James Smith

I went home that night feeling scared. Samantha has an abusive home life and I cant let her live that way. I know the right thing to do is tell someone. Maybe Delaney or Randy but then I remember that Sammie doesn't want me to tell anyone. But I need to.

I walk inside the house to see Randy and Delaney on the couch watching TV.

"Hey James! Did you return the sweatshirt?" Delaney asked.

"Yes...." I said quietly trying hard not to say anything.

"Something wrong?" Randy asked turning the TV off. I couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Yes. Its Samantha. I promised her I wouldn't say anything but I have to. " I said giving in.

"What is it?" Delaney asked concerned.

"Samantha's father is abusive to her and an alcoholic. When I went to give her the sweatshirt she had a bright red hand print on her cheek. She was crying too. I couldn't stand seeing her like that." I said.

"We need to tell the police." Delaney said.

"No we can't! She said that she would be put into CPS!" I said.

"We need to do something. She can get seriously hurt!"

"What if she goes away forever! I'll never see her again!"

"She can live with us maybe. You guys are dating right?" I paused and thought about it. Samantha and I did have a lot of fun. Maybe we can date.

"Yes."

"Okay! Then it won't be awkward. Lets go." Randy, Delaney and I got in the car and drove to the police station. I had to come with because I knew most of the facts.

When we arrived I got nervous. Randy put a hand on my shoulder and nodded. I smiled up at him and walked into the police station. Delaney went up the the desk.

"I would like to report an abuse." Delaney said.

"Of course. Can you explain the situation?" The police said. Delaney looked at me and waved me over.

"Yes sir. My girlfriend Samantha Riley is being abused by her father. I went to her house yesterday to return a sweatshirt for her and she was crying and had a large red hand on her left cheek. She said that her dad is an alcoholic too. Her mom lets her dad do this and her brother doesn't care." I explained.

"Thank you. Samantha's father is named Hank Riley. We have dealt with him in the past. I have some of his information here. We are going to send some cops to the house and we will arrest her father and bring Samantha here as well. We will have to contact CPS to find her a safe living environment." The cop said.

"Oh! Sir. we are willing to take Samantha into our home. James here doesn't want her to leave so we are going to take her into our home to keep her safe." Randy said.

"Thats fine but we will need a background check on both you and her." The cop said nodding to Delaney.

"Alright. Thank you."

"No problem. And we are also going to still have to contact CPS but I'll inform them that someone is already interested in taking Samantha in."

"Perfect. Thanks again." Just then Samantha walked in with a cop and behind them were 2 cops holding a handcuffed Hank Riley.

"Samantha, take a seat please." The cop told Samantha. She sat down and looked at me. I sat next to her.

"James! You said you weren't going to tell anyone!" Samantha whisper shouted.

"I had too. You were not living in a safe environment." I explain.

"Now they are going to contact CPS and have to get me a different family."

"They already found you a family."

"What?"

"We are taking you in." Samantha smiled and hugged me. "I suppose it would be less awkward if you agree to be my girlfriend." I said whiled hugging her. Samantha pulled away and looked at me in shock.

"Your asking me to date you?" She asked.

"I am. And this would also be less awkward if you said yes." I said.

"Well then, yes!" She gave me another hug and started crying happy tears. "Im sorry. Im just really happy right now." Samantha said laughing.

"Its fine. Im glad you said yes." I chuckled.

A little later on that night we were able to go home. We stopped at Samantha's house first so she could pack her things and bring them to our house.

When we got to our house we had to find her a room to stay in. I knew Randy wasn't going to want her to sleep in his sister's room but he might have to.

"So, um...where am I going to be staying?" Samantha asked.

"Well, I guess you can take the guest room. Its downstairs but its a really nice room." Randy said.

"Wait. There's a guest room?" I asked shocked.

"Yeah. Its really nice too." I walked down with Samantha so I could see this room too.

The room was pretty big. There was a bathroom and walk in closet in the room as well as a nice sized bed and a big window with a sliding door to the back yard.

"Your so lucky." I said looking around the room.

"This is really nice. Thank you so much for letting me stay." Samantha replied.

"No problem." I smiled. "Now you can get some rest. I'm pretty tired."

"Okay. Thank you." I left the room and went to mine. Randy and Delaney were already in their room sleeping. I went to mine and got ready for bed. I was pretty exhausted from all this running around tonight.

I got my pajamas on and plugged my phone in next to my bed. I checked my social medias one more time before going to sleep. I checked snapchat and instagram which are my two favorite apps. Then twitter last. Then finally I fell to sleep.
