Tyler’s POV
I’ve been at the hospital with Chase for about four days. I haven’t heard from Sam yet and I’m getting worried. After Sam left, I took Chase to the hospital because they called and said that they would do the treatment for free. Apparently, someone gave a donation so Chase could have his treatment. I felt so happy. I wanted to share the news with Sam, but she wasn’t picking up her phone. I called Kyle and asked him if he knew something about her and he said that he hasn’t seen her for a week.
Right now, I’m with Chase holding his little hand while he is sleeping. I can’t stop thinking about Sam. What if something had happened to her? No, don’t think like this. Sam is okay. She has to be. I decide to walk downstairs to the lobby of the hospital to walk around while mom stays with Chase. I kiss my son’s head and walk out.
I sigh and check my phone. No calls, no texts. Nothing. I put my phone back in my pocket and reach the lobby. I grab something to eat from the vending machines and decide to walk out of the hospital to the little park that’s near it. It’s a chilly night but I don’t care. I need to take my mind off of things. As I reach the door, I see someone lying down on the floor outside of the hospital. I thought it was one of those people asking for money so I decided that when I reached that person, I would walk past him or maybe give him so of my snack. When I look down at the person, I notice it’s a girl and she’s naked. But that’s not what gets me to start screaming for the paramedics. It’s all the cuts she has all over her body. She is covered in blood. Nurses come running and push me aside so they can lift the girl up onto a stretcher and take her inside. When I look at the girls face, I felt my breath taken out of me. It was Sam. My Sam.

I have been pacing back and forth, worried sick about Sam. What happened to her? Why didn’t she call me? The nurses think it was someone that made all of those cuts on her, but I know better. I can’t wait for her to wake up so I can get some answers. The nurses told me that they would check her body entirely to see if she had other wounds. When they did, they came to me and told me they did some tests. They told me that Sam was pregnant. She’s two months along the pregnancy.

Sam’s POV
I groan as I stir. My whole body is aching. Why does my body hurt? Your body isn’t supposed to hurt when you’re dead, right? So why am I feeling so sore? I hiss in pain and open my eyes to see an IV stuck to my arm. The first thing that comes to my head is that Zach and Brad are drugging. I went to take the needle off but someone stopped me.
“Hello there. I’m Dr. Cowell. How are you feeling?”
In a raspy voice I say, “I’m sore. Where am I?”
“You’re at the hospital. Do you want to tell me what do you remember from last night?”
I close my eyes and images from last night come rushing through my head. I nod my head, letting Dr. Cowell know that I remember and say, “I was on my way home from my boyfriend’s house when I felt someone read-end me and my car started spinning around in circles. Then, everything went back. When I woke up, I was in a dark room and long story short my ex, Brad and his friend Zach, they…” I blink back the tears.
Dr. Cowell puts a hand on my arm. “Go on.”
“They raped me countless times.” I feel the doctor’s hand tighten around my arm. “I couldn’t take it anymore. Brad left a pocket knife in the room so I took it and you know the rest.” By now, tears are streaming down my face.
“Don’t worry, Samantha. We will catch them.” The doctor leaves the room and minutes later, Tyler comes in.
“Tyler…” I whisper and start to cry. He comes running to me and holds me tight. “I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. I thought they were going to keep me locked up until I died so I decided to kill myself. Tyler, I’m sorry.” I sob uncontrollably while Tyler still has a firm grip on me.
“Sam, babygirl, listen to me. Don’t apologize, ok? What matters is that you’re here and alive. I love you and I won’t leave you alone, ok?”
