Silent Love -2

⚠️- Mentions of rape.

(Colby)

I wasn't excited for school, I was back to having no body and being forced to sit next to Sam in my first hour. Of course I love that I get to sit by Sam, but I knew the thought of him ignoring him hurt.

When I got there, Sam sat there looking nervous. Corey wasn't there, I didn't know if he was just late or something but I knew this was my shot. I hurried to my seat and tapped Sam's shoulder. He looked at me, then rolled his eyes looking away.

"Sam, please I did kiss Jake- he kissed me actually and I just went with it because it was whatever. I felt something... when we kissed I-I felt like.." I knew it was risky to admit what I was about to, but he needed to know. 'I fell in love with you.' I signed.

Sam's eyes widened, he grabbed my arm and pulled me out of class after we both grabbed our back packs. We hurried down the halls, and even passed Corey who called Sam's name as we passed. I didn't doubt that he was following. Sam pulled me out of the school and around to the side, he cupped my hands in his cheeks and kissed me.

I felt it again, I felt the burst of heat in my cheeks and rapid heart beat. I felt the feeling of contentment and perfection. "What the hell is going on?" Both of our heads snapped to see Corey and Jake looking at us.

'Guys, we're good now. He explained.' Sam signed.

"Explained what? Damn it Sam, you always do this shit. Maybe if you would've listened to us last time you'd still be fucking speaking! It's going to happen all over again!" Corey bursted, angrily. I was confused, not understanding what he meant.

'Fuck you.' Sam signed, tears filled his eyes. 'You promised to never bring that up. To never speak about it again.'

"What's going on?" I asked.

Corey's gaze snapped to me, "Don't worry about it." He looked back at Sam. "I'm trying to protect you Sam. You thought he was good too, remember? And he fucking-" Before Corey could finish, Jake out his hand on Corey's shoulder. "No, Jake he needs to hear it instead of trusting every fucking person that says they love him."

'You guys say you love me, friendly yes, but you do and I trust you. Should I not trust you, are you like him, too? You make everyone else out to be bad but what about you?' Sam signed.

"Corey!" I said, grabbing his attention. "I'm in love with him. Please.. believe me. I know we've only just met but I feel like I've known him my entire life."

"You know what, you don't know shit. We were here for him through everything. We know what he's been through and why he shouldn't trust people like you!" Corey shouted.

'Corey, please leave.' Sam signed, being calm.

"Are you fucking serious?" Corey snapped. Sam simply nodded and Corey stomped away. Jake went after him, saying sorry before walking away.

"Sam.. I know it's not my place to.. to ask. But what happened? Why don't you talk?" I asked him nervously. 

He led me over to a near by tree, we both sat out bags down. We sat down and he leaned back against the tree and gulped. Sam opened his mouth, as if he was trying to talk. Only small groans and noises coming out. I grabbed the water bottle out of my bag and handed it to him. "Don't strain yourself."

Smiling, 'I haven't spoken in a year.' He signed. Once again, he took a deep breath, and tried to speak. After a few noises he finally got out, "I-" He coughed and took a drink. "E-E.." He tried more and began crying. I quickly moved to hug him.

"Sam, you're doing good. Don't strain yourself, you're vocal cords aren't used to-" Sam lifted his hand to stop me.

'I have to, I need to tell you.' Sam signed.

I nodded, "Take a drink when you need to, it'll help."

He then nodded back, and tried again. "E-E-Ex." He stopped and took a drink. He waited a minute and began again. "B-B-Boyf-f-fri-" He stopped and coughed, blinking away tears.

"Ex-boyfriend?" I said putting the words together. 

He nodded, and took a drink. "A-Abused."

"He... He abused you?" I almost whispered. Once again he answered with a nod.

'Give me a minute.' He signed, taking a deep breath and a few more drinks. "H-H-He.. a-a-nd frie-e-ends."

"Him and his friends abused you?" I asked he shook his head. "He abused you.. then him and his friends?" I guessed.

He nodded, coughing, taking a drink, and continuing. "F-F-Four o-o-of th-th-them." He coughed more and took a drink. I saw Sam look behind me, so I turned to see Elton, Jake, and Corey gawking at us.

"Is... is he speaking?" Elton spoke in disbelief. 

I nodded, and they smiled walking closer. "Sam, are you okay, does it hurt?" Jake asked.

"Y-Y-Yes." Sam stuttered. I heard the three laugh with joy, bright smiles plastering on their faces. 'I need to tell you. They know, so they can stay.' Sam signed.

"Okay." I answered. The other three boys sat down around us, Corey still remaining silent. "You said 'four of them.' His four friends?"

Sam nodded, took a drink, and began. "P-P-Party. D-D-Drugged m-m-me."  He sighed, and wiped away tears.

"Sam, you don't have to tell me. I can tell it hurts too much so-"

"N-Need t-to." He interrupts. "Th-They.. r-raped me." He said. I hugged him quickly, feeling his wet tears on my shoulders. He was crying harder now, wrapping his arms around my neck. I rubbed his back, trying to calm him down.

"I won't let anyone hurt you. Ever again. I'll always protect you. I love you, Sam. I love you." I whispered

He pulled away, and took my hands in his. He leaned in and kissed me sweetly. "I-I," He took a deep breath. "I-I-I lo-lo-love y-you." He stutters. I laughed, very happily.

I pulled him to me and smashed our lips together. After we all stood up, and Elton, Jake and Corey hugged Sam. They had a really happy moment.

"I'm sorry Sam. I just wanted what's best for you.. I just didn't know the best for you was Colby." Corey said laughing.

'It's okay.' Sam signed. 'My throat hurts.' Elton patted him on the back, and laughed.

Then I saw Sam smile, a very real and genuine smile. It was so incredibly beautiful, I never wanted to see him sad. I didn't want him to ever lose that smile.

That's when I made a promise, I would make sure he always had that smile. That I would protect him, and he's always be happy.
