Sam felt a lot better the next day, not as upset as he was last night. He and Brenda just lied on the couch all day, watching movies. Brenda was lying on her back, and Sam was laying between her legs, his head on her stomach. Mercedes, Chord, Stevie, and Stacy were on the other couch. Mary and Sandy were napping in the recliner. When the movie ended, Brenda asked,

"Do you want to go sit outside?" He nodded and got up, bringing her with him. They got on the trampoline but just laid there, talking."You okay?" She asked.

"Yeah, why?"

"Well, after last night, I wanted to make sure you were okay."

"I'm fine baby. I promise." She smiled and nodded."How's your leg?"

"It's not hurting, thankfully. I'll just be happy when I get the cast off. I hope it's before Chord and Mercedes wedding."

"Yeah, because I want to be able to dance with you." He said. She smiled.

"Trust me, you will."She said." Me and Stacy get our casts off two days before the bridal shower."

"And you're not wearing heels to the wedding." He said.

"Sam!" She whined. He chuckled.

"You just broke your ankle and wearing heels right after getting the cast off could make everything worse."

"Ugh, fine."She pouted and he kissed her on the lips, which made her smile when he pulled away."You're so cute."She said. He grinned.

"Well, I try." He said cutely. They were quiet for a few minutes and Sam said,"Um, I need to tell you something." She sat up and looked at him. He sat up with her.

"What?" She asked nervously.

"You act like I'm about to tell you I'm cheating on you, which I would never do."She nodded.

"I know. What is it?"

"I'm doing something for you that I can tell you about, but it's a surprise for you, so I technically can't tell you either way. It's going to take a while, about 10 months all together, to put together. And I'm helping with it, and I'll probably randomly go somewhere during the day to help. At least, while were in Ohio. I wanted you to know so that you don't think I'm actually cheating on or avoiding you." She nodded.

"So, long story short, your making me something, told me you were making me something and helping with it so I wouldn't think you were cheating or avoiding me."

"Pretty much."

"Do you think I don't trust you?"

"No, I just didn't want to hurt your feelings or anything if I had to leave during something me and you were doing. I know you trust me, and I trust you." He answered. She nodded.

"Okay then, I'm fine with that, although I'm really curious now. But one question."

"Shoot."

"If we're having sex, and you have to leave in the middle of it, would you?" Sam snorted and looked at her seriously.

"Hell. No. Sex will not be interrupted by that if I have anything to do with it." He said. She giggled.

"Good, because that's usually the best thing ever."

"Usually?"He asked, raising an eyebrow.

"All the time. Sex with you is freaking amazing." She said seriously. He burst out laughing and fell on his back he was laughing so hard. She laughed with him, still sitting up. Once he calmed down, he wiped his eyes since he was crying he was laughing so hard. He looked at her.
