You're My Only Obsession

Chapter Ten - Scarlet

In the morning I woke up to Sam shouting from down stairs. My earring was fuzzy but I could work out what he was saying.

“He was my best-friend mum. You really think I could get over that,” he screamed.

“Sam can you calm down please, Scarlet will hear you” his mum said calmly.

“You really think I can just erase all the memories I’ve had with Jason because some miracle has happened” there was smash from down stairs and I jumped out of bed.

“Samuel Rolland Micheal. You will not smash anymore of my things and you will treat me with respect.” His mum’s voice rose suddenly. I walked out onto the landing and saw Danny sitting there with wide eyes. His little body curled up into a ball.

I walked up to him, sat down and pulled him onto my lap. He was shaking and crying.

“I’m scared,” he said hugging me tightly. I pulled him closer to me, covering his ears.

“Jason was my brother, your son. Don’t you remember him? I guess not as you can easily take the memories we all had together” Sam’s voice broke.

“Of course I remember him Sam. Please calm down” she was calm again.

“I don’t think you can mum. All because I have Scarlet and that she makes me happy. Doesn’t mean you can suddenly take all these down” he snapped.

“Sam we have to get over what happened. It was no one’s fault…” His mum went to continue but Sam butted in.

“GET OVER IT! Ha. Get over that I killed my brother. It is my fault.” Another thing smashed and I heard his mum scream. Then the front door slammed shut.

Danny was still shaking and wouldn’t let go of me. He gripped to me tightly. I was too scared to go see what he had done to make his mum scream.

But I built up the courage to walk down-stairs.

Danny went to lift his head up, but I put it back on my shoulder.

“Don’t look up okay.” I whispered to him, he nodded and stayed where he was.

When I walked in the kitchen, my eyes widened. There was glass everywhere. His mum was leaning on the side crying.

I decided to put Danny in the playroom, and I told him not to move.

When I walked back in the kitchen, Beth was shaking whilst trying to clean up the mess Sam had left. I touched Beth’s hand, and she jumped.

“I’m sorry you had you hear that” her eyes were bloodshot from crying.

“It’s okay, I put Dan in the playroom” I could hardly talk. So I kneeled down and helped cleaning up.

“Thank you Scarlet” she gave me a sad smile. “Jason was my adopted son. He and Sam were friends before I started taking care of him. But his parents were in a horrible accident. Jason was left with no family. So we took him in.,” she said shakily.

Sam didn’t tell me that, I mean I understand why he didn’t. It is obviously hard for him.

“Scarlet go look after him. He’s at the cemetery around the corner. Where Jason was buried. I’ll clean this up” she smiled at me and I got up slowly. Then shut the door quietly.

I ran towards the cemetery, I just wanted to hug him. I want to help him.

When I got there, I saw him knees to chest, curled up.

I walked slowly to him, sitting down behind him. I wrapped my arms around him and he jumped but then burst into tears.

“I miss him so much Scarlet,” he sobbed into me.

“I know you do” I rubbed his back. He was shaking violently. I felt a lump form in my throat and I started crying. I hate seeing Sam like this, hurt.

“I’m sorry, please don’t be scared of me. I just got angry.” He sobbed louder.

“Oh Sam, I’m not scared of you. Never think that. Come here” I pulled him onto my lap, pulling him tightly against me.

After he had stopped crying and shaking. He looked at me, eyes red and sore.

“Tell me about him” I said softly to him. He took a breath in and tensed.

“He was funny, always made me laugh when I was in a bad mood. When my dad left us, he helped me no matter what. My confidence was low so I got bullied at school. He stuck up for me all the time, even got in a fight the silly bastard.” Sam chuckled sadly at the memory. “He got a broken nose because of that but he loved it. Both of our dreams were to be in the army together, so he started training me. He built my confidence back up, made me strong. We never thought that dream would have got him killed.” He took a deep breath, and then it went silent for a few minutes.

Then he continued, “His favorite band was NF. I saved my money up once and took him to one of his concerts. It was so much fun. Both of us sang along to all his songs. He cried when the song ‘Traumas’ came on. The song always meant a lot to him. That was the day we promised to always protect each other. That brothers will always protect brothers. So the song became personal to me as well.” a tear went to roll down his face, but I leaned in and kissed it away.

“I’m sorry Sam,” I whispered.

“It’s okay Hun, I had the time of my life with him. Now I’ve met a miracle. I’ve made a promise to protect you and I’m going to keep it.” He kissed me softly. I was his miracle.

“I love you,” I said to him nervously. He looked at me in shock but a smile started to spread across his face.

“I love you too” He whispered before leaning in to give me a soft kiss.

When we got back to his mum’s, he told me to go play with Danny whilst he went to talk to his mum.

I nodded and walked into the playroom.

“Oh Sam” I heard his mum’s voice ring.

“I’m sorry mum” I heard Sam’s voice break. Then I couldn’t hear anything.

I saw Danny curled up on the sofa, watching some kid movie.

“What you watching?” I asked, sitting next to him.

“Cars. It’s awesome” he smiled widened when he looked at me, which made me smile. I’m glad he could get over what has happened. He is a bit young, to fully understand everything that has gone on or is going on.

“Hey Hun” Sam’s head popped out from the door an hour later, Danny fast asleep in ball. I smiled at Sam, knowing things had been sorted out.

“Hey”

Sam walked in the room, taking my hand, leading me towards the stairs. He took me into a brightly lit room, Colours and drawings filling the room. This was Sam’s room. The green room must have been Jason’s.

