"Mom! Have you seen my shoes?" Patty yelled down the stairs
"Look under your bed!" Helen yelled up the stairs to her youngest daughter
"Come on Patty, we are going to be late!" Meg yelled to her sister.
"Well I couldn't find my shoe and I am always the one on time, just this once can't yo-"
"Girls, you are already late, get going!" Jack warned them
Meg rushed down the halls of East Catholic. Her eyes scanned the crowds for Roxanne or Sam.
"Rox!" She called out to her best friend that stood across the hall. "What's going on?" She asked, referring to the big crowd of people, as she reached Roxanne.
"I think there was a fight, something having to do with Sam." She informed Meg
"Is he okay?" Meg asked becoming concerned
"I think so." Roxanne said.
Meg looked out for Sam the rest of the day but did not see him. She became worried. She walked with Rox after school to the bus stop. They chatted about nothing the entire ride, until they reached bandstand.
Roxanne stood up to get off but Meg did not follow.
"Come on." Roxanne said
"I am actually going to go into Philly to check up on Sam."
"I'm sure that he is fine Meg, come on!"
"I just want to check up on him. I have been worried about him since what happened with his mom and all."
"Alright, you need me to cover for you?"
"No. I will meet you here after bandstand ends."
"Alright, say hi to Sam for me."
The bus driver gave them an annoyed look, they were slowing everything down.
~ Meg rapped on the Walkers door silently. She was nervous being there after the stares that she had received in the hall.
"Meg." Sam said opening up the door.
"Oh my gosh." Meg said.
Sam had a busted lip, and a black eye.
"What happened?"
"You shouldn't have come here Meg."
"I was worried about you." Meg said as Sam let her in.
"Well I am okay."
There was an awkward silence.
"So how you been?" Meg asked making friendly conversation
"Alright. You?"
"Alright."
"Have you heard from JJ?"
"Yeah. Training camp sounds tough." Meg said
"Maybe I should join the Marines. I survived Andy's left hook today." Sam said thoughtfully
"I would never let you." Meg said
Sam gave her a questioning glance.
"Do you know how nerve wracking it is to have JJ out there? Do you know how it would be to have two people I care about out there?" Meg confessed
Sam laughed.
"Well I don't know. I have always liked the hats."
Meg laughed
"Yeah, I have always been a little partial to the hats myself." She added to Sams thought
Meg saw Sam flinch. Him smiling had opened the cut in his lip back up.
"Ugh, you're bleeding. Sit down." Meg said leading him to a chair, rushing to the kitchen area to get a towel. "Here." She held the compress on his lip. Sams hand closed over hers. The two teens felt a rush of energy between the two of them at the touch.
Meg backed up as Sam held the towel on him lip.
"So are you ready to tell me what happened?"
"I gawt inta aw phigt." Sam slurred from behind the towel, causing Meg to laugh.
"I think I will let you explain when the swelling goes down."
At 6:00 Meg met Roxanne outside of bandstand.
"Told you I'd be here." Meg teased her friend
"What are you so happy about?"
"What do you mean?" Meg asked honestly
"I don't know. You just look very, . cheery."
"Do I have any reason not to be?" Meg asked turning to board the bus.
"I guess not." Roxanne said smiling to herself laughing at what Meg still did not recognize.
