Chapter 7 Submitted Friday night. So expect it soon. It will probably take a few days. But trust me its on the way. Here's a preview.
Sunday came and went and before he knew it Monday was
already here. Within a few hours they
were going to be on the road, and on the way home. He felt both excitement and
fear. Both his family and hers were bound to notice the tension between them.
It wanted to talk to her so bad. Yet she never returned his calls, or replied
to his messages. So he was hoping that when he saw her tomorrow, she would be
more open to talk to him. Until then he busied himself with packing. After an
hour or so. He had everything packed up and ready to go sitting neatly near the
door to his room.
He sat down at his desk to ponder over ways to get Samantha
to talk to him. After much thought, he finally figured out a way for her to at
least listen to his words. Though it was a bit childish and a bit of a long
shot, it was worth a try. He literally had nothing to lose. Without her in his
life already was a living nightmare. Pulling out a sheet of paper, he collected
his thoughts and prepared to put his feelings into words on paper.
Sammy,
Please don’t be angry with
Caroline. But I had to find a way for you to hear me out. I can’t begin to
describe how hard it’s been on me to not be around you. But I've dealt with it because
it’s what you want. And Samantha I want you to know that I will do anything for
you. No matter what it is, I would do it. For you. It’s taking me a long time
to realize just how selfish of a person I was. More towards you than anyone
else. I’m so sorry for the way I've acted. It was a fucked up way to treat
someone you love. I've learned from my mistakes. Since we are going home today, I was hoping
that we could work on getting back to our friendship. It would be the perfect time, to get back to
how things used to be. Please just consider this Samantha. I will give you space,
or anything else that you require. If you are reading this, know that I love
you. That will never change.

He felt foolish for resorting to writing letters as if they
were in middle school. But that wouldn't stop him from giving it to Caroline,
so she could pass it on to Samantha. Hopefully over the course of the long
drive she will think things through and allow him the opportunity to ease his
way back into her heart. Pulling out his phone. He dialed Caroline.
“Hello.”
“Hey Caroline its Ian.
There was a pause over the line.
“I know that I am the last person you want to talk to. But I
wanted to ask for a favor.” He stated. After a lengthy silence.
“
Ian never put words in my mouth. I never said I didn't want
to talk to you, cause if I didn't you would know it.” She paused for an effect.
“What kind of favor do you need?” She asked curiously.
Ian hesitated for a second before he pushed forward. “I’m
trying to get Samantha to open up towards me. I've tried to get her to talk to
me, but it hasn't been working…”
“So, you want me to use my position as one of her best
friends to persuade her too.” Caroline cut in.
Ian was silent with guilt. “I wrote a letter. If you could
give it to her I would really appreciate it.”
He waited for the joke that was sure to come, from his
admission. However Caroline shocked him.
“Okay.”
“You’ll do it?” he questioned.
Caroline let out a deep sigh. “Ian I said I will give it to
her. But let me tell you this. I’m not going to feed her any bullshit. I won’t
boost you up, just so she will believe that you've got your shit together.”
“Because I know you still have your issues. Samantha has a
few of her own. So my point is that I love Samantha and I want her to be happy.
Don’ screw this up. If you do, then you don’t deserve her and you’re on your
own.”
“I understand.”
“Alright, just give it to me tomorrow and I’ll get it to
her.” She hung up.
