Playing With Fire (A Chandler Riggs and Sam Elica Fan Fiction)

Chapter One

Ali's POV
I stepped into the academy. "A boarding school..." I thought to myself. "Why would mom send me here?"

I bumped into a boy and fell down. "Oh... Sorry..." I said shyly.

"No worries... The name's Sam. Yours?" He asked.

"Uh... Alison. But you can call me Ali." I was surprised that he was being so kind. He was so pretty. Did I just say that?!?

He smiled. "New here?"

I nodded.

"I'll show you around." He saw that I was in room 115. "Oh... I just happen to know who's in that room!" He smiled again.

He explained what everything was as we walked past. He was so nice! And I was so awkward. He was so pretty! And I was so... Me.

We finally got to the room and I opened the door. Inside, stood a girl my age, introduced to me with the name Alexandra. But she goes by Alex.

"Hi..." I said shyly. I'm horrible with people.

"There's a party tonight! Want to come?" Well... She's very outgoing. I wanted to be like her. I shrugged and started to unpack.

"Come on! Please! You'll get to know everybody..." She persuaded.

"I'm not good with... People." That's an excuse right? Not really...

LATER THAT DAY...

"Come on!" Alex dragged me through the halls. I'm pretty sure she was going to rip my arm off!

"Fine!" I pulled my arm away and we started walking.

"Yay!" Alex smiled.

We walked down the halls, and I could hear music. Mostly the bass.

"We're here!" She was excited. Me on the other hand, ready to be completely MORTIFIED! We walked in and I saw a couple hundred people.

Before I knew it, Alex was of making out with some guy. "What the fuck..." I thought.

I sat at a table so I could be alone. Sam came along and sat down. "Hey..." I said.

"Hey! Wanna meet someone?" He asked.

"Sure." Might as well...

He ran off, and a minute later came back with this guy with the most AMAZING hair. He said his name was Chandler. But to be honest, he was kind of jerky. Whenever I said something nice, he ignored me. Like COMPLETELY ignored me. It was getting really awkward, considering Chandler stood a couple feet from our table sucking face with some girl. Wait... That's Alex! She's disgusting.

"Sam...?" I asked.

"Yeah? What is it?" He actually sounded interested. I was surprised.

"Can we go?" He nodded and we walked out.

"I can show you around the town if you want." He offered. He was so sweet! We walked around for a little while, and I started up a conversation.

"So... Your girlfriend must be really lucky." Wow I'm so stupid! I face palmed and tried to act like I never said anything. But sure enough, he noticed, and broke out laughing. I could feel the heat of my tears radiating throughout my body. Before one slipped, I sprinted away and into my room. I stuffed my face into a pillow and sobbed uncontrollably.

A couple minutes later, there was banging on the door. They didn't need to say their name for me to know who it was. "Ali! It's Sam! Let me in!" He banged louder.

"Just..." I sniffled. "Go awa-" I was cut off by him kicking the door down. Wow that's hot. Goodness what is wrong with me! He just broke my heart and I'm attracted to him? I'm so stupid. I just stuffed my face back in the pillow and immediately started sobbing again.

"A- Ali... I didn't mean it like that." He sat down next to me on the bed and sat me up, my head on his shoulders.

"I'm sorry..." He was so affectionate. "I'm so... So sorry."

"It's okay..." He hugged me and let me lay back down on the bed. He smiled at me and did the same.

"I'm glad everything is okay now. Well... I better go." He got up.

I grabbed his arm. "No! No. Please don't go." He smiled at me again and laid down next to me again, his arms around my body. My body pressed against his. I loved him. I was in love with a boy named Sam.
