Love Rivals 4
It's been a week since I promised Sam I would come see her again, I've been bedridden for the past 4days, my parents both said that I should stay some more to fully regain my strength before doing anything else, I sighed, in frustration thinking about Sam and wondering if she's going to be upset I broke my promise or is she going to be mad that I didn't even show up. My mind started filling up with 'what ifs', and most of them were concerning Sam, 'What if she stopped talking to me?, what if she likes me and stops because she said she can't trust me after my unavailability?, what if she had planned something that day and I ruined it by not coming, what if she is still waiting and hoping for me to come over and I'm here lying on the bed, what if...', at that moment my head was hurting, so I decided to take some pain killers and rest, I would go to sam's home tomorrow, I hope.
It's the day I will go to sam's house and fortunately for me, I felt alot better than the past few weeks for which I've been sick and bedridden, I thanked my parents and siblings for taking care of me, I hugged my parents and kissed Chelsea goodbye before heading to Sam's house. As I was walking, I whistled and shadow neighed from his shed and started racing towards me, I was still walking when he caught up to me and slowed down, I got on and headed to Sam's house, hoping and praying for Sam to still be waiting for me, I didn't let my mind take over and control the situation, otherwise I would have started panicking and thinking of words to say, I just decided to act natural and explain to her why I didn't come, if she asks, but if she doesn't I will cover up my absence with some excuse, all these things and more I thought as I and shadow increased the speed withghe intention of getting there early and spending time with Sam and maybe, just maybe, her family too, I wanted to make up for my absenteeism, I just hope it's not too late.

SAM:
It's been a week since I saw Alex and I've hardly had any sleep. I've been thinking about him constantly, wondering if he truly likes me, or he was just trying to get in my head, and not in my heart, I wondered why he didn't come and something came into my mind, the suggestion Dad had given during dinner, what if Sam had gotten sick?, but no he was fine that day I met him, what if he was busy, but he could have at least hinted it before leaving, what if his parents, prevented him from coming, there's a possibility that happo, and with that I staroto freak out, I can't stay another day without at least seeing Alex's face, I might die if I didn't see him, so I silently prayed that he would come today, I had not eaten anything yet, I had lost my appetite after Alex's absence that first day, patiently and hopefully waiting for his arrival, it was as if the key to my hunger was tied to the possibility of Alex's arrival, so I waited and waited for a sign that he was going to come.
Just then, I heard a familiar neigh that made my heart beat increase, I stood up and grasped my hands together tightly, waiting to see if I was actually hallucinating, after some time, and no sign of a horse or Alex, I decided that if I don't see Alex again I might actually run mad.
Disappointed, I turned to enter into the house, when I heard it again, and as I turned around, there he was, the man that was making me feel numb, as I saw him, it felt as if I was released from a prison that held my heart for years, only this time it was for days, with that relief, I fell to the floor, seeing him race over on his horse, and with that, I closed my eyes, giving in to the darkness, I felt someone carry me, and I was glad he came.

ALEX:
I saw Sam for the second time, since a couple of days, but it felt like we've been separated for ages, I'm guessing she must have been feeling the same because I saw her crumble to the floor, and fear suddenly gripped me, I raced with shadow as fast as I could, I just had the chance to see her, I can't lose her now, no, I won't lose her, I thought to myself as I approached her, I caressed her cheek and then lifted her up and into the house, I called, to see if anyone was at home, and then I heard Sam parents whispering, before coming out, they saw me, and smiled. As sam's mum wanted to move, their attention moved from me to Sam on my arms, they both gave me confused looks, so I took it as my cue, I dropped Sam on the couch and narrated how I saw her falling to the floor after she saw me, "I thought maybe she was not feeling well so I brought her here", I finished, her mother ran and hugged me, and her father gave me a handshake, "Thank you, she hasn't eaten this morning, she hasn't eaten firghe past couple of days, since the day you didn't come, she was waiting for you and refused to eat, so I guess that's why she collapsed. And this is actually the second time you're rescuing her again, we owe you our thanks", Sam's father said, I nodded and looked over at Sam, and then a thought strikes into my head, she was waiting for me, "Why was she eagerly waiting for me?, I didn't specify when I was going to come.", they looked at each other and then back at me, something tells me that there is something behind those looks, "You're going to ask Sam that yourself", Sam's mum said, I nodded and she walked back to the direction that she and her father came out from, Sam's father said to ask if I needed anything, that they'll be here to help, I nodded and he also left to meet his wife, and with that, I and Sam were left alone, I was wondering why Sam was so eager to see me, and then all the what ifs came rushing to me, I pushed them to the back of my mind, I was focused on being here until she resuscitates, she was even more beautiful in her sleeping, I looked at her from her head and landed on her lips, allghe way to her succulent breasts, her flat stomach and attractive thighs, her smooth skin, she was a goddess incarnate, I don't know what she would want with a guy like me, I went back to her lips and I thought of kissing her passionately, but decided against it, of I wanted to kiss her, I want it to be intimate and with her fully aware of it, and with that I held her hand and layed beside her, hugging her as I was beside her.
