Sams POV~

I lay in the bed, reading every message I had got, but non from Lily, I had ruined it now, it had been two weeks since I left, she wouldn't forgive me, I wouldn't forgive me.

I decided to ring my dad, I knew they would be worried

'Sam?' He answered quickly

'Hi dad' I quietly replied

'Sam where are you?'

'I'm sorry, I shouldn't have left'

We talked for a little bit, I told him where I was and he left to come and get me. I packed up the few things I bought and waited, my heart was beating so fast, I knew he'd be annoyed, but that's not what I was scared about, I also knew he'd make me go and see Lily, I hated that I hurt her.

'I'm glad you're okay' my dad said hugging me

The drive home wasn't too long as I had only walked to the hotel, I took a deep breathe hoping I'd get the answer I wanted

'How's Lily?'

'I'm not gonna lie, she's bad. I've not seen her since the day you left, I don't think anyone has, not even Andy' he explained, my heart fell as I didn't get the answer I wished for

We arrived home and I saw my mum, I felt horrible for worrying them, but my way of dealing with what happened was to run, I couldn't think of anything else to do, and I think deep down they realised that and knew I was safe.

'Right I'm going to take you to Andys and see if you can get Lily to talk, or just eat something' my dad said and I nodded. I knew it had to happen sometime.

Not long after I was stood at her front door, i knocked and Gabby answered

'Oh Sam, I'm so glad you're ok' she pulled me in for a hug and I took a breath of relief that she didn't hate me.

'I'm sorry for leaving' I replied, she shook her head

'Don't apologise' we went in and Maisie hugged me.

Everyone looked at me, I nodded

'Is she upstairs?' I asked and Andy nodded in response, I made my way upstairs and it was silent, her door was closed, I didn't know if she had heard me from downstairs, I knocked as no one answered, I tried to open it but it was locked.

'Lily? It's Sam, please let me in' after a minute the door opened, she looked hurt, tear stains on her face, she didn't say anything, just looked at me in shock

'What're you doing here?' She whispered, her voice was rough, as she chocked on tears.

'I'm sorry, I panicked and ran, I didn't know what to do, everyone was telling me what I should do and how I should act' I tried to explain but I wasn't sure she was listening, and hasn't moved from staring at me

'Where were you?' She stuttered

'A hotel about 20 minutes away' she moved away from the door and sat on her bed, I slowly followed her and sat down.

'And what about me? You never thought to call me?'

'I tried texting but I could never send it, and I could never make myself call you, I knew how much I'd hurt you and I knew I didn't deserve forgiveness' I sighed and she looked at me

'Sam I might not agree with how you left but I know your pain and you do deserve it, I don't hate you, I'm sad you left without notice but I don't hate you. I love you' she replied

'I love you to' tears fell down her face and I pulled her in for a hug 'I'm sorry I left. I'm here now and I'm never leaving again'
