Love hurts (A smaude fan fiction)

Part 1

Maude POV

'DING'
I rolled over to look at the bright light coming from my bedside table. I opened my phone to be greeted by the picture of Sam and I hugging with Whitney drinking champagne in front of us. The night of the SourceFedNERD livestream one of the best and worst nights of my life but at least something great came out of it.

I opened my messages to see one from Sam. "Good morning beautiful, hope you had a good sleep. I can't wait to see you tomorrow". Sam am I had been secretly dating since the day after we read dirty fan fiction for GeekBomb. It had been the greatest month ever. He was so sweet, caring and our personalities meshed so well together. The only hard part was keeping it a secret. "Me too bunny, I miss your stupid face haha" I replied.

I got out of bed and headed for a shower. I wasn't looking forward to my day of doing absolutely nothing.

Sam POV

As I read Maude's message a smile came across my face. Even through texts she still made me smile every time. I can't believe it took me so long to tell her I like her. From the first moment I made her laugh I knew this girl was special but it had taken me months to pluck up the courage to say to her. I think about all the things we could have done if I hadn't taken so long.

"Stupid idiot" I say slapping my forehead. Dwight looks up from his basket confused on why his owner was hitting himself.

Grabbing my keys I ran out the door. Once again I was late for work because I'm too busy day dreaming.

Maude POV

"I've definitely woken up on the wrong side of the bed" I thought to myself. Heading out the bathroom I look in the mirror. I looked pissed off and felt pissed off. I stick my middle fingers up at myself and march down to my room.

Why was I so angry? I just didn't understand it. Slamming my door I hear a thud on the floor. Great now stuff was falling off my shelves. This day is just getting worse and worse. I start getting ready for no reason. Its not like I'm going somewhere.

'DING'

Opening my phone and reading the message I just get more annoyed. It was from David. A guy from my high school who had moved to LA to become an "actor". The only jobs he'd be getting are as those stereotypical Australian surfer douchebags.

"You need to get rid of that Sam pussy and be with a real man like me. Come on over so I can fuck your brains out" I hated him. I don't know why I had drinks with him, I don't know why I gave him my number and I don't know why I made out with him. If Sam found out he'd never speak to me again.

I just texted back saying "No thanks. I'm with Sam and he makes me happy". I fell back on my bed and almost immediately went to sleep. I think I left SourceFed too soon. All I do is sleep now.

Sam POV

Yet another boring day at work. Will playing Drake, Whitney writing a story, Bree and Steve acting like idiots with each other (that was pretty cute actually) and the occasional person walking through with candy. I just sat there staring at my screen.

"Are you okay Sam" I heard someone say. Mike came into view. "Yeah I'm fine Mike. Just a bit bored" I responded but he gave me a look to say that he didn't believe me. "Ahh okay, I thought you just looked a leel beet down. I'll leave you to finish your research". It had been a month and I still couldn't adjust to Maude being gone. I mean I love the guys here but no one makes me feel the way she does. At least we occasionally see each other outside of work. I had to stop myself from daydreaming again. "How's your day going?" I texted Maude needing to hear from her but there was no reply. I just wish this day was over.

Maude POV

I'm woken up by the sound of Zelda barking and someone banging my door. I run to the door and there he is the 6 ft 2 douchebag of the year David. He barges in without saying a word and heads straight for the fridge. "What are you doing here?" I shout at him furiously. To which he responds "To talk some sense into you" he starts making himself a sandwich and drinking my roommates beer.

I run back to my room. I had no idea what to do so I just fled the situation. Looking at my phone I see Sam has texted me. I respond "I'm fine" and quickly shut my phone. The loud footsteps echoed down my hall. What was going to happen. I was terrified. So many thoughts were rushing through my head. I just wish this day was over.

Sam POV

"I'm fine" that was it? Had I done something wrong? She seemed so sweet this morning what had happened? I started to overthink everything. "That's me away Sam, see you next week" Whitney said to me. "Yeah see you then" That must have sounded so rude but I didn't care about anything besides what Maude had just said.

It plagued my mind it was all I could think about the whole car journey. I had to stop at the supermarket to get some dog food for Dwight but before I headed in I messaged Maude "are you sure" and got a response straight away "yep" it read. Something was wrong here.

Maude POV

David paced back and forth in my room while I just sat on the edge of my bed. "Look at him! He's a fucking nerd. You need to get rid of him. I can treat you right. I can protect you. You think that little bitch can?" He just kept yelling at me but I was too scared to look up.The tears were running down my face.

"I'm fucking done with this" he took his phone out of his pocket and went down the hall. He was making a call to someone but I couldn't hear anything just muffled sounds. Before he hung up all a heard was "just do it" and then he appeared in my doorway again. I stood up to tell him to get out and he pushed me back down. That was the last straw. I got straight back up "Get. Out. Now" I said firmly. He looked at me with a smile that soon turned to anger. Pulling his fist back he sent it flying through my wall. He stormed out the front door slamming it behind himself.

A wave of relief passed over me but that soon turned to tears. I ran to the toilet and sat there crying.

Sam POV

"I'm going to call her" I thought to myself as I walked back to my car. Flinging the dog food in the trunk I start to ring her. "Damnit answer machine" I say as I look around. "Hey baby, I was just calling to see if you're okay. You just seem a bit off with me. If you want I can maybe come over but it's fine if you don't want me to. I hope we are still on for tomorrow? Anyway drop me a message or call me back whatever is easiest. I love you."

Why did I say that. That's the first time I've told her I love her. What have I done I should've said it in person. This thought was cut short by the sound of someone running. I turn around and feel a sharp pain in my stomach.

I look down and see the handle of a kitchen knife. What just happened. All I can say is "why?". The hooded man replies "That's from David". I blurt out one last word as I fall to the ground "who?". The last words I hear are "The guy that's fucking your girl right now". I lay there cold, everything was silent and slowly turning black.
