A Little Bit of Everything and Everyone

Just Friends? (Sammy Wilk) pt. 4

Me: so...that plan failed. Sam wasn't there and I even stuck around and watched two movies with the other guys and he still didn't show up. :(

Jennah: are you okay? Do you need us to come home cuz we totally will

Me: nah, I'll be fine. Have fun I'm going to sleep

Jennah: goodnight roomie, see you in the morning

After taking my contacts out and putting my retainer in, I climb into bed. I stare at the ceiling for a while, with John Mayer playing softly from my phone next to me. Eventually my eyes drift shut.

I feel like I'm only sleeping for ten minutes, even though it's been almost two hours, when there's a knock on my door. Who is possibly visiting at two in the morning?!

The knocking continues as I pull a hoodie on over the tank top I was sleeping in.

"I'm coming hold on!" I yell. I open the door and arms engulf me.

"What the hell are you doing?! It's two in the morning Sam!" I mumble as best I can while being suffocated.

"Nate said you stopped by and that you were upset, so I just wanted to make sure you were okay," he says. He pulls away and cups my face.

"Are you okay?" he asks, looking into my eyes.

"Fine, just tired," I say softly. Before I can react, he's leaning down and our lips meet.

"Sam?"

"Rachel, I've wanted to do that literally forever," he says. I push myself on my tiptoes and connect our lips again.

"What about Stas?" I ask when we break apart.

"I broke up with her. She was too clingy," he tells me.

"Can I stay with you tonight?" he asks. I nod and we walk into my room, crawling into bed together. Sam wraps his arms around me protectively.

"I love you Rachel," he says. I smile to myself. Those three little words suddenly mean so much more.
