Sam's Pov
I sat alone in the green house with my arms around my knees and my head down thinking about going home, or if we'd be here forever. Everything was starting to hit me. At first nothing felt real it was like everything was a dream, but that all changed when Cassandra died. Someone intentionally killed her I mean Emily died too but that was an accident. I started to get anxious and paranoid What if I'm next or grizz. I wouldn't know what to do without him, I care about him so much and I want to protect him but I can barely protect myself "what are you doing in hear so late...you can get in trouble" grizz stated while standing in the doorway. He sounded worried "I'm scared" I said lifting my head "of what?" he said softly while walking towards me "of everything" I said shakily "I know things are bad now but I'll protect you becca and eden...you don't have to be scared" he said kneeling down and grabbing my hand. They cold and rough yet comforting "I promise" he whispered.Grizz's Pov
I hate seeing him like this, I want him to be at peace but how could you in a place like this. It's a living nightmare that you can't escape and to be honest I'm just as scared as him but I have to be strong for him. I'm gonna be all he's got if becca doesn't get better and it doesn't look like she'll survive the birth she's not doing so good. So I have to be there for him, I have to take care of him "I want to protect you too" he said interrupting my thought. I couldn't help but smile, I finally found someone, someone who loves me and someone that I love back. I always thought I was gonna be alone but sam changed that. Without even knowing I started crying "w-whats wrong?" he said getting closer and sqeezing my hand "I love you" I said squeezing his hand "I...I love you too" he said quietly. We never said 'I love you' before that was our first time and it was special "sam" I said cupping his smooth freckled cheeks "yes" he whispered. After working up the courage I kissed him, the kiss was short chaste and a little scary but we didn't mind we were still young and didn't know the first thing about affection, all we knew is that we were in love.This is probably bad so sorry 💔 comment for request, anyways by loves 👋
