Together in the End
New short story. Sam's getting the girl of his dreams.
As I lay next to my lover, the girl of my dreams, my soul mate I have flashbacks of how it all happened. How I finally saved her from her dreaded ex boyfriends. I'm going to tell you about only three of the Jerks that tried to break my Rachael's heart. Starting with Jerk number one.
Flashback....
"Hey there hot stuff." Rodney said as he walked up to Rachael in the hall way. This was our first year in high school. I stood pretending to mess around with my locker and listened. It just happened to be next to Rachael's locker.
"Um Hey Rodney.. What brings you over here." Rachael said as she she looked at her feet.
"I wanted to invited you" He put his hand under her chin and lifted it up so that she was looking at him. "To my party. Anyone who is anyone will be there.. Pleeeaassseeee." He begged. Yuck pathetic. What a hormonal loser.
"Aww.. I would love too." She blushed "Can my best friend Sam come?" She asked her eyes widening.
"Umm... Sure as long as your there I don't mind. Be there at 9 sharp." Rodney bent down and kissed her on the lips. It took everything i had not to grab the guy and punch him in the face and scream "SHE"S MINE JERK!"
"SWEET!! You hear that Sammy?! You can come to. I cant wait! Are you excited?!" Rachael gushed. I couldn't help but smile at her innocence. She was just so cute.
"Yeah that's great. I'll pick you up at 8:30" I told her shutting my locker as soon as the bell rang.
"Sweet. See you after school Sammy!" She yelled as she ran off to her class.
AT THE PARTY
After I picked up Rachael from her house (which she lived in since we were children) We drove to the party. And I must tell you that Rachael looked hot! Ha. She wore a black mini dress dress and black high heels. Her long blonde hair drapped over her shoulders. And by god She was wearing the heart necklace i bought her for her birthday last year. If it was possible I think I fell in more love with her just then.
"Hey I'm glade you could make it! Come over here with me and i'll show you to all my friends" Rodney said as he wrapped his arm around her waist. And with that they disappeared into the crowd of people. I walked around for about 20. I finally found her.
"Come on Rodney get off. You smell like beer. Come on get off." Racheal said as she was pushing Rodney (aka Jerk 1) away from her. It looked as if he was trying to kiss her and she said no. Way to go girl! Woo! I walked over to them.
"Shut up whore. Don't you want to become popular like me baby." Rodney said as he held her arms to her side preventing her from pushing.
That pissed me off. I walked over to him and I grabbed him by the front of his shirt and pulled him up. I pulled my fist back and punched him in the face. His nose bleed. I grabbed Rachael and pulled her along as we quickly walked out as a bunch of the Jerks friends surrounded him. When we got into the car and drove off it was quite. Then she thanked me for saving her and I gave her a kiss on the cheek and told her it was no problem. I dropped her off at home giving her a hug before I got back in the car and drove off.
That was only one of the few bad dates she had. The next one was a bit worse.
FLASHBACK
It was now our sophmore year. Middle of the year I should say. This would be Jerk Number 3. I sat in my seat waiting for class to began when the thug wannabe Kyle wade started talking to MY RACHAEL! The nerve of some people. Well Mr.. Thub-wannabe-Kyle walks up to Rachael and ask her to go to dinner with him. UGH I cant believe it. Although I ask her to dinner all the time and she goes with me. It still makes me mad! And I bet you can guess her answer... Ding Ding Ding.. Your right it was yes! Well Cause I care about her so much I drove her to the place where she was supposed to meet the guy. I walk her in being the concerning good friend that I am and when we get in there she looks around for him telling me I can go now. But I waited making sure she found him. When I spotted him I could tell this night was going to get a lot worse... He... Mr.. thug-wannabe-Kyle-now-cheater was there with His Girlfriend! Yeah that's right i said it... Girlfriend. Ms.. Hot-cheerleading-slut. I was to busy being angry about the fact that he brought his grilfriend here when he asked her out to go here that i didn't realize that I had zoned out. That is till I felt something small run into me and wrap their arms around my waist. It was Rachael. I felt so sad for her. We got back in my car and drove off to her house. She said Thanks and I kissed her cheek saying anytime.
It was breaking my heart to see her so sad these days. I loved her so much. She asked me to stay the night with her that night. Of course I did. I cuddled with her that night letting her cry on my shoulder about how she will never find someone to love her. In my mind I told her that I loved her and that is was all she needed. Then we could live happy. With each other. No one to mess it up or break her heart.
