Black and Blue
Chapter Eleven:- Epilogue, AKA One Last Visit
He sat there staring at her through the glass. Her knees shook as she sat down. Their eyes met and she felt her stomach turn, no longer in the way it had when he looked at her when they first met. But it wasn't that feeling of fear and hurt either. It turned because she knew she was safe and now she was in control. Then why did she still feel scared?
With a shaky hand, she reached up for the phone that would connect them one last time. She closed her eyes as she put the receiver to her ear. When she opened them, he was also holding a phone. The noise around them died and all she heard was him.
"Hello Sammy." He smiled at her. His voice was cold and she hated that.
"Adam." She nodded.
"I don't suppose you've come to set me free?" He laughed slightly.
"Not even." She said with no joke in her voice. "You tried to kill me," She said. "And I want to know why."
"Because I wanted to teach you a lesson, the same lesson I taught Tammy." Sam's eyes went wide. She hadn't known he'd done this to another girl. Tammy had moved away four months ago… and now she knew why.
"What?" Sam shook her head confused.
"I loved you and what did you do? How did you repay me?" He asked. "You lie to me, you sneak behind my back with that Phantom boy and you disobey me."
"You never loved me." She said with tears welling up in her eyes. It hurt to be near him at all. "If you did, you wouldn't have done this," She lifted up her shirt that covered up her arm to show the bruise that still looked somewhat fresh. "Or this," She pulled down her shirt collar to reveal a bite mark that was fading. "Or this," She showed him the scar from the stitches in her side.
"I'm sorry." He said his eyes cold and heartless.
"No you're not." She shook her head. "You're smiling, happy about what you did to me."
"Sam, you have to understand." He said putting his hand up to the glass. "I changed you."
"Yeah! You made me black and blue!" She yelled at him. A single tear rolled down her cheek and she calmed herself down. She placed her hand up on his. All that separated them was the glass. "I'm saying it one last time," She removed her hand and glared at him. "Good-bye Adam."
"You promised to make it up to me." He said before she hung up. "Make it up to me now."
Sam hung up the phone and stood still staring at him. She saw him hit the desk with his fist. When he did, she jumped slightly and she snapped back to reality. The noises around her started again. She turned away to see Danny who was smiling at her.
She ran into his arms and embraced him. Tears slowly spilled from her eyes and he held her closer to him. Sam closed her eyes and when she opened them, she was convinced that a new life would start, and it did.
I have to say that I loved writing this story and all the feedback I've gotten had been amazing. I hope to be hearing from you guys again too. Oh and for those of you who read Summer Home, I'm sorry but I don't think I'll be doing a sequel. I'm no good at those. Read my profile for more on that. Anyways, thanks a lot and well... the end.
