I did everything I could to get comfortable in my cold and lonely bed. Without Sam, everything was dull even sleep wouldn't overcome me. I laid in bed restlessly looking through instagram. I looked at Sam's page and noticed all the pictures he'd posted of us and a wide smile spread across my lips. I missed him so much. He was on vacation going to see his parents and asked me if I wanted to go with him but I couldn't take off work and really needed my job. Before he left he kissed me lovingly holding my hips in place. I didn't want him to let go but he did anyway. I waved him off in his cab and walked home. I couldn't sleep alone. I haven't had to sleep alone in almost 2 years. I'd texted him all day and when he told me he was going to bed I let him sleep so I didn't seem selfish when in reality I never wanted to stop texting him. I got out of bed and walked to the living room. I turned the T.V. on in hopes of distracting myself. I groaned, bored out of my mind. I looked through Sam's instagram with no shame. He'd be gone for 4 more days. It was around 6a.m. when my alarm clock went off and and I hadn't gotten a wink of sleep. I turned off the alarm and walked upstairs to get dressed for work. I showered and dried my hair. I put on my uniform and put my hair up. I grabbed my keys and walked out the door. I stopped by McDonalds for a quick breakfast before I got to work. I knocked on the door of my clients home and his mother answered the door. I help a physically disabled 14 year old boy named Trent. He's a sweet boy with muscular dystrophy. I said my hello's to his parents as they were leaving for work. They told me that Trent wasn't feelings to well and that he may just stay in bed all day. I nodded and listened intently. They waved goodbye and I walked to Trent's door and knocked.
"Trent, hey buddy it's me. You okay? Can I come in?" I asked him sweetly.
"Hey, yeah I'm fine. Come on in." He squeaked out softly in a raspy voice. O walked in and smiled asking him what was up. He said that his throat was hurting but that he still wanted to go in the living room.
"Of course. I'll get your wheelchair." I told him grabbing his chair from the hallway.
"Hey, is Sam coming over for lunch today? I missed you guys over the weekend." Trent asked sweetly.
"No, sorry buddy he can't come he's in Kansas visiting his parents. He won't be back for a few more days." My face dropped.
"You miss him don't you?" He asked sympathetically.
"I really do, Trent. It's been so long since I've been separated from him, but how are you? What'd you and your parents do this weekend?" I told him changing the subject. He told me about his weekend and kept laughing throughout the whole story. I laughed right with him. During lunch I got a call from Sam. He talked to Trent and told him he missed him too. They talked for a minute then I got to talk to him. He told me he'd be home early because his parents got into a huge argument about money and Sam couldn't stand his parents arguing. I told him I loved him and I had to go because lunch was over and Trent was tired. We hung up and I took Trent to his room and laid him in bed. I hooked up his oxygen tank and covered him up. He fell asleep quickly and I sat in the living room reading a book. The rest of the day sped by pretty quickly. Sam was supposed to be home the next day. I slept well enough to have to use my alarm the next morning. I did my morning routine and went to Trent's house. Trent was laughing and talking all day. When lunch came there was a knock at the door. I pushed myself off the couch and walked to the door. I opened the door only to be enveloped in a huge hug by Sam. Trent got really excited. I kissed Sam passionately and broke the kiss because Trent was squealing with excitement. Sam walked over to Trent and gave him a big hug.
"How are you, Trent? I missed you big guy." Sam ruffled Trent's hair and made him giggle. We all ate lunch together and Sam helped Trent eat. When my shift was over and Trent's parents got home I waved goodbye and ruffled Trent's hair. I walked out the door only to be met by Sam crouched on one knee with a small velvet box in his hands.
"(Y/n) (y/l/n) will you make me the happiest man on earth and be mine forever?" Sam asked with a wide bright smile on his face and hope in his eyes. My eyes teared up as I nodded my head frantically.
"Yes. Yes. Yes. A million times yes!" I cried with the biggest smile on my face. He got up and slid the ring on my finger. I jumped into his arms and kissed him. We got into his car and went home and we've never had a better night together.
