Could It Be? (A Sam Woolf fanfiction)

Chapter 12

As I was shaking her hand, I was in total shock.

Did she just say 'nice to meet you'?

I was really confused, but just played along.

"Um, hi, nice to meet you too," I said.

"So guys, are you excited to compete?" she asked everyone.

We all said yes and got to know each other better, then went to our rooms.

I decided I would call Kat to tell her about what just happened.

"Hey Kat, remember Emily?" I asked, already knowing the answer.

"Um, ya, how could I not," she said back.

"Well, she is my roommate for American Idol, and she is pretending she doesn't know who I am," I said.

"Liss, are you okay? Are you sure it's her?" asked Kat.

"Kat, I am 100% sure! So what should I do?"

"Just go along with it. She is probably trying to start over. You should give her a chance," she said.

I guess that made sense. Since we were now roommates, we should probably become friends.

"Okay, thanks Kat. I have to go now, but I'll see you soon," I said. Then we exchanged goodbyes and hung up.

Right when I was about to turn my phone off, I got a text from Sam.

Sam- Hey, meet me in the lobby in 5

Me- But we aren't supposed to leave our rooms

Sam- Ik, but I miss you :)

Me- lol ok, be down in a sec.

I didn't feel like changing out of my pajamas, so I just went in the bathroom to fix my hair then headed downstairs.

When I got downstairs, I didn't see Sam, so I took out my phone to text him. But then someone came up from behind and wrapped their arms around my waist.

"Hey Sam!" I said as I turned around to hug him.

"Hey Myers!" he said, then kissed me.

"So what's up?" I asked.

"I just wanted to see you. I missed you," he said, blushing. I love when he blushes.

"But I just talked to you like two hours ago," I said, laughing.

"I know, but I still missed you," he said as he pulled me in for a hug. We say down in the lounge in the lobby so that we could talk.

"So, are you excited for Hollywood week to start?" I asked.

"Ya, but kinda nervous. I don't even know what we are going to do, after what happened today. I guess anything could happen. So how's Emily?" he asked.

"Um, she's. . .interesting," I said, not knowing what else to say.

He laughed. "And what do you mean by that?"

"I mean she is pretending like she doesn't know me. It's really weird," I said.

"Hmm. Well maybe she is trying to start over with you?" he asked.

"Ya, that's what Kat said. I just don't-" I began, but we heard someone coming towards the lobby. If we got caught being out of our rooms, we could get in big trouble.

We both stood up but didn't know where to go.

"What should we do?" I whispered in panic.

"Um, uh follow me," he whispered back.

He grabbed my hand and ran opposite of the elevator.

"Where are we going?" I asked, still whispering.

"I don't really know," he said.

"What do you mean you don't-" but he cut me off by pulling me into a janitors closet.

He closed the door and I couldn't see a thing. Then Sam turned on a light.

The closet was really small; we couldn't even fit another person into there.

"Nice save," I joked.

"Hey, I got us out of sight. You should be thanking me," he said.

"I'm kidding, thanks." I said. Then he started laughing.

"What's so funny?" I asked, beginning to laugh.

He was laughing to hard to answer, which made me laugh. We laughed until we couldn't breath.

"So why are we laughing again?" I asked, trying to calm down.

"I don't even know."

"Hahaha you're so weird," I said.

"Well we should probably get back to our rooms, I think whoever was down here is gone."

I agreed and we walked back to our rooms. After Sam kissed me goodnight, I went back to my room.

When I opened the door, Emily was sitting on the couch watching TV.

"Oh hey," I said, closing the door behind me.

"Where were you?" she asked, like she was really mad. There's the Emily I know.

"I was downstairs. Sorry, mom." I said as I took my shoes off.

"You know you aren't allowed out of your hotel room after hours."

"Ya, I know, but Sam wanted to see-" but I stopped talking. I shouldn't have brought up Sam.

"You know, if I tell someone about this, you could get in big trouble," she said as I walked to my room. I guess everyone else was sleeping.

"Oh please, Emily, let me live my life! Sam moved on, and you need to let it go!" I said as I slammed my door shut. I went straight into my bathroom and took a shower.

Why can't Emily get over Sam? Is it that big of a deal?

I then got out of the shower and went to bed. I had a big day ahead of me.
