Can You Save Me? { Sam Pottorff }

Chapter 21 ~ Code Blue

Jazmin's P.O.V.

I laid in my bed with my face under the covers trying to get drowned in the darkness. It would of been easier if Sam didn't have to be poking me every few seconds, but I still enjoy his company.

He, along with everyone else, has been more cautious with my sleeping. I couldn't blame them, I was too. I really didn't want to close my eyes, and go back there.

They wouldn't understand it. They still don't know, because I refuaed to talk about it. How can I tell them that, with them not knowing about what's going on in real life. It doesn't seem real to be honest. Some of this feels like a fairy tail, where Sam is my Prince that took me far far away, but I'm still here in this distressed state, when I think I should be completely happy.

"What's on your mind?" Sam asked me knowing we'll that. wasn't sleeping already. I uncovered my face and watched him as he scooted closer and cupped my cheek. I leaned flow closer in and stared into his eyes.

"A lot." I answered still not ready to tell him. I don't know if I ever will, but it's too early to say anything about it, especially when I hardly know about it. "Sam, I'm scared." I admit and take his hand in mine.

"Of what?" He squeezes my hand comfortingly.

"What if.." I feel my head throb and a million new things come to my head at once. "What if she does do something? Something bad." I tried my best not to think about it, but I couldn't help it.

"I don't know whether she'll do anything or not, but I'll be here either way. We all will be." It never surprises me how kind and straight forward with me. He didn't lie and tell me that she wouldn't do anything, and I appreciate that.

"You're too kind, you know that?" I patted his cheek and brought my hand under the cover and hug the pillow next to me.

I was woken up by my alarm before I can even process what was about to happen in my dream. It's completely forgotten as I stand up to go to the bathroom.

I must've gone to sleep in an instant while talking with Sam, because I don't remember the last thing we talked about.

I took a quick shower, hoping it'd wake me up, but it didn't whatsoever. I got dressed in what I think has been a complete upgrade from what I have been wearing the past week. Even though it's just light blue jeans, white shirt, and vans; it's still a big step up.

Still have asleep, I got my things ready and headed for the front door. Before I could walk out, someone pulled me back by the waist.

"I know what you said but.." Sam said with hope. I told him I didn't want homemaking me to school, because there was no purpose in him waking up so early. But since he's already awake..

"Fine." I hugged childishly, still tired and not completely there in the moment as he mentions something as we walk out.

"Wait, what?" I asked as we got into the car.

"You're a strange sleeper." He comments as I cuddle up in the passenger seat trying to get comfortable.

"Thanks." I fight to keep a serious look, but fail as I feel the ends of my lips curl up into a smile when he smiles at me. "Jerk."

"I didn't say strange wasn't cute." I laugh along with him.

"Oh, please." I roll my eyes and focus my attention on Sam.

It's almost been a month since I first met him, and changed my life forever. Nothing will ever be the same again whether I am with Sam for a long time or not. Things will always be different. I feel like I'm just started to find myself, and I realized along the way of what I'm capable of.