This next one is a bit harder to deal with.
FLASH BACK
She has been dating him for almost 1 year and a half. Its now Junior year. He I mean Jerk number 4 is always late for dates. And the worse thing is.. I think she is trying to avoid me. I over heard one of her friends telling her that if she kept hanging around me so much that she wont be able to find a boy friend. It broke my heart. I would see her kissing her boyfriend.. holding hands with him. Crying at the dates when he is late.. She is always looking for me but I can tell she is trying not to. She is trying to be strong. I just wish I could tell her to let me be strong for her or even with her.
"Sorry I'm late!" Chris said as he walked up to her and kissed her.. Oh how it urked me to see someone else kiss her. She must have said something he didn't like cause he smacked her in the face causing her to fall. I acted as if I was there ironically and I pushed him away as I knelt down to her and cupped her face in my hand. She hand a red hand print on her right cheek and tears were over flowing with tears. I got up and grabbed the Jerk and punched him in the nose and watched the blood flow from it. He staggered back and tried to hit me but four of his friends grabbed him and told me to get out and that they would handle it. I took Rachael by the hand and ran to my car. She put her head in her hands an sobbed.
"Sammy why does this always happen to me? Why am I always the one who is stood up? Why are you always there to save me? Why-" Rachael sobbed as she looked at me.
"Shh" I said as I placed a finger on her lips. "Them guys are Jerks. No one knows how to treat a real women. I'm there cause-" I stopped cause someone knocked on my window. I was just about to confess my love for her and someone KNOCKED ON MY WINDOW. Like WTF!!! It ended up being Jerk number 4! I rolled down the window and guess what I did.? That's right... (I mean of course your right if you guessed what I am I about to do!)
"WHAT DO YOU WANT YOU BASTARD!" I Screamed. There was I lot I would like to call him but... there is a lady present and that would be very rude.
"I want to know WHY THE HELL YOU STOLE MY GIRLFRIEND!!!" The Jerk yelled at me... Like he doesn't know..
"I didn't steal your girlfriend.. I don't have to and YOU SLAPPED HER IN THE FACE! I wasn't just going to let you smack my best friend around like she is a rag doll.. She is too good for that. Your breaking such a pretty girls heart who decided to take you in when there is a lot better men (me) out there! SO GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT." I said to him. I watched his face go from red to pale. HAI did one good on him.. Teach him to---
"YOU LITTLE F'IN NERD TALKING TO ME LIKE I'M SHIT!" Rodney... no whats his name ha Jerk number 4 was um... CHRIS ha I got it. Chris said to me as he punched me in the face. I heard Rachael's intake in breath. I felt her grab my arm as I grabbed his shirt and pulled.. But really as soon as I grabbed his shirt and she pulled my arm I looked her way pulling my arm hard hearing his face smash off the top of the car.
"Oh my god Sammy! Your nose its bleeding!!" Rachael said as she took my face in her hands.. I heard her chuckle when she heard Chris's face smash off the top of the car. That's when I let go and laughed with her. I looked down to where he feel and spit in his face and sped off buring my tires leaving a cloud of white smoke behind. She was laughing as she turned around in her seat to buckle up.
"Thanks Sammy. Your the greatest friend ever." This time she kissed my cheek. It made my heart beat so much faster i thought it was going to pop out of my chest.
Present time
I know I didn't mention this before but there is one more Boyfriend that I would like to talk about.
Me. As we drove home that night.. we held hands the whole time. I spent the night at her house and I finally told her that I loved her. And you know what.. She told me she loved me too!! I was so happy to hear this. Well That night ... well I guess you can say we became lovers. I dont want to ruin the time by going into detail about the experence. It was the greatest night of our lives. And just for the record we were both virgins till our junior year. We ended up moving in together and we've been together sence.. And now sadly I must say that this is coming to an end. Cause we are both now in our 90's and slowly dieing. As I held her in my arms that night feeling her slow rise and fall of her chest. It was that time. Time was finally coming to the end. I could feel our lives coming slowly to a halt.
"Rachael dear." I called to her.
"Y-yes Sam-sammy." She replied kissing my cheek.
"I l-love you with all of my heart."
"I lo-love you too. My soul mate. T-thank you for saving me." And with that last said we both passed slowly holding each other in our arms leaving four beautiful children and eight beautiful grandchildren in the world to find their own journeys and the love of their lives.
The end.
