Prompt: What if when Sam came back for Tara her ex girlfriend got attacked

Sam's pov
———————————————————————————
Tara's doctor was giving her a check up when I got the call. I look at my phone and see that it's an unknown number. I hesitantly answer the phone.

"You should have listened to my warning Samantha." I hear the menacing voice of ghost face. "No." I say quietly. "Yes, and it's all your fault. You are a selfish bitch. I warned you that I would hurt someone close to you, but you didn't listen, maybe you should check on your precious Abby." He says before hanging up.

"What's wrong Sam?" Tara asks concerned. "He got Abby." I whisper while a tear slides down my face. "I'm sorry but uhhh whose Abby?" Richie, my best friend asks. "She's my umm ex." I say while more tears slide down my face. I'm about to try calling her when I get another call from an unknown number.

"Hello." I say fed up with this bull shit. "Hi is this Samantha Carpenter?" A lady asks from the other side of the phone. "Uhh yes this is she. How can I help you?" I ask confused. "I hate to inform you but your girlfriend Abby had been attacked and is in the Woods Berrow(???) hospital. You are her emergency contact so I thought I would call you the second we got her put into a room." She says. "Okay I'll head to the front desk soon." I tell her before hanging up.

"I have to head down to the lobby, Abby is here and I'm her emergency contact so they need me there. I'll be back as soon as I can." I tell Tara before leaving her room.

I make it to the lobby and ask for Abby's room. They tell me that is room 314. Huh, the room right next to my sister. I make my way to Abby's room. When I get there I knock on the door before opening it.

I walk all the way into her room and my heart breaks. She is hooked up to all kinds of machines.

Why did this have to happen to her I think to myself.

I walk over to her bed and grab a chair to sit on. I gently grab her hand and hold it. After a few minutes a doctor walks in.

"Hello, you must be Ms. Carpenter." The doctor says. "Uhh, yes." I say. "I'm here to give you the basic information about her condition." The doctor says while looking down at his chart. "Okay first we have a big gash from her left shoulder all the way to her right hip. Next we have quite a few stab wounds, 10 to be exact. Finally we have her broken bones; she ended up with a few broken ribs, a broken tailbone, a broken foot, and a fractured femur." The doctor say before taking a piece of paper out of the chart. "This will help you when needing to clean both the wounds and herself." The doctor says before walking out.

"God I'm so sorry Abby. This is all my fault." I say while crying. As I'm crying I feel her hand squeeze mine. I quickly look up to see her looking at me.

"Oh my god Abby, your awake." I say with tears in my eyes. "Sam?" She asks confused. "Yeah it's me, god Abby I'm so sorry about everything." I say while sobbing. "Hey Sam, Sam look at me... it's not your fault some psycho attacked me, and if your talking about when you left that isn't your fault either." She says while whipping my tears.

"But it is. The person who attacked you called me an made me pick... he said he was going to gut Tara in front of me if I didn't pick... if I knew it would've been you they picked I would've fought harder." I say while crying into my hands. "Hey it's okay, I'm a fighter, is Tara okay?" She asks while rubbing my arm softly.

"Yes, god I should be asking you if your okay." I say while taking her hand back into mine. "Hey I'm fine, I'm a little banged up, but I'm good." She says while squeezing my hand.

We sit like this for a few minutes before we hear a knock on the door. "Come in." Abby says quietly. The door pushes open and Tara wheels herself in. "My favorite Carpenter." Abby says while opening her arms a little. "Hey." I say jokingly. "My favorite gay." Tara says back. "Hey." Abby says.

"You okay." Tara asks her quietly when she makes it to her bed. "Yeah I'm good, you okay?" Abby asks. "I'm good." Tara replies.

"Uhhh, high I'm Richie." "High I'm Abby." I look over at Richie to find him glaring at Abby.

What is his problem I think to myself.

I look at Abby when she squeezes my hand. "Yes?" I ask her. "I'm hungry." She says. "Richie would you mind staying with Tara and Abby while I get us something to eat." I ask him. When he nods his head I stand up and walk out of the room.

As I get to the cafeteria I feel a hand grip mine. I turn around quickly and see sheriff Judy. "Can I help you?" I ask her wanting to know why she just grab my arm. "We found out who attacked Abby Stone." She says while pulling me into a supply closet.

"Judy what are we doing in here." I ask annoyed. "How we'll do you know Richie?" She asks completely ignoring me. "Wha... you think it was him?" I ask completely bewildered. "Sam someone saw him. Before you ask they showed us footage. He attacked her and took his mask off so she would know. Why he did that I have no idea, but it's important you tell me where he is." She informs me.

I look at her before it sinks in. I left him alone with Tara and Abby. I quickly leave the room with Judy hot on my tail. I run up the stairs and burst into Abby's room.

"Are you okay?" Richie asks. "Yeah, I just realized that I can't leave Abby in case the doctors need to talk to me." I say while walking over to my previous
spot. "Can you go and get some food instead?" I ask Richie knowing that Judy is on the other side of the door waiting for him to come out.

"Uhh, sure I guess." He says before standing up. "Anything specific you want." He asks us all. When we shrug he rolls his eyes and walks out the door. "Put you hands in the air." I hear Judy say from the other side of the door.

*20 minutes later*

"So you mean to tell me that he attacked me because he was jealous that Sam still liked me and kept rejecting him?" Abby asks. "Yeah pretty much." Judy says. "Huh." Abby mumbles.

After Judy leaves a nurse takes Tara back to her room. I get up to leave figuring Abby needs time to process everything but I'm stopped by her grabbing my wrist. "Sam, I just thought I would let you know that I still have feelings for you." She says while squinting her eyes. "Your so high right now." I say while laughing a little.

"No I'm not... okay maybe I'm a little high." She giggles out. I let out a little chuckle before telling her to get some sleep.

Let's just say when she woke up the next morning we talked and got back together.

Y'all sorry the ending sucks I just couldn't figure out how to end this.

I just thought I would make this clear that Richie was the only killer in this story.
