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

Chapter Four

Ali's POV

"Oh yeah. And Ali? We're through." Those last two words rip through my heart and mind.

"Sam..." I reach out, still on the ground, but it's too late. He's gone. A tear rolls down my cheek and I collapse to the floor.

Sam's gone.

My mind can't process it.

Sam's gone.

He's really gone.

I sob. He just doesn't understand.

Chandler's POV

"Oh yeah. And Ali? We're through." How could he? It wasn't what it looked like.

I feel so bad for Alison. I should be happy that now she can be mine. But I'm not! She belongs with Sam. She just does. But that doesn't make me love her any less.

I get up and walk towards her. "Ali... Come on." I take her hand and she follows me into her dorm.

"What... Happened?" Alex looks shocked. I make a small motion with my head from her to the door. She nods and walks out.

I pick up Ali and sit down on the bed. Her head is resting on my lap just as mine was hers. I smiled slightly at her beautiful face. Her bright red hair, her pale skin, her glasses, her dimples, and her eyes. Especially her eyes. Everything about her was perfect. I lean down and kiss her gently on the nose. My body wasn't forced. This one was my choice.

"Ali... I lo-" She started sobbing again. I laid her down next to me on the bed and wrapped my arms around her.

Ali's POV

We're through.

The words echoed through my mind.

We're through.

Through.

We're through.

Oh yeah. And Ali? We're through.

We're through.

Through.

Over.

Dead.

Stupid.

I'm stupid.

Stupid for thinking that we were meant to be.

I start to sob again. I can't help it. My heart is lifeless. Chandler wraps his arms around me. I buried my head in his shoulder. I couldn't take it anymore. I moved my head to the pillow and screamed into it.

I couldn't hold it in.

It was all too much.

Chandler's POV

She looks so peaceful in her sleep. She was nuzzled up against me, my arm around her.

We could be like this forever.

Just one move.

Just.

One.

Move.

No! I can't do that to her.

Her eyes flutter open and she smiles.

"Hey..." I whisper.

"Hey." She says. She grips my hand and kisses me on the cheek.

"Thanks." She smiles again.

"For what?"

"Comforting me." She sat up and held my arm around her, her head resting on my shoulder.

"Of course." I kiss her cheek. She pulls away and moves back in onto my lips. Her hands were gripping my face. I pull back and smile.

"I love you, Ali." I stare straight into her beautiful eyes.

She smiled. "I know."

You guys are probably going to be mad at me. I had this chapter written and ready last night but I didn't publish it. But now since I published this one so early in the morning, I might publish another chapter or two during the day today. But now about this chapter. I added some Chali action. And now that there is that... I can really ask you this question. Team Salison or Team Chali? Comment and vote below for a quicker update!
