Am I Insane?

Chapter 6

*Ben's POV*

Why can't I talk to Sam normally? Bloody hell, I've never had this issue before. Is it because she is the daughter of one of my idols? Ugh this fucking sucks!

"Benny boo, what are you thinking about? " I heard Danny ask from a distance.

"Well Danny I ran into Sam again."

"Ohhh you so have the hots for her!"

"I know."

"Ask her out."

"Danny, she's Corey's daughter, I can't just ask her out."

"Corey's daughter?"

"Yes, Corey Taylor, you know Slipknot. "

"Dude, you're screwed."

"Don't you think I know that already Danny!" I groaned.

"What are you going to do? "

"I don't know." I said throwing my hands in the air.

"What's on your hand?"

"She gave me her number, told me that when I come up with a reason of why I can hardly talk to her, to text her. "

"Ben, I think she might like you back. Girls like her don't give their numbers out to just anyone."

"I don't know Danny."

*Sam's pov*

"Nate!" I yell as he comes into view.

"Sammy!" He yells back.

"Guess what!" I laugh as I jump up and down in front of him.

"You've had too many Monsters?" He laughed.

"No, guess who I just ran into!"

"Who?"

"Ben!" I squeal.

"You really like him don't you?" Nate asked.

"Psssshhhh no." I say casually.

"Really, then what color are his eyes?"

"They are blue." I say, blushing a little bit.

"See, you do like him."

"I hate that you know me so well."

"Love you too."

"What should I do? I really like him, but I don't think he likes me."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because he has issues talking to me. I gave him my number and told him that when he came come up with a reason of why he can't talk to me, to text me."

"Maybe he's just nervous. Hell I would be if I were talking to a girl like you, a girl who is beautiful, but have no idea what she likes or anything she's into." Nate said.

As Nate was talking, I heard a voice from behind me. A voice that sounded familiar.

"Bloody hell, mate, who's this?" The voice asked Nate.

"Danny, this is Sam."

"Who is Danny?" I ask.

"Well, love, I am." Said the person who is behind me. I turn around to see a man who was a little husky and had a ginger beard.

"Well, it's nice to meet you Danny. I'm Samantha Taylor, but I go by Sam."

"Ahh, so this is the girl Benny boo has been talking about." Danny laughed.

"Benny boo?" I asked confused.

"Danny is Ben's best friend. They have weird nicknames for each other." Nate explained.

"Yes, that is true, mate. Benjamin is like my brother."

"Is that his actual name? Benjamin? I like it."

"Don't call him that, he hates it." Danny and Nate said at the same time."

"Who hates what?" Ben's voice said from behind me."

"Your actual name." Danny said.

"What about it?" Ben asked.

"Why don't you go by Benjamin?" I ask.

"I hate it, the name is over used." Ben said.

"I like it, Benjamin isn't that common anymore. It's really nice." I said shyly.

"Why?"

"Benjamin is a beautiful name." I said.

"No its not." Ben argued.

"I happen to love your actual name. It suits you better"

"Okay, Samantha, why do go by Sam instead?" Ben asked.

"I don't want to talk about it." I said.

"Why not?" Ben asked.

"Ben, don't push it." Nate said.

"Don't push what?" Danny asked.

"It's a sensitive subject for her." Nate said.

"Nate, I'm going to the bus." I mumbled.

"Sam, no you're going to stay here." He said.

"No. I'm going to the bus." I said. I started to walk off.

"Sam, wait." Ben called out.

"What do you want?"

"Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to upset you." Ben apologized.

"It's fine. I just hate talking about it."

"I understand now, I am truly sorry for upsetting you. I didn't know it was a sensitive subject for you when I asked the question. I hate that I have upset you."

"Ben, you're fine, it's not you that upset me, its the reason I don't like talking about my name."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure." I laugh.

"Okay. That makes me feel just a little bit better." Ben laughed.

"I'm going to the bus, bye Ben." I said.

"Sam, can I get a hug?" Ben asked

"Sure." I laugh. He walks up to me with arms open. I walk into his arms, accepting the hug. I was small compared to Ben. I hit mid chest to him.

When Ben finally let me go, he left me alone next to my bus. I guess when he started walking while hugging me he was leading me to my bus.

I walk onto the bus and go to my bunk.