“I want to paint you. Well on you” Sam said giving a half smile, which made my insides twist.

“Really?” I blushed, my cheeks burning. His arms were around me instantly.

“You are so cute when you blush” he purred in my ear. “And yes I would love to, you are the most beautiful person I know.”

He laid me down on the floor slowly, hovering above me. He kissed me softly, slipping his hand down my side. He gripped the end of my top and lifted it over my head.

“Shouldn’t you take your top off, so you do get it messy” I said winking at him. I slid my hands up his shirt, pulling over his head. Suddenly he pulled me up, passionately kissing me. I kissed him back, feeling a fire build up in me.

He pulled away from the kiss, and then his hands went to my hip tugging on my jeans. He un-zipped them and started slowly taking off my jeans with my help and I did the same to him. Sam was then straddling me with just his boxers on. Couldn’t he feel my body warmth?

“God you’re so sexy” he leaned down and purred in my ear. Sam sat back up and leaned over, grabbing two paintbrushes, different colored paints and a glass of water.

I felt the cold wet paint dab at my stomach. I looked down and the Colour was yellow, Sam wasn’t looking at me but paying attention to what he was painting on me.

The dabbing had stopped and then the brush felt like it was making wiggly lines in one place of the stomach.

I closed my eyes, just thinking of Sam. How perfect he was, how he made me feel. He made me feel weightless and free. Sam made me truly happy. I love how much my heart races when he smiles. I’m glad I let him.

I felt the brush on my arm; he was using a different Colour now. It was red. There was a circle of back and red, and what looked like a stem were different shades of green. I smiled when I noticed he was painting a red rose on my arm. Sam painted quickly, never taking his eyes off what he was doing. He flicked through different paints. I felt wiggly line on my wrist.

Sam leaned back, looking at all the paintings and smiled. He then looked me in the eyes softly.

“Done” he breathed out. I really wanted to look at what he has done, so he lifted himself off of me and lead me to the long mirror on the wall.

It was beautiful, I gasped when I looked at myself. My stomach and chest was covered in back paint, with yellow white stars scattering it. There was writing that read.

“Look at the stars,

Look how they shine for you,

And everything you do.”

When I read it, a lump formed in my throat. It was a quote a from a song I have sung this week, he must have remembered it.

I turned my arm to see the red rose, with black writing under it.

‘You are my everything’

A tear rolled down my face and he smoothed it away. I then realized the one on my neck. I must have fell asleep when he did that one. It was of a small boat, and then there was a quote from my favorite book.

“No matter what happens to us,

everyday spent with you is the best

day of my life”

I smiled at us in the mirror, Sam looking over my head smiling back. “Thank you” I said whilst turning around.

“It’s okay, I’ve always wanted to paint you” he chuckled low. The laugh made me shiver. “You cold?” he chuckled again whilst pulling me up so my legs were wrapped around his hips. He sat down on the floor and started kissing me.

I reached down slightly, picking up a brush with paint on then swiping it cross his face. I laughed to see that the Colour was a bright pink. “You really just did that?” he smiled playfully at me. He grabbed a brush nearby, but I jumped up before he could get me. I swooped to the floor grabbing red paint and a paintbrush. But as I tried to get back up, his arms were around me covered in paint. I looked down at my body, which was now covered in his hand prints.

I turned around, splashing the red paint over his chest. Again diving to the floor but grabbing a pot of green paint. He pinned me to the ground, putting more paint on me, which also got him covered in it as well. I dipped my hand into the paint, and then playfully slapped his face. I grabbed more and literally threw it at him.

“Yes!” I cried.

“You are a cheeky one aren’t you?” he purred.

He pressed his body against mine, and I froze. His eyes were full of lust and a sexy smile crept at his mouth. When he kissed me it was soft and tender. He held my face with one hand, squeezing it lightly.

He kissed my cheek, then my jaw, finally making little kisses on my neck.

“Your skin is so soft” he whispered. His fingers trailed over the softness of my breast. When our lips met again it felt like the whole world stopped; all I cared about was him. The pounding of my chest echoed through my ears as we kissed passionately.

He hand roamed my curves whilst the other was tangled in my hair. His hand reached to my pants. He looped his fingers around it, pulling them down. I lifted my hips, allowing him to slide the pants down my legs and over my feet.

His fingers stroking my inner thigh, I parted my legs and whimpered, wrapping my arm around it back.

He pulled me close to him, kissing my stomach and slowly trailing upwards, over my chest, to my neck then my lips.

His lips caressed mine biting and teasing me.

He was hard as he lowered his boxers, then kicking them off his legs. I smiled at him as he stared into my eyes. He then sat up, leaned back to the draw behind him. He fumbled though the draw and retrieved a condom. Tearing it open, quickly rolling it on before coming back to hover over me. Sam picked up my legs, wrapping them about his waist. He looked at me as he moved himself inside me. Our lips met, kissing softly.

He moved slowly inside me, every thrust bringing a wave of emotion.

“Ohh” I moan, I couldn’t say a word because the pleasure was too much.

His movements started to speed up. I wanted to feel this forever. He kissed my neck, my body tensing as he began to peak. Then he released; his body jerking and he moaned loud.

He kissed my lips with passion, him still inside me. He held me in his arms and I didn’t want the moment to end.

“That was… amazing” I sighed. He chuckled confidently as I looked at him.

“You are amazing Scarlet” he whispered as he rolled onto his side, pulling me into an embrace. We lay there, my back against his chest, until we fell asleep. And I felt safe.
