"Haha! You look like a raccoon!", Beck laughs. We all came over to Sam's place to see Em. She went directly against what I told her and, just like I told her, Jackaline beat her ass. It would've been so much worse if Sam hadn't come. She's been wearing mittens around Em but her hands are actually all bandaged up. No one knows where Jackaline is now but after dealing with Sam I know she won't be back.

"Shut up Beck.", Em laughs, "So how's school been? Sam won't let me leave this bed so I'm super bored."

"School's boring as usual.", Beck sighs, "I wish Kade's girlfriend brought some friends."

"Speaking of my girlfriend.", I take out my HDS and unequip a bag of candy, "Here. She wanted to give you these as a get well soon gift."

"Oh sweet! I love your girlfriend.", Em reaches out for them but Sam snatches them away before she can get a hold of them.

"After you're better.", Sam says.

"Oh come on. A bag of candy won't kill me, Sam.", Em pouts.

"I don't want your headaches to come back."

"Ugh fiiiiine. But you owe me if they go rotten before I can have them."

"Does candy even go rotten?", Beck asks and I just give her a look.

"Alright guys it's time for her to sleep.", Sam says.

"Whaaat? But I don't want to go to sleep.", Em whines.

"See you around Em.", Beck says.

"Don't give Sam a hard time. Later Em", I say.

Emily

Sure I whine and act like I don't like being babied by Sam but that's just for my reputation.

She runs her hands through my hair and hums a lullaby so that I'll fall asleep. She's done this everyday since I came here and it puts me right to sleep every time.

I awaken to the scent of breakfast that Sam's prepared for me.

"Good morning.", she says and sits in the chair next to her bed. Which I've taken over.

"Where do you sleep now, Sam?"

"The couch."

"Why don't you just sleep next to me?"

"No. No I can't do that."

Right. Of course she wouldn't want to sleep next to someone who disgusts her. I drop my fork onto my plate, "Why are you doing this?"

"What?", she looks like I've told her that I'm pregnant or something.

"Oh don't act like you're shocked that I'm asking you why you are taking care of me when I disgust you so much that you won't EVEN LOOK ME IN THE EYE!", I scream and inadvertently knock the plate to the floor and it shatters.

I gasp, "I-I'm sorry", I rip off my blankets so that I can pick it up.

"DON'T!", Sam grabs me and places me back under the blankets, "I'll get it. Don't touch it, Em. I mean it."

She exits and I just sit there and stare into the distance questioning myself on why I'm such a bitch.

"I don't know why you think that but I'm not even remotely disgusted with you. If anything, I'm disgusted with myself.", she says as she cleans up the mess.
