BEAUTIFUL BEAST.

He cares.

Samantha's P.O.V

I stand and balance my slim body at the side of the door frame, I frown at Jake who woke me up from my peaceful sleep with his screaming. He is giving me a confused expression before he looks away as if he didn't just wake me up or he hasn't just promised his dad that he is going to keep me by his side, what does that supposed to mean? What is he up to exactly?

"what do you mean about you won't let me off your side?" I interrogate while staring at him who is still looking away, avoiding my presence. He hums as if he didn't hear what I asked, "you heard me right Jake" I snap with a serious look, now he is looking back at me, but his eyes are not looking at mine directly. "how long have you been standing there?" he asks as he runs his fingers on his hair "long enough" I state with an attitude, I don't know where did I get the courage to give him an attitude, he is capable of slaughtering me this minute but here I am acting as if I know the guy.

By knowing his name doesn't mean I know him, just because he took me out of that place it doesn't make him a good guy. Even though he had told me that his father is forcing him to be bad doesn't mean it is true, after all, the phrase says 'like father like son' I shouldn't be trusting him like I do, it's my damn mind not me.

"please come down Sam" he says smoothly. Wait, did he just call me Sam? I know a few minute ago I was not easy with him but now he just smothers everything, he is playing tricks. Why did he call me by my pet name? who gave him that right? right now I need to be strong and not fell for his charms, I am angry and that's it, I need answers this minute, but the truth is my heart and mind wouldn't let me and I am not liking that not even a bit. I frown from the hearing of that coming out of his beautiful voice, ok I need to stop hallucinating and do what is right. "how can I come down while I'm being kept hostage Jake?" I snap.

"don't say that, no one is keeping you hostage, but someone is keeping you away from danger" he says slowly as he attempts to hold my hands, but I flinch away from his touch which I so wish I could get every second but not now, not while I'm angry at him. Wait, am I angry at him or I want to be angry at him because it sounds right if I am angry at him? "but I heard you say- "I am being cut off by his alluring tone "no, it is not what you think Sam ahm Samantha" he stutters at the last statement. "it's ok, you can call me Sam, my friends call me Sam and my parents used too" I murmur but a shaky voice comes up at the mentioning of my parents calling me Sam.

I see a sympathetic expression from him, and this is when I allow him to hold my hands as I don't flinch or back up, I need that touch because it is smooth and smothers everything. From the hands it goes to a warm embrace of his which he is pressing me in, as I bury my face at the crock of his neck and sniffle. Slowly and awkwardly, we both pull back after a few moments of holding each other tightly on each other's arms. I jog up the stairs after I awkwardly wished him a good night and he awkwardly wished me back with a small smile.

I get inside to my so called room and glance at the watch on the night stand and realise that its almost midnight and I just can't believe I'm still up and thinking of taking a hot bath, really when Jake hugged me I felt a bit embarrassed because the last time I met water was approximately two weeks or even three but now it's too late for that , I climb up back to the big and cosy bed and slip into the blankets and closed my eyes as I enjoy the warmth of the comforts.

****

I feel a light through my closed eyes and I strangle to open them due to the strongness of the sunrises through the curtains so I turn to the side where the sun isn't shining and I get to open my eyes and I am immediately welcomed by a note on the night stand that I am facing,. Slowly I roll over and bring my body up in a sitting position as I extend my hand to the side and grabs it as I read mentally, "morning Sam, I went out to get some stuff just make yourself at home and please stay indoors, I didn't lock you in because I didn't want you to think otherwise so please do me this favour and stay indoors until I come back, and I have made breakfast for you" I read the note and trails my eyes down below the paper and it reads "Jake" I smile as I read the last part.
