Could It Be? (A Sam Woolf fanfiction)

Chapter 7

Right when I said that, Sam's face went from happy to concerned.

"E-Emily Piriz? Why?" Sam asked me.

"She is new at our school, and she sat with me and Kat today at lunch, and...and..." I began, but my eyes started watering. What if Sam still liked her? One tear escaped from my eye and fell down my cheek.

"Alyssa, what's wrong? What happened?" asked Sam as he wiped away my tear.

"And she said that you used to like her, and that when you saw her, you would break up with me right away so you could date her, not me." I said as I began to cry.

"Oh, Alyssa, you know I would never hurt you. I like you way too much to leave you."said Sam as he pulled me into a tight hug.

It was such a relief to hear that. I was so worried.

"Hey, do want to go watch a movie? Maybe that will take your mind off things. I can make popcorn if you want," said Sam.

"Okay," I said as he helped me up off the ground.

We went downstairs and picked out a movie. Sam said that I could pick it.

"Um, how about The Notebook?" I said. I loved that movie; I've seen it at least 20 times.

"Okay, but I'm picking next time," said Sam with a smile.

"Whatever," I said back.

He went in the kitchen and made popcorn while I got comfy on the couch. He brought it out and came and sat right next to me.

I rested my head in his shoulder while he wrapped his arms around me.

I began to get really tired, and ended up falling asleep.

I woke up about an hour later, and the movie was still on.

I looked up and noticed that Sam was sleeping.

I checked the time, and noticed that it was 8:30! I was going to be in so much trouble, my mom probably had no idea where I was.

"Sam? Sam wake up!" I said as I shook him.

"What? Is the movie over yet?" he asked in a tired voice.

"No, but I have to go. It's eight thirty." I said as I tried to get up.

"No, Myers, please stay," he said, pulling me back down.

"Sam, I wish I could but I can't." I said. I managed to get off the couch and headed for the door.

"Do you want me to walk you home?" Sam asked as he got up.

"No, it's ok," I said as I got my shoes and jacket on. "I just have one more question," I said to Sam.

"Ya?"

"What happened between you and Emily?" I asked.

He sighed. "It's a long story. I can tell you tomorrow if you want to come over after school again." he said.

"Ok, sounds good. Bye," I said as I gave him a hug.

"Bye." Then he kissed me on the forehead. "And don't worry about anything, everything is gonna be alright."

Sam's POV

When I closed the door after Alyssa left, I sighed.

I couldn't believe that Emily was back. I remember what it was like when she lived here a couple years ago.
