All I Wanted (S.W)

Chapter 7

"Where do you want to go?" Matt asks me.
"I don't know. Somewhere to take my mind off of things." I say quietly as I sit with my head against the window.
"I guess all the texts must have broke you huh?" Matt asks me. I shake my head.
"It was the fact that Sam said that I was the most beautiful girl he's ever seen and that I was perfect. I'm neither of those things." I say to Matt.
"Nicole you are beautiful don't get me wrong. Don't say that to yourself." Matt says.
"I don't feel beautiful." I whisper to myself. My phone has stopped buzzing. I click the home button and it doesn't light up. Great it was off. I turn my phone on and it keeps buzzing again. I sigh and look through the texts. They stopped after Sam put out a message to everyone.
"Guys stop sending these pictures to Nicole. She and I never hooked up, she never paid me to kiss her, and we were both drunk and didn't realize what we were doing." I read out loud.
"What was that?" Matt asks me.
"Sam. He sent that text out to the whole school." I say showing him all the contact numbers.
"That's good! I bet everything will be better by Monday!" Matt says looking over at me. I nod slightly knowing something will happen no matter what on Monday. "Do you think you would ever explain why you hate Sam?" I nod.
"Only to him face to face." I say as Matt parks by the pier. I loved this place.
"Let's walk around." He says as he finishes up a text. We get out and walk down to the pier. "Be careful it's slick." He says as he helps me down from the rocks and onto the pier. I can smell the ocean breeze mixed with the smell of rain. I missed being down at the pier. It reminded me of old times. Times I would never have again.
"Do you think it's weird how a lake has a pier?" I ask him. He shakes his head.
"Here Im going to get something to drink. You want anything?" He asks me. I shake my head and continue walking. I was walking down the middle of the pier when someone shouts my name. I don't bother because they're is probably another 'Nicole' on this pier. I keep walking when someone grabs my hand.
"Nicole hey." It was Sam.
"Hey." I say quietly.
"Are you okay?" He asks me.
"After all the texts I got from people? Yea I'm perfect." I say to him sarcastically feeling that my eyes were burning from all the crying.
"Would it be weird if I asked to see them?" He asks me. I unlock my phone and show him some of the messages. "I'm sorry. I never meant for this to happen." He says to me. I nod.
"Neither did I." I say quietly as I look down.
"Look Matt brought you out here so I could talk to you. I really want to work things out." He says to me.
"You can try." I say as he leads me over to his car. "Where'd Matt go?" I ask him.
"He went home. He used that drink excuse to let me get to you." He says to me. I nod. "Just admit it you don't hate me." He says to me.
"But I do Sam. Tell me why you hate me and I'll tell you why I hate you." I say back to him.
"I don't hate you. Never have never will." He says to me. I was honesty shocked that he said that. "Your turn." He says to me.
"When we were little my dad gave me this teddy bear with a little zipper on the back. He told me to keep it and open the zipper when I turned 16. Well I never got to open that zipper because that was the same bear you took from me when we were little." I say to him. "And you say you don't hate me. You've bullied me for 11 years!"
"You hate me because of that? A teddy bear?" He asks me.
"Yes! Sam that was the same DAY my dad died! He knew he was gone and still gave me that bear. And when you were the only person I would talk to you went and ditched me and stole that from me! So if you think loosing my best friend and the only thing I had from my dad is stupid then I would forget your whole crush thing you have on me because-" I was cut off by Sam.
"I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt you. After I became friends with the jacks I guess I forgot about you." He says to me starting his car.
"And that's what pains me Sam. That you forgot about me. We were best friends until kindergarden. Then who was I left with? No one." I say looking out the window.
"Look I hope that were good now and maybe we could go back to being friends." He says quietly.
"I don't know Sam. After those things you said I don't know if our relationship would be the same."
"I'm willing to try. Anything to have you back in my life again." Sam says as we pull up to his house.
