Distance ( Jade Thirlwall and Sam Craske fanfic ) [sequel to NGU]

Chapter Twenty Six - Never Ever Again

Jade's POV

Everything else that happened after that was a blur.

I remember Sam shaking Jayden's shoulders violently, then the medics pushing us out of the way. Soon we were at the hospital... and then I was here...At my house.

The events of yesterday had really had an effect on me. I had so many emotions, and didn't know what to do with them. I couldn't sleep, I couldn't eat, I just couldn't do anything.

I didn't know what to think. This whole time I had hated Jayden. I feared him.

Jayden had done something horrible to me. Ever since his father had died he went crazy and turned into an alcoholic. Well at least he was an alcoholic. Jayden had changed. He regretted hurting me, and he risked his life for Sam and I.

My question was why. Why, after all these years? He could have moved on, forgotten about me. But no. Jayden turned back into the guy that I first loved, before that night. I mean now, I didn't love him like I love Sam, though now I didn't know what to think of him.

I was great full for what Jayden did for us. But I was guilty at the same time.

I was guilty because Jayden had died for us.

I didn't cry. I had barely knew him, for there was a huge gap in my life from when I had last seen him. I was upset, though I showed no emotion. I just stared out into space as the medics told Sam and I that Jayden hadn't made it. I didn't break inside. I didn't shatter. I was just sad and angry. Only one tear slipped from my eye, but it held everything. It felt as though I had been punched in the chest.

Sam was upset as well. Though I didn't know how upset and why. I didn't think he was sad or sorrowful; he seemed to be just angry and frustrated. Jayden's death was Henry and Alex's fault. The inimical actions of the two had caused this.

I didn't know what Jayden was to me. I wasn't sure if he was a friend? Stranger? Acquaintance? Maybe hero fitted him. He saved us, when he didn't have to.

But that's what angered me the most...

He didn't have to.

He could have left us. Jayden could have forgotten about us. He should have forgotten about me.

I sat on my bed as thoughts jumbled up in my brain. Sam was downstairs. I didn't know what he was doing, but he was probably cooking something because I could smell food from downstairs.

I decided to go see what Sam was making. I walked down the stairs quietly, and from the sound of my footsteps, Sam turned around from the stove.

"What are you making?" I asked lightly.

"Eggs," he replied. Sam turned back around to the stove. I put my hand on the counter behind and pushed up. I then sat onto the counter with my legs crossed.

"So... the funeral is tomorrow," Sam stated.

"I know," I sighed.

"We are going right?" he asked.

"Yeah," I frowned a bit and looked down at my hands,"How am I going to face his family?"

"I don't know. I guess tell them how great of a person and how brave he was," Sam replied, sighing a bit.

"Yeah," I said quietly,"The only thing I'm happy about at the moment is that Henry and Alex are finally out of our lives."

"Me too. They deserved to go to prison forever. They are crazy," Sam shook his head.

I nodded in agreement. I then got off the counter and walked up to Sam. I wrapped my arms around his waist from behind,"I'm sorry this all happened," I said.

"Jade, none of this was your fault," Sam replied,"If anything I should be apologizing. I fell into Henry's trap," his tone was laced with regret.

"It's not your fault either," I kissed his shoulder.

"I know...I'm just glad you are okay. That's all that matters to me,"He turned his head around to look down at me. I smiled lightly.

Alex and Henry were finally behind bars. I doubt we would ever see them again, thought at the same time I was scared. I wasn't just scared, I was scarred, more than I was before.

I just hope we never, ever see them again.
