SAMANTHAS POV
i woke up feeling cold empty alone dried tear drops on my face. i looked to my right searching for the warmth of reece. i jumped a bit at the sight of my mum crawled up into a ball on a chair tissues surrounding her. I looked at my phone to see it was 4:56 am. I fell back asleep wondering why reece had left after he said he would never leave.
I awoke again but this time to the smell of fresh chocolate chip pancakes sitting by bed. It was my favourite but i was still in no mood to eat. I slowly rose out of bed not wanting to live another day and went to the bathroom. I started a bath to try and wash the feelings away hoping that if i clean my self enough the pain, feelings and memories will flow away with the water. As i looked in the mirror at the bruises and cuts memories come flooding back.
As i slid under the water the pain piercing my skin my mind went silent as i was slowly slipping out of consciousness. under the water i couldnt hear a word, nothing. all of a sudden my mum is pulling me out of the water and screaming in fear that i may be dead. i open my eyes and give her a look to tell her im okay. she doesnt say anything she just sits down.

SAMANTHAS POV
i havent been able to stop thinking about reece i wondered where he went. it has been a week i only eat a small part of my meal a day to make my mum happy. i'm losing weight quickly. i hardly get out of bed but today i needed to know.
I softly walked down the stairs to be greated by my sister and my mother. I hadnt talked to my sister in awhile because mum didnt want her to disturb her. i greeted them with a weak smile and gave them a hug. My sister walked up the stairs to go to bed leaving the room with mum, me and unanswered questions.
As I looked at the wall blankly my mum spoke up. "sammie.... is there something you need to talk about?" she asked trying to be sensitive about the situation. "what..what happened to reece?" i said quietly but certified. my mothers face turned from love to anger. "i dont want you seeing him okay? he is trouble i dont want you being someone like him okay look what happened last time" As she spoke those last words her voice got shakey.
my eyes filled with tears i wasn't expecting such an answer. I was now angry i needed him here to hold me and tell me everything is going to be okay. obvioulsy that is not going to happen. Not saying a word i stormed into my room opening my window for the slightest chance of seeing him. his light was on but the window was closed.
i cried myself to sleep that night all my thougths running through my mind.
over the next couple of days i hadn't talked to my mum i was angry and upset. I woke up to a familiar giggle. I got out of bed and slowly walked down the stairs into the lounge room too find my best friend Annika where i use to live. i was shocked and overwhelmed at the sight of her. She ran straight up to me and gave me a big hug.
straight away we got back to bonding and for once i felt myself again. mum had brought her down for 2 weeks to help cheer me up. while we were talking some how the conversation came around to reece. "i can tell there is a boy... or was....?" she said egar to know. "well reece, he lives next door and really like him. but after what happened mum wont let me see him or talk to him" I spoke as if what had happened was in the past and i could move on. Annika agreed with me and wanted to get to the bottom of this. what ever this was.
i told her how my mum had blocked his number from my phone and her eyes lit up as she dash across the room. "where is it. its gotta be here somewhere.. argh oh here it is" she came back jumping on the bed with her phone. "do you remember his number?" i stood up quickly and went to my desk. right there on a sticky note where i left it. "here it is. wait are you going to do?" I stood there questioning her intentions.
"well We are going to call him!" she said with a devious smile. before even processing what she had said she grabbed the number and started dialling.
one tone after the other what if he doesnt answer then...."hello?"

REECES POV
school is boring way to many assignments year 12 is so hard. i hadnt been acting the same everyone around me was noticing no one said anything though. All I could think about was samantha. she wasnt aloud out of the house. im gathering she or her mother blocked my number. she hasnt gone to school for obvious reasons. but today somebody arrived to there house i have no i dea who but it wasnt her sister or mum.
I was sitting and playing the gutair lyrics flowing out from my heart. My eyes were tearing up i continued anyway. As i was still playing my phone started going off. I looked at the ID unknown. I put it down i dont want to talk to anyone unless it was sam. Then I jumped the thought that it could actually be Sam wanting to talk to me. I picked my phone up just in the nick of time.
"hello?"
".........."
