Amber's P.O.V:
It's been a week since we had our talk and Sammy told me to go. Everyday is the same, she leaves before I wake and returns late, checks on me thinking I'm asleep when I'm not because this is the only time when she is really here and next to me.
I was watching a movie and checking my cell when it rang, the caller I.d read an unknown number. First I didn't want to pick up but then I thought it might be Sammy so picked up but it was someone else,
"Hello?"
"Amber? Honey? Is that you?"
"Mom?" shit... it was my mom. I forgot about the mail. Damn it.
"Honey.. Oh Lord.. Are you alright? I had recieved this mail that you were kidnapped and they needed money and--"
"How much?" I stopped my mom and asked her straight
"what do you--"
"Mom! how much?"
"20 grand. But Amber are you alright?
what is happening? "
"I'm fine mom, It was just a prank. April fool! " I laughed sarcastically
"But honey it's November"
"Haha.. Thanks for reminding"
"Okay honey, I'll be back for Christmas and we'll talk again.Bye honey"
"Yeah.. and for a second I thought you actually cared."
Before she could say anything, I cut the line and put my cell down. I held my head in my hands, thinking. I decided that no matter what, I'll ask Sammy today about it. That's it.
It was late night when I saw the door's knob turn and she entered. I was sitting on the stairs waiting for her when she entered, she looked at me and sighed. I'm pretty sure she must have seen my angry face because I really am f*****g angry right now.
"So, 20 grand huh?" I asked without hiding any sarcasm in my tone
"What?" she looked surprised
"Who is it that you wanna save ? Girlfriend " her eyes shot up and met mine, acid in my voice clear.
"Go go bed Amber. I'm tired" her voice... She finally said my name after all this time. I didn't even realize how much I missed it until now.
"f**k you! answer my f*****g question, who is it that f*****g b***h you wanna save? who is so f*****g important that you'd do something so stup---"
"Shut-up.." she shouted at me, shutting me up, "Just shut-up... Don't you say like that about her.. You get that?. Nobody says anything like that about her, ever. "
I couldn't speak another word because when I saw her face I saw pure anguish and raw rage. I got scared and before I know or even stop it the tears started falling down my eyes. Nobody has ever talked to me that f*****g way in my whole life, ever. I ran upstairs without saying anything.
That's it. That is f*****g it. Why the f**k am I even trying? there are so many girls trying to get with me. I am f*****g Amber, people wanna talk to me, girls would do anything to just get my f*****g number, I am a f*****g celebrity out there and she thinks she can treat me like that?. No f*****g way. I'm done being this pathetic person who feels something for this f*****g i***t who doesn't even know what she wants herself. I'm gonna leave tomorrow. That's it.
Sammy's P.O.V:
s**t! that's all I could come up with remembering my stupid reaction. I have to talk to her. I made her cry again, I shouted at her. How could I?. My guilt was eating me alive when I decided to go upstairs and talk to her. She was laying in bed with her body turned other side where I couldn't see her beautiful face. I waited for a while and then I asked clearing my throat,
"uh- Amber?. Can we talk?"
"Get the f**k out of here" she said, her voice cracking. She's still crying.
"Amber. I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to--"
"I said get the f**k out of here." She screamed. Not once turning around and gathering her body in a fetal position.
"Okay... I'm sorry. Take your time." I said and turned around. I wanted to leave but I remembered the time when I was crying in such way and all I wanted was someone to just stay, even when I told them to go, I never really wanted that. Maybe Amber is doing that too. But, should I?. What if she really means it? What if she actually wants me to go?.
There was a war going on between my heart and my brain. I had been listening to my brain for so long that I forgot that my heart ever had a say too, but today, my heart won. I walked towards her, got on the bed and laid next to her. I could feel my whole body trembling by mere thought of touching her but I just couldn't see her like this. I leaned on her and hugged her from back, just trying to hold her and tell her that I was there for her. She stayed that way for a min or two and then she quickly turned around and just hid in my body. I quickly wrapped my arms around her and covered her. She is so small and yet so warm. I let her cry, just holding her and gently stroking my hand on her head. Soon she was better and I could feel her slow breathing. She fell asleep right then and there, in my arms, like I was some sort of safe heaven for her. When I knew, the reality was far from it.
I wanted to see her face, my heart was aching for it and when I tried to move I noticed how her hands had grabbed my shirt it a tight grip like she was afraid I might leave again. I hugged her again, more closer this time. This girl, who I literally kidnapped, has a complete control over my heart now.
I never thought I'd feel this way again but here she is in my arms making me feel again, challenging me. It feels like my heart was dead for so long and she has given it life again. But in such short time? how is that even possible? how can I feel so strongly towards her when it hasn't even been a month since she's came into my life.
I don't know how it happened or why or anything. I just know that I can't see this girl in pain. It's like I can physically feel her pain , like we're the same being. I won't hurt her, ever again. If she thinks that I'm her safe heaven, I'd do anything to be one.
