Can You Save Me? { Sam Pottorff }

Chapter 76 ~ you're Sam's girlfriend?

so no one gets confused, this is about a week after the last few chapters.

Marley's P.O.V.

I feel the tugging at the back of my shirt and I open my eyes as it stops. I roll around, rubbing my eyes because everything just looks dark.

"Daddy." He whispers.

"Jake?" I look down and see him standing on the side of the bed. "Another bad dream?"

"Yes.. I'm sorry." He looks down and sniffles. "It was just really more scary this time."

"Come on." I lift him the few inches he needs for him to bring himself up onto the bed. He lies next to me like he's done the last few nights and grabs my arm to wrap around him. I rest my chin on his head and wait for him to start explaining.

"Are you going to tell mommy?" He asks. "I don't want her to think I'm a cry baby."

"I won't tell her you cried, but I have to tell her everything else." I close my eyes, but without the intention of going back to sleep. "She wouldn't ever call you a cry baby though."

"I saw the bad man again.. The one that tried to take mommy from me." He says quietly. "He looked so mad and mean. I yelled at him to stop. He didn't."

"I'm sorry, Jake." I try to hold back the emotions. "He can't hurt you anymore." I am saying that based on by what I hope. I know he's talking about Sam.. Sam's unpredictable at the moment and no one knows what to expect from him next.

"Are you sure?" He asks.

How do I tell him no? I can't say yes. The last thing I need is for him to think I'm a liar when I knew I could have said something to answer his question truthfully and move on to the next.

"I'm really not sure, Jake. I can't always be there like that day with the bad man." I mumble. "I don't think I can go back to sleep. Can you?" I think the best thing I can do is distract him.

"No." I hear another sniffle from him.

I'm not completely oriented with everything when I sit up. I pick him up as if he were a baby close to my chest to make sure I don't drop him. I look towards the window and see sunlight peeking through the curtains so it must be early and acceptable time to wake up. I carry Jake down the stairs with Niña hot on our tail. She runs out the doggy door to the backyard and we go into the living room. We could have done this in my room, but I didn't want to risk waking up the girls. I lay down with him lying on my chest like Jazmin had done not so long ago, and watch him watch whatever cartoon is actually on right now. It's eight. Everyone else should be waking up soon anyways.

Jazmin's P.O.V.

I wake up with an empty feeling. I look to my side and see nothing. The spot where he was is somewhat warm. As much as I want to get up and find where him and, I look over to see Charlotte in bed alone, Jake ran off to again, I'm too tired. I know they're probably just hanging out downstairs.

Marley's hand me down phone is constantly reminding me of what I did to my other one. I ignore the usual things and go to do my daily stalking. Catching up with most of the boys lives, seeing what they're up to, but mostly seeing how bored they are.
