told her that she saw us together in the band locker room and that Riley hugged me and kissed my cheek. And I told her it was true but it wasn't like that. I was just getting my stuff then Riley said sorry about Sam then hugged me and kissed my cheek in the same move quickly before I could even process it."

"Fuck. And we can't even go see Sam. She's probably doing even fucking worse now." Simon sighed.

"This isn't over. We aren't letting Taylor get away with this. Deena, Taylor called from her house to you right?" Kate asked.

"Yeah, why?"

"Perfect, I'm going to call her house and since she's only 17, I'm going to ask for one of her parents. Which I know their names thanks to being captain. And fuck with her. Then we are getting Sam to talk to you and proving them wrong, got it?"

"Sam won't even pick up the phone. There's no other way to get to her. She hates me now."

"No, she doesn't. She still loves you but she's hurt, because of Taylor and Riley. We just need proof and then get to Sam somehow. You'll get her back, D." Simon said before he wrapped his arm around Deena's shoulders and she didn't push him off her for once.

"Fuck it. Let's do whatever we have to. Ruin Taylor's life, I don't fucking care." Deena stood from her bed, "I have to get Sam back."

Kate redialed Taylor's phone number from Deena's caller ID on her phone.

"Hello, is Susan or Neil Goode there?" Kate tried to keep the most stern voice she could.

"Hi Mr. Goode, this is Karen at Union hospital. I have your daughter's results back. She is seventeen so I needed to speak with a guardian. She is pregnant. The next step she decides to take is important and we are here to help with the choice. Have her call us back and schedule an appointment. Thank you. Have a great day."

As soon as Kate hung up, Simon busted out laughing. Deena just groaned and buried her face in her hands.

"I've always wanted to do that to someone, but didn't hate anyone enough yet to do it to." Kate smirked and fixed her hair in Deena's mirror nearby. "Now it's time for Sam. We need to find Riley first."
