*Alyssa's POV*
I wake up to the sound of a door slamming. I roll over and look at the clock, 4am. Great. Sammy comes into my room.
"Do you want to go talk to him or should I?" Sam asks as he plops down on the bed next to me.
"I guess I should probably go talk to him."
"Okay well I'll be right here if you need me."
"Thanks Sam" I say as I place a kiss on his cheek.
I walk downstairs and see Jack digging through the fridge.
"Jack what are you doing?"
"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm trying to find some food. I'm starving."
"There's some leftover pizza on the middle shelf."
"Okay, thanks babe."
"Jack, we need to talk."
"About?"
"Just meet me in the living room when you're done."
"No, if you want to talk let's talk." he says with a stern voice.
"Fine."
I sit on the kitchen counter as Jack leans against it, eating pizza. I take a deep breath and let out a sigh I didn't know I was holding in.
"Babe what's going on?" Jack says with a concerned look on his face. He places his hand on my thigh.
"I think... I think we need to take a break for a while."
"A break? What the hell does that mean? Are you breaking up with me?"
"Jack look at you. You're a mess! You come home at 4 in the morning and then sleep all day! We hardly talk anymore. Jack I miss the guy I fell in love with. You're acting like you're old self again. And it scares me. You promised me you would never go back to the way you used to act. You broke your promise Jack and you know how I feel about people who break promises."
"Where is this coming from? Did Sam tell you to do this? Are you and him...Are you cheating on me with Sam? OF COURSE. I SHOULD'VE SEEN THIS COMING."
"Jack calm down. I'm not cheating on you. I can't believe you'd even think that."
Jack got really angry. I was so scared. I wanted to run up and get Sam but I knew that would piss Jack off even more.
"Don't tell me to calm down!" He screamed in my face.
I got up and tried to walk away but Jack grabbed my wrist.
"Jack let go of me!"
"Why are you doing this?" He asks.
"Look at yourself! You need help Jack!"
"Don't you dare try to tell me what I need!"
He grabs my wrist even harder and slams me up against the wall.
"Jack please!" I beg as he holds me up against the wall.
"Get your hands off of her before I'll call the cops" Sam says as he comes down the stairs.
"Sam this doesn't concern you. Go back upstairs" Jack yells.
"Doesn't concern me, my ass" Sam says harshly.
Sam comes down the stairs, grabs Jack and pins him up against the wall.
"Sam please don't hurt him."
"Alyssa, go upstairs" Sam says in a serious tone.
Now I'm terrified.
"Sam. Please."
"Alyssa, just go upstairs I'll handle this."
"Sam, I'm not going anywhere. Please don't do this."
Sam punches Jack in the face, and then let's him fall to the ground.
"SAM!" I yell.
"Don't you ever put your hands on Alyssa like that again."
I rush to Jack's side out of habit.
"Babe, I'm..." I start to say as I put my hand over his.
He pushes my hand away and gets up. His nose is bleeding and it looks like his mouth is too. I want to help him but I know that I shouldn't, so I just leave him alone.
"I'll call Nate and have him come get me. I'll come pick up the rest of my stuff tomorrow" Jack says as he walks out.
Sammy wraps his arm around me as I try and hold back the rest of my tears. Jack slams the door on his way out.
"I'm so sorry Alyssa. I shouldn't have left you alone with his drunk ass. He didn't hurt you did he?"
"No Sam. I'm just going to go back to bed."
"Okay. I'll come up with you."
"I kind of just want to be alone right now."
"Okay. I'll just check on you in the morning then."
"Thanks Sammy."
"Princess?"
"Yeah?" I say as I wipe a few tears.
"I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault Sam."
