Chapter Twenty Six: Samantha Green Vs. John Green (Part 1)
Sam's P.O.V
I stood in front of the mirror. I was just about to shower. I looked at my hair and let my eyes slowly scanned my body. I knew so much could go wrong today. What is my dad was able to actually prove something. The past few days, my lawyer, or should I say Niall's lawyer, has helped collect a lot of evidence. I was confident that we would win. I mean my own blood was there. I thought of Niall. He hasn't left my side this whole time. Anytime the lawyer, James Crook, wanted to meet with me, Niall came. He told me that the blood turned out to be mine and that the D.N.A on the beer bottles were his. I stared in the mirror. I had looked so much better than three months ago. My cuts and bruises went away, with the exceptions of the recent ones that Amanda had given me. I took myself out of my thoughts and went into the shower to carry on with them. I ran shampoo through my hair slowly as I remembered the words my dad said in his statement. I remember when he told me that he just wanted me to come home. I laughed at his lies and shaved my legs as I thought more. I wonder what my life would have been like if I didn't run into Louis, or didn't run from my dad at all. I stepped out of the shower once I felt I was properly clean. I smiled and started drying my hair. Niall opened the door and grabbed his tooth brush. He wrapped his arm around my waist and started getting ready. I continued to blow my hair straight and watched as he did his hair and stood their shirtless. I stared at him for a bit until he looked at me.
"You good, babe?" He laughed. I felt butterflies fly throughout my stomach. I mean he always says things like 'babe' and 'baby' without even realizing it. I giggled and felt my hair was dry. I ran a brush through it and started brushing my teeth. Once I was done, I realized Niall was just waiting for me and watching me. I did my usual makeup and he smiled as I wiped mascara over my eyelashes. He held the phone in front of us and took our picture. His phone background was one of us at a dinner a few weeks back. He was kissing my cheek and I was posing like a complete idiot. I walked into our room and pulled on a long black skirt and a white top. I looked so awkwardly professional for an 18 year old. I was also being sued, so nothing is going to be normal. I watched as Niall buttoned up his dress shirt. I put on heel and he put on a tie. The boys were going when it actually started. We had to be there an hour earlier, to talk about how it'll be set up and all that. Once I decided we looked okay to be taken seriously in court for an 18 and 20 year old, we left. Niall told Liam we were leaving and that made Liam make everyone start to get ready. We got into a car that Niall had asked for and started the drive.
"Do you think it'll blow over quickly?" I asked.
"Hopefully. I can't believe he even tried to say that this was all your doing. That just pisses me off so much. Just know that anything that happens, I'm staying by you. I don't believe anyone who isn't you. I know this'll all work out and your father will be imprisoned." He said. I intertwined our fingers as we talked more about how it should hopefully all work out.
"We're here, Mr. Horan." The driver said. Niall thanked him and opened the door. Immediately, flashes started going off.
"Niall, where's Sam? Are you leaving her? Too much for you two to handle as a couple?" They instantly started, but stopped when Niall held his hand out and I took with a smirk. We thought it'd be a good idea to pose for photos, but not answer anything. He put his hand on my back and lead my inside.
"Ah, Ms. Green, Mr.Horan, right this way." Mr. Tarner said. We walked into an office with four chairs. James Crook was already at one of them, then there was the two chairs for Niall and I. Niall led me to my seat and then sat down himself.
"So, as you can see Samantha, you're being sued. With all the evidence, which is all completely allowed to be used today in court, we should be able to prove Mr. Green wrong." James said.
"Now, you will be asked a serious of questions, shown different things, asked about your past and even your mother. Also your father's girlfriend, Amanda, is here to support him, and may be asked questions." David said. I can't believe this is happening.
"Now, what is somehow Sam loses this?" Niall asked, while putting his hand on my knee. I looked at the two men in front of me and waited for an answer.
"Probably prison for a year, along with charges for underage substance abuse." David answered. I looked at Niall as my eyes grew wide. He tightened his grip on me and I tried so hard to keep my tears back. Imagine being taken from Niall for a year. This'll look so bad on him too. 'World sensation dates inmate'. I couldn't do that to him. He must've read my mind because he turned to me.
"We won't lose." He whispered. I nodded at him and listened as David and James told me things to say, when to say it and things to not answer to. This was real. This was actually happening. I zoned out as I heard my boyfriend talking and reading over papers. I was staring into space thinking about everything that could change my life in just a few short hours. Niall eventually pulled me up and I snapped out of my world. I shook their hands and we walked to the court room.
"Are you ready?" Niall asked me. He kissed me softly and pulled me into his chest. I took in our moment of freedom, before it could all be stripped away from me.We stood at the table and I saw him. The man who destroyed my life. I couldn't believe this was happening. I stared at Niall who had a sorry look in his eyes because he couldn't hold me and tell me it was going to be okay. I made eye contact with my dad. He smirked at me thinking that this wa actually going to go his way. I knew that together, Niall and I were too strong. The boys walked in, along with Isabella, Danielle and Eleanor. I saw them give me a weak smile and a couple of 'Stay Strong' and 'I love you' were mouthed. Niall didn't look scared. My amazing boyfriend. He didn't even have to be here. This wasn't anyone's fault but mine. He stood next to me, not afraid of everything that was going to be said. He put his hand on my back. It was only a matter of minutes before all hell broke loose. I kept thinking of Niall and I. The boy was amazing, nothing I deserved. That's when my dad and I made eye contact again, holding it this time. I stared at him with an icy look. If looks can kill. If I could only just tell him how much of a disgrace he is and how he isn't the man he think he is. What was even worse is Amanda was standing on his side acting as if he was an angel from Heaven. Our eyes were still connected as I sent him looks of hate. He didn't seem to care. Didn't even stop to think that he was a complete jackass to do this. He was going up against me! The one that he had created, but also torn down.
"All rise." The officer said. Niall and I stood up and watched as Amanda and my dad did the same. A judge walked in and looked at us all before nodding. James was next to me and my father had some shit lawyer because David dropped out of the case. David was sitting behind me and was going to try and help the best he could. The judge spoke.
"Welcome to the case of Miss Samantha Green VS. Mr. John Green."
Yes, it's short, but that's because the actual trial wont be starting until next chapter. I figured this would be considered part 1 because it explains stuff and shows who each person is. Thanks for reading and please comment and vote x
